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.


Mechanism Design for Multi-Type Housing Markets

AAAI Conferences

We study multi-type housing markets, where there are p โ‰ฅ 2 types of items, each agent is initially endowed one item of each type, and the goal is to design mechanisms without monetary transfer to (re)allocate items to the agents based on their preferences over bundles of items, such that each agent gets one item of each type. In sharp contrast to classical housing markets, previous studies in multi-type housing markets have been hindered by the lack of natural solution concepts, because the strict core might be empty. We break the barrier in the literature by leveraging AI techniques and making natural assumptions on agentsโ€™ preferences. We show that when agentsโ€™ preferences are lexicographic, even with different importance orders, the classical top-trading-cycles mechanism can be extended while preserving most of its nice properties. We also investigate computational complexity of checking whether an allocation is in the strict core and checking whether the strict core is empty. Our results convey an encouragingly positive message: it is possible to design good mechanisms for multi-type housing markets under natural assumptions on preferences.


How Perception Guides Production in Birdsong Learning

Neural Information Processing Systems

The passeriformes or songbirds make up more than half of all bird species and are divided into two groups: the os cines which learn their songs and sub-oscines which do not. Oscines raised in isolation sing degraded species typical songs similar to wild song. Deafened oscines sing completely degraded songs (Konishi, 1965), while deafened sub-oscines develop normal songs (Kroodsma and Konishi, 1991) indicating that auditory feedback is crucial in oscine song learning. Innate structures in the bird brain regulate song learning. For example, song sparrows show innate preferences for their own species' songs and song structure (Marler, 1991). Innate preferences are thought to be encoded in an auditory template which limits the sounds young birds may copy. According to the auditory template hypothesis birds go through two phases during song learning, a memorization phase and a motor phase.

The Computation of Sound Source Elevation in the Barn Owl

Neural Information Processing Systems

The midbrain of the barn owl contains a map-like representation of sound source direction which is used to precisely orient the head toward targets of interest. Elevation is computed from the interaural difference in sound level. We present models and computer simulations of two stages of level difference processing which qualitatively agree with known anatomy and physiology, and make several striking predictions. 1 INTRODUCTION

Neuronal Maps for Sensory-Motor Control in the Barn Owl

Neural Information Processing Systems

The bam owl has fused visual/auditory/motor representations of space in its midbrain which are used to orient the head so that visual or auditory stimuli are centered in the visual field of view.
