CINCH a cooperatively designed marking interface for 3D pathway selection David Akers 17 September 2014
The Human Brain white matter
Pathway Selection DTI-Query [Akers et al. 2004, Sherbondy, et al. 2005]
Outline • Backgroundbrain imaging and pathway selection • Design ProcessWizard of Oz prototype • The CINCH Systemdemonstration and implementation details • Design Implicationsreflections on design process
An Interface Design Quandary How to develop a marking language that is both: Useful to scientists (solves their selection problems) Intuitive to scientists (matches their mental model)
Wizard of Oz Prototype User mode Wizard mode Designer simulates the effects, using a crude but functional interface Scientists invent their own marking operations
Wizard of Oz Prototype [ Live Demo ]
Marking Operations Invented shape matching touch surface intersection Selection modes: Add, Remove, Intersect
Design Principles Minimality Remove unnecessary parameters whenever possible. Visibility Marks should only affect pathways on the visible side of each cutting plane.
The CINCH Interface [ Demo Video ]
Details: Shape Match 3D pathway (projected) Gestural mark Distance metric: Mean closest points
Details: Grow/Shrink Distance matrix

CINCH In Use CINCH was evaluated using: Event logs Screen Captures Interviews Scientists self-reported 2-5 times speedup when using CINCH. CINCH has been adopted and is being used actively.
