Hi everyone, This Monday for the upcoming Accessibility Lunch Seminar, we  
have Prof. Nam Wook Kim from Boston College joining us in-person as a guest  
speaker. Join us at noon in NSH 4201. Please find the talk details below:  
Talk Title: Designing for All: Elevating Accessibility in Data  
Visualization Abstract: Data visualizations have become a widely used tool  
for communicating important information in our society. However, for  
individuals with blindness or low vision (BLV) who predominantly use screen  
readers to navigate the web, the inaccessibility of these visualizations  
can perpetuate information inequity. In this talk, I will start by  
highlighting a notable gap in the field, despite the recent rapid  
advancements in data visualizations. I will explore the current challenges  
and problems present in the practice of data visualization accessibility  
and discuss how we can address them by developing enhanced accessibility  
methods. I will present the findings from our interviews with visualization  
practitioners and provide insights from our content analysis of existing  
visualizations in the wild and the tools used to create them. Moving  
forward, I will introduce our multi-modal approach to visualization  
accessibility, which relies on LLM-powered question and answering as a key  
element, built upon insights from empirical studies involving BLV  
individuals. I will conclude by envisioning a future where accessibility is  
seamlessly integrated into the data visualization experience. Relevant  
Papers: 1. VizAbility: Multimodal Accessible Data Visualization with  
Keyboard Navigation and Conversational Interaction (UIST 23) 2. Beyond  
alternative text and tables: Comparative analysis of visualization tools  
and accessibility methods (EuroVis 23) 3. Visualization Accessibility in  
the Wild: Challenges Faced by Visualization Designers (CHI 22) 4.  
Accessible Visualization: Design Space, Opportunities, and Challenges  
(EuroVis 21) Looking forward to this interesting talk! Thanks and regards,  
Peya

Hi everyone, For the upcoming Accessibility Lunch Seminar, we have Josh  
Myers-Dean joining us in-person as a guest speaker: Abstract: Image  
segmentation is the task of assigning a category to each pixel in an image  
and is crucial in various applications, from image editing to enhancing  
accessibility through navigation and image exploration. Existing  
interactive segmentation algorithms face two main limitations: they often  
necessitate knowledge of the user's preferred selection tools or explicit  
instructions on inclusion and exclusion criteria, leading to a cumbersome  
user experience. This is particularly problematic in creative workflows,  
where segmentation is merely a preliminary step. Furthermore, automatic  
segmentation algorithms often struggle with granularity, typically halting  
at part-level segmentations due to lack of available data. This granularity  
issue overlooks a critical desire within the BLV community for algorithms  
capable of offering detailed information upon request [StanglAssets18],  
limiting the potential to enhance automatic magnification tools or  
descriptions when shopping online. Josh will discuss approaches to  
redefining the interactive segmentation problem to accommodate diverse user  
needs. Additionally, he will introduce his efforts in developing a dataset  
designed to support subpart granularity, aiming to enable algorithms that  
offer hierarchical segmentations and in-depth image details. He will also  
explore potential opportunities these advancements present for improving  
accessibility applications. Speaker Bio: Josh Myers-Dean is a 3rd year  
Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Colorado Boulder  
working with Danna Gurari. Josh earned a B.S. in Computer Science from  
Western Washington University and has interned with the Pacific Northwest  
National Laboratory, Adobe Research, and the Allen Institute for Artificial  
Intelligence. His research focuses on creating efficient, user-friendly  
segmentation algorithms to reduce friction in pipelines that rely on image  
segmentation, such as image editing, as well as creating algorithms that  
can segment a region at multiple layers of granularity. His work has been  
published in computer vision venues such as WACV and his work is supported  
by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. Join us at noon in NSH 4201.  
Looking forward to this interesting talk! Thanks and regards, Peya

Hi everyone, For the upcoming Accessibility Lunch, Joon will present his  
CHI 2024 practice talk : Title "It?s the only thing I can trust?:  
Envisioning LLM Use by Autistic Workers for Communication Assistance  
Abstract: Autistic adults often experience stigma and discrimination at  
work, leading them to seek social communication support from coworkers,  
friends, and family despite emotional risks. Large language models (LLMs)  
are increasingly considered an alternative. In this work, we investigate  
the phenomenon of LLM use by autistic adults at work and explore  
opportunities and risks of LLMs as a source of social communication advice.  
We asked 11 autistic participants to present questions about their own  
workplace-related social difficulties to (1) a GPT-4-based chatbot and (2)  
a disguised human confederate. Our evaluation shows that participants  
strongly preferred LLM over confederate interactions. However, a coach  
specializing in supporting autistic job-seekers raised concerns that the  
LLM was dispensing questionable advice. We highlight how this divergence in  
participant and practitioner attitudes reflects existing schisms in HCI on  
the relative privileging of end-user wants versus normative good and  
propose design considerations for LLMs to center autistic experiences. Join  
us at noon in NSH 4201. Looking forward to this interesting talk! Thanks  
and regards, Peya

> As part of our work with AccessADVANCE, DO-IT staff is facilitating a four week book club on Crip Spacetime: Access, Failure, and Accountability in Academic Life by Margaret Price. The book explores the competitive, productivity-focused realm of academia by sharing the everyday experiences of disabled academics. The book club discussions will center institutional change to make academic careers more welcoming and accessible to faculty with disabilities.

Drawing on more than three hundred interviews and survey responses, Price demonstrates that individual accommodations-the primary way universities address accessibility-actually impede access rather than enhance it. She argues that the pains and injustices encountered by academia's disabled workers result in their living and working in realities different from nondisabled colleagues: a unique experience of space, time, and being that Price theorizes as "crip spacetime." She explores how disability factors into the exclusionary practices found in universities, with multiply marginalized academics facing the greatest harms. Highlighting the knowledge that disabled academics already possess about how to achieve sustainable forms of access, Price boldly calls for the university to move away from individualized models of accommodation and toward a new system of collective accountability and care."

Subject: Neurodiversity Conference at NU
Hi Amy and Andy,

I'd like to reach out to you regarding the summer Northeast Region Neurodiversity Conference we are planning in August. I'm very excited that Amy has agreed to be a panelist for one of our discussions! I'd love to be able to invite CMU Engineering faculty, staff, DEI practitioners and anyone else you think would be interested in attending.  I've included a link to the conference website and a quick blurb that could be used to communicate an invitation.

https://newenglandhigheredconference2024.sites.northeastern.edu/


Conference overview

The conference is based on the principles of the Neurodiversity Support Initiative advocated by Northeastern University College of Engineering. A kickoff hybrid (in person/virtual/asynchronous) conference as a precursor to the development of a ?Northeast Region Higher Education Neurodiversity Coalition? (NEHENC) through which higher education scholars and practitioners can gather as a community to explore and share best practices on how to improve educational and professional outcomes for Neurodivergent Engineering Students. The conference will allow participants to receive training and gain an understanding of neurodiversity, before delving into specific sessions.

	accessibillity
Message-ID: <IA2P223MB1197D35EB25FA65F5A5F27EBF6122@IA2P223MB1197.NAMP223.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM>

Hi all,

Patrick Carrington and I are going to teach 05-499/899 next Fall (F24), a project-oriented course we?re creating that celebrates accessibility.

Would you like to be our TA? We?re looking for someone who cares about the disability community and wants to help others learn how to work with them to make great accessible systems for them.

If you?re interested, please let us know!

Andrew and Patrick



Course: Celebrating Accessibility

Description: This course celebrates ability, disability, and accessibility. It introduces students to the theory, history, policy, and practice of accessibility and inclusion in computing. Course readings will explore relevant concepts from disability studies, accessibility, human-computer interaction, and design methods. Students will develop critical perspectives on issues of representation, identity, visibility, and inclusion. Students will also learn about organizations focused on accessibility and inclusion and examine various approaches to creating accessible and inclusive computing systems. Students will leave the course with a sense of what it takes to both create and use accessible computing systems for people with visible and invisible disabilities. This is a practice-oriented course, and students will work in multidisciplinary teams to brainstorm, develop, and evaluate some kind of tool or system with people with disabilities.

Subject: [Access Lunch] Advice on recruiting locally?
Message-ID: <CAGWyQc-zAV8FiLx3kdzqWJ9=in5JNyxsvTo-rTFTC7e6ZHxHpg@mail.gmail.com>

Hey accessibility lunch folks,

I hope you're all doing well (considering we are at the end of the semester
and many of y'all are likely gearing up for CHI, among everything else).

I have been trying to recruit blind folks locally for a study and have been
having a pretty hard time. Do any of you have any advice on this? Or do you
know anyone who might have advice? I've reached out to LAMP, BVRS, Golden
Triangle Council for the Blind, and even a couple folks I know directly.
But I just can't get anyone to actually share the recruitment materials
around.

Are there any additional avenues you'd recommend? I've heard that the AFB
or some other national-sized org has a mailing list for these things that
you can pay for. If true, perhaps there is a Pittsburgh-specific subset
they could mail to (but I can't find any info on this).

Thanks a million,

Frank

We have had similar challenges. I think part of the problem is that it is
difficult to reach the non-retired participants, which inherently shrinks
the recruitment pool by a lot.

Some of us have talked about trying to build a local participant registry,
but it's not clear if that will encounter the same initial recruitment
issues.

Depending on the age you want, you could also try the Western Pennsylvania
School for Blind Children. They might be too young, but they have an alumni
association.

Great idea on the alum! We need folks who are 18 and over, so I didn't even
think to reach out to WPSBC.

And to Aaron's comment about a local participant registry: I think that is
a great idea. I had access to one of these lists for remote participants
for a couple studies I helped run back when I was in an industry setting
and it was amazing. I never really had to work hard to get participants
remotely.

I'll let y'all know if I get any leads, too. I reached out the the NFB for
advice as well, because you never know.

Have you had any feedback about why folks aren?t sharing the announcement?
I have heard (in other places) that the organizations are getting inundated
with requests.

For LAMP, it is about not wanting to officially (or unofficially) appear to

This local disability FB group often has local research studies posted:
https://www.facebook.com/share/fsUQ1zKVQ4iXwDrB/?mibextid=K35XfP


You?d have to join the group and answer the questions, but once approved,
I?m sure you could post.
