A Phone That Knows You're Busy{{/B}} It's a
modern problem: You're too busy to be disturbed by incessant (连续不断的) phone calls
so you turn your cellphone off. But if you don't remember to turn it back on
when you're less busy, you could miss some important calls. If only the phone
knew when it was wise to interrupt you, you wouldn't have to turn it off at all.
Instead, it could let calls through when you are not too busy. A
bunch of behavior sensors (传感器) and a clever piece of software could do just
that, by analyzing your behavior to determine if it's a good time to interrupt
you. If built into a phone, the system may decide you're too busy and ask the
caller to leave a message or ring back later. James Fogarty and
Scott Hudson at Camegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania based their system on
tiny microphones, cameras and touch sensors that reveal body language and
activity. First they had to study different behaviors to find out which ones
strongly predict whether your mind is interrupted. The potential
"busyness" signals they focused on included whether the office doors were left
open or closed, the time of day, if other people were with the person in
question, how close they were to each other, and whether or not the computer was
in use. The sensors monitored these and many other factors while
four subjects were at work. At random intervals, the subjects rated how
interruptible they were on a scale ranging from "highly interruptible" to
"highly not-interruptible". Their ratings were then correlated with the various
behaviors. "It is a shotgun (随意的) approach: we used all the indicators we could
think of and then let statistics find out which were important," says
Hudson. The model showed that using the keyboard, and talking on
a landline or to someone else in the office correlated most strongly with how
interruptible the subjects judged themselves to be.
Interestingly, the computer was actually better than people at predicting
when someone was too busy to be interrupted. The computer got it right 82 per
cent of the time, humans 77 per cent. Fogarty speculates that this might be
because people doing the interrupting are inevitably biased towards delivering
their message, whereas computers don't care. The first
application for Hudson and Fogarty's system is likely to be in an instant
messaging system, followed by office phones and cellphones. "There is no
technological roadblock (障碍) to it being deployed in a couple of years," says
Hudson.
