Abstract:  With the emergence of cyber space, physical space, and social space, adaptive intelligence has become the key enabler of seamless integration across these domains, embodied in what are known as Cyber-Physical-Social Systems (CPSS). By personalizing the interactions between machine intelligence and human intelligence, CPSS can respond more effectively to the real-time needs of individuals and groups, presenting a wealth of potential for enhancing situation awareness across diverse fields. However, new challenges continue to arise in understanding and characterizing the intricate relations of machines, humans, and the natural world, all of which are vital for effective command and control. This talk will present perspectives of CPSS with the focus on solutions that address the dynamics of human interactions. Examples will include the use of AI-driven pedagogical agents in personalized learning environments and the visual analytic study of aviation safety data will be explored, highlighting how these systems can dynamically adapt to complex, data-rich environments for enhanced decision-making.
