About the School

Situation Awareness in Cognitive Technologies is a trending research direction that gained a lot of interest from the industry in recent years. Situation awareness is the key to providing the best possible user experience and supplying the user with the most relevant content - by establishing a grounded assessment of interactions, actions, etc., based on the environmental elements and corresponding events. With the astonishing development of the field of machine learning, especially of deep learning, one of the important aspects of the situation awareness of the machine learning models is by means of explainability. Therefore, this "summer" school this autumn aims to present the fundamental aspects of situation awareness in cognitive technologies, which can be discussed in an interdisciplinary context, and will mainly be focusing on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) and Explainable AI (XAI). Going with the theme of this year’s ICHMS 2022, the school will also be focusing on the topic of “human-autonomy teaming” in different areas – robotics, industry 4.0, autonomous driving, even medicine. To make this school an interactive learning experience, we would encourage the participants to share their research presentations (posters) related to the above-mentioned topics.
