ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH HAS PROGRESSED TO THE POINT WHERE IT HAS PRODUCED A WIDE RANGE OF APPLICATIONS, TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES. TO ASSURE THAT THESE SYSTEMS WILL RELIABLY PERFORM WILL REQUIRE THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADVANCED TESTING PROCEDURES. THIS PROPOSAL DETAILS A PLAN FOR ORGANIZING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE KNOWLEDGE AND BUILDING SOFTWARE TOOLS WHICH USE THIS KNOWLEDGE AS A FIRST STEP TOWARD ...

A SIGNIFICANT LEVEL OF EFFORT HAS BEEN DEDICATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOPHISTICATED DECISION AIDS FOR THE ADVANCED COCKPIT OF THE 1990'S AND BEYOND. THE GOAL OF MUCH OF THIS WORK HAS BEEN TO EQUIP THE FUTURE PILOT OF A MULTI-MISSION AIRCRAFT WITH THE LEVEL OF TACTICAL, AVIONICS, AND MISSION SUPPORT NOW ONLY POSSIBLE IN MULTI-MAN COCKPITS. USE OF ADVANCED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SYSTEMS, MELDED IN ...

N/A

THE PROPOSED EFFORT IS TO DEVELOP A CONCEPT AND A PLAN FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT FOR AN IMPROVED METHODOLOGY OF THREAT ASSESSMENT/ POTENTIAL FOR USE BY THE D/NAPS MISSION PLANNER. THE PROPOSED APPROACH IS TO USE THE THREAT EXPERT ANALYSIS SYSTERM (TEAS) CONCEPT DEVELOPED UNDER CONTRACT TO WPAFB AS A STARTING POINT FOR DEVELOPMENT OF A MISSION PLANNER ALGORITHM. TEAS IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE FIGHTER AI ...

THE INTRODUCTION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE INTO COMPUTER-BASED INSTRUCTION (CBI) PROMISED THE POSSIBILITY OF SOPHISTICATED SYSTEMS THAT COULD PROVIDE ONE-ON-ONE INSTRUCTION EFFICIENTLY AND ECONOMICALLY. UNFORTUNATELY, EFFORTS TO DEVELOP SYSTEMS THAT REPRESENT INSTRUCTIONAL EXPERTISE HAVE BEEN LARGELY DISAPPOINTING. WHETHER DUE TO THE LACK OF WELL-DEVELOPED MODELS OF INSTRUCTIONAL EXPERTISE, OR TH ...

N/A

SELF PROPAGATING HIGH TEMPERATURE SYNTHESIS (SHS) OF TIC AND TIB2 RESULTS IN A HOT POROUS PRODUCT. IF THE TEMPERATURE OF THE PRODUCT EXCEEDS THE DUCTILE-BRITTLE TRANSITION TEMPERATURE, THE HOT PRODUCT CAN BE COMPACTED TO REDUCE POROSITY AND YIELD A CONSOLIDATED BODY WITH USEFUL STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES. SEVERAL COMPACTION TECHNIQUES HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED. AMONG THESE, EXPLOSIVELY GENERATED DYNAMIC COM ...

N/A

THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROPOSAL IS TO DEMONSTRATE THE FEASIBILITY IN DEVELOPING A BI-DIRECTIONAL (2 WAY) CADD TRANSLATOR BETWEEN DSREDS SYSTEMS (2D RASTER) AND THE INTERGRAPH CADEM SYSTEM. THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUCH A TRANSLATOR WILL GREATLY REDUCE THE MANPOWER WASTE AND DUPLICATION OF EFFORT THAT ARE INHERIT IN THE CURRENT METHODOLOGY USED. DUE TO PIONEER TECHNOLOGY EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WITH THE INTERG ...
