Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A mathematical model of the human operator in multivariable control tasks is developed by considering the human as a control and information-processing system. The model contains elements for describing the operator's inherent physiological limitations as well as his Instrument-monitoring, data-reconstruction and control behavior. Special emphasis is placed on the instrument-monitoring aspects of the model. The human's limitations are modelled by combining them into an equivalent perceptual time delay and an equivalent observation noise. The main assumption underlying the subsequent theoretical investigations is that the well-trained, well-motivated operator behaves in a near optimal manner, subject to the constraints imposed by the above limitations. Thus, the operator's control behavior is assumed to be that of an ideal feedback controller. The human's data-reconstruction process is chosen so as to obtain a "best" estimate of the state of the controlled element based on information obtained from "sampling" the various instruments. The data reconstructor consists of a Kalman estimator and a predictor in tandem, its structure is fixed but it depends, parametrically, on the sampling behavior. Instrument-monitoring behavior depends explicitly on the control task and on the control actions. Provision is made for the ability to obtain information from the peripheral visual field and there are no restrictions on signal coupling. The visual sampling model also includes means for constraining instrument scanning rates. The specific characteristics of the operator's visual sampling behavior are predicted by solving a nonlinear optimization problem. This problem is precisely formulated and methods for its solution are discussed. By changing the variances of the observational noises it is possible to predict the effects that changes in the visual display panel will have upon the human's sampling behavior. Finally, instrument sampling characteristics for a simple two-axis compensatory tracking task are obtained. The results exhibit the general characteristics one would expect from a human operator performing a similar task."--Summary.

This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human factors profession is currently attempting to take a more proactive role in the design of man-machine systems than has been character istic of its past. Realizing that human engineering contributions are needed well before the experimental evaluation of prototypes or operational systems, there is a concerted effort to develop tools that predict how humans will interact with proposed designs. This volume provides an over view of one category of such tools: mathematical models of human performance. It represents a collection of invited papers from a 1988 NATO Workshop. The Workshop was conceived and organized by NATO Research Study Group 9 (RSG.9) on "Modelling of Human Operator Behaviour in Weapon Systems". It represented the culmination of over five years of effort, and was attended by 139 persons from Europe, Canada, and the United States. RSG.9 was established in 1982 by Panel 8 of the Defence Research Group to accomplish the following objectives: * Determine the utility and state of the art of human performance modelling. * Encourage international research and the exchange of ideas. * Foster the practical application of modelling research. * Provide a bridge between the models and approaches adopted by engineers and behavioral scientists. * Present the findings in an international symposium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a tutorial introduction to behavioral applications of control theory. Control theory describes the information one should be sensitive to and the pattern of influence that one should exert on a dynamic system in order to achieve a goal. As such, it is applicable to various forms of dynamic behavior. The book primarily deals with manual control (e.g., moving the cursor on a computer screen, lifting an object, hitting a ball, driving a car), both as a substantive area of study and as a useful perspective for approaching control theory. It is the experience of the authors that by imagining themselves as part of a manual control system, students are better able to learn numerous concepts in this field. Topics include varieties of control theory, such as classical, optimal, fuzzy, adaptive, and learning control, as well as perception and decision making in dynamic contexts. The authors also discuss implications of control theory for how experiments can be conducted in the behavioral sciences. In each of these areas they have provided brief essays intended to convey key concepts that enable the reader to more easily pursue additional readings. Behavioral scientists teaching control courses will be very interested in this book.

This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are some types of complex systems that are built like clockwork, with well-defined parts that interact in well-defined ways, so that the action of the whole can be precisely analyzed and anticipated with accuracy and precision. Some systems are not themselves so well-defined, but they can be modeled in ways that are like trained pilots in well-built planes, or electrolyte balance in healthy humans. But there are many systems for which that is not true; and among them are many whose understanding and control we would value. For example, the model for the trained pilot above fails exactly where the pilot is being most human; that is, where he is exercising the highest levels of judgment, or where he is learning and adapting to new conditions. Again, sometimes the kinds of complexity do not lead to easily analyzable models at all; here we might include most economic systems, in all forms of societies. There are several factors that seem to contribute to systems being hard to model, understand, or control. The human participants may act in ways that are so variable or so rich or so interactive that the only adequate model of the system would be the entire system itself, so to speak. This is probably the case in true long term systems involving people learning and growing up in a changing society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biomedical Applications of Control Engineering is a lucidly written textbook for graduate control engineering and biomedical engineering students as well as for medical practitioners who want to get acquainted with quantitative methods. It is based on decades of experience both in control engineering and clinical practice. The book begins by reviewing basic concepts of system theory and the modeling process. It then goes on to discuss control engineering application areas like: Different models for the human operator,dosage and timing optimization in oral drug administration, measuring symptoms of and optimal dopaminergic therapy in Parkinson’s disease, measurement and control of blood glucose levels both naturally and by means of external controllers in diabetes, and control of depth of anaesthesia using inhalational anaesthetic agents like sevoflurane using both fuzzy and state feedback controllers. All chapters include three types of exercises constructed to: Review the concepts discussed in the chapter, allow the reader to apply the newly acquired techniques and subject related facts on simple problems, and indicate directions for open ended theses projects. Appendices on Optimal Control and Fuzzy Control meant as refreshers on those control engineering techniques used throughout the book are also included.
