Automatic web accessibility metrics: Where we are and where we can go
2011
Interacting with computers
Our findings lead us to conclude that the Web Accessibility Quantitative Metric, Page Measure and Web Accessibility Barrier are the metrics that achieve the highest levels of quality (out of the seven ...
In this paper we aim at formulating such a framework, demonstrating that it is feasible, and showing the findings we obtained when we applied it to seven existing automatic accessibility metrics. ...

Is It Possible to Predict the Manual Web Accessibility Result Using the Automatic Result?
[chapter]
2009
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
He have performed both manual and automatic evaluations of the accessibility of web pages of two sites and we have compared the results. ...
The question is: to what extent the results from automatic evaluation of a web site and individual web pages can be used as an approximation for manual results? ...
We applied all 141 of the UWEM tests manually and 23 of the tests automatically on 30 web pages from two web sites. In our research we found that test descriptions in UWEM where unclear. ...

Mobile Findex: Facilitating Information Access in Mobile Web Search with Automatic Result Clustering
2008
Advances in Human-Computer Interaction
We present Mobile Findex, a mobile search user interface that uses automatically computed result clusters to provide the user with an overview of the result set. ...
Designing an effective mobile search user interface is challenging, as interacting with the results is often complicated by the lack of available screen space and limited interaction methods. ...
Previous work by Mika Käki on the Findex clustering engine was essential in enabling this research, and we owe him a great debt of gratitude. ...
