Abstract : The rapid growth of digital functionality has intensified the challenge of designing interfaces that remain simple yet powerful. This study proposes an Adaptive Minimal Interface System (AMIS) that balances simplicity, efficiency, and personalization through context-aware multimodal design. The system integrates findings from contemporary research on adaptive user interfaces, multimodal interaction, and AI-driven personalization. AMIS employs a learn–adapt–simplify methodology, where the interface continuously learns user intent, adapts modality (text, audio, or video) based on environmental context, and simplifies visible features without reducing capability. Using a feedback-based control model, the system dynamically adjusts interface density and feature visibility according to metrics such as ease of use, workflow success, and help availability. A prototype evaluation using simulated datasets demonstrated a 22–30% improvement in task efficiency, a 19% reduction in errors, and a 31% increase in user satisfaction compared to static interfaces. Results confirm that adaptive minimalism enhances usability and personalization while maintaining full system functionality. The study concludes that combining machine learning, multimodal input, and adaptive minimalism enables intelligent, user- centric systems that anticipate needs, reduce cognitive load, and streamline interaction across devices. This approach redefines user experience by transforming interfaces into context-sensitive collaborators rather than static tools, advancing the next generation of efficient and human-centered interface design.
