Predictive Displays

چکیده
Inexperienced helmsmen often oversteer because of the lag that occurs between changing the rudder angle and a change in the vessel’s heading. Predictive displays are a common way of mitigating the effect of lag on human control. Accordingly we developed a predictive display to show the position and heading of a vessel a short time in the future. With this display, the helmsman’s task becomes that of keeping the predictor on the planned path. In effect, the predictor is steered, not the vessel. Our predictive model was statistical and based on data gathered from a 40 foot survey vessel carrying out a variety of maneuvers while the position, heading, speed through the water and rudder angle were continuously recorded. The advantage of such a predictor is that it can, in principle, be generated automatically, without any need for a model of hull shape or vessel dynamics. We evaluated the predictor by having both experienced and inexperienced helmsmen steer a pre-defined figure-of-eight course. The results showed substantial reduction in cross track error for inexperienced participants to the point that their performance was indistinguishable from those that were more experienced.

How is spatial context learning integrated over signal versus noise? A primacy effect in contextual cueing.
Over repeated exposure to particular visual search displays, subjects are able to implicitly extract regularities that then make search more efficient-a phenomenon known as contextual cueing. Here we explore how the learning involved in contextual cueing is formed, maintained, and updated over experience. During an initial training phase, a group of signal first subjects searched through a seri...

متن کامل13.5: Linear Systems Analysis of CRT Displays
Many image quality metrics, including the MTF (Infante, 1985; O'Callaghan & Veron, 1987), the associated MTFA (Snyder, 1973), and the SQRI metric (Barten, 1987), take advantage of the predictive power of linear systems analysis by assuming that CRT displays can be characterized by a single point-spread function. The point-spread function and it's Fourier counterpart, the modulation transfer fun...
متن کاملPredictive tracking for head - mounted displays A dissertation proposal
First demonstrated in 1968 [Suther68], head-mounted displays [HMDs] have the potential to immerse a user inside a “virtual world,” where the user can view and interact with computer-generated three-dimensional environments. However, today’s systems far fall short of creating completely convincing virtual environments. Much work remains in overcoming limitations in the technologies that drive HM...
متن کاملLinear Predictive Coding as an Estimator of Volatility
Abstract In this paper, we present a method of estimating the volatility of a signal that displays stochastic noise (such as a risky asset traded on an open market) utilizing Linear Predictive Coding. The main purpose is to associate volatility with a series of statistical properties that can lead us, through further investigation, toward a better understanding of structural volatility as well ...
