提出人-蜂群交互评估框架,提升动态环境下的态势感知与任务表现。
A Study on Human-Swarm Interaction: A Framework for Assessing Situation Awareness and Task Performance
- 基于平板设计交互界面,量化操作员对蜂群状态的感知与判断。
- 多次实验显示任务表现持续提升,证明界面具备可学习性。
- 强调客观态势感知对主观感知和任务成效的关键作用,适配界面优化。
本文提出一种用于人-蜂群交互研究的框架,用于评估动态环境中的态势感知能力。通过开发基于平板的交互界面开展用户研究,操作员需引导机器人蜂群完成单目标搜索任务,并标记蜂群未知的危险区域。结合主观与客观态势感知测量方法,任务表现以机器人距离目标的接近程度为评估标准。研究发现:任务表现随尝试次数持续提升,表明界面具有可学习性;蜂群质心与活跃机器人的位置可作为有效的任务性能指标;感知与推断在任务表现中起关键作用,凸显其在界面设计中的重要性;客观态势感知同时影响主观感知与任务表现,强调界面应强化客观态势信息呈现。这些结果验证了该框架作为系统化整合态势感知概念于人-蜂群交互研究的有效性,可推广至其他蜂群研究中,用于评估界面可学性、识别有意义的任务性能指标,并优化界面设计以增强态势感知,最终提升动态环境中的人-蜂群交互效率。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This paper introduces a framework for human swarm interaction studies that measures situation awareness in dynamic environments. A tablet-based interface was developed for a user study by implementing the concepts introduced in the framework, where operators guided a robotic swarm in a single-target search task, marking hazardous cells unknown to the swarm. Both subjective and objective situation awareness measures were used, with task performance evaluated based on how close the robots were to the target. The framework enabled a structured investigation of the role of situation awareness in human swarm interaction, leading to key findings such as improved task performance across attempts, showing the interface was learnable, centroid active robot position proved to be a useful task performance metric for assessing situation awareness, perception and projection played a key role in task performance, highlighting their importance in interface design and objective situation awareness influenced both subjective situation awareness and task performance, emphasizing the need for interfaces that emphasise objective situation awareness. These findings validate our framework as a structured approach for integrating situation awareness concepts into human swarm interaction studies, offering a systematic way to assess situation awareness and task performance. The framework can be applied to other swarming studies to evaluate interface learnability, identify meaningful task performance metrics, and refine interface designs to enhance situation awareness, ultimately improving human swarm interaction in dynamic environments.
