Description

Current accessible alternatives to diagrams for blind persons pose many critical drawbacks hindering their take-up, to the point where appropriate access to diagrams has been labeled as “the last frontier in accessibility”. Dialogue-based approaches to graphics, in which users communicate with the image via speech, are a novel area of research whose evaluation has yielded very promising results in overall expressivity and user satisfaction.
