SUMMARY:CIS Seminar: "Human-Centered Interactive Systems for Configuring\, Extending\, and Developing AI Applications"
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are emerging and affecting our lives in many aspects. However\, the majority of individuals are merely users of AI with little capability to adapt AI to their own long-tail tasks\, preferences\, and interests that are not covered by the existing AI solutions. Democratizing AI to empower the individuals to create\, configure\, and extend AI-powered systems requires a new human-centered approach to guide the users to provide more effective inputs to the AI systems\, and to enable the systems to better understand and generalize from inputs in the user’s natural style. In this talk\, I will present my research on designing\, developing\, and studying (1) a new smartphone interactive task learning agent that empowers end-users to teach new tasks\, concepts\, and automation rules using the combination of natural language instructions and demonstrations on existing third-party app GUIs; and (2) a new developer tool that allows developers without natural language processing expertise to bootstrap a task-oriented conversational bot from existing mobile apps using the task model extracted from the app interaction traces. These projects examplify my approach of combining human-centered methods with AI techniques to create new novel interfaces and system capabilities that facilitate effective human-AI collaboration\, lowering the barriers to customizing\, extending\, and developing AI applications for end-users and non-expert developers.
