Described is a system for competency assessment of an autonomous system. The system extracts semantic concepts representing a situation. Actions taken by the autonomous system are associated with semantic concepts that are activated when the actions are taken in the situation. The system measures an outcome of the actions taken in the situation and generates a reward metric. The semantic concepts representing the situation are stored as a memory with the actions taken in the situation and the reward metric as a memory. A prospective simulation is generated based on recall of the memory. A competency metric and an experience metric are determined. Competent operational control of the autonomous system is maintained when at least one of the competency metric and the experience metric is above a minimum value. An alert is generated when at least one of the competency metric and the experience metric falls below the minimum value.
