Human-Centred AI for mobility

Research will focus on human-centred AI to (1) support existing NS customers in making next-best actions and (2) regain customers by giving them tailored travel inspiration. The following topics are investigated:

  • Personalized communication: Transparent, adaptive, interactive customer-AI communication, which allows customers to take control of and, consequently, influence their experience positively. AI-induced communication of when, what, and how to provide information is central.
  • Context modelling: External influences can significantly influence the travel experience and preferences (e.g., concerts and soccer games, weather, and luggage). AI-induced, personalized context models steer when, what, and how these influences are taken into account.
