چکیده

Picking the best icons for a graphical user interface is difficult. We present a new method which, given several icon candidates representing functionality, selects a complete icon set optimized for comprehensibility and identifiability. These two properties are measured using human computation. We apply our method to a domain with a less established iconography and produce several icon sets. To evaluate our method, we conduct a user study comparing these icon sets and a designer-picked set. Our estimated comprehensibility score correlate with the percentage of correctly understood icons, and our method produces an icon set with a higher comprehensibility score than the set picked by an involved icon designer. The estimated identifiability score and related tests did not yield significant findings. Our method is easy to integrate in traditional icon design workflow and is intended for use by both icon designers, and clients of icon designers.

A New Feature Selection Technique Combined with ELM Feature Space for Text Classification

The aim of text classification is to classify the text documents into a set of pre-defined categories. But the complexity of natural languages, high dimensional feature space and low quality of feature selection become the main problem for text classification process. Hence, in order strengthen the classification technique, selection of important features, and consequently removing the unimport...

Input Device Selection and Interaction Configuration with ICON

This paper describes ICON, a novel editor designed to configure a set of input devices and connect them to actions into a graphical interactive application. ICON allows physically challenged users to connect alternative input devices and/or configure their interaction techniques according to their needs. It allows skilled users – graphic designers or musicians for example – to configure any ICO...

A hybrid filter-based feature selection method via hesitant fuzzy and rough sets concepts

High dimensional microarray datasets are difficult to classify since they have many features with small number ofinstances and imbalanced distribution of classes. This paper proposes a filter-based feature selection method to improvethe classification performance of microarray datasets by selecting the significant features. Combining the concepts ofrough sets, weighted rough set, fuzzy rough se...

Effects of training and representational characteristics in icon design

Icons are a very important component of graphical user interfaces. However, icon design is still predominantly artistic in nature and as a result icon selection is generally based on usability evaluations after a set of alternative icons are developed. This process tends to be time-consuming and costly. In this research, we address the issues of what should be depicted in an icon, given the fun...

Logistic Regression for Automatic Lexical Level Morphological Paradigm Selection for Konkani Nouns

Automatic selection of morphological paradigm for a noun lemma is necessary to automate the task of building morphological analyzer for nouns with minimal human interventions. Morphological paradigms can be of two types namely surface level morphological paradigms and lexical level morphological paradigms. In this paper we present a method to automatically select lexical level morphological par...
