This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering, under the CFDA 47.079 program, provides $127,482 to Wellesley College to support collaborative research on human-automation interaction for the future of work between US and German researchers. Over a two-year period from July 1, 2022 through August 31, 2024, the grant will fund research at Wellesley College and in Germany to design intuitive human-automation interactions that promote...
This $994,988 National Science Foundation project grant through the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund research at the University of New Mexico from May 1, 2023 through April 30, 2028. The research aims to develop an algorithmic framework for integrating knowledge of human perception and reasoning about uncertainty into the design and control of autonomous dynamical systems. New mathematical theory and computational algorithms will be created based on control theory, machine learning,...
This five-year, $673,782 National Science Foundation project grant in the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund research at Purdue University to develop a control-theoretic framework for modeling human cognitive state dynamics during human-automation interaction. The framework will define a human cognitive state space and characterize its dynamics in a model that can be used for control system design. A methodology will be created to estimate cognitive states and parameters in real time...
This $522,592 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) aims to create a data-driven autonomy framework that enables everyday workers to safely and effectively teach robots. The research will advance the state-of-the-art in dynamical systems and control through three interconnected thrusts: 1) developing a novel framework for data-driven control of complex, hard-to-model systems; 2) introducing methods for teaching robots through...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $174,778 will fund research at San Jose State University from September 2022 to August 2024 under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070). The grant aims to develop methods and tools to support older adults with varying cognitive and physical abilities in interacting with complex automated systems. Researchers will conduct simulation experiments to explore the effects of multimodal displays on how quickly...
This $395,927 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.070 - Computer and Information Science and Engineering) aims to develop theoretical and algorithmic foundations for building a safe and sustainable human-AI ecosystem. The key objectives are: Developing an analytical framework to characterize human-AI interactions and embed safety considerations for both the AI learner and human agents. Examining the feedback effects between human and AI agents, and developing...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program totaling $246,455 will fund research examining socio-technical practices governing the design, manufacture, and distribution of emerging digital technologies.
