Thematic Collection on Applications of Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science in Design
Guest Editors: Ji Han (University of Exeter, UK), Peter Childs (Imperial College London, UK), Jianxi Luo (SUTD, Singapore)
Great progress has been made to date in applying neurophysiological and biometric measures, such as eye-tracking (ET), electroencephalogram (EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), and heart rate variability (HRV), in the design domain to study human design cognition. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) has enabled the discovery of patterns in large and complex datasets, such as brain signals and eye-tracking data, for addressing a wide range of applications. Bringing together AI and cognitive science have thereby offered methods and approaches to study design from new perspectives. This provides researchers with the opportunity to better utilise the cognitive data acquired, help unlock the inner workings of the designer’s brain, and drive design research forward.
This Thematic Collection aims to attract research studies on the advances in applying AI techniques and cognitive science for the analysis and exploration of design. Innovative contributions in conceptual, theoretical and empirical aspects are all welcome. Topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Cognitive analysis for design
- Computer-aided design
- Design creativity
- Design evaluation
- Design methods and tools
- Emotional Design
- Human-computer interaction
- Neurocognition in design
- Neurophysiological and biometric measures in design
- Neuroscience for design
- Personalised design
- Virtual, augmented, and mixed reality for design
