Personalized Assistant that Learns (PAL)
Program Manager: Mr. David Gunning
Goals:
The PAL program is focused on developing technologies that:
- Enable machines to learn and improve their basic functionality through the accumulation of experience (and not through being explicitly programmed).
- Can represent purpose/goals, system structure, and behavior, in order to allow a computational system to reflect on its own capabilities and performance.
- Allow the software to be instructed and guided using natural human-oriented communications (e.g., natural language, pictures, gestures).
- Have the ability of the software to use visual and auditory sensors to understand the user's situation (who is in the meeting, who is speaking, etc).
- Are integrated and result in fully functioning systems.
