About
David C. Horney is a researcher focused on the intersection of human factors and autonomous systems, particularly within the emerging field of human-autonomy teaming. His work addresses the critical challenge of designing flexible human performance models that enable effective collaboration between humans and intelligent machines. In his notable pilot study, "Human-Autonomy Teaming Using Flexible Human Performance Models: An Initial Pilot Study" (2016), Horney laid foundational groundwork for understanding how adaptive models can predict and support human behavior in dynamic, team-based environments with autonomous agents. Though his most-cited paper has garnered 8 citations, its influence is significant in shaping early discourse on human-machine interaction and performance modeling. Horney’s contributions are particularly relevant for researchers and practitioners in aerospace, defense, and robotics, where seamless human-autonomy coordination is paramount. By bridging cognitive modeling with real-world teaming scenarios, his work offers a practical framework for enhancing safety, efficiency, and trust in increasingly autonomous systems.
