A Vision for AI-Driven Adaptation of Dynamic AR Content to Users and Environments

Augmented Reality (AR) is transforming the way we interact with virtual information in the physical world. By overlaying digital content in real-world environments, AR enables new forms of immersive and engaging experiences. However, existing AR systems often struggle to effectively manage the many interactive possibilities that AR presents. This vision paper speculates on AI-driven approaches for adaptive AR content placement, dynamically adjusting to user movement and environmental changes. By leveraging machine learning methods, such a system would intelligently manage content distribution between AR projections integrated into the external environment and fixed static content, enabling seamless UI layout and potentially reducing users' cognitive load. By exploring the possibilities of AI-driven dynamic AR content placement, we aim to envision new opportunities for innovation and improvement in various industries, from urban navigation and workplace productivity to immersive learning and beyond. This paper outlines a vision for the development of more intuitive, engaging, and effective AI-powered AR experiences.

Knowledge State Networks for Effective Skill Assessment in Atomic Learning

The goal of this paper is to introduce a new framework for fast and effective knowledge state assessments in the context of personalized, skill-based online learning. We use knowledge state networks - specific neural networks trained on assessment data of previous learners - to predict the full knowledge state of other learners from only partial information about their skills. In combination with a matching assessment strategy for asking discriminative questions we demonstrate that our approach leads to a significant speed-up of the assessment process - in terms of the necessary number of assessment questions - in comparison to standard assessment designs. In practice, the presented methods enable personalized, skill-based online learning also for skill ontologies of very fine granularity without deteriorating the associated learning experience by a lengthy assessment process.
