| Summary / Zusammenfassung | The visual interpretation of x-ray images is an important task in airport security, radiology and other types of visual inspection. In this project we investigate effects of age on the visual interpretation of x-ray images by humans. Of particular interest is the relationship between age, training effects, visual abilities and employed strategies. Weitere Informationen |
