报告人：Dr. S. Narayanan, Chair of the Department of Biomedical, Industrial, and Human Factors Engineering at Wright State University, USA

报告题目：“BIE Department Overview and Research on Model-Based Human-Centered Decision Aiding in Complex, Dynamic Systems”

报告摘要：

The first part of this talk will present an overview of ongoing research and education initiatives aimed at building excellence in human-centered engineering in the Department of Biomedical, Industrial, and Human Factors Engineering at Wright State University. Included in this overview is recent research on modeling and simulation, medical imaging, image fusion for Department of Defense applications, and model-based decision aiding.  
The second part of the talk will discuss in detail a research program focusing on theoretical and application issues of computational modeling for understanding and aiding human decision making in complex, dynamic systems. A description of interactive simulations and cognitive modeling research to support human information processing tasks such as information seeking, supervisory control, and troubleshooting will be presented followed by an overview of the results of applying these concepts in aiding human decision making in the command and control of remotely piloted vehicles.
