This is, in general, a difficult task due to personal nature of data normally used to infer cognitive load. In addition, an individual changes over time and his/her pattern of data changes as well, which implies past data from an individual may not reliably predict the future cognitive load of the same individual. In this article, we show that utilization of data from other people (a.k.a. crowdsourcing) offers a significant improvement in classifier performance when predicting cognitive load. We reveal that the improvement is substantial compared to an individualistic model and is statistically significant.","PeriodicalId":43649,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Systems Man and Cybernetics Magazine","volume":"12 1","pages":"4-15"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78684829","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}

To evaluate the creative potential of astronauts in coping with such a hostile environment, we need to study their psychology as part of a perfectly balanced system that places mindsets in codependence with space and altered physiology.","PeriodicalId":43649,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Systems Man and Cybernetics Magazine","volume":"113 1","pages":"39-44"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83307665","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}

However, recent developments in machine learning algorithms, notably stationarity-based approaches and deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), have demonstrated promising results for a class of BCI systems, e.g., motor imagery BCIs, and affective state classification. These methods have not been systematically analyzed for EEG-based driver drowsiness detection and RT prediction.","PeriodicalId":43649,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Systems Man and Cybernetics Magazine","volume":"2 1","pages":"16-28"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77852927","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}

It is time-consuming to find specific information from thousands of input documents. Less experienced employees cannot operate complex tasks due to having less knowledge and training about the documents and their operation. Research gaps in current knowledge structuring and retrieval methods are discussed and used to identify essential features to achieve effective methods to manage instructive text (iText) related to learning and answering queries connected to operating procedures. Knowledge structure is proposed to represent inputs from documents, data, text, and voice related to operation and maintenance instructions in nuclear power plants. Human experience is captured and integrated within the structured knowledge in an integrated scheme, called the human experience semantic network (HESN), which includes deterministic, qualitative, and probabilistic parameters and attributes that are captured and dynamically tuned throughout the execution of the system.","PeriodicalId":43649,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Systems Man and Cybernetics Magazine","volume":"12 1","pages":"31-34"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79139895","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}
