The Pentagon’s advanced research arm plans to develop computing systems and algorithms of proceeding for military operational decision-makers to anticipate behavior in unfamiliar environments.
In a notice posted on the U.S. government’s main contracting website, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, best known as DARPA, announced that it is soliciting innovative research proposals to create self-sustaining, adaptive, generalizable, and scalable methods for generating causal system models based on local knowledge to aid operational decision making.
The DARPA’s program, called the Habitus, is focused on creating explicit computational models of complex, real-world local systems based on collective cognitive models of local populations.
