Resumen
Urban Air Mobility (UAM) has emerged in response to increasing traffic demands. As UAM involves commercial flights in complex urban areas, well-established automation technologies are critical to ensure a safe, accessible, and reliable flight. However, the current level of acceptance of automation is insufficient. Therefore, this study sought to objectively detect the degree of human trust toward UAM automation. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals, specifically Event-Related Potentials (ERP), were employed to analyze and detect operators? trust towards automated UAM, providing insights into cognitive processes related to trust. A two-dimensional convolutional neural network integrated with an attention mechanism (2D-ACNN) was also established to enable the end-to-end detection of trust through EEG signals. The results revealed that our proposed 2D-ACNN outperformed other state-of-the-art methods. This work contributes to enhancing the trustworthiness and popularity of UAM automation, which is essential for the widespread adoption and advances in the UAM domain.
