  • A Special Section on Intelligent User Interfaces in Healthcare (IUIH)

    A concept of interface has evolved from the first appearance in the form of a command line interface to the established use of direct manipulation or WIMP (windows, icons, menus and pointing) interfaces in nearly all applications. Intelligent user interfaces (IUI) form a subfield of Human-Computer Interaction research. Optimal human-computer interactions are defined as ones where users are able to perform complex tasks more quickly...

  • Post-comatose patients with minimal consciousness tend to preserve reading comprehension skills but neglect syntax and spelling

    Publication

    - Scientific Reports - Year 2019

    Modern eye tracking technology provides a means for communication with patients suffering from disorders of consciousness (DoC) or remaining in locked-in-state. However, being able to use an eye tracker for controlling text-based contents by such patients requires preserved reading ability in the first place. To our knowledge, this aspect, although of great social importance, so far has seemed to be neglected. In the paper, we...
