It becomes more problematic when we look at the\u0000 study of the United Nations which estimates that 55% of the world's\u0000 population lives in urban areas and projects a proportion of 70% by 2050.\u0000 This is a problem because most cities have not been planned to bear flows of\u0000 people of this magnitude, and this is the root cause of most mobility issues\u0000 that people face every day over the world. On the other hand, technological\u0000 evolution has been outstanding in the last few years, and smart cities can\u0000 make use of this advancement, especially to improve urban mobility.

Based on the concept underlying the population\u0000 stereotype production technique, it is argued that a higher similarity score\u0000 implies higher comprehensibility of the sign.

{"title":"Using the Decision Ladder to understand human decision-making processes\u0000 during a UAV-equipped SAR mission","authors":"S. Hart, Victoria Steane, M. Chattington, S. Bullock, J. Noyes","doi":"10.54941/ahfe1004123","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.54941/ahfe1004123","url":null,"abstract":"The uptake of Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) within the Search and\u0000 Rescue (SAR) application is becoming ubiquitous owing to the way in which\u0000 UAVs can support and extend SAR responses. During a SAR mission, UAVs are\u0000 deployed to offer a birds-eye perspective of the search space which is\u0000 captured by the onboard payload sensors and transmitted to human operators\u0000 in real time. Currently, this data stream is processed manually by a Payload\u0000 Operator to identify any hazards or signs of human life on the ground.\u0000 However, the task of identifying and extrapolating information using the\u0000 display technology is highly challenging. This is primarily due to the high\u0000 levels of cognitive effort which must be expended over time to detect\u0000 sightings that are likely to be camouflaged or obscured by the surrounding\u0000 terrain. For this reason, system engineers are looking to develop image\u0000 classification modules capable of autonomous object detection and labelling\u0000 to streamline the information acquisition process from the UAV. When looking\u0000 to introduce novel functionality, such as an image classification module, it\u0000 is important to consider how decision-making processes are currently\u0000 undertaken by the team of human operators. In doing so, a greater\u0000 understanding is yielded on how the current ways of working could be\u0000 supported through further design intervention. The current work aims to\u0000 capture these processes using the representational medium of the Decision\u0000 Ladder. Rasmussen (1974) developed the Decision Ladder to define the\u0000 different information processing activities undertaken by a decision-maker\u0000 when identifying an appropriate course of action within a given situation.\u0000 In order to develop the Decision Ladder for the UAV-equipped SAR scenario,\u0000 knowledge elicitation activities were conducted using interviews with SAR\u0000 personnel.The final amalgamated Decision Ladder was populated using the\u0000 responses from the interviews. The decision model demonstrated the\u0000 complexity of utilising UAVs to support a SAR mission due to the regulatory\u0000 and technological constraints associated with the UAV. In addition, the\u0000 importance of a validation activity was emphasised by the SAR personnel\u0000 which would be conducted to determine the accuracy of any information\u0000 presented by the automated system. Here, the decision ladder was able to\u0000 identify the broad set of information aspects that would be reviewed by the\u0000 human-UAV team. The subsequent knowledge obtained would be used to identify\u0000 the relevance of a sighting and determine the most appropriate response\u0000 using the limited resources available within the SAR environment. This\u0000 insight provided from the Decision Ladder was used to propose a set of novel\u0000 design recommendations that could extend the capabilities of the image\u0000 classification module within the SAR context. Therefore, this work advocates\u0000 the use of a user-centred design approach to support the development of\u0000 technologies based on the tasks and cognit","PeriodicalId":231376,"journal":{"name":"Human Systems Engineering and Design (IHSED 2023): Future Trends\n and Applications","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127548701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Darmois, Martin Boecker","doi":"10.54941/ahfe1004137","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.54941/ahfe1004137","url":null,"abstract":"Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) are playing an\u0000 ever-increasing role in everyone's lives, specially thanks to vast range of\u0000 ICT devices and services which create a lot of opportunities for end-users\u0000 (access to huge amounts of information, fostered people interaction, …),\u0000 thereby improving their quality of life. In this context, the role of\u0000 mobility-related devices (e.g., smartphones) and their use with services\u0000 (e.g., payment, public services) is key for enabling efficient and secure\u0000 end-user interaction.Two approaches can support this goal, regarding\u0000 terminology and language coverage. On the one hand, from the end-user point\u0000 of view, discovering and understanding the services offered by ICT should\u0000 not become a challenge, with different device manufacturers and service\u0000 providers using a divergent set of terms to denominate identical devices and\u0000 service features: a remedy for diverging denominations of features could be\u0000 harmonized and user-centered ICT terminologies, facilitating feature\u0000 recognition by all users, including those with cognitive impairments. On the\u0000 other hand, harmonized terminologies should be able to support diverse\u0000 languages, such as those spoken in European Union, in a consistent\u0000 manner.ETSI, the European Telecommunication Standards Institute, is the home\u0000 of global telecommunications standards such as 3G, LTE, 5G, and DECT, and\u0000 its Technical Committee Human Factors is publishing standards documents that\u0000 aim at increasing the usability and accessibility of ICT. ETSI has developed\u0000 and published a consistent approach for such harmonized ICT terminologies\u0000 materializing in a number of publicly and freely standardisation\u0000 documents.Several ETSI Specifications (ES) have been developed over time.\u0000 ETSI ES 202 076 is addressing a minimum set of spoken commands required to\u0000 control the generic and common functions of ICT devices and services that\u0000 use speaker-independent speech recognition. The related commands have been\u0000 specified for all the official languages of the European Union (EU) and the\u0000 European Free Trade Association (EFTA). A similar language range is\u0000 available for the ETSI ES 202 130 which specifies the minimum repertoires\u0000 and assignments of graphic (letter, digit and special) characters to\u0000 standard 12-key telephone keypads and specifies their ordering for ICT\u0000 devices with telephony functionality.Currently, ETSI is developing a\u0000 harmonized terminology -- published as ETSI Guide EG 203 499 -- covering\u0000 commonly used, basic ICT features of current and upcoming ICT devices (4\u0000 groups, e.g., telephony and photography), services and applications (12\u0000 groups, e.g., banking and navigation) focusing on mobile contexts of use.\u0000 The result is a multilingual terminology supporting over 800 terms.The work\u0000 has been undertaken in three steps by subsequent ETSI Specialist Tasks\u0000 Forces with a broadening language support, from 5 languages in the first\u0000 version up to a coverage of all the official ","PeriodicalId":231376,"journal":{"name":"Human Systems Engineering and Design (IHSED 2023): Future Trends\n and Applications","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125382602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
