Teams composed of aviation professionals are crucial for maintaining a safe and efficient airport environment. This research evaluates the impact of an enhanced communication protocol on cognitive workload under adverse weather conditions and develops a human-centered classification model for identifying hazardous meteorological conditions. The findings indicate that reduced visibility significantly increases subjective workload, but inclusion of turning direction information in communications does not intensify cognitive workload. The proposed Bayesian neural network-based classification model outperforms other algorithms in identifying potentially hazardous weather conditions.
Teams formulated by aviation professionals are essential in maintaining a safe and efficient aerodrome envi- ronment. Nonetheless, the shared situational awareness between the flight crews under adverse weather con- ditions might be impaired. This research aims to evaluate the impact of a proposed enhancement in communication protocol on cognitive workload and develop a human-centred classification model to identify hazardous meteorological conditions. Thirty groups of subjects completed four post-landing taxiing tasks under two visibility conditions (CAVOK/CAT IIIA) while two different communication protocols (presence/absence of turning direction information) were adopted by the air traffic control officer (ATCOs). Electroencephalography (EEG) and the NASA Task Load Index were respectively used to reflect the pilot's mental state and to evaluate the pilot's mental workload subjectively. Results indicated that impaired visibility increases the subjective workload significantly, while the inclusion of turning direction information in the ATCO's instruction would not signifi- cantly intensify their cognitive workload. Mutual information was used to quantitatively assess the shared situational awareness between the pilot flying and the pilot monitoring. Finally, this research proposes a human - centred approach to identify potentially hazardous weather conditions from EEG power spectral densities with Bayesian neural networks (BNN). The classification model has outperformed other baseline algorithms with an accuracy of 66.5%, an F1 score of 61.4%, and an area under the ROC of 0.749. Using the concept of explainable AI with Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) values, the exploration of latent mental patterns formulates novel knowledge to gain insights into the vital physiological indicators of the pilots in response to different scenarios from the BNN model. In the long term, the model facilitates the decision regarding the necessity of providing automation and decision-making aids to pilots.
