This year’s award winners
This year, Northeastern is taking home one Best Paper award and two Honorable Mentions. The Best Paper winner goes to Khoury distinguished post-doctoral fellow Vedant Das Swain; CoE Dean, professor, and Khoury courtesy appointee Gregory D. Abowd; and their colleagues at the Georgia Institute of Technology and the University of Chicago for Sensible and Sensitive AI for Worker Wellbeing: Factors that Inform Adoption and Resistance for Information Workers, which evaluated the benefits and harms of hypothetical passive-sensing (PSAI) tools.
“In our previous study, workers revealed tensions where (they) worried … these applications might become surveillance tools rather than personal aids,” Swain said. “That made us wonder, how do we design these sensing AI to maximize value for workers while minimizing the harms?”
The honorable mentions were awarded to:
- Barriers to Photosensitive Accessibility in Virtual Reality, a study on the risks and issues of VR technology for people with photosensitive epilepsy and recommendations for low-cost safety improvements, with three Khoury researchers among its four authors: Laura South, Caglar Yildirim, and Michelle A. Borkin.
- Odds and Insights: Decision Quality in Exploratory Data Analysis Under Uncertainty, in which researchers (including Khoury professor Michael Correll) performed a crowdsourced study to measure decision-making quality in visual analytics.
