I've used both and find the specific usefulness of each as follows:

* UX is the research and design of a solution.
* UML is the technical specification of the solution that resulted
from the UX work.

It helps me to remember that proper User Centered Design brings a
multi-disciplinary team to the table including Design, Computer
Science, and Cognitive Psychology to find the proper UX solution.
Then that solution needs to be built but a technology team. Providing
the technology team with UML specifications of the solution bridges
the gap that often exists between these two groups.
