Trust in Shared Automated Vehicles: Study on Two Mobility Platforms

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The ever-increasing adoption of shared transportation modalities across the United States has the potential to fundamentally change the preferences and usage of different mobilities. It also raises several challenges with respect to the design and development of automated mobilities that can enable a large population to take advantage of this emergent technology. One such challenge is the lack of understanding of how trust in one automated mobility may impact trust in another. Without this understanding, it is difficult for researchers to determine whether future mobility solutions will have acceptance within different population groups. This study focuses on identifying the differences in trust across different mobility and how trust evolves across their use for participants who preferred an aggressive driving style. A dual mobility simulator study was designed in which 48 participants experienced two different automated mobilities (car and sidewalk). The results found that participants showed increasing levels of trust when they transitioned from the car to the sidewalk mobility. In comparison, participants showed decreasing levels of trust when they transitioned from the sidewalk to the car mobility. The findings from the study help inform and identify how people can develop trust in future mobility platforms and could inform the design of interventions that may help improve the trust and acceptance of future mobility.

Hypothesis testing is the most misunderstood concept. Let's try to understand the concept with a very simple example. Hypothesis testing is nothing but, checking whether your assumption is correct or not based on your data record. An example to make you more clear picture.

Monitoring Trust in Human-Machine Interactions for Public Sector Applications

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The work reported here addresses the capacity of psychophysiological sensors and measures using Electroencephalogram (EEG) and Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) to detect levels of trust for humans using AI-supported Human-Machine Interaction (HMI). Improvements to the analysis of EEG and GSR data may create models that perform as well, or better than, traditional tools. A challenge to analyzing the EEG and GSR data is the large amount of training data required due to a large number of variables in the measurements. Researchers have routinely used standard machine-learning classifiers like artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machines (SVM), and K-nearest neighbors (KNN). Traditionally, these have provided few insights into which features of the EEG and GSR data facilitate the more and least accurate predictions - thus making it harder to improve the HMI and human-machine trust relationship. A key ingredient to applying trust-sensor research results to practical situations and monitoring trust in work environments is the understanding of which key features are contributing to trust and then reducing the amount of data needed for practical applications. We used the Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations (LIME) model as a process to reduce the volume of data required to monitor and enhance trust in HMI systems - a technology that could be valuable for governmental and public sector applications. Explainable AI can make HMI systems transparent and promote trust. From customer service in government agencies and community-level non-profit public service organizations to national military and cybersecurity institutions, many public sector organizations are increasingly concerned to have effective and ethical HMI with services that are trustworthy, unbiased, and free of unintended negative consequences.
