The Effect of Computer-Generated Descriptions on Photo-Sharing Experiences of People with Visual Impairments
Open accessAbstract
Like sighted people, visually impaired people want to share photographs on social networking services, but find it difficult to identify and select photos from their albums. We aimed to address this problem by incorporating state-of-the-art computer-generated descriptions into Facebook's photo-sharing feature. We interviewed 12 visually impaired participants to understand their photo-sharing experiences and designed a photo description feature for the Facebook mobile application. We evaluated this feature with six participants in a seven-day diary study. We found that participants used the descriptions to recall and organize their photos, but they hesitated to upload photos without a sighted person's input. In addition to basic information about photo content, participants wanted to know more details about salient objects and people, and whether the photos reflected their personal aesthetic. We discuss these findings from the lens of self-disclosure and self-presentation theories and propose new computer vision research directions that will better support visual content sharing by visually impaired people.

Access work is activist labor that typically opposes institutional norms.
“Yergeau argues that access work is “activist work [that] often goes against an institutional grain” [78].”
From Advocacy as Access Work: How People with Visual Impairments Gain Access to Digital Banking in India (2023) · cites this paper as [78]
The Discussion (p. 8) describes barriers to accessible photo sharing and the costs of seeking sighted assistance, but does not characterize access work as activist labor opposing institutional norms. Searches for the quoted phrase and for Yergeau and institutional norms found no passage addressing that claim. (LLM, conf=0.77)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
