Iโm at #ASSETS2025 in Denver to present our paper on the impacts of using generative AI to scaffold just-in-time (JIT) configuration of visual scene displays (VSDs) by novice communication partners! You can catch my presentation in Session 5B on Tuesday at 11:15 MDT.
Here are some highlights๐

Again, all mostly meaningless, but might help understand more about the shape of #chi2025 and broader academic publishing patters.
Don't know who needs to know this, but we came across really good, open source, free app for qualitative coding that works in the browser.
app.taguette.org
It is basically NVivo, but free, and good. Collaboration seems pretty effortless, akin to Overleaf of GDocs
White web page showing: CHI 2025 Paper Stats <decorative CHI 2025 logo in pink japanese style> Below are some potentially interesting statistics I have generated from the JSON file from the CHI 2025 program. I consider only 'full papers' here. There were a total of 1,249 accepted full papers, from a total of 5,014 submitted (24.9% accept rate). Presenting statistics like this is an idea I borrowed (stole) from whatthehci.com, which seems to no longer be updated. You can also check out some cool statistics for the conference on the official blog. All King's College London CHI Papers All British CHI papers All London CHI papers CHI papers by institution (rank) CHI papers by country (rank) CHI papers by city (rank) CHI papers by author (rank) Papers with *accessibility* and/or *disability* in the title or abstract Papers with *aphasia* in the title or abstract Papers with *large language model* in the title or abstract
#chi2025 statistics, summarising countries, institutions, labs and people at #chi2025. Also, there are some 'reading lists' based on (my) interests. Imperfect, but hopefully useful or interesting to someone: tdjneate.github.io/chi_stats/20...
