Abstract

Adaptive systems typically comprise components that interrelate and interact to enable the whole system to respond and adjust to changes in the environment, operator, and task in order to regulate or maintain a level of performance or homeostasis. In so doing, they enable a degree of individualization and customization for many technological innovations such as managing the use of automation. Adaptive systems often involve some kind of feedback or closed-loop which requires a criteria for determining invoking thresholds, as well as some type of classification algorithm that models the type of changes to which the system has to adapt. This paper outlines the issues, considerations, and challenges associated with classification in adaptive systems, and reviews several algorithms that implement the feedback loop in neuro-ergonomic applications. These include logistic regression, Naïve-Bayes, artificial neural networks (ANN), and support vector machines (SVM) techniques.
