   Abstract : Reduced independent mobility of blind and low-vision individuals (BLVIs) cause considerable societal cost, burden on relatives, and reduced quality of life for the individuals, including increased anxiety, depression symptoms, need of assistance, risk of falls, and mortality. Despite the numerous electronic travel aids proposed since at least the 1940’s, along with ever-advancing technology, the mobility issues persist. READ MORE

4. 12. Home care communication : moving beyond the surface

   Author : Jessica Höglander; Inger K. Holmström; Jakob Håkansson Eklund; Annelie J. Sundler; Bjöörn Fossum; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : communication; home care services; nursing staff; older persons; person-centred care; RIAS; VR-CoDES; Care Sciences; vårdvetenskap;

   Abstract : Communication is an essential part of care and human interaction. While communication within care entails both task-focused and socio-emotional elements, nurses are sometimes perceived as too task-focused. When in need of care, older persons want to be perceived and treated as individuals – to feel involved. READ MORE

5. 13. Datadriven Human Intention Analysis : Supported by Virtual Reality and Eye Tracking

   Author : Julius Pettersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; eye tracking; Virtual reality VR ; deep machine learning; time series analysis; psychological testing.; collaborative robots; human intention prediction; uncertainty estimation;

   Abstract : The ability to determine an upcoming action or what decision a human is about to take, can be useful in multiple areas, for example in manufacturing where humans working with collaborative robots, where knowing the intent of the operator could provide the robot with important information to help it navigate more safely. Another field that could benefit from a system that provides information regarding human intentions is the field of psychological testing where such a system could be used as a platform for new research or be one way to provide information in the diagnostic process.

6. 14. Gaze Based Human Intention Analysis

   Author : Julius Pettersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; eye tracking; psychological testing; Virtual reality VR ; deep machine learning; human intention prediction; collaborative robots; uncertainty estimation; time series analysis;

   Abstract : The ability to determine an upcoming action or what decision a human is about to take, can be useful in multiple areas, for example during human-robot collaboration in manufacturing, where knowing the intent of the operator could provide the robot with important information to help it navigate more safely. Another field that could benefit from a system that provides information regarding human intentions is the field of psychological testing where such a system could be used as a platform for new research or be one way to provide information in the diagnostic process.

7. 15. Real-Time Certified MPC : Reliable Active-Set QP Solvers

   Author : Daniel Arnström; Daniel Axehill; Anders Hansson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : In Model Predictive Control (MPC), optimization problems are solved recurrently to produce control actions. When MPC is used in real time to control safety-critical systems, it is important to solve these optimization problems with guarantees on the worst-case execution time. READ MORE
