Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract: The bulk of applications for haptic feedback employ direct rendering approaches wherein a user touches a virtual model of some “real ” thing, often displayed graphically as well. We propose a new class of applications based on abstract messages, ranging from “haptic icons ” – brief signals conveying an object’s or event’s state, function or content – to an expressive haptic language for interpersonal communication. Building this language requires us to understand how synthetic haptic signals are perceived, and what they can mean to us. Experiments presented here address the perception question by using an efficient version of Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) to extract perceptual axes for complex haptic icons: once this space is mapped, icons can be designed to maximize both differentiability and individual salience. Results show that a set of icons constructed by varying the frequency, magnitude and shape of 2-sec, time-invariant wave shapes map to two perceptual axes, which differ depending on the signals ’ frequency range; and suggest that expressive capability is maximized in one frequency subspace.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
