The Effect of Differing Degrees of Automation and Reliability on Simulated Luggage Screening Performance
… types of decision support systems in a simulated luggage screening task: An input aid and an output aid. An input aid supports an operator’s information gathering. An output aid supports decision making and action selection. A Time-Accuracy Function (TAF) analysis was applied to isolate processing …

Effects of Automation Failures During a Visual Inspection Task on Reliance and Visual Skill Acquisition: A Comparison Between Direct and Indirect Cueing
… automated aids of different reliabilities in a luggage screening task. A Direct Cue consisting of a green circle around a potential target directs attention to a specific part of the luggage image, while an Indirect Cue, consisting of a green border around an image determined to have a target, …

Effects of Information Source, Pedigree and Reliability on Operators' Utilization of Decision Support Systems
… diagnostic accuracy (high vs. low) in an airline luggage-screening task. Biases toward automation (observed in Study 1) led to greater dependence on 'novice' automated aids than on 'novice' human advisers. However, biases in favor of automation broke down when automated aids believed to be …

View synthesis for depth from motion 3D x-ray imaging.
… (KDEX) technique is designed to enhance the luggage screening at airport checkpoints. The technique requires multiple views of the luggage to be obtained from an arrangement of linear X-ray detector arrays. This research investigated a solution to the unique problems defined when considering …

Enhanced colour encoding of materials discrimination information for multiple view dual-energy x-ray imaging
… developed previously by the university team for luggage screening applications at security checkpoints. A primary motivation for this research is that the dual-energy X-ray techniques, which are routinely incorporated into ‘standard’ 2D luggage scanners, provide relatively crude materials …

Effects of Signal Ambiguity and Signal Location on Target Detection Under Varying Degrees of Time Constraint
… with deciding whether x-ray images of passenger luggage contained hazardous objects.</p> <p>The first objective of the study was to develop a methodology for quantifying optimizing versus satisficing tendencies in decision making through direct measurement and observation.</p> <p>The second …
