- Description
- Soldiers can be located in extreme environment and hazardous situations, and using VR associated with the conversation proves an extremely efficient way to train soldiers among various situations and environment, such as flight simulations, battlefield simulations, job training and etc. At present, most conversations embedded in virtual reality are typically structured interaction. This would allow conversations to take place and would be the normal method of communication. This form of conversation representation is restrictive, allowing for only a few predetermined responses to performing a few simple tasks. We can generalise these limitations in two prime categories. Firstly, lacks adaptive and dynamic conversation content. Predominantly automated conversations embedded into VR environment are driven by knowledge base (KB), which is typically developed with domain-specific requirements and assumptions that directly affect its architecture and implementation. Once knowledge base is developed it is not readily adaptable to other situations and scenarios. As the target of training keeps changing, conversations need to dynamically update. This cumbersome approach not only affects the overall efficiency of training or education but also majorly impacts the effectiveness, as the underlying engine fails to identify missing/required knowledge.Secondly a significant lack of relationship between conversational interface and knowledge. In the traditional approaches, there exists a clear separation between the knowledge and the inference of knowledge. This separation makes the knowledge generation on the fly a formidable task. Soldiers during training inevitably need to react based on conversation contents, so it should include behavioral abstractions rather than only information abstraction using natural language to impart their knowledge and train them in a highly effectual, seamless, efficient manner. These limitations provide an opportunity which motivates us to develop the next generation of conversation engine that is a cohesive unit of intelligent CLT (Control Language Interface) with assisted rule-based technology and adaptability at its core. The design of this conversation engine is intended to effectively identify the required knowledge for the soldiers while interacting and develop a broader range of contents with an agile delivery mechanism that can cater a wider scope defense situations and environment. We propose our approach that specifically addresses the above-mentioned limitations by targeting the following: 1.Identification of the missing/required knowledge of soldiers during VR military training to achieve personalized training. 2.Generation of interactive conversations based on multiple VR situations and environment. In our system, the interactive conversations will be dynamically changed and adaptive to various VR situations and environment. This unique and novel concept will enable the soldiers to invoke live knowledge generation during training as he/she explores additional information with experiences. Moreover, it will enhance and expand the core knowledge engine, by a wider range of contexts and their inter-matching connectivity to establish conversational flow in various domains of knowledge.

- Description
- Vietnam is facing overcrowding in central hospitals due to the disproportional distribution of health workforces in terms of both quantity and quality. In many rural and remote areas, the healthcare staff lack to access real-time, effective assistance, and realistic training provided by experts located centrally. It may lead to less effectiveness of health care services and additional costs for rural/ remote residents. UTAS Augmented Reality Remote Assistance system (UTAS-ARRA) is a solution developed by the Centre for Rural Health and the Human Interface Technology Laboratory, University of Tasmania. In this project, we will employ the UTAS-ARRA to improve the effectiveness of the remote situational tele-mentorship between central experts and rural/ remote less-experienced healthcare staff in Vietnam. The system aims to improve the response of rural/remote staff to manage patients under the assistance and guidance provided by central experts in real-time.

- Description
- This project will investigate fundamental knowledge in the area of Human Data Interaction (HDI) with Virtual Reality (VR) technology. The project's general aim is to answer the following fundamental questions:1) What aspects of the VR system design are most critical for effective exploration of complex data sets?2) How can multidimensionality and heterogeneity of large data sets be effectively interacted with using VR based control and display modalities?3) What kinds of HDI tasks are suitable with VR based systems and how does this compare to conventional interfaces?4) What are suitable metrics to quantify the effectiveness of VR based HDI?A key outcome of the project is, from the empirical data addressing the questions above, to establish a framework for HDI using VR technology.
