Effects of Preview Time in Manual Tracking Tasks

In manual control tasks, preview of the target trajectory ahead is often limited by poor lighting, objects, or display edges. This paper investigates the effects of limited preview, or preview time, in manual tracking tasks with single- and double-integrator controlled element dynamics. A quasi-linear human controller model is used to predict...

The MatchNMingle dataset: A novel multi-sensor resource for the analysis of social interactions and group dynamics in-the-wild during free-standing conversations and speed dates

We present MatchNMingle, a novel multimodal/multisensor dataset for the analysis of free-standing conversational groups and speed-dates in-the-wild. MatchNMingle leverages the use of wearable devices and overhead cameras to record social interactions of 92 people during real-life speed-dates, followed by a cocktail party. To our knowledge,...
