Intelligent User Interfaces : Trends and application areas

This report outlines trends and application areas within the research field of intelligent user interfaces(IUIs) from 2010-2018. The purpose of the report is to give an overview of the IUI research area andpoint out particular subfields that have been given attention in the recent years, indicating possible trendsfor future research. Our report indicates that the field of IUIs is very broad, resulting in rather diverseresearch trends within the area. However, general trends could be identified, such as an increasing interest inbetter human-machine decision-making, where strategies for explaining the automatic reasoning are beinginvestigated together with ways of improving the trustworthiness of the systems and their possible adaptationsto individuals’ needs. The report also outlines research on multimodal interactions, adaptivity and humanrobotcollaboration, addressing challenges such as increased human workload, unobtrusiveness, privacy andmultiparty communication
