Observing the User Experience, 2nd Edition
Morgan Kaufmann
Since the publication of the first edition, the business of user research has exploded with new technologies and new techniques. This second edition takes those changes into account with extensive revisions to existing topics. It also adds entirely new material on observational research, mobile usability, diary studies, remote research, and cross-cultural and multilingual projects.

Smart Things: Ubiquitous Computing User Experience Design
Morgan Kaufmann
See publicationThe world of smart shoes, appliances, and phones is already here, but the practice of user experience (UX) design for ubiquitous computing is still relatively new. Smart Things gives its readers both the "why" and the "how" of design in a post-web world.

Generative design using style grammars
Issued US-11853653-B2
When working with Generative AI tools you want to constrain them so they generate things that are specific to your organization's style, whether it's rigid brand guidelines (like the BMW grill) or just this season's color palette. We came up with a mechanism to do that, which we called Style Grammars.

Training generative models for generating stylized content
Filed US20240378858A1
he system obtains a plurality of training images, groups the training images into a plurality of image clusters, and for each respective image cluster, generates a respective set of instances of the generative machine-learning model based on the training images in the image cluster.

Systems and methods for media content generation
Filed US20240242428A1
The present disclosure provides a system that supports generation of media content based on textual inputs. The system is designed to receive text and other forms of content as input. The text input may be amplified using one or more artificial intelligence techniques to produce modified text content. The text content is then processed using an artificial intelligence algorithm configured to perform text-to-image processing to produce image content.
