Advanced Multi-modal Intelligence for Remote Assistance

Objective

The business goal of AMIRA is to significantly improve the accessibility and resources available to support urgent and critical diagnostics and decisions that must be taken by mobile workers, operating individually or in multi-discipline collaborations, at their point of intervention in an event. The technical goal of AMIRA is to develop a set of reusable components using search, reasoning, speech dialogue technology and collaborative working techniques that can be used to create applications for use by mobile workers operating in safety or business critical situations in the field. The prototype application developed in AMIRA will be a wireless, easy to use, intelligent, real-time diagnostic and decision support system for mobile workers using multi-modal devices such as wireless earphone/microphone, PDA or UMTS phone. The focus of the work will be on providing multi-modal assistance at the point of intervention in time-critical, safety/business critical incidents. AMIRA will be demonstrated as providing a tool for the mobile worker in both fairly simple and highly complex scenarios. Building on the work and results of current and previous RTD projects, AMIRA will widen the applicability of advanced search and reasoning technologies to make it possible to access these through a speech dialogue interface. By coupling speech dialogue technologies with search and reasoning technologies, structural case based reasoning (CBR) will drive the intelligence behind the dialogue, generating the questions to be automatically answered. AMIRA will provide semantically based and context aware systems that can acquire, organise, share and reuse knowledge in structured and unstructured format. It will extend CBR with the ability to process trends in data, in order to be able to identify and recall cases with similar parameter shifts. Proof-of-concept trials will be conducted in safety-critical (through Fire Service College) and business-critical (through DaimlerChrysler) situations.
