At the SRA AI Center, we focus on building the next-generation human assistant powered by voice interaction. I am Vijay Srinivasan, the Head of the Knowledge and Dialog Lab within the AI Center at SRA. We have two major complementary research themes within our team. Firstly, we have a language AI theme focusing on solving problems, such as spoken natural language understanding, natural language generation, and multi-turn dialog systems. Secondly, we have a knowledge theme, which includes (a) exploring how to leverage external world/domain knowledge and personal knowledge in deep learning-based language AI solutions such as natural language generation for proactive voice interactions and (b) knowledge discovery and mining from various sources, including phone usage and sensor data, visual documents, and user voice interactions with the phone.
