基于感知编组的道路网自动提取研究

在简要介绍认知心理学和感知觉理论的基础上,提出了道路模型约束下的基于感知编组的道路网自动提取策略,其特点是利用全局特征约束条件对道路段局部编组结果进行迭代重组,并使用了启发式图搜索法A^*算法来辅助道路段的曲线连接。从而弥补了局部编组的缺点,极大地提高了道路提取的可靠性。     

Cognitive load while learning with a graphical computer interface

Abstract  Computer software packages are hard to learn but little is known about how to help new users. A study was made in which 30 learners had to learn the basic commands of a CAD software package using manuals with different formats of presentation of instructions. Ten learners learned using a conventional manual plus a computer, 10 learners learned using a manual with juxtaposed screen images but no computer and 10 learners learned using a manual with integrated screen images but no computer. Each learner was tested with a practical and a written test and the learning time was measured. There was no statistical difference between the groups of learners for the score of the practical and written tests. However, it was found that learners using a manual with juxtaposed or integrated screen images had learned twice as fast as learners using a conventional manual. The discussion questions the use of conventional manuals to learn application software and stress as the key role of the graphical environment in the learning process.

Towards real-time GOMS: a model of expert behaviour in a highly interactive task

We present an analysis of an expert performing a highly interactive computer task. The analysis uses GOMS models, specifying the Goals, Operators, Methods, and Selection rules used by the expert. Two models are presented, one with function-level operators which perform high-level functions in the domain, and one with keystroke-level operators which describe hand movements. For a segment of behaviour in which the expert accomplished about 30 functions in about 30 s, the function-level model predicted the observed behaviour well, while the keystroke-level model predicted only about half of the observed hand movements. These results, including the discrepancy between the models, are discussed.
