Computational Cultural Understanding
DARPA
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is soliciting innovative proposals in the following area of interest: building natural language processing technologies that recognize, adapt to, and recommend how to operate within the emotional, social, and cultural norms that differ across societies, languages, and group affinities. Proposed research should investigate innovative approaches that enable revolutionary advances in science, devices, or systems. Specifically excluded is research that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice.
