Title: Immersive Intelligence: Merging AI, Human Factors, and XR Technologies for Next-Gen Training and Simulation
Abstract: In an era where technology is rapidly transforming education and training, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Human Factors, and Extended Reality (XR) offers excellent opportunities to enhance learning experiences and performance. This keynote presentation will cover examples from diverse projects incorporating innovative approaches to developing adaptive, immersive, and personalized training solutions and simulation for complex and dynamic work environments such as construction. By incorporating human cognitive, perceptual, and behavioral dynamics, simulations and training programs can achieve higher efficacy and adaptability across diverse industries, which not only simulate reality but also enhance human performance and safety in critical tasks.
Bio: Sogand Hasanzadeh, Ph.D. is a director of the Intelligent-Inclusive-Safe (I2SAFE) lab and an Assistant Professor at the Lyles School of Civil Engineering and Construction Engineering and Management at Purdue University. She received Ph.D. from Virginia Tech in Civil Engineering, and two M.Sc. in Construction Engineering and Management from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Shahid Beheshti University, Iran. Her research focuses on advancing smart construction safety and building smart communities through the application of cyber-physical-human systems, human factors, wearable sensors, VR/AR/MR/XR, robotics, and AI. Her interdisciplinary work is looking for creating a shared language between civil engineering, data science, computer science, human factor, and cognitive/behavioral psychology that leads to more informed engineering solutions in response to the current and future challenges in complex construction projects. Her research studies are sponsored by NSF, several DOTs, construction companies, and the Electri International. Her work also has repeatedly been recognized nationally and internationally.
