To investigate the influence of information about fellow group members in a constrained decision-making context, we develop four two-armed bandit tasks in which subjects freely select one of two options ( or ) and are informed of the resulting reward following each choice. Rewards are determined by the fraction of past choices by two functions (unknown to the subject) which...
The focus of the work in this paper is a systems-theoretic construction, analysis, and evaluation of a deterministic model of human decision making relative to experimental data. In sequential two-alternative forced choice decision tasks, a human subject is presented with two choices at every time step, is given finite time to select one of the choices, and receives a reward after a choice is made...
Due to the complex and relatively unpredictable nature of human behavior, customer service-based processes such as those featured in call centers, restaurants, and hotels can be challenging to model. The present study provides an example of using established theories of customer behavior, in combination with primary data collection, in a time and cost efficient way to model customer decision-making...
Humans make decisions on the basis of their situation awareness and it is well-known that insufficient situation awareness leads to incorrect decisions. The challenge of an advanced surveillance system for supporting situation awareness of a human decision maker is therefore to detect and assess complex situations that evolve over time. In this article, we present a conceptual framework for automatic...
During the recent years, a great change in engineering was replacing the conventional CAD/CAM/CAE systems with highly integrated product lifecycle management (PLM) systems. Earlier concentrations on specific fields of engineering replaced by a product concentration where an integrated product model has capability to accommodate all information needed during the lifecycle of the product from the first...
