Dr. Klen Čopič Pucihar serves as Associate Professor at the Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies (FAMNIT) at the University of Primorska in Koper, Slovenia. He holds multiple leadership roles including Department Chair of Information Sciences and Technologies, Deputy Chair of HICUP Lab, and Study Programme Coordinator for the Doctoral Computer Science program. His research centers on Human-Computer Interaction with particular emphasis on: Augmented, Mixed, and Virtual Reality systems Micro-gesture recognition using radar sensing (e.g., Google Soli) Paper interfaces and augmentation of physical media AR for educational applications, particularly vocabulary learning Addressing the 'dual-view problem' in handheld AR systems Dr. Čopič Pucihar's work is driven by the vision to 'unclog the bottleneck' between humans and digital information. His recent publications (2019-2025) show a strong trajectory from theoretical interaction techniques toward practical educational applications and novel input methods using radar sensing, with consistent output in top venues including CHI, ISS, MobileHCI, and ISMAR. His notable achievements include: Best Paper Award at ACM IUI 2025 Honorable Mentions at ACM EICS 2022 and ACM ISS 2022 Best Poster Award at ISMAR Multiple hackathon victories including at Columbia University As Study Programme Coordinator for Doctoral Computer Science, Dr. Čopič Pucihar mentors graduate students and shapes research directions. His HICUP Lab hosts an international research group focused on making digital interfaces more intuitive and effective for human use through advanced sensing methods and personalized services. HICUP Lab leverages techniques from data mining, machine learning, computer vision, and human perception to develop interfaces that function as extensions of human minds, bodies, and behavior, with the ultimate goal of enabling 'digital augmentation of human abilities to its fullest potential.'

Professor Boštjan Brumen serves as a Full Professor at the University of Maribor specializing in informatics with dual research foci in security/privacy and machine learning. His academic profile bridges technical informatics with tourism applications, particularly examining digitalization and security challenges in tourism contexts through interdisciplinary research. His research centers on password security and cryptoanalysis within security studies, while exploring algorithmic limitations in machine learning classification systems. Recently, he has integrated these domains with tourism research, investigating pandemic-related travel behavior, spatial sensitivity in urban tourism, and security vulnerabilities in tourism technology systems. This work appears in reputable journals including Computers & Security and Academica turistica. Professor Brumen teaches Data Analysis in Tourism across undergraduate, master's, and doctoral programs, employing a teaching methodology that prioritizes critical thinking and adaptability over factual memorization. His pedagogical approach combines lectures with discussion-based analysis followed by independent application exercises, emphasizing historical context and pattern recognition to prepare students for evolving technological landscapes. His publication record demonstrates consistent output in both technical informatics venues and tourism research journals, with recent 2020 publications spanning shoulder surfing experiments, city spatial sensitivity, and COVID-19 travel impact studies. While specific awards aren't documented, his work appears in high-impact journals including the Journal of Medical Internet Research (IF 4.7). Professor Brumen maintains active research supervision through course instruction and co-authored publications, though specific student names aren't listed. His interdisciplinary approach connects informatics fundamentals with practical tourism applications, suggesting ongoing institutional support for his research activities despite explicit grant details being unavailable.
