The Evaluation of Adaptable Multimodal System Outputs
Erin Marie Panttaja, David Reitter, Fred A. Cummins · 2004
Adaptable multimodal systems are difficult to test. We present a methodology for evaluating parallel multimodal output which is generated in response to a specific set of user, device, and situation constraints. We focus on the generation of multiple variants of user interfaces for small-screen graphical devices with natural language voice output, within a system we term UI on the Fly. Our methodology tests any system that ranks potential output variants using a fitness function.
