Vision Transformer attention alignment with human visual perception in aesthetic object evaluation
Visual attention mechanisms play a crucial role in human perception and aesthetic evaluation. Recent advances in Vision Transformers (ViTs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in computer vision tasks, yet their alignment with human visual attention patterns remains underexplored, particularly in aesthetic contexts. This study investigates the correlation between human visual attention and ViT attention mechanisms when evaluating handcrafted objects. We conducted an eye-tracking experimen…

Weaving the Future: Generative AI and the Reimagining of Fashion Design
This paper explores the integration of generative AI into the fashion design process. Drawing on insights from the January 2025 seminar ``Tisser le futur,'' it investigates how AI reshapes creative workflows, from ideation to prototyping, while interrogating the ethical, aesthetic, and labor implications. The paper highlights co-creative dynamics between humans and machines, the potential for aesthetic innovation, and the environmental and cultural challenges of algorithmic design.

Filters of Identity: AR Beauty and the Algorithmic Politics of the Digital Body
This position paper situates AR beauty filters within the broader debate on Body Politics in HCI. We argue that these filters are not neutral tools but technologies of governance that reinforce racialized, gendered, and ableist beauty standards. Through naming conventions, algorithmic bias, and platform governance, they impose aesthetic norms while concealing their influence. To address these challenges, we advocate for transparency-driven interventions and a critical rethinking of algorithmic …

AesBiasBench: Evaluating Bias and Alignment in Multimodal Language Models for Personalized Image Aesthetic Assessment
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly applied in Personalized Image Aesthetic Assessment (PIAA) as a scalable alternative to expert evaluations. However, their predictions may reflect subtle biases influenced by demographic factors such as gender, age, and education. In this work, we propose AesBiasBench, a benchmark designed to evaluate MLLMs along two complementary dimensions: (1) stereotype bias, quantified by measuring variations in aesthetic evaluations across demograph…

Empirically, participants generally view AI as a partner that s…

A Low-Latency 3D Live Remote Visualization System for Tourist Sites Integrating Dynamic and Pre-captured Static Point Clouds
Various real-time methods for capturing and transmitting dynamic 3D spaces have been proposed, including those based on RGB-D cameras and volumetric capture. However, applying existing methods to outdoor tourist sites remains difficult because maintenance and aesthetic constraints limit sensor placement, and daylight variability complicates processing. We propose a system that combines multiple LiDARs and cameras for live dynamic point cloud capture, and integrates them with pre-captured static…
