  • Publication number: 20120233109
    Abstract: A set of mission attributes is identified, and a computer is used to apply Autoassociative Memory to a plurality of patterns to predict at least one of a mission outcome and a future event that, given the set of mission attributes, might occur during execution of a mission.

  • Publication number: 20120036098
    Abstract: Historical data is processed to identify possible future hostile activities in high threat environments. Pieces of the historical data are collected in computer-readable memory as memory entities, where the memory entities are categorized according to types of attacks and locations of attacks. The memory entities contain attributes taken from the pieces of historical data. A computer system is used to analyze the memory entities with an Associative Memory, wherein correlations of the attributes of the different memory entities are identified. Patterns are discovered from the correlations. The patterns are made available so future hostile activities can be identified.

  • Patent number: 7983996
    Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for simulating human behavior. Source code for predicting human behavior is located on a storage system in a network data processing system. An interpreter executing on hardware in the network data processing system includes a language interpreter and a communications module. The language interpreter executes a simulation with the source code using artificial intelligence to generate a new definition and interpreted source code. A graphical user interface processor receives the interpreted source code from the language interpreter and generates device dependent output. Devices display the device dependent output, receive user input, and send received user input to the graphical user interface processor.

  • Publication number: 20080313143
    Abstract: An apparatus for evaluating hostile force activities includes: (a) a data storage device configured for identifying associative memory relations among information aspects stored in the data storage device; (b) a query device coupled with the data storage device; the query device being configured for posing queries relating to at least one of the information aspects and the associative memory relations to obtain at least one query result; and (c) an activity parsing unit coupled with at least one of the data storage device and the query device. The activity parsing unit is configured to receive information relating to the hostile force activities and is configured to effect identification of features related with the hostile force activities. The features related with the hostile force activities are available for inclusion among the information aspects. The data storage device periodically effects evaluation of the associative memory relations.
