Human-Centered Design for Mining Equipment and New Technology
by Tim Horberry Robin Burgess-Limerick Lisa J. SteinerHuman-Centered Design for Mining Equipment and New Technology first introduces Human-Centered Design (HCD) and outlines the benefits of this approach for mining equipment and new technology: HCD is a process that aims to make equipment and systems more usable and acceptable by explicitly focusing on the end-user, their tasks and their work environment/use context. The book outlines three linked areas of mining HCD: key principles, examples of design processes, and what kinds of tools for data collection and evaluation are available. <P><P>The possible future uses of Human-Centered Design in more fully automated mining are presented, and the role of HCD within wider human system integration are outlined. The ‘how to’ nature of this book makes it attractive to mining equipment manufacturers, technology developers, mine site personnel, human factors researchers, safety scientists and regulators. <P><P>Features: <P><P>Includes an introduction useful to anyone wanting to learn about the field <P><P>Provides extensive case studies of HCD which also show failures when HCD was not considered <P><P>Covers cutting edge mining technology- such as proximity detection devices and new mining automation systems <P><P>Directly outlines the benefits of HCD for the minerals industry <P><P>Human-Centered Design for Mining Equipment and New Technology, through case studies, provides a much needed guide to undertaking HCD for mining equipment and new technology.

Human Compatible: Artificial Intelligence and the Problem of Control
by Stuart Russell"The most important book I have read in quite some time" (Daniel Kahneman); "A must-read" (Max Tegmark); "The book we've all been waiting for" (Sam Harris)A leading artificial intelligence researcher lays out a new approach to AI that will enable us to coexist successfully with increasingly intelligent machinesLonglisted for the 2019 Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year AwardIn the popular imagination, superhuman artificial intelligence is an approaching tidal wave that threatens not just jobs and human relationships, but civilization itself. Conflict between humans and machines is seen as inevitable and its outcome all too predictable. In this groundbreaking book, distinguished AI researcher Stuart Russell argues that this scenario can be avoided, but only if we rethink AI from the ground up. Russell begins by exploring the idea of intelligence in humans and in machines. He describes the near-term benefits we can expect, from intelligent personal assistants to vastly accelerated scientific research, and outlines the AI breakthroughs that still have to happen before we reach superhuman AI. He also spells out the ways humans are already finding to misuse AI, from lethal autonomous weapons to viral sabotage. If the predicted breakthroughs occur and superhuman AI emerges, we will have created entities far more powerful than ourselves. How can we ensure they never, ever, have power over us? Russell suggests that we can rebuild AI on a new foundation, according to which machines are designed to be inherently uncertain about the human preferences they are required to satisfy. Such machines would be humble, altruistic, and committed to pursue our objectives, not theirs. This new foundation would allow us to create machines that are provably deferential and provably beneficial.In a 2014 editorial co-authored with Stephen Hawking, Russell wrote, "Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, it might also be the last." Solving the problem of control over AI is not just possible; it is the key that unlocks a future of unlimited promise.

by Christos Troussas Akrivi Krouska Cleo SgouropoulouThis book explores the transformative roles of human-computer interaction (HCI) and augmented intelligence (AI) in shaping intelligent systems. HCI focuses on designing interactive systems that enhance human-technology relationships, while AI empowers users with adaptive, data-driven tools that complement decision-making. Together, these fields drive innovation, creating systems that are efficient, intuitive, and inclusive, addressing diverse user needs across various domains. Central to this work is the paradigm of interactive machine learning (IML), which builds on HCI and AI principles to create adaptive systems capable of evolving in real-time. The book highlights the application of IML in educational software, demonstrating how dynamic, personalized, and responsive learning environments can enhance student engagement and success. It provides detailed case studies and practical examples that showcase how IML aligns educational content, feedback, and interactions with learner behaviors and preferences. Additionally, it includes numerous Python code implementations and actionable design strategies, making these concepts accessible to practitioners and researchers alike. Key topics include leveraging cognitive and communication styles to shape adaptive systems, integrating learning models to enhance personalization, and addressing ethical considerations such as data privacy and algorithmic fairness. Readers will also discover discussions on creating personalized tutoring systems, collaborative platforms, and immersive environments that redefine educational technology. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, software developers, educators, instructional designers, and technologists at the intersection of human-computer interaction, augmented intelligence, and educational innovation. With its comprehensive framework and practical insights, it offers the tools to design adaptive, inclusive, and impactful learning systems for the future.
