Human-Computer Interaction

Anchored in a comprehension of user behavior and practical application, OptimalAI's researchers invent, design, and implement large-scale interactive systems for real-world applications. Our academic pursuits span a diverse array of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) fields, encompassing the development of predictive and intelligent user interface technologies, as well as software that seamlessly integrates into mobile and ubiquitous computing environments. We delve into the realms of social and collaborative computing, alongside pioneering work in interactive visualization and visual analytics. Central to our projects is the symbiotic relationship between machine learning and HCI, which manifests in a variety of applications. These include the creation of predictive user interfaces, recommendation systems for content, applications, and activities, advanced methodologies for text input and prediction on mobile devices, analytics that capture user engagement, tools for user interface development, and the intricate art of visualizing complex data in an interactive format. Our commitment lies in bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and its practical application, ensuring our contributions have a tangible impact on the field of HCI.
