Visual Design Evaluation

Abstract: The present subject matter relates to evaluation of a visual design of a user interface (UI). The method comprises receiving, from at least one reviewer, a response to a plurality of questions associated with a plurality of dimensions. The plurality of dimensions is indicative of criteria for assessment of the visual design of the UI. Further, an aggregate visual design quality index (VDIA) score for the UI is computed. The VDIA score is computed based on the response received from the at least one reviewer, and a plurality of weighing factors corresponding to each of the plurality of dimensions. Subsequently, the VDIA score is compared with a pre-determined benchmark visual design quality index (VDIB) score to evaluate the quality of the visual design of the UI.

Specification

CLIAMS:1. A computer implemented method for evaluating quality of a visual design of a user interface (UI), the method comprising:
receiving, from at least one reviewer, a response to a plurality of questions associated with a plurality of dimensions, the plurality of dimensions being indicative of criteria for assessment of the visual design of the UI;
computing an aggregate visual design quality index (VDIA) score for the UI, wherein the VDIA score is computed based on the response received from the at least one reviewer, and a plurality of weighing factors corresponding to each of the plurality of dimensions; and
comparing the VDIA score with a pre-determined benchmark visual design quality index (VDIB) score to evaluate the quality of the visual design of the UI.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the plurality of dimensions includes at least one of a design principle, a branding, and aesthetics.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of dimensions includes at least one category, and wherein the at least one category further includes at least one parameter.
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising receiving, from a user, a response to a pre-assessment questionnaire, wherein the pre-assessment questionnaire pertains to details of the UI.
5. The method as claimed in claim 4 further comprising determining the plurality of weighing factors based on the response to the pre-assessment questionnaire.
6. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the computing further comprises
obtaining, from the at least one reviewer, in response to the plurality of questions, at least one visual design quality index (VDI) score corresponding to the at least one category;
ascertaining, based on the at least one VDI score, a dimension visual design quality index (VDID) score for each of the plurality of dimensions; and
computing, at least one UI visual design index (VDIUI) score based on the VDID score and the corresponding weighing factors, for evaluating the VDIA score.
7. The method as claimed in claim 6 further comprising providing an evaluation report to a user, wherein the evaluation report includes at least one of the VDIA score, the at least one VDI score, the VDID score corresponding to each dimension, the at least one VDIUI, the VDIB score, and suggestions for improving the quality of the visual design of the UI.
8. An evaluation system (102) for evaluating quality of a visual design of a user interface (UI), the evaluation system (102) comprising:
a processor (110); and
a memory (114) coupled to the processor (110), the memory (114) comprising:
a computation module (120) to,
receive, from at least one reviewer, a response to a plurality of questions associated with a plurality of dimensions, the plurality of dimensions being indicative of criteria for assessment of the visual design of the UI; and
compute an aggregate visual design quality index (VDIA) score for the UI, wherein the VDIA score is computed based on the response received from the at least one reviewer, and a plurality of weighing factors corresponding to each of the plurality of dimensions; and
an evaluation module (122) to compare the VDIA score with a pre-determined benchmark visual design quality index (VDIB) score to evaluate the quality of the visual design of the UI.
9. The evaluation system (102) as claimed in claim 8, wherein the plurality of dimensions includes at least one of a design principle, a branding, and aesthetics.
10. The evaluation system (102) as claimed in claim 8, wherein each of the plurality of dimensions includes at least one category, and wherein the at least one category further includes at least one parameter.
11. The evaluation system (102) as claimed in claim 8, wherein the computation module (120) further receives, from a user, a response to a pre-assessment questionnaire, wherein the pre-assessment questionnaire pertains to details of the UI.
12. The evaluation system (102) as claimed in claim 11, wherein the computation module (120) determines the plurality of weighing factors based on the response to the pre-assessment questionnaire.
13. The evaluation system (102) as claimed in claim 10, wherein the computation module (120) further,
obtains, from the at least one reviewer, in response to the plurality of questions, at least one visual design quality index (VDI) score corresponding to the at least one category;
ascertains, based on the at least one VDI score, a dimension visual design quality index (VDID) score for each of the plurality of dimensions; and
computes, at least one UI visual design quality index (VDI¬UI) score based on the VDID score and the corresponding weighing factors, to evaluate the VDIA score.
14. The evaluation system (102) as claimed in claim 13 further comprising a notification module (124), wherein the notification module (124) provides an evaluation report to a user, wherein the evaluation report includes at least one of the VDIA score, the at least one VDI score, the VDID score corresponding to each dimension, the at least one VDIUI score, the VDIB score, and suggestions for improving the quality of the visual design of the UI.
15. A computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a computer program for executing a method comprising:
receiving, from at least one reviewer, a response to a plurality of questions associated with a plurality of dimensions, the plurality of dimensions being indicative of criteria for assessment of the visual design of the UI;
computing an aggregate visual design quality index (VDIA) score for the UI, wherein the VDIA score is computed based on the response received from the at least one reviewer, and a plurality of weighing factors corresponding to each of the plurality of dimensions; and
comparing the VDIA score with a pre-determined benchmark visual design quality index (VDIB) score to evaluate the quality of the visual design of the UI.
