Internal Costumer Satisfaction: Turkish Air Traffic Control Services

Air Traffic Control

This project simulates the movement of aircraft through a region of airspace surrounding an airfield. The task involves modelling the various aircraft, airfield and airspace, as well as their various properties and movements. In addition, it is hoped to model the interactions between various aircraft, such as collision avoidance and convoy-style flight. The project utilises the relational aspec...

Dialogues in Air Traffic Control

We have taken an off-the-shelf, commercial continuous speech recogniser and conducted evaluations for the domain of Air Traffic Control. The language of this domain proved to be quite unrestricted, contrary to our initial intuitions. Our experiments show that constraints typically used by speech recognisers do not provide accurate enough results and need to be augmented with other knowledge sou...

Even if an accurate quantification of the contribution of fatigue in accidents is currently impossible because fatigue is not systematically investigated by a standardised procedure, it is classified as one of the “most wanted” factors by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB): “The Safety Board has long been concerned about t...
