Systematic assessment of intrinsic factors influencing visual attention performances in air traffic control via clustering algorithm and statistical inference.

ABSTRACT: The intrinsic factors (IF) influencing visual attention performance (VAP) might cause potential human errors, such as "error/mistake", "forgetting" and "omission". It is a key issue to develop a systematic assessment of IF in order to distinguish the levels of VAP. Motivated by the Stimulus-Response (S-R) model, we take an interactive cancellation test-Neuron Type Test (NTT)-to explore the IF and present the corresponding systematic assessment. The main contributions of this work include three elements: a) modeling the IF on account of attention span, attention stability, distribution-shift of attention with measurable parameters by combining the psychological and statistical concepts; b) proposing quantitative analysis methods for assessing the IF via its computational representation-intr
