Computational Cultural Understanding (CCU)*

Abstract

*Formerly Culturally-aware IO Defense (CLAID) The Computational Cultural Understanding (CCU) program is creating cross-cultural language understanding technologies to improve a DoD operator's situational awareness and interactional effectiveness. CCU natural language processing technologies will recognize, adapt to, and recommend how to operate within the emotional, social, and cultural norms that differ across societies, languages, and group affinities. To support diverse and emergent use cases, CCU technologies will be engineered to require minimal-to-no training data in a local culture, while maximizing operator success during negotiations and other interactions in the field. CCU will create new component technologies for the discovery of sociocultural norms, cross-cultural emotion recognition, and communicative change detection. The program will incorporate these component technologies into a prototype platform to assist military users with cross-cultural dialogue.
