Accelerating communication for users with severe motor and speech impairments, in particular eye-gaze-based augmentative alternative (AAC) device users, is a longstanding area of research. However, observation such users' over extended durations has been limited. This case study presents the real-world experience developing field-testing tool observing curating gaze typing-based an eye-gaze AAC user amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). With intent to observe develop technology accelerate...
Accelerating text input in augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) is a long-standing area of research with bearings on the quality life individuals profound motor impairments. Recent advances large language models (LLMs) pose opportunities for re-thinking strategies enhanced entry AAC. In this paper, we present SpeakFaster, consisting an LLM-powered user interface highly-abbreviated form, saving 57% more actions than traditional predictive keyboards offline simulation. A pilot...
Finding ways to accelerate text input for individuals with profound motor impairments has been a long-standing area of research. Closing the speed gap augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices such as eye-tracking keyboards is important improving quality life individuals. Recent advances in neural networks natural language pose new opportunities re-thinking strategies user interfaces enhanced text-entry AAC users. In this paper, we present SpeakFaster, consisting large models...
