A Call to Promote Soft Skills in Software Engineering [PDF]

Psychology and Cognitive Sciences, Editorial, 4(1):e1-e3, 2018, 2018

Paradox of integration -- a computational model [PDF]

CHI 2022 Workshop InContext: Futuring User-Experience Design Tools, 2022
Studying how social contexts shape technology interactions and how we experience them is hard.

From Facial Expression Recognition to Interpersonal Relation Prediction [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
Interpersonal relation defines the association, e.g., warm, friendliness, and dominance, between two or more people. Motivated by psychological studies, we investigate if such fine-grained and high-level relation traits can be characterized and quantified from face images in the wild. We address this challenging problem by first studying a deep network

Modeling interpersonal influence on different sentimental polarities is a fundamental problem in opinion formation and viral marketing. There has not been seen an effective solution for learning sentimental influences from users' behaviors yet. Previous related works on information propagation directly define interpersonal influence between each pair ...

Interpersonally shared physiological dynamics are increasingly argued to underlie rapport, empathy and even team performance. Inspired by the model of interpersonal synergy, we critically investigate the presence, temporal development, possible mechanisms and impact of shared interpersonal heart rate dynamics during individual and collective creative ...
