ABSTRACT
It has become a common recommendation to computer interface designers that they should “Know the User” (e.g., Rubinstein and Hersh, 1984). This panel discussion will examine the issues that arise from this advice.

Classifying users: a hard look at some controversial issues
Special issue: CHI '86 Conference ProceedingsIt has become a common recommendation to computer interface designers that they should “Know the User” (e.g., Rubinstein and Hersh, 1984). This panel discussion will examine the issues that arise from this advice.
Identifying controversial issues and their sub-topics in news articles
PAISI'10: Proceedings of the 2010 Pacific Asia conference on Intelligence and Security InformaticsWe tackle the problem of automatically detecting controversial issues and their subtopics from news articles. We define a controversial issue as a concept that invokes conflicting sentiments or views and a subtopic as a reason or factor that gives a ...
