Framework Of Malay Intelligent Autonomous Helper (Min@H): Text, Speech And Knowledge Dimension Towards Artificial Wisdom For Future Military Training System

Abstract

Industrial Revolution 4.0 is expected to improve the way of military training system. Most of the assistant systems use English for their Human Machine Interaction (HMI) such ‘SARA’ a virtual socially aware robot assistant which exclude Malay socio-emotional aspects. This scenario opens a suggestion, to internalize socio-emotional aspects based on Malay culture, custom and beliefs to military autonomous training systems (i.e. MIN@H) that can improve the ‘collaborative’ skills between Malaysian military personnel and the systems. Therefore, to increase the wisdom of the systems, they must have feature to capture information for their human users or helping human users to learn new knowledge and ensure the interaction is comfortable and engaging. For that reason, the systems must understand Malay language and be able to interpret emotion and expression behavior according to the Malay culture and custom, furthermore, the systems able to differentiate the level of user’s understanding and build a good rapport or feeling of harmony that makes communication possible or easy between the systems and users. This concept of the systems is referred as Malay Artificial Wisdom System (AWS). There are three fundamental aspects to achieve the AWS. First, to computationally model the conversational strategies and rapport between the system and human users based-on user’s understanding and system’s articulation. Second, to computationally model, recognize and synthesize the emotion and expression behavior according to the Malay culture, custom and beliefs. Third, the AWS can do analytical reasoning and responding in relation to falsehood analysis and users’ understanding level. Knowledge discovery and inference technique as well as HMI that cater the inputs and output of the MIN@H will be developed to accomplish the AWS concept. This program could embrace military training system in Malaysia to enhance military personnel skills and experts in various areas.
