AI-guided Adaptive Training Research

The Vision



Next-generation safety training that adapts in real-time to individual trainee performance using machine learning and behavioral analytics.

Instead of one-size-fits-all compliance training, we're developing systems that learn each person's decision patterns and adjust scenarios to their specific needs - optimizing learning effectiveness for every individual.

This vision is encapsulated in the Recursor Engine project.


The Problem for Industry



Nothing can replace interpersonal interaction and training--and no one should try. Nonetheless, supplementary instruction and knowledge transfer tools face a number of deficits, especially when it comes to remote delivery:
  • Static scenarios that don't adapt to individual skill levels
  • Limited behavioral data captured during training
  • No connection between training performance and on-job risk prediction
  • Compliance-focused rather than learning-focused
  • One-size-fits-all approach misses individual learning needs
The result? Training regimens that don't create behavioral change, and don't reduce incidents

The Problem for Medicine



For individuals who have suffered brain injury or mental trauma, returning to the workforce is a crucial aspect of recovery. Yet here, too, there are gaps in the tools used to address this problem.
  • Outpatient therapy: Expensive, limited availability
  • Generalized cognitive exercises: Don't transfer to work tasks
  • Vocational programs: limited by instructor availability, focus on job matching, less so rehabilitation


The Gap: No adaptive, work-task-based cognitive rehabilitation tools

A new approach



CoAxiom Services is conducting research into a new, AI-led method of instruction. In the system it plans to develop, trainees will participate in an iterative mode of training that leverages a behavioral feedback loop:
  • Trainees and patients take a training simulation that emulates real scenarios
  • During the training, data on trainee actions is recorded and aggregated
  • After each session, an AI performs analysis on this data and identifies key behavioral trends and construct predictive risk profiles
  • Parameters within the training simulation are then modified based on this analysis, to encourage desired behavior and discourage undesirable behavior
  • Trainee behavior in regards to the practiced tasks is thus guided, through this training loop, toward an optimal state


Current Foundation



We have a production browser-based driver safety training platform currently in use that will serve as the bedrock for the project. It currently features the necessary ingredients to begin building a research prototype:
  • Realistic 3D driving scenarios with decision points
  • Cloud infrastructure (Azure) operational and scalable
  • Performance tracking and behavioral data collection
This production platform provides the foundation for AI/ML integration and serves as our data collection infrastructure.
