Cognitive Engineering For Intelligent Man-Machine Systems, Erika Rogers

Computer Science and Software Engineering

This paper discusses a methodology for cognitive engineering which provides a framework for the cognitive studiesintelligent system developmentcognitive studies cycle. The methodology has been developed to address the problem of providing knowledge-based cooperative assistance in visual reasoning tasks, and is discussed in terms of its impact on three different application domains: diagnostic radiology, geographical information systems, and tele-assisted robot supervision.


Tele-Assistance For Semi-Autonomous Robots, Erika Rogers, Robin R. Murphy Jan 1994

Tele-Assistance For Semi-Autonomous Robots, Erika Rogers, Robin R. Murphy

Computer Science and Software Engineering

This paper describes current work on a cooperative tele-assistance system for semi-autonomous robots. This system combines a robot architecture for limited autonomous perceptual and motor control with a knowledge-based operator assistant which provides strategic selection and enhancement of relevant data. The design of the system is presented, together with a number of exception-handling scenarios that were constructed as a result of experiments wit.h act.ual sensor data collected from two mobile robots.
