| [HCI] Advanced Design of Interactive Systems |
|---|
| Coordinator : Wendy Mackay |
| This course follows the HCI Bootcamp (Design of Interactive Systems), with an emphasis on redesign. Students will work in groups of three or four to design, evaluate and redesign an interactive system, represented as a video prototype. The goal is to significantly improve the initial design, based on input from users and other members of the class. Students will learn a variety of more advanced techniques, including co-adaptive instruments, interactive thread, participatory design workshops, cultural and technology probes, branching scenarios, generative walkthroughs, structured observation, peer interviewing, and alternative ways to present and explore a design space. All in-class and homework exercises are required to complete the final project, so class attendance and participation is essential. Grades are based on in-class and homework exercises as well as presentation of a final video prototype of each project, presented to and evaluated by an external jury. |

| [HCI] Advanced Immersive Interactions |
| Coordinator : H. Nguyen, N. Ladevèze, J. Vézien |
| This module aims to provide students with advanced knowledge on last trend and innovative interactive techniques in the eXtended Reality (XR) domain for students who want to be a project manager or a researcher in this field. This module includes a set of 7 lecture sessions covering all mandatory aspects of multi-sensorimotor interactions for a fully immersive experience in virtual reality or between real and virtual worlds. Transversal knowledge about perceptual and cognitive issues which appear in XR, such as immersion, realism, presence, cybersickness will be also addressed. The students will have to conduct an advanced XR project. From an end-user oriented expression of interests (either from their own focus of interest or from a list of typical applications provided by the teachers), a team of 3 to 4 students will have to choose the adapted XR hardware and software, to perform a team implementation and to present their work. This project will have to combine at least 2 of the 7 topics presented during the lectures. Expected delivery: Slides and report presenting their project, the justification of design choices, a self-criticism of their solution/implementation, and a demonstration in front of the class. The project implementation will use the XR facilities of a dedicated tutorial room, and/or possibly some of the advanced equipment of the DIGISCOPE network. |

| [HCI] Creative Design |
| Coordinator : Fdili Alaoui Sarah |
| This course requires students to read, reflect on a selection of authors’ ideas, and then share their findings with the class. Weekly preparation for class includes a careful reading of all the assigned texts and short reading reports of maximum 200 words for each paper. The weekly readings will collectively provide a conceptual toolkit for the design of creative interactive art works. When reading an article, students need to look for the “big picture” and important concepts that will inform their own work on the design of interactive artwork. Their task in this class is to identify and reflect on these high level concepts. They will be useful as both scholarly citations and as functional design tools for interactive works of art. Students then need to design an interactive artifact that instantiate one or two theoretical concepts being discussed in the class. The artwork must be digital and interactive. The outcome of the classe will be shared during an afternoon exhibition of students work. |

| [HCI] Design of Interactive Systems 1 |
| Coordinator : Wendy Mackay |
| Students will learn a principled approach to rapid prototyping of interactive systems, with an emphasis on iterative, cross-disciplinary design techniques. Lectures discuss the scientific and design-based foundations of participatory design. Students will work in small groups, applying these principles in a series of hands-on exercises that involve finding out about users, generating novel ideas, creating rapid prototypes and evaluating multiple design alternatives. Specific techniques include: critical incident interviews, video brainstorming, design spaces, paper and video prototyping, interaction tables, simple experiments, and design walkthroughs. The emphasis is on learning rapid prototyping techniques that produce design artifacts, which in turn support further design iterations. All in-class and homework exercises are required to complete the final project, so class attendance and participation is essential. Grades are based on in-class and homework exercises as well as presentation of a final video prototype of each project, presented to and evaluated by an external jury. |

| Coordinator : Michel Beaudouin-Lafon |
| Human-Computer Interaction addresses the design, development and evaluation of interactive systems. This area is quickly expanding as the number and diversity of users, devices, on-line services and available information increases. For example, up to 80% of the development cost of creating an interactive application is typically devoted to the user interface alone. This course introduces students to the foundations of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), emphasizing its multi-disciplinary aspect. It successively covers a brief history of HCI, human factors and psychology of HCI, the design process of interactive systems, a review of interaction styles, with an emphasis on graphical interaction, and an overview of models and theories for HCI. |

| [HCI] Gesture and Mobile Interaction |
| Coordinator : Giovanna Varni |
Gesture is a major input modality of interfaces. Users indeed can interact with machines through a wide variety of gestures and movements: from deterministic and specific ones such as finger tapping on a touch screen to expressive whole-body movements acted spontaneously. Despite their diversity, gestural interfaces have as common ground the human body with its capabilities and limitation. This course is aimed at providing students with essential information on gestural interfaces from their design to their evaluation. A particular focus will be on the implementation technologies used to build such interfaces. The students will have the opportunity to complement their knowledge of more “traditional” interfaces discovering a novel rapidly evolving field of HCI. This course will cover several topics including among the others:

| [HCI] Interactive Information Visualization |
| Coordinator : Petra Isenberg, Anastasia Bezerianos |
| In recent years, we have seen information visualization tools receive more general adoption and integration in media, business, science, journalism, and many other fields. Information visualizations are used as essential tools for information analysis, exploration, or storytelling. This is in part the case because visual displays of information have several benefits. Looking at visual encodings of data has been shown to reduce search time, enhance detection of anticipated or unanticipated patterns, enable perceptual inference operations and hypothesis formulation, help the monitoring of changing data, and help data exploration by providing a manipulable medium. This course gives an overview of the field of information visualization. It involves a mixture of lectures, design exercises, programming assignments, and paper presentations. Students are expected to participate in class discussions and complete their assignments on time. |

| [HCI] Interactive Machine Learning |
| Coordinator : Baptiste Caramiaux and Jules Françoise |
| Machine learning based technology is now ubiquitous to many services and softwares that are used by humans on a daily basis. The common view of such technology is a black box that requires data only. However, humans developers and users contribute significantly in their design. A growing community at the intersection of Machine Learning and Human Computer Interaction seeks for interactive solutions in machine learning with the goal of improving the system performance, reducing the biases inherent to any machine learning systems, or offering explanations. The course starts with the basics of machine learning. Then we will focus on different approaches of putting human in the loop. We will review the seminal work in the field and do hands-on sessions via a software library developed for the class. The course is evaluated on project. |

| Coordinator : F. Vernier and V. Araya |
| The objective of this course is to learn how to implement a web application where the client part runs on a mobile device (phone, tablet) and the server part is classically centralized and shared by several devices. The development of the client part takes into account the specificities of interaction of mobile devices (variable orientation, multi-touch screen) and enables the use of mobility data (compass, spatial positioning, accelerometers). Finally we address the use of complex and rich display APIs (canvas, webgl, mapbox-gl) used to implement interfaces dedicated to group mobility. |

| Coordinator : Anastasia Bezerianos, J. Vézien |
| In this class we discuss "beyond-the-desktop" interaction, where visualization and interaction take place in the environment of the user, rather than through the traditional screen, mouse and keyboard. In particular, we cover the topic of mixed reality and augmented reality systems, which visually mix real and virtual objects; and that of tangible interaction, which moves interaction with online information to the objects around us and to the physical environment. We present a combination of techniques and devices to help augment the environment, such as spatial tracking and 3D visualization, mobile phones, glasses, hand-held projectors, etc. And a number of approaches to interacting with the environment that exploit the characteristics of physical objects or physical space, such as work on tangible objects, augmented paper, ambient displays, on-body interaction, interaction with large surfaces such as walls and tables, ubiquitous computing, etc. |

| [HCI] Serious games |
| Coordinator : Ouriel Grynszpan, Jules Françoise |
| Since the advent of personalized computers, the usage of digital technologies has dramatically evolved. The field of Human-Computer Interactions is not restricted to the working world anymore. It now encompasses a wide variety of applications including leisure, social interactions, sports, rehabilitation and education. The goal is not only to help people perform a given task, but to have an enduring effect on them that can enhance their quality of life. This module seeks to acquaint students with the notion of serious games and the basics of human learning mechanisms that are at stake (e.g. learning theory, cerebral plasticity). The module includes lectures on the design of adaptive software that enable personalized training. Advanced methodological techniques are introduced to provide multimodal learning experience to the user (e.g. movement-based games). Students are also trained on evidence-based evaluation methods that are important to prove the effectiveness of serious games. Practical applications of serious games are presented as illustrations throughout the course, especially in the fields of mental health (e.g. cognitive rehabilitation) and sports (e.g. exergames). The course is evaluated on group projects that involve students in researching the literature, designing and prototyping a serious game. |

| [HCI] Studio Art Science |
| Coordinator : S. Fdili Alaoui |
| This is an interdisciplinary creative education program, in collaboration between Paris Saclay University, the diagonal Saclay and the Center Pompidou. It is a course on the design and implementation of experimental arts and sciences projects, led by a trio composed of two scientists and an artist. Participants in this course will benefit from a practical and theoretical framework for the realization of projects combining science and / or technology and art. They will discover the collections of the Pompidou Center, guided by an artist. They will discover design methods based on experience and will have the opportunity on the one hand to develop their perceptual, cognitive and aesthetic sensitivity and on the other hand to deepen advanced technical and technological concepts, such as augmented reality, virtual reality, interactive and immersive spaces, sensors etc. They will be able to develop their imagination to design a work that integrates both a scientific and an aesthetic approach from their own personal stories. The supervisors will guide the participants in formulating the intentions of their project in the form of short documentations that describe, analyze and discuss their conceptual, technical and critical choices. They will also accompany the resulting experiences of the participants and the spectators. Thus, the participants will have the responsibility to conceive a work based on an original concept and integrate a current scientific approach. The course is conceived with the idea of becoming an annual meeting with artists and works from the collection of the National Museum of Modern Art at the Centre Pompidou as well as an opportunity to initiate projects between students and scientific disciplines. Students benefit each time from a theoretical and practical support to carry out the realization, production and diffusion of their project. Students will have the opportunity to share their experience during an interdisciplinary research meeting “to be done" at the JACES and the Center Pompidou. |

| [HCI] Virtual Humans |
| Coordinator : J-C. Martin |
| Social interactions are becoming increasingly important in Human-Computer Interactions. Many systems involve virtual characters endowed with social interaction capabilities and the possibility to display non verbal expressions such as facial expressions, gaze and gestures (video games, virtual worlds, virtual e-coaches for health applications, animation, digital arts, pedagogical agents, on-line assistants, virtual patients for training doctors). This module presents research in modeling, animating, and rendering realistic and expressive autonomous virtual humans. It introduces the theoretical foundations of multimodal communication in relation with theories and models from Psychology that are adapted to inform the design of computational models of interactive and expressive virtual humans. This includes theories, models and software architectures for managing emotions, personality, facial expressions, gestures and bodily interactions. Design frameworks, software architectures and integration of these social dimensions in HCI design are presented. Applications in relevant fields of multimodal and social interaction are presented as use cases: virtual coaches and persuasive technologies for sport, physical activities, nutrition, stress management, personal and corporate well being ; pedagogical agents for training social skills. On-going PhD theses on Virtual Humans are presented. The module is organised as interactive sessions. Regular hands-on sessions are organised and involve a platform for designing 3D interactive virtual agents (MS Windows). Homework includes: reading scientific articles, watching relevant TED like videos about fundamentals and applications of social interaction and virtual humans design. Project: a general topic is provided (eg. virtual human for eCoaching) over which students (by groups of 2 or 3) have to design and implement an interactive virtual human and report their progress by the step-by-step writing of a scientific article (tips are provided on how to write a scientific article). Feedback is provided by the teacher all along the project. |
