AN OPTIMIZATION MODEL OF USER INTERFACE FOR FLOOD CONTROL SUPPORTING

An optimization model of a user interface for flood control supporting is developed to analyze the human evaluation mechanism. In the design model proposed here, the evaluation function of the user interface is its users. The optimum combination of various types of display elements are automatically searched based on genetic algorithm (GA) according to the user's marking. GA-based optimum design model is applied to the selection of display information for the flood control of the Amagase dam reservoir for verification of the proposed theory.
