Computational Model of Motion Sickness Describing the Effects of Learning Exogenous Motion Dynamics [PDF]
, 2020 The existing computational models used to estimate motion sickness are incapable of describing the fact that the predictability of motion patterns affects motion sickness. Therefore, the present study proposes a computational model to describe the effect of the predictability of dynamics or the pattern of motion stimuli on motion sickness.
