Dwell Time Adaptive Dwelling according to Windows Interface Design Guide*, the action associated with the control is initiated when the mouse button is released if the pointer is dragged to another location, the control will return to its original state and undesirable click will be stopped for instance, the user can put cursor over icon or command button and choose it by clicking the mouse sometimes, clicks are undesirable or impossible (laser pointer, gaze / head / ‘brain’ control…) to provide productivity and easy access during communication with computer it is necessary a balance between flexibility of the dialogue structure, adaptability on each level of the interface, cognitive abilities of the person and limitations used interaction techniques semantic, syntactic, lexical * The Windows Interface. An Application Design Guide. Microsoft Press, Redmond, Washington, 1992. TAUCHI MMIG G. Evreinov 10_26 10.10.2003
Dwell Time the time is one of the most important critical parameters of the system feedback loop a normal time of simple visual-motor control task in accomplishing with the help of intact muscles of the finger is about 150-250 ms the time is progressively increased up to 1000 ms and more, if an additional semantic analysis or physical limitations take place to prevent wrong selection external (dwell) timer, mental and motor activities of the user should strictly be coordinated the feedback cues (highlighted areas) could play a role of strobe-signals to stimulate user behavior and to support, to stabilize temporal framework for rhythmically-alternating cognitive and motor activities if the system could individually and dynamically turn, dwell mode could be more flexible TAUCHI MMIG G. Evreinov 11_26 10.10.2003
Dwell Time how we could know what temporal window satisfies of user requirements and when it should be changed? menu pointing could be considered as temporal process or stimulus-dependent goal-directed behavior of the user; herewith, a behavior model includes a sequence of actions both on the user side – cognitive processing and motor actions, and procedures are within interface – highlighting or other verification about the state of a particular alternative the physical parameters of feedback signals may either facilitate synchronization of the interactive process or hinder performance in both cases, physical stimulus starts the motor reaction that could be measured based on real-time analysis the visual-motor reaction time, we could predict or optimize dwell interval*. * Bourhis, G., Pino, P.

Dwell Time selection highlighting the menu item selection selection Tthreshold RTi Time T0 T2 T1 Tdwell the temporal diagram of the algorithm for measuring the user performance through visual-motor reaction time and correction of the dwell interval T0 – the first variable interval, T1 – the second variable interval and T2 = T1 Tthresh. - dynamical threshold Tthresh. = T0 + T1 TAUCHI MMIG G. Evreinov 13_26 10.10.2003
Dwell Time after each highlighting the menu item, we can record a time of user reply in a kind of selection time besides that, we can count an average magnitude for AveRT on each 5 realizations now, if (AveRT < Tthresh.– dT) then we may decrease T0 on dT too that is, a new scan interval will equal Tdwell = (T0 + 2 T1) – dTor Tdwell = (T0 – dT) + 2 T1 demo4 TAUCHI MMIG G. Evreinov 14_26 10.10.2003
Dwell Time changing scan interval can occurred with equal probability in plus and minus, if user reactions are symmetrical regarding dynamical threshold Tthresh. if user changed typing speed, each user replies AveRT < Tthresh.and Tdwell are permanently decreased due to decreasing T0, therefore the time to change Tthresh. in a kind of criterion could be index of some number of dT for instance, if T0 have changed on ((-3) dT), the magnitude of Tthresh.may also be decreased, at least, on one half of this magnitude then, a new scan interval will equal Tdwell = (T0 – 3 dT) + 2 (T1– 3 dT/2) after changing dynamical threshold, probability of user replies in a field T2 will be higher and AveRT > Tthresh. this situation will lead, or not, to increasing T0 TAUCHI MMIG G.

Dwell Time after some kind of calibration the proposed algorithm will automatically keep dwell interval near convenient magnitude with given speed or increment dT adaptive temporal interval could be useful for many applications, which require of the periodic time correction in dependence on user performance, for instance, in the systems (head / eye / finger tracking) using dwell time to simulate mouse actions etc. TAUCHI MMIG G.
