ABSTRACT
This document presents a brief overview of my doctoral research, which is focused on an approach to map a VUI to a GUI in order to increase the usability of graphical applications for users with motoric challenges. This is accomplished by creating a prototype that uses voice as an input modality for Scratch. Evaluation and assessment of the research will be performed through observation of children with motor disabilities using the tool. The research will be further generalized by creating a template for mapping a VUI to any GUI. My current research focus is summarized followed by the motivation for this research. Related work is described along with a problem statement and research goals. My dissertation status and expected contributions conclude this document.

Breaking-up is hard to do: partitioning information (or not) in over-the-phone, speech-recognition interactions
CHI EA '00: CHI '00 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsIn a controlled study, subjects using over-the-phone speech-recognition systems delivering multiple pieces of distinct information preferred the breakup of the presentation of information into multiple blocks (that is, the user heard some information, ...
A usability evaluation of the Google Home with non-native English speakers using the system usability scale
Advancements in multidisciplinary research have made voice user interfaces (VUIs) become a reality in both research and commercialisation. Although the existing research has indicated that VUIs are useful in people's daily lives (e.g., personal assistant),...
One-line GUI: minimized graphic user interface for interactive TV
OzCHI '13: Proceedings of the 25th Australian Computer-Human Interaction Conference: Augmentation, Application, Innovation, CollaborationIn this research, we have developed an interactive television (ITV) interface, which has different context than a conventional television. We assumed that people do not want to be disturbed of their watching experience by a large graphic user interface (...
