Self-awareness concepts from psychology are inspiring new approaches for engineering computing systems which operate in complex dynamic environments. There has been a broad and long-standing interest in self-awareness for computing, but only recently has a systematic understanding of self-awareness and how it can be used and evaluated been developed. In this chapter, we take inspiration from hu...

Psychological science can benefit from and contribute to emerging approaches the computing information sciences driven by availability of real-world data advances in sensing computing. We focus on one such approach, machine-learned computational models (MLCMs)—computer programs learned data, typically with human supervision. introduce MLCMs discuss how they contrast traditional assessment psych...

Visual saliency is a cognitive psychology concept that makes some stimuli of a scene stand out relative to their neighbors and attract our attention. Computing visual saliency is a topic of recent interest. Here, we propose a graph-based method for saliency detection, which contains three stages: pre-processing, initial saliency detection and final saliency detection. The initial saliency map i...
