In conditionally automated driving (SAE level 3), drivers may take their eyes off the road but will still need to be ready to take control and will, therefore, benefit from information on automation. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of automation manoeuvre information provided through spatial sound, traditional notification sound...

Personalized designs bring significant added value to the products and the users. However, they also pose challenges on the product design process. For instance, for products for personalized fit ,each may differ subject to each user’s body shape and preference. Presently, there exist knowledge and methods which suppor designing personalized...

The identification of time-varying, adaptive behaviour of a human operator in basic manual control tasks is undoubtedly under development since most methodologies only account for time-invariant systems. Previous authors have proved that estimation techniques based on ARX structures can generally identify the HO model parameters. Nonetheless,...

Technological systems and infrastructures form the bedrock of modern society and it is system administrators (sysadmins) who configure, maintain and operate these infrastructures. More often than not, they do so behind the scenes. The work of system administration tends to be unseen and, consequently, not well known. After all, do you think of...

This thesis introduces the relevance of radar systems in the realm of human activity recognition (HAR) in Chapter 1. The study touches upon the complex understanding of continuous human activities and the existing challenges and gaps in current methodologies, hinting at the innovative technical approaches that are to be detailed in the following...

The basic reproductive number (R0) of an infectious disease is the expected number of secondary cases infected by the first case in an otherwise susceptible population. In this thesis, based on this fundamental concept, we propose a new method: the IIN-TN method that could calculate R0 of a network from the local structure of the network under...

The world is in a climatic crisis. Extreme weather events are stronger and more frequent than ever before, exacerbated by human induced CO2 from energy production and the built environment. Only 5% of world energy is produced by renewable energy sources, presenting an enormous gap between sustainability and greenhouse gas emitting practices....

This study investigated the human-robot interaction of three different augmented reality interfaces that enabled an operator to control a robot arm. The first control methods gives the operator complete manual control by moving a holographic object which the robot arm copies (Direct control). The second control method allows the operator to...

Understanding human behavior in overtaking scenarios is crucial for enhancing road safety in mixed traffic with automated vehicles (AVs). Modeling plays a pivotal role in advancing our comprehension of human overtaking behavior in dynamically evolving scenarios. Currently, our understanding of overtaking behavior primarily revolves around...

As robots become increasingly popular and co-inhabit spaces with people, there is a need for designing robots that people are comfortable interacting with. For robots to successfully integrate into human society, it is important to design robots in a way that enhances the quality of the human-robot interaction. While the human-robot relationship...

During human motor control, sensory information is integrated, and the influence of each cue depends on its variance. Sensory weighting within the proprioceptive system, specifically between force and position feedback, including its stiffness dependency, has been demonstrated for the shoulder and digits. Both studies encompass upper limb joints...

While human control behavior is well-understood in continuous control tasks, little is known about how human operators detect sudden changes in the controlled element dynamics. This paper focuses on modeling this detection phase for pursuit tracking tasks. Potential triggers for the human operator to detect changes in the controlled element...

Severe muscle weakness is a symptom appearing in certain neuromuscular diseases (NMDs), such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), affecting people's daily lives by reducing functionality, decreasing independence, and reducing the ability to perform essential daily activities. This patient group might benefit from using active-assistive devices...

We propose a novel shared control interface that enables teleoperated teaching of both high-level decision-making skills and low-level impedance modulation skills using a single haptic device. In the proposed method, high-level teaching is achieved by repurposing the haptic device to remotely modify Behaviour Trees (BTs), allowing human...

Explainable AI (XAI) has gained increasing attention from more and more researchers with an aim to improve human interaction with AI systems. In the context of human-agent teamwork (HAT), providing explainability to the agent helps to increase shared team knowledge and belief, therefore improving overall teamwork. With various backgrounds and...

Immersive technologies are redefining user interactions in the evolving digital landscape, promising deeper and almost physical digital experiences (Alpers et al., 2020). Concurrently, the mobility world is undergoing a paradigm shift, with an emphasis on advanced autonomous solutions. Such autonomy enables users to reclaim and repurpose their...

In this study, we perform human identification using accumulated radar point clouds in an outdoor scene. We employ PointNet as classification network and explore the impact of adding radars' non-spatial features as input, namely doppler velocity and radar cross section (RCS). Furthermore, we encode time as an additional time identity dimension...

While robots and automation in general have been replacing humans in repetitive and routine labour for many years, the role of AI is considered to develop from mere tools to integral teammates. However, recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) are redefining the role of AI from being mere tools to becoming...

Hepatopancreato-biliary (HPB) surgeons, when planning complex cases of pancreatic cancer, lose precious time because of difficulties in visualising the interaction between tumour and blood vessels and identifying patient-specific anatomy. To tackle this issue, the Integrated Imaging Workstation (IIW) was prototyped by e/MTIC and Philips. This...

The world as we know it today has largely been shaped by human intervention. Given the importance of water in particular many small-scale interventions in the hydrological system have been applied. In order to predict and monitor how these interventions affect the hydrological cycle, hydrological research has to be performed. In this thesis,...
