The maritime industry faces increasing demands for safe and efficient operations due to growing traffic, more complex vessels, and higher safety requirements. Simulator-based training is essential for preparing maritime professionals, but it relies heavily on experienced human instructors, whose availability is limited.
Recent advances in artificial intelligence, especially large language models (LLMs), enable the development of interactive AI agents that can support human learning in complex, safety-critical environments. Human-centered AI in this project means that the agent will learn from simulator data and expert knowledge, and will be designed to work collaboratively with trainees and instructors rather than replacing them. The AI agents will leverage LLMs for knowledge acquisition, natural language interaction, and decision support, while integrating simulator data and multimodal inputs to provide timely guidance, feedback, and post-training analysis.
This PhD project aims to develop human-centered interactive AI agents for maritime simulator training. The research will investigate how LLM-driven agents can perceive and interpret dynamic maritime environments, collaborate with human trainees during simulator sessions, provide transparent explanations for their actions, and adapt their support to individual training needs
