Transparency And Communication Patterns In Human-Robot Teaming, Shan Lakhmani May 2019

Transparency And Communication Patterns In Human-Robot Teaming, Shan Lakhmani

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In anticipation of the complex, dynamic battlefields of the future, military operations are increasingly demanding robots with increased autonomous capabilities to support soldiers. Effective communication is necessary to establish a common ground on which human-robot teamwork can be established across the continuum of military operations. However, the types and format of communication for mixed-initiative collaboration is still not fully understood. This study explores two approaches to communication in human-robot interaction, transparency and communication pattern, and examines how manipulating these elements with a robot teammate affects its human counterpart in a collaborative exercise. Participants were coupled with a computer-simulated robot to …


Analysis Literatures Of Machine Learning And Neural Networks For Real Time Scheduling, Phong Nguyenho, Mark Nguyen May 2019

Analysis Literatures Of Machine Learning And Neural Networks For Real Time Scheduling, Phong Nguyenho, Mark Nguyen

Recent Advances in Real-Time Systems

Real time scheduling problems are present in every aspect of software development. An optimized real time scheduling scheme would determine the performance of an operating system. There are many different approaches that real time scheduling researchers developed to tackle scheduling problems in many computer systems that have great important roles in keeping our modern society running smoothly. Neural-network real time scheduling is one of those approaches that can solve many computer scheduling problems. As computing technology advanced, more and more real time scheduling problems arise that need new solutions to keep up with the demand of faster computer systems. In …


Collaborative Artificial Intelligence Algorithms For Medical Imaging Applications, Naji Khosravan Jan 2019

Collaborative Artificial Intelligence Algorithms For Medical Imaging Applications, Naji Khosravan

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In this dissertation, we propose novel machine learning algorithms for high-risk medical imaging applications. Specifically, we tackle current challenges in radiology screening process and introduce cutting-edge methods for image-based diagnosis, detection and segmentation. We incorporate expert knowledge through eye-tracking, making the whole process human-centered. This dissertation contributes to machine learning, computer vision, and medical imaging research by: 1) introducing a mathematical formulation of radiologists level of attention, and sparsifying their gaze data for a better extraction and comparison of search patterns. 2) proposing novel, local and global, image analysis algorithms. Imaging based diagnosis and pattern analysis are "high-risk" Artificial Intelligence …
