This book was released on 2019-02-11 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aviation remains one of the most active and challenging domains for human factors and applied psychology. Since 1981, the biennial International Symposium on Aviation Psychology (ISAP) has convened for the purposes of (a) presenting the latest research on human performance problems and opportunities within aviation systems, (b) envisioning design solutions that best utilize human capabilities for creating safe and efficient aviation systems, and (c) the bringing together of scientists, research sponsors, and operators in an effort to bridge the gap between research and application. Based upon the potential impact of emerging trends, current debates, or enduring issues presented at the 19th ISAP, select authors were invited to expand on their work following the benefit of interactions at the symposium. The authors include leading scientists, prominent researchers, and aviation operators contributing to the discussion of the most pressing technical challenges and research priorities. Visions for the incorporation of new interface technologies within next-generation cockpits, tools for future air traffic control research, neuroergonomic findings in aviation settings, and human limitations affecting safety are offered. The aim of these volumes is to report the latest findings in aviation psychology and to suggest new directions for advancing the field.

Book Design Recommendations for Intelligent Tutoring Systems  Volume 10   Strengths  Weaknesses  Opportunities and Threats  SWOT  Analysis of Intelligent Tutoring Systems

Download or read book Design Recommendations for Intelligent Tutoring Systems Volume 10 Strengths Weaknesses Opportunities and Threats SWOT Analysis of Intelligent Tutoring Systems written by Anne Sinatra and published by U.S. Army DEVCOM – Soldier Center. This book was released on 2023-03-10 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a resource for those who are new to intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs), as well as those with a great deal of experience with them. This is the tenth book in our Design Recommendations for Intelligent Tutoring Systems book series. The focus of this book is on Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) Analyses of varying components of ITSs. Each chapter in the book represents a different topic area, and includes a SWOT analysis that is specific to that topic and how it relates to ITSs. This book can be read in order, or a reader can choose a specific topic area and move directly to that chapter. Each SWOT Analysis describes the current state of the topic area, and how the lessons learned from the analysis could be applied to the Generalized Intelligent Framework for Tutoring (GIFT) (Sottilare et al., 2012; Sottilare et al., 2017). GIFT is an ITS architecture that is open-source, modular, and domain independent (Sottilare et al., 2017). Each book in the design recommendations series has addressed a different ITS topic area, and how the work in each chapter can relate to and inform the GIFT architecture. GIFT has continually been in development, with features consistently being added to improve functionality, as well as reduce the skill requirement for authoring content in GIFT. GIFT is freely available in both downloadable and Cloud versions at https://www.GIFTtutoring.org.

Book Mobile Robot  Motion Control and Path Planning

Download or read book Mobile Robot Motion Control and Path Planning written by Ahmad Taher Azar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the recent research advances in linear and nonlinear control techniques. From both a theoretical and practical standpoint, motion planning and related control challenges are key parts of robotics. Indeed, the literature on the planning of geometric paths and the generation of time-based trajectories, while accounting for the compatibility of such paths and trajectories with the kinematic and dynamic constraints of a manipulator or a mobile vehicle, is extensive and rich in historical references. Path planning is vital and critical for many different types of robotics, including autonomous vehicles, multiple robots, and robot arms. In the case of multiple robot route planning, it is critical to produce a safe path that avoids colliding with objects or other robots. When designing a safe path for an aerial or underwater robot, the 3D environment must be considered. As the number of degrees of freedom on a robot arm increases, so does the difficulty of path planning. As a result, safe pathways for high-dimensional systems must be developed in a timely manner. Nonetheless, modern robotic applications, particularly those requiring one or more robots to operate in a dynamic environment (e.g., human–robot collaboration and physical interaction, surveillance, or exploration of unknown spaces with mobile agents, etc.), pose new and exciting challenges to researchers and practitioners. For instance, planning a robot's motion in a dynamic environment necessitates the real-time and online execution of difficult computational operations. The development of efficient solutions for such real-time computations, which could be offered by specially designed computational architectures, optimized algorithms, and other unique contributions, is thus a critical step in the advancement of present and future-oriented robotics.
