Dr. Nade Liang will join the Department of Industrial, Manufacturing, and Systems Engineering at Texas Tech University in September 2024. He works on cognitive engineering in human-machine and human-automation interactions, behavioral and physiological sensing, human behavior modeling in intelligent transportation systems, and human-computer interaction setups for a diverse population. His current research focuses on 1) eye-tracking and operator behavior-based task performance and decision-making modeling; 2) quantitative human behavior encoding and prediction, with a focus on visual attention allocation and body postures; 3) data-driven human-centered design, prototyping, and evaluation of human-machine and human-AI interfaces, supporting task performance and effective decision-making under various physical, visual and cognitive constraints. He serves as the program chair of the Perception and Performance Technical Group of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society for the 2023-2024 term.
