Scientific Context
The operation of complex equipment, particularly in the nuclear sector, relies on quick and secure access to heterogeneous data. Advances in generative AI, combined with Digital Twins (DT), offer innovative solutions to enhance human-system interactions. However, integrating these technologies into critical environments requires tailored approaches to ensure intuitiveness, security, and efficiency.
Proposed Work
This thesis aims to develop a generative AI architecture enriched with domain-specific data and accessible via mixed reality, enabling a glovebox operator to ask natural language questions. The proposed work includes:
A review of the state-of-the-art on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), ASR/TTS technologies, and Digital Twins.
The development and integration of a chatbot for nuclear operations.
The evaluation of human-AI interactions and the definition of efficiency and adoption metrics.
Expected Outcomes
The project aims to enhance safety and productivity through optimized interactions and to propose guidelines for the adoption of such systems in critical environments.
