The current NPSNET submarine simulator interface is not a viable training tool because it utilizes a control panel which rims as a separate process and includes three separate tabs, one each for the Officer of the Deck, Helm, and Weapons Officer. Besides lacking immersion qualities, most of the control icons and prototypes are not functional. Our approach was to mount human entities to the submarine that can control and maneuver the submarine entity by interacting with various objects onboard...

Sherlock I was written in Xerox Lisp, using an object-oriented programming tool called Loops. When we began planning Sherlock II, it was already clear that the specialized hardware environments needed for the first generation of cognitive technology tools was beginning to pose serious barriers to the diffusion of the ideas in those tools. We decided that we would do future development work on standard workstation platforms with broad presence in the commercial world. the Air Force Desktop...

Sight is the most important sense in the decision-making process: 85% of the information we receive comes from what we see. Traditionally, simulators aim to focus on reproducing critical situation as best as possible. They are more focused on representing the 3D environment when moving than real perception of the scene. Faithfully simulating visual perception is the goal of the technology presented in this paper. Thanks to two research and development projects, in simulators and in realtime...

Unsupervised machine learning methods such as clustering and change detection are indispensable to various real-world data processing tasks. However, due to its vague formulation, studies of unsupervised learning tend to be ad-hoc, and thus development of unsupervised learning methods is still far behind supervised learning. The project aims at overcoming this difficulty by providing a systematic approach to unsupervised learning based on information measures. The PI and his group developed...

Clark (1996) has identified common ground-information we take to be shared with others-as an indispensable requisite for everything people do with each other where language use or, more definitively, a collaborative use of meaning and understanding is involved. In interactive software development, though, theory and practice have placed little emphasis on the role and importance of this crucial aspect of cognition in user interactions, with the result that user interface and interaction designs...

The study of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) has undergone 30 years of intense development and has grown into a rich and diverse field. BCIs are technologies that enable direct communication between the human brain and external devices. Conventionally, wet electrodes have been employed to obtain unprecedented sensitivity to high-temporal-resolution brain activity; recently, the growing availability of various sensors that can be used to detect high-quality brain signals in a wide range of...

Immersive VEs (IVEs) have had difficulty simulating large-scale environments because they typically have a limited tracking area. This research study techniques has established that IVEs which incorporate a wearable rendering unit can simulate virtual worlds of unlimited size. The work has overcome the physical space constraints of wearable IVEs by developing and implementing Redirected Walking (RDW). RDW works by imperceptibly rotating the virtual scene around the user's viewpoint so that the...

Semantically-powerful views, formatted program text, and structural operations on programs are powerful tools for helping users understand and edit programs. The Pan Program Presenter provides these facilities, including elision and display of program annotations, in an incremental, portable implementation. It provides novel languages for specifying program appearance, including both a succinct, easy-to-use form and a more powerful, extensible form.

We participated in two tracks: Knowledge Base Acceleration (KBA) Track and Session Track. In the KBA track, we focused on experimenting with different approaches as it is the first time the track is launched. We experimented with supervised and unsupervised retrieval models. Our supervised approach models include language models and a string-learning system. Our unsupervised approaches include using: 1)DBpedia labels and 2) Google-Cross-Lingual Dictionary (GCLD). While the approach that uses...

In emergency response, gathering intelligence is still largely a manual process despite advances in mobile computing and multi-touch interaction. The labor-intensive nature of this process means that the information digested by personnel going into the field is typically an operational period old. In a day where satellite photography and mobile connectivity is becoming ubiquitous in our digital lives, it is alarming to find this is the state of the practice for most disciplines of emergency...

The user interface is a crucial, but often overlooked, part of the computer and software package. It is often the last thing designed. Short term memory aids and session pacing are two of the most important areas in which the machine can assist the user. Inclusion of a screen pointing device brings the computer closer to communicating on human terms. Basing the interface on a common metaphor, e.g. a desk top, can make it easy to learn and use. In this thesis three facets of the interface are...

Packing high-dimensional data into comprehensible visualizations is difficult. A number of techniques exist to composite multiple layers of data. However, these techniques require a lot of parameter manipulation to achieve an image in which each layer can be segmented from the others over the entire surface. We propose an interactive multi-view system for creating multi-layer composites and setting the parameters of the data mapping in real-time. We developed efficient, hardware-accelerated...

Decades of heavy investment in laboratory-based brain imaging and neuroscience have led to foundational insights into how humans sense, perceive, and interact with the external world. However, it is argued that fundamental differences between laboratory-based and naturalistic human behavior may exist. Thus, it remains unclear how well the current knowledge of human brain function translates into the highly dynamic real world. While some demonstrated successes in real-world neurotechnologies are...

Our main method involves detailed representation of the dialogue context, separating domain, language, and dialogue...

Previous research in non-invasive brain measurement could only predict that two (or more) user states differed from...

Recent studies have shown that neural activity in auditory cortex encodes the envelope of speech, and that this encoding is more robust for attended speech than for unattended speech during multi-speaker (cocktail party) situations. To determine if this effect could form the basis for a novel brain-computer interface (BCI), we investigated the accuracy with which a subject's locus of attention during a cocktail party task could be ascertained from envelope responses present within single trials...

Making sense of information on computers is notoriously difficult because of limited size displays. Two interface techniques used to cope with these limitations are zooming and overview+detail. To evaluate these techniques, we ran a user study comparing a Zoomable User Interface (ZUI) and a folder-based overview+detail interface. The task used in the study required subjects to organize shapes into groups based on common visual properties. The study results showed 30% faster completion times...
