van Diggelen, J. (author), Looije, R. (author), Mioch, T. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Smets, N.J.J.M. (author)This paper presents a usage-centered evaluation method to assess the capabilities of a particular Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) for establishing the operational goals. The method includes a test battery consisting of basic tasks (e.g., slalom, funnel driving, object detection). Tests can be of different levels of abstraction, and be performed in...conference paper 2012

Dijk, E.O. (author), Nijholt, A. (author), van Erp, J.B.F. (author), Kuyper, E. (author), van Wolferen, G. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)From literature and through common experience it is known that stimulation of the tactile (touch) sense or auditory (hearing) sense can be used to improve people's health and well-being. For example, to make people relax, feel better, sleep better or feel comforted. In this position paper we propose the concept of combined auditory-tactile...conference paper 2010

van Lambalgen, R. (author), van Maanen, P.P. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)In this paper it is explored whether personalisation of an existing computational model of attention can increase the model's validity. Computational models of attention are for instance applied in attention allocation support systems and can benefit from this increased validity. Personalisation is done by tuning the model's parameters during a...conference paper 2010

Brouwer, A.M. (author), van Erp, J.B.F. (author), Heylen, D. (author), Jensen, O. (author), Poel, M. (author)While a BCI usually aims to provide an alternative communication channel for disabled users who have difficulties to move or to speak, we focused on BCIs as a way to retrieve and use information about an individual’s cognitive or affective state without requiring any effort or intention of the user to convey this information. Providing only an...conference paper 2013

Terken, J. (author), Ham, J. (author), Hoedemaeker, M. (author)Many automotive innovations affect the driver's task and/or the driving experience. In this paper we argue that successful innovation in these cases requires that due attention is given to Human Factors issues in the course of the innovation process. We support this claim by examples from several recent and ongoing innovation projects. To...conference paper 2011

(author)Motivation – Complex design specifications must be partitioned in manageable pieces to be able to evaluate them in separate experiments. No methodology exists yet to deal with this task. Research approach – Practical experience in Situated Cognitive Engineering and the Mission Execution Crew Assistant is combined with a theoretical perspective...conference paper 2010

Mioch, T. (author), Smets, N.J.J.M. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author)Human-in-the-loop field tests of human-robot operations in high-demand situations provide serious constraints with respect to costs and control. A set of relatively simple unit tasks might be used to do part of the testing and to establish a benchmark for human-robot performance and situation awareness. For an urban search and rescue (tunnel...conference paper 2012

Hof, T. (author), Wilschut, E.S. (author)This report provides an overview of methods to prevent drowsy driving of drivers (Wilschut et al., 2009). Several preventive approaches were discussed such as the use of questionnaires, campaigns and fatigue management plans. A search for law enforcement instruments to prevent sleepiness at the wheel did not provide any instruments that could...conference paper 2011

Brouwer, A.M. (author), van Erp, J.B.F. (author), Kappe, B. (author), Urai, A.E. (author)The brain can be very proficient in classifying images that are hard for computer algorithms to deal with. Previous studies show that EEG can contribute to sorting shortly presented images in targets and non-targets. We examine how EEG and classification performance are affected by image presentation time and the kind of target: humans (a...conference paper 2011

Lucassen, M.P. (author), Alferdinck, J.W.A.M. (author), van Megen, R. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)In The Netherlands, veal carcasses are classified on color, conformation and fatness. In the past 20 years, major efforts have been put into the development of a reliable color classification system. Initially, the color of the musculus rectus abdominis was visually matched to a 10-point scale. Later on, the visual classification was replaced by...conference paper 2010

Hoogendoorn, M. (author), Jaffry, S.W. (author), van Maanen, P.P. (author)In this paper, the results of a validation experiment for two existing computational trust models describing human trust are reported. One model uses experiences of performance in order to estimate the trust in different trustees. The second model in addition carries the notion of relative trust. The idea of relative trust is that trust in a...conference paper 2011

Colin, T.R. (author), Mioch, T. (author), Smets, N.J.J.M.
