BACKGROUND Comprehensive geriatric assessment including cognitive assessment results in better outcomes and quality of life through facilitating access to support and further care. The National Audit of Dementia Care revealed too few patients were being assessed for cognition and therefore failing to receive adequate care. METHODS This was a retrospective clinical audit in a district general ...

In this research, we study the cognitive workload of aircraft pilots during a simulated takeoff procedure. We propose proof-of-concept setup environment to gather heart rate, pupil dilation, and brain data an A320 within simulator. Experiments were performed which collected 136 takeoffs across 13 for more than 9 hours time-series data. Moreover, paper investigates correlations between such exer...

Phase 1 of the IARPA program ICArUS (Integrated Cognitive-neuroscience Architectures for Understanding Sensemaking) requires a challenge problem that poses cognitive challenges of geospatial sensemaking (BAA, 2010). The problem serves as a modeling challenge for performers and enables assessment in T&E (Test and Evaluation) per BAA guidelines. This document describes the Phase 1 challenge probl...
