What MPAI-PRF is about

Some AI Modules (AIM) receive more/less input and produce more/fewer output data than an AIM with the same name that is used in other AI Workflows (AIW) even though they nominally perform the same functions. For instance, the Natural Language Understanding  (MMC-NLU) AIM in the Conversation with Emotion AIW (MMC-CWE) receives Recognised Text as input and produces Refined Text and Meaning. However, the MMC-NLU AIM used in the Communicating Entities in Context AIW (HMC-CEC) may also use Audio-Visual Scene Geometry and Audio and/or Visual Object Instance IDs to achieve better understanding of the textual sentence.

Since it is not realistic to require that all MMC-NLU AIMs be equipped with the additional logic required to exploit Geometry and Object information to provide Refined Text and Meaning, Technical Specification: AI Module Profiles (MPAI-PRF) provides a mechanism that unambiguously signals which characteristics of an AIM – called Attributes – are supported by the AIM.
