Abstract

The project goal is to reduce the cost to a driver's attention and cognitive workload by maintaining a balance between a driver’s situational awareness and in-situ capability behind the wheel. When humans are overloaded, humans suffer from a lack of situation awareness, causing unsafe situations while driving. Adaptive information systems support users’ in-situ decision-making, especially in situations of high uncertainty.

We plan to develop a model that determines which information to convey to drivers in an attention-risk situation, and then assess the model based driver/driving states. When context-sensitive information is presented (e.g., navigation information and ads), we will model the perceived value of that information and determine the cost of presenting that information.
