Human-oriented Information Systems

KINOSHITA Yuichiro
Course content
The course covers techniques for realising human-centred information systems. Specifically, methods related to the quantification of human sensitivity and emotions, and the measurement, analysis and modeling of human behaviour. In addition, case studies of systems and interaction methods that utilise this information are discussed.
Purpose of class
In this course, students acquire knowledge for measuring and analysing human sensitivities, emotions and behaviour, considering psychological and physiological aspects, as a basis for designing and developing human-centred systems. In addition, students will learn basic directions, applied technologies and case studies related to human-centred information systems.
Goals and objectives
  1. Be able to explain the methods involved in quantifying human sensitivities and emotions and measuring human behaviour
  2. Be able to analyse quantified human sensitivities/emotions and measured behaviour using appropriate methods
  3. Be able to explain methods for modelling human sensitivity, emotion and behaviour
  4. Be able to explain examples of systems and interaction methods that utilise information on human sensitivity, emotion and/or behaviour

Evaluation method and criteria
- The evaluation will be based on the quiz in class, the report of the project in class, and the student presentation of papers.
- Students who have been absent from the class five times or more will be considered to have withdrawn from the course, and their grade will not be evaluated.

The passing criteria (60%) include the ability to to explain the methods for measuring, analysing and modelling human emotions, feelings and behaviour, to write a report analysing the subjective evaluation data in the correct way, and to give a presentation in which the content of the thesis is correctly read.
