Multivariate geospatial data visualization often relies on multiple coordinated views, where color can be used to either link views or encode data attributes. Encoding spatial locations through color can reveal patterns in non-spatial visualizations, yet most applications of colormaps focus on high-dimensional attribut...
Traditional digital pen interfaces use menu buttons to change the pen mode, which results in time and cognitive load spent on round-trip interactions and mode errors from tapping small mode selection buttons. This work presents the Magic Pen, a technique which uses machine learning to automatically switch between digit...
Researchers often read before they can articulate what they are looking for. As AI increasingly mediates scholarly search and synthesis, understanding and preserving the idiosyncratic judgments guiding early exploration become important. We call these evolving orientations scholarly sensibilities. To understand curiosi...
Digital sleep technologies make tracking accessible, yet users often struggle to interpret what changes in their sleep mean. Behavioral sleep medicine addresses this through guided discovery, helping patients develop personal interpretations rather than simply receiving explanations. To bring this to everyday tracking,...

Although critical AI literacy has emerged as an important educational goal, the construct remains conceptually broad and insufficiently specified for guiding students' day-to-day interactions with AI. This study examines how students critically evaluated AI-generated content. Drawing on an analysis of students' chatbot...
Wearable devices capture physiological and behavioral data with increasing fidelity, but the psychological context shaping these outcomes is difficult to recover from sensor data alone, limiting the utility of passive sensing for digital health goals such as early detection of distress, personalized intervention, and t...
EEG foundation models (EEG-FMs) have been evaluated predominantly on clean, in-distribution accuracy, demonstrating modest gains over supervised baselines and weak frozen representations. This study examines whether these conclusions hold beyond clean accuracy by evaluating six EEG-FMs and a supervised baseline across...
Generative agent societies simulate people with assigned roles, preferences and relationships. As agents exchange arguments and choose partners, they can revise their positions and reorganise discussion. Understanding these changes requires examining what they accept and how they continue to interact. Stance-change sco...
Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) increasingly incorporate explainable reasoning for emotion understanding. However, reasoning based mainly on observable affective cues can reduce emotion understanding to superficial cue-label associations, giving rise to the Clever Hans effect. Such shortcuts become unre...
As leading LLMs improve on capability evaluations, their limitations in producing creative outputs on design tasks remain insufficiently characterised. Our work introduces Design Creativity Bench, a benchmark that evaluates diversity and appropriateness in UI designs. It measures distinctiveness among models on the sam...
Exploratory data analysis (EDA) is rarely open-ended in practice: analysts work from high-level domain questions toward the concrete analyses that can answer them, prioritizing directions with domain knowledge and prior hypotheses. Large language models (LLMs) can supply such knowledge, but their responses are unstruct...
How might AI alter how we understand and experience the self? This scoping review analyzes 102 papers to examine how the self is defined in the field of human-computer interaction (HCI), how AI-self relationships are conceptualized, and what risks emerge when AI becomes entangled with selfhood. Our synthesis makes thre...
AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line. The post Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit appeared first o…

Professor Paris Smaragdis develops computers with superhuman hearing for applications like speech recognition, music understanding, and environmental monitoring.
During the School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences’ 75th Anniversary Symposium, President Sally Kornbluth said “MIT has never needed your particular insight and guidance more than we do now.”
Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
“X-Hinges” helps design and 3D print items like lamps and gloves with an interactive twist: automatically embedded sensors that perceive and adaptively respond to human contact.
