We missed April’s announcement of “Best Papers” at the 2015 ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2015). Three had UW CSE ties:
Sangeet Swara: A Community-Moderated Voice Forum in Rural India, by UW CSE Ph.D. student Aditya Vashistha, MSR India researcher Ed Cutrell, the late UW CSE professor Gaetano Borriello, and MSR India researcher Bill Thies.
From User-Centered to Adoption-Centered Design: A Case Study of an HCI Research Innovation Becoming a Product, by University of Waterloo Management Sciences faculty member (and UW iSchool Ph.D. alum) Parmit Chilana, and UW iSchool faculty members (and UW CSE Adjunct faculty members) Andy Ko and Jake Wobbrock.
Unequal Representation and Gender Stereotypes in Image Search Results for Occupation, by UW CSE Ph.D. student Matthew Kay, UW CSE Ph.D. alum (and UMBC faculty member) Cynthia Matuszek, and UW HCDE faculty member (and UW CSE Adjunct faculty member) Sean Munson.
Congratulations!
