A beautiful day to the celebrate all the members of the ROC HCI Lab and their accomplishments.
In many traditional computer science classes, students acquire a specific set of technical skills such as programming or algorithm design. In Ehsan Hoque’s Human-Computer Interaction class, along with acquiring new technical skills, students spend time thinking creatively about computers and ways they can use computing to solve pressing problems in society.
The academy is an initiative of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), the world’s largest scientific and educational computing society, to enable “the next generation of researchers, practitioners, educators, and entrepreneurs to develop a coherent and influential voice that addresses challenging issues facing the field and society in general.”
Ehsan Hoque, a computer scientist at the University of Rochester, has been recognized as a leading innovator in human-computer interaction with a World Technology Award from the World Technology Network.
Ehsan Hoque, assistant professor of computer science, is in rare company. The editors of MIT Technology Review have named Hoque one of this year’s “innovators under 35”
“The goal is to develop a conferencing application that senses many aspects of human behavior to assess group dynamics,” explained Luis Nova, a rising junior in computer science who joined the group this summer as a Xerox fellow.

People often rank public speaking as the number one fear that they face. New cloud-based technology from researchers at the University of Rochester lets speakers polish and practice at home in front of their computer camera, while the analysis provides instant feedback about improvement.
Ehsan Hoque had just defended his PhD dissertation at MIT in 2013 when he returned to his desk and found a voice mail from DARPA, the federal Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
