Human-Centric Computing (HCC) is the science of decoding human behaviors. HCC seeks to provide a computational account of aspects of human behavior ranging from interaction patterns to individual emotion expression using techniques drawn from both signal processing and machine learning. However, the complexity of this new domain necessitates alterations to common data collection, modeling techniques and computing capability (including cloud computing). In this laboratory, we will cover the techniques that underlie the state-of-the-art systems in the human-centric computing field. Students will develop a critical understanding of HCC systems ranging from data collection to human state recognition to feedback. The course evaluation will include weekly homework and a final creative team project. The project topics include: Assistive Devices for People who are Blind and Visually Impaired State Estimation for AR/VR Devices/Applications and Self-Drving Cars Deep Learning Sensing and Communication on Mobile Devices
