“…When lead was added to the pilot model for the attitude control task, the surprising result figure was that system response was degraded in the region of high wn, as is shown in 9. As w a s t r u e f o r altitude control, the addition of lead eliminated all restriction in the region of low and negative wn.…”

“…The classical work of Birmingham and Taylor on visual/manual tracking, suggesting that the easiest policy for the operator to implement is a single gain, is an example of this approach to synthetising systems containing the human operator. 2 The human controller does have the equivalent of direct parameter adjustment through the use of language. However, the manipulation of the parameters of a control policy by Paper …”

SynopsisThe training of human operators for skilled tasks may be regarded as the synthesis of a specific controller from a general-purpose adaptive device, by influencing its adaption through selection and variation of the learning environment. Selection of environments to maximise the rate of learning is itself a control problem, and an automatic feedback training system is proposed which feeds back information about the operator's performance to control the parameters of his environment. The stability and performance of the trainer have been investigated both theoretically and experimentally, and its utility has been tested in a fairly realistic training situation using as trainees both human operators and computer-simulated learning machines.
