• PhD title: Dialogue with Autonomy and Adaptive Representation of Data and Decisions (DAURADD) / Dialogue avec l’Autonomie et Représentation Adaptative des Données et des Décisions (DAURADD)
• INUIT Theme 4 – Human-complex systems collaboration / La collaboration humain-systèmes complexes
• Thesis dates: 1/10/2024 – 31/09/2027
• Supervision: G. Coppin – É. Bouzekri – T. Coye de Brunélis (Thales)
• Context/Funding: CIFRE Thales
• General Goal:
  • To study translucent management of large amounts of data manipulated by operators when cooperating with AI
• Scientific challenges:
  • What are the effects of translucent representations on operators from a human factors point of view, such as visual attention or cognitive load?
  • Can we use “blur-generated behaviors” to better manage complex information and decision display?
• Keywords: translucency, autonomy, AI, cooperation, decision-making
