The book addresses the intelligent evolution of Human-Computer interaction (HCI) in aircraft cockpits, following the technological trajectory from complementary to hybrid human-computer intelligence. It systematically elaborates on semantic modeling of HCI information, network modeling of interactive systems, and multi-modal design methods (touch, voice, somatosensory, and eye-based interactions), alongside techniques for abnormal behavior monitoring, intent recognition, interface reconfiguration, workload balancing, and evolutionary game-theoretic collaboration mechanisms. By integrating fundamental principles, modeling theories, and key technologies, the book provides scientific foundations, theoretical support, and practical solutions for HCI design, evaluation, airworthiness verification, and certification in aircraft cockpits. Targeted at researchers and engineers in aviation human factors, cockpit system design, and airworthiness engineering, its content balances theoretical rigor with engineering applicability, catering to both academic exploration and industrial practice. Notable strengths include its holistic coverage of hybrid HCI technologies, cross-disciplinary integration of ergonomics, game theory, and airworthiness science, and actionable frameworks for real-world cockpit innovation.
