This is a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award. The research component will employ eye tracking and other means to infer the cognitive processes of people engaged in particular tasks, and will develop a computational framework, called mind-tracking architecture, for mapping observed actions to the unobserved thoughts that produce them. This work will draw upon existing psychology and engineering research and synthesize these efforts into a unified methodology. The project will employ two frameworks at different levels to achieve mind tracking: the production-system architecture ACT-R and cognitive grammars that represent behavior as rules from intentions to actions. Three specific application areas will motivate, demonstrate, and test the methodology: intelligent tutoring, automobile driver assistance, and assistive technology for the disabled. The educational component will develop a new human-computer interaction curriculum and an outreach program to foster communication among students, researchers and industry professionals.This CAREER award recognizes and supports the early career-development activities of a teacher-scholar who is likely to become an academic leader of the twenty-first century. Each of the three application areas has the potential for significant benefit to members of the general public: students, drivers, and the disabled.

这是一个教师早期职业发展（Career）奖。研究部分将采用眼动追踪和其他手段来推断从事特定任务的人的认知过程，并将开发一个称为思维追踪架构的计算框架，用于将观察到的行为映射到产生这些行为的未观察到的思想。这项工作将借鉴现有的心理学和工程学研究，并将这些努力综合成一个统一的方法。该项目将采用两个不同层次的框架来实现思维跟踪：生产系统架构ACT-R和将行为表示为从意图到行动的规则的认知语法。三个具体的应用领域将激励、演示和测试这种方法：智能辅导、汽车驾驶辅助和残疾人辅助技术。教育部分将开发一个新的人机交互课程和一个外展计划，以促进学生、研究人员和行业专业人员之间的交流。该奖项旨在表彰和支持有可能成为21世纪学术领袖的教师学者的早期职业发展活动。这三个应用领域中的每一个都有可能为普通公众带来重大利益：学生、司机和残疾人。
