InCOA: Human-machine-human collaboration in sketch-based mission planning
Matthew Greenberg, Alden Roberts, Gary Edwards, Paul Barros, Steven Fierro · 2009
A fundamental challenge in exploiting machine intelligence in human collaborative teams is the barrier between natural human-human communication (through speech and sketch) versus the symbolic structured discourse necessary for machine interpretation. Our hypothesis was that a layer of machine reasoning, exploiting situational context and doctrinal models, might induce a sufficiently rich symbolic description of the human-human discourse to enable machine-based reasoning in context of the collaborative problem solving.
