The Aware Home, an Institute for People and Technology (IPaT) Living Lab, provides an authentic home environment in which to conduct research in the areas of: health and well-being, connected home, home security and resource management, and the future of digital media and entertainment at home. Common uses of the home include: 1. innovating the next home technology, 2. performing human subject studies of our research in a controlled environment, 3. testing installation of solutions before deploying into peoples‚ actual homes, such as those individuals enrolled in HomeLab.
What is the physical impact of working in non-office settings, and how can users be more sensitized to their postural comfort while in these environments?
Social media has quickly risen to prominence as a news source, yet lingering doubts remain about its ability to spread rumor and misinformation. Systematically studying this phenomenon, however, has been difficult due to the need to collect large-scale, unbiased data along with in-situ judgements of its accuracy. In this paper we present CREDBANK, a corpus designed to bridge this gap by systematically combining machine and human computation. Specifically, CREDBANK is a corpus of tweets, topics, events and associated human credibility judgements.
