Bi-directionality in Human-ai Collaborative Systems. This item is unavailable.Bi-directionality in Human-ai Collaborative Systems

Bi-directionality in Human-AI Collaborative Systems investigates the foundations, metrics, and applications of human-machine systems, along with the legal ramifications of autonomy, including standards, trust by the public, and bidirectional trust by users and AI systems. The book addresses the challenges in creating synergistic human and AI-based autonomous system-of-systems by focusing on the underlying challenges associated with bi-directionality. Chapters cover advances in LLMs, logic, machine learning choices, the development of standards, as well as human-centered approaches to autonomous human-machine teams. This is a valuable resource for world-class researchers and engineers who are theorizing on, designing, and developing autonomous systems.

It will also be useful for government scientists, business leaders, social scientists, philosophers, regulators and legal experts interested in the impact of autonomous human-machine teams and systems.

• Investigates the challenges in creating synergistic human and AI-based autonomous system-of-systems
• Integrates concepts from a wide range of disciplines, including applied and theoretical AI, quantum mechanics, social sciences, and systems engineering
• Presents debates, models, and concepts of mutual dependency for autonomous human-machine teams, challenging assumptions across AI, systems engineering, data science, and quantum mechanics

William Lawless is professor of mathematics and psychology at Paine College, GA. For his PhD topic on group dynamics, he theorized about the causes of tragic mistakes made by large organizations with world-class scientists and engineers. After his PhD in 1992, DOE invited him to join its citizens advisory board (CAB) at DOE’s Savannah River Site (SRS), Aiken, SC. As a founding member, he coauthored numerous recommendations on environmental remediation from radioactive wastes (e.g., the regulated closure in 1997 of the first two high-level radioactive waste tanks in the USA). He is a member of INCOSE, IEEE, AAAI and AAAS. His research today is on autonomous human-machine teams (A-HMT). He is the lead editor of seven published books on artificial intelligence. He was lead organizer of a special issue on “human-machine teams and explainable AI” by AI Magazine (2019). He has authored over 85 articles and book chapters, and over 175 peer-reviewed proceedings. He was the lead organizer of twelve AAAI symposia at Stanford (2020). Since 2018, he has also been serving on the Office of Naval Research's Advisory Boards for the Science of Artificial Intelligence and Command Decision Making.

Ranjeev Mittu is the Branch Head for the Information and Decision Sciences Branch within the Information Technology Division at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL). He leads a multidisciplinary group of scientists and engineers conducting research and advanced development in visual analytics, human performance assessment, decision support systems, and enterprise systems. Mr. Mittu’s research expertise is in multi-agent systems, human-systems integration, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, data mining and pattern recognition; and he has authored and/or coedited eleven books on the topic of AI in collaboration with the national and international scientific communities spanning academia and defense. Mr. Mittu received a Master of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering in 1995 from The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD.
