Autonomous driving will provide higher traffic safety, meet climate-related issues due to energy-saving mobility, and offer more comfort for drivers. To ensure reliable and safe autonomous traffic, and to provide efficient and time-critical mobility services, data exchange between road users and systems is essential. In public perception, however, sharing data and information may pose a challenge due to perceived privacy restrictions. In this paper, we address user perceptions and their acceptance towards data and information distribution in autonomous driving. In a multi-step empirical procedure, qualitative (focus groups, guided interviews) and quantitative approaches (questionnaire-study) were combined. The findings reveal that autonomous driving is commonly seen as a highly useful and appreciated technology. Though individual risk perceptions and potential drawbacks are manifold, mainly described in terms of data security and privacy-related issues. The findings contribute to research in human-automation interaction, technical development, and public communication strategies.

This paper presents a new method to describe spatio-temporal relations between objects and hands, to recognize both interactions and activities within video demonstrations of manual tasks. The approach exploits Scene Graphs to extract key interaction features from image sequences while simultaneously encoding motion patterns and context. Additionally, the method introduces event-based automatic video segmentation and clustering, which allow for the grouping of similar events and detect if a monitored activity is executed correctly. The effectiveness of the approach was demonstrated in two multi-subject experiments, showing the ability to recognize and cluster hand-object and object-object interactions without prior knowledge of the activity, as well as matching the same activity performed by different subjects.

The present contribution investigates the effects of spoken language varieties, in particular non-standard / regional language compared to standard language (in our study: High German), in social robotics. Based on (media) psychological and sociolinguistic research, we assumed that a robot speaking in regional language (i.e., dialect and regional accent) would be considered less competent compared to the same robot speaking in standard language (H1). Contrarily, we assumed that regional language might enhance perceived social skills and likability of a robot, at least so when taking into account whether and how much the human observers making the evaluations talk in regional language themselves. More precisely, it was assumed that the more the study participants spoke in regional language, the better their ratings of the dialect-speaking robot on social skills and likeability would be (H2). We also investigated whether the robot's gender (male vs. female voice) would have an effect on the ratings (RQ). H1 received full, H2 limited empirical support by the data, while the robot's gender (RQ) turned out to be a mostly negligible factor. Based on our results, practical implications for robots speaking in regional language varieties are suggested.

Miniature asymmetric visual evoked potential (aVEP) induced by very small lateral visual stimuli is a comfortable stimulation paradigm. It could only induce a miniature potential about 0.5 μV in amplitude, which could be challenging to detect. Most decoding methods based on miniature aVEP are machine learning approaches, and deep learning methods have not yet been introduced. Therefore, this paper introduces deep learning techniques for the first time and designs a lightweight convolutional neural network. Specifically, depthwise convolution is employed to reduce the number of network parameters and extract temporal and spatial features from EEG signals. The model achieves an average classification accuracy of 78.48% on the miniature aVEP dataset, which is 1.14% higher than the previous state-of-the-art model, DCPM. Through comparison with other deep learning models in terms of parameter count, computational complexity, and classification accuracy, it is evident that the proposed model surpasses them in all these aspects The results suggest that the CNN model proposed in this study achieves high classification accuracy while demanding fewer computational resources. Although the network model we proposed is very simple, it can achieve good results in processing miniature aVEP. In future research, we will continue to improve this lightweight network to enhance its decoding performance for miniature aVEP.
