Dynamic Monitoring

  • Visual encoding
  • Eye movements
  • Decision making

– Is what is encoded a target? – What should be encoded next?

  • Mouse movements & clicking
  • Often involves coordinating with another

individual

Cognitively Bounded Rational Analysis

  • 1. Specify the architecture & environment

– Info available to process; – Processing constraints; – Explicit utility function;

  • 2. Specify space of possible task strategies
  • 3. Compute expected subjective utilities
  • 4. Determine strategies with highest payoff

& compare to human data

  • Cognitively bounded rational searcher
  • Scaled down task – find the O:
  • Constraints:

– Foveated vision  Limited encoding in periphery – Feature noise  red or green? X or O? – Spatial noise  at which position?

Optimal Integration

  • Update posterior probabilities

– Across all possible displays – Given sample from current fixation location

  • Probability that a display

contains the target for all displays

16

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Decision Variable Calculation

  • Two decision variables:

– Present: sum over posteriors for all displays that contain a target – Absent: sum over posteriors for all displays that DO NOT contain a target

  • Threshold

– Set to 0.85 – Potential for strategic variability

17

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Different Strategies

  • Intelligent:

– Sequential – start at a location and move from left to right, and back around, until threshold reached – Posterior Driven – next fixation at location most likely to contain the target

  • Unintelligent:

– Random – uniform; sample location w/replacement

What about salience?

  • Salience makes similar

predictions

– But only with explicit IOR – And aid from uncertainty for decision threshold

  • Hence, really salience+

Differentiating b/t the Models

26

  • Find a target (e.g., X):
  • Parafoveal calibration procedure to help account for

individual differences of the bounds in periphery

  • Results will:
  • Differentiate between two potential models
  • Indicate appropriate bounds for monitoring model

  • 3 models, 2 developed, 1 under

development

  • Experiment to differentiate b/t models
  • Stay tuned

– Had a video teaser, but tough to run from Dayton…

Summary

  • Adaptive visibility model for monitoring

– Empirical study to distinguish b/t it and salience

  • Motor control models for moving and

clicking under development

– 3 models – more on this next year

  • Integration of perceptual and motor

models

– Exploring the use of POMDPs

  • Empirically investigate robust human

behavior during visual monitoring

  • Rigorously test cognitively bounded

rational analysis as a principled solution

  • Identify bounds on relevant processes
  • Apply bounds to processes
  • Determine optimal behavior given bounds
  • Compare cognitively bounded optimal

behavior to empirical data

  • Understanding of how humans achieve

robust adaptation will facilitate the design

  • f systems they operate
  • An understanding of robust human

adaptation will help toward the development of training curricula and methodology
