IR for AAC Users: A Hyperdimensional Computing (Vector Symbolic Architectures) Approach

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This work proposes Hyperdimensional Computing (HDC) as a design paradigm [13] to facilitate search and recommendation activities for disabled users employing symbolic augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) systems. Such a context necessitates flexibility and composability in item and query representations as a consequence of vocabularies being tailored to an individual user. HDC is suggested to meet these needs in an efficient manner. However, construction and empirical evaluation are left to additional research.
