Data Science Driven Aircrew Performance Measurement and Proficiency System
Amount: $1,499,989 Topic: N181-026
This SBIR Phase II.5 effort will be used to accelerate the incremental development, test, demonstration, and delivery of the Reconstruction and Assessment of Proficiency in an Integrated Debrief (RAPID) software in preparation for instantiation across all platforms, missions, and training environments in Phase III. The effort will leverage work that was previously accomplished during SBIR Phase I and Phase II. During Phase I, Fleet training requirements were decomposed by training experts into building block elements in order to rapidly develop, test, and deliver the overall architecture and capability map for RAPID while delivering a functional Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) analysis tool in prototype form. During Phase II, 2 Circle designed the next technical increment for development, instantiated the design into the software, delivered capability for testing by training analysis and data collection SMEs, evaluated results, corrected deficiencies, and then advanced to the next increment of development of the prototype. The outcome of Phase II was a matured prototype capable of supporting external (non-Fleet aircrew) data collection experts, such as those from the Training Analysis Project (TAP) team, for data collection, analysis, storage, documentation, and reporting in support of operational unit-level live and virtual-constructive (LVC) integrated F/A-18, EA-18G, and F-35 Air Warfare (AW), Strike Warfare (STW), and Suppression of Enemy Air Defense (SEAD) mission debriefs. Phase II.5 will advance the progress achieved during Phase II in support of the US Navy Fighter Weapons School (TOPGUN) aircrew instructors and students. At the completion of the SBIR Phase II.5, RAPID will have the automated processes and analytical tools required to realize the goal of supporting a performance-based training program for TOPGUN including data collection, analysis, storage, and reporting requirements, which is considered a critical step in preparation for Fleet-wide aircrew instantiation in SBIR Phase III.

Data Science Driven Aircrew Performance Measurement and Proficiency System
Amount: $1,732,465 Topic: N181-026
The objective of this SBIR Phase II is to apply the research that was conducted during SBIR Phase I to develop a software solution that consolidates performance data from multiple sources to ensure that data collection and assessment processes are accurate, efficient, and effective. The solution leverages the processes used by NAVAIR’s Training Analysis Project (TAP) and provides a tool that can be used by both aircrew and data collectors to conduct performance assessment. The design and function of the software adhere to training best practices and align with the performance metrics that TAP has already identified as being critical to mission success in Component Commander plans. Although Phase II will focus on F/A-18 AW and STW, the software is scalable in that it will provide a methodology for the NAE to duplicate the entire TAP process for other platforms and mission sets in a manner that is streamlined and efficient. The software uses Artificial intelligence to enable automated and semi-automated methods for collection of data, assessment of performance, and reporting of training deficiencies. The software is intended to improve the speed and effectiveness of the feedback to the trainee and the NAE leadership.

The objective of this proposal is to design a software solution that consolidates performance data from multiple sources to ensure that data collection and assessment processes are accurate, efficient, and effective. The designed solution will leverage the work already conducted by NAVAIR’s Training Analysis Project (TAP) regarding F/A-18 air warfare. In doing so, the software will adhere to training best practices and align with the performance metrics that TAP has already identified as being critical to mission success in Component Commander plans. Since TAP’s processes were designed to be scalable, this software will provide a methodology for the NAE to duplicate the entire TAP process for other platforms and mission sets in a manner that is streamlined and efficient. Artificial intelligence will be applied to enable automated and semi-automated methods for collection of data, assessment of performance, and reporting of training deficiencies. This improves the speed and effectiveness of the feedback to the trainee and the NAE leadership. The software will be designed to reside on hardware that is already resident at Fleet training locations (to reduce the physical footprint) and will incorporate an intuitive user interface (to minimize the need for additional aircrew training).
