The assessment and prediction of cognitive performance is a key issue for any discipline
concerned with human operators in the context of safety-critical behavior. Most of the …

Although blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging
(fMRI) is a widely available, non-invasive technique that offers excellent spatial resolution, it …

Recent advances in neuroscience have paved the way to innovative applications that
cognitively augment and enhance humans in a variety of contexts. This paper aims at …

Abstract Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) maps human brain function by
measuring and imaging local changes in hemoglobin concentrations in the brain that arise …

In the last decade, virtual reality (VR) training has been used extensively in video games
and military training to provide a sense of realism and environmental interaction to its users …

Motor‐activity‐related mental tasks are widely adopted for brain‐computer interfaces (BCIs)
as they are a natural extension of movement intention, requiring no training to evoke brain …

Shutdown maintenance, ie, turning off a facility for a short period for renewal or replacement
operations is a highly stressful task. With the limited time and complex operation procedures …

The understanding of the brain functioning in the real world is the next frontier: discovering
its operational principles, architectural design, and internal mechanisms are attributed as a …

There is growing interest for implementing tools to monitor cognitive performance in
naturalistic work and everyday life settings. The emerging field of research, known as …

Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a neuroimaging technique that uses near-
infrared light to monitor brain activity. Based on neurovascular coupling, fNIRS is able to …
