    摘要: A method and system of a sparse sampling planner uses a finite number of measurements to determine a track's expected intermediate kinematic and classification state for a specific sensor action. It uses the expected track state to compute a reward function. The expected states are further propagated for actions at the next time step to determine the next states and so on. The sampling becomes sparse and the reward function is discounted as one propagates further in time. This produces a state-action tree that is more top-heavy while providing greater accuracy at times closer to the decision point. By doing so, the planner creates a plan comprising a sequence of actions that result in the highest reward. By employing various heuristics to further prune the tree gives highly accurate results with significant savings in computational processor time.

    摘要: Described is a system for multi-mission scheduling. The system is configured to compile a list of missions, where each mission includes at least one task. Additionally, each mission has a mission value associated with it such that the mission value reflects an ordering priority of the mission. The system also compiles a list of available resources that can be utilized to complete the tasks. The resources have, varying capabilities of completing tasks. Based on the lists, the system allocates and schedules the resources to complete tasks within the missions to maximize a total mission value of completed missions. Thus, the system schedules multiple missions to maximize the value of completed missions given available resources, whereby a mission is scheduled when the totality of its tasks have been allocated a sufficient amount of resources.

    摘要: A method, apparatus, and computer program product for joint kinematic and feature tracking are presented. Kinematic measurements and feature/class measurements regarding an object are received from a sensor. A probabilistic argumentation operation is performed on the feature/class measurements using information from a knowledge base and a track file ect to generate feature track likelihood scores regarding likely tracks for the object. Kinematic track likelihood scores are generated based on the kinematic measurements and the track file. Joint track likelihood scores are generated based on the feature track likelihood scores and the kinematic track likelihood scores. Joint track likelihood scores are used to generate a multi-frame track measurement association to determine a most likely track for the object. The track file is continually updated with the most likely track for the object, so that the most likely trajectory of the object is obtained.

    摘要: Described is a system for optimizing rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP). A similarity metric is computed for RSVP images, and the images are sequenced according to the similarity metrics. The sequenced images are presented to a user, and neural signals are received to detect a P300 signal. A neural score for each image is computed, and the system is optimized to model the neural scores. The images are resequenced according a predictive model to output a sequence prediction which does not cause a false P300 signal. Additionally, the present invention describes computing a set of motion surprise maps from image chips. The image chips are labeled as static or moving and prepared into RSVP datasets. Neural signals are recorded in response to the RSVP datasets, and an EEG score is computed from the neural signals. Each image chip is then classified as containing or not containing an item of interest.

    摘要: To improve the scheduling and tasking of sensors, the present disclosure describes an improved planning system and method for the allocation and management of sensors. In one embodiment, the planning system uses a branch and bound approach of tasking sensors using a heuristic to expedite arrival at a deterministic solution. In another embodiment, a progressive lower bound is applied to the branch and bound approach. Also, in another embodiment, a hybrid branch and bound approach is used where both local and global planning are employed in a tiered fashion.

    摘要: The present disclosure describes a fused saliency map from visual and auditory saliency maps. The saliency maps are in azimuth and elevation coordinates. The auditory saliency map is based on intensity, frequency and temporal conspicuity maps. Once the auditory saliency map is determined, the map is converted into azimuth and elevation coordinates by processing selected snippets of sound from each of four microphones arranged on a robot head to detect the location of the sound source generating the saliencies.

    摘要: To improve the scheduling and tasking of resources, the present disclosure describes an improved planning system and method for the allocation and management of resources. The planning system uses a branch and bound approach of tasking resources using a heuristic to expedite arrival at a deterministic solution. For each possible functional mode of the resources, an upper bound is determined. The upper bounds are employed in an objective function for the branch and bound process to determine the functional mode in which to place the resources and to determine movement paths for the resources, all in an environment where a hostile force may attempt to destroy the resources.
