on the Web can be labeled in a few months. Having proper labels associated with each image on the Web would allow for more accurate image search, improve the accessibility of sites (by providing descriptions of images to visually impaired individuals), and help users block inappropriate images. Our system

The creation of a complex web site is a thorny problem in. user interface design. In IJCAI '97, we challenged the AI community to address this problem by creating adaptive web sites. In response, we investigate the problem of index page synthesis — the automatic creation of pages

Abstract — This article presents a service robotic system for disabled people. SAM is a mobile platform that grasps any textured object in an apartment-like environment. The object grasping is realized with a robotic arm, mounted onto the mobile unit. Thanks to the stereo rig on the arm’s gripper

. That is why these interfaces should be adapted for them. This can be done either by using a standard method for all the application screens or by individualising the adaptation of each application. This makes it possible to optimise the manipulation of interfaces by blind people but it is complicated because

Due to the tremendously increasing popularity of the World-Wide Web, hypermedia is going to be the leading online information medium for some years to come and will most likely become the standard gateway for citizens to the "information highway". Already today, visitors of web sites

be aggregated and visualized in a zooming interface that shows the web pages people viewed. The visualization also shows the most common paths taken through the web site for a given task, as well as the optimal path for that task, as designated by the designer. This paper discusses the architecture of Web

Web browsers support secure online transactions, and provide visual feedback mechanisms to inform the user about security. These mechanisms have had little evaluation to determine how easily they are noticed and how effectively they are used. This paper describes a preliminary study conducted

Web content is consumed on devices with a significant variation in display resolution. Visualizing data is typically performed by extracting data from a database for transmission to the client and then visualizing it with a client-side Javascript library. A major challenge is to retrieve only

This paper describes new techniques for making HTML documents more accessible to all users. Since visually handicapped users have great difficulty accessing the Web, this discussion focuses on their special needs. We have developed a software to ensure that adaptation of documents is independent

of its power and credibility induce people to build their own systems of defence and representation around their identities, further de-legitimizing the state. However, the state does not disappear. It adapts and transforms itself. On the one hand, it builds partnerships between nation-states and shares
