论文摘要
智能手机中的文本输入仍然是移动HCI的关键要素。在实验室设置,主要使用转录任务以及通过野外(现场)实验的程度上,它已经在实验室设置中进行了广泛的研究。到目前为止,在实验室转录任务期间用户行为近似于实际使用,但尚不清楚。在本文中,我们提出了一项研究,该研究提供了证据,表明实验室文本进入行为与现实世界的使用显然可以区分。使用机器学习技术,我们表明可以准确识别进行文本输入会话的研究类型。我们发现的含义与文本输入中未来研究的设计有关,旨在通过虚拟智能手机键盘支持输入。
Text entry in smartphones remains a critical element of mobile HCI. It has been widely studied in lab settings, using primarily transcription tasks, and to a far lesser extent through in-the-wild (field) experiments. So far it remains unknown how well user behaviour during lab transcription tasks approximates real use. In this paper, we present a study that provides evidence that lab text entry behaviour is clearly distinguishable from real world use. Using machine learning techniques, we show that it is possible to accurately identify the type of study in which text entry sessions took place. The implications of our findings relate to the design of future studies in text entry, aiming to support input with virtual smartphone keyboards.
