Description
Within the last decade, the use of computational intelligence
techniques for solving challenging defense related problems has
achieved widespread acceptance. The genesis of this interest lies in
the fact that repeated attempts of using more traditional techniques
have left many important problems unsolved, and in some cases, not
addressed. Additionally, new problems have emerged that are
difficult to tackle with conventional methods, since social,
cultural, and human behavioral factors tend to be at the heart of
these new types of problems (e.g., within the broad areas of the
global war on terrorism, homeland security, and force protection).
The purpose of this full-day workshop is to introduce and discuss
current and ongoing efforts in using computational intelligence
techniques in attacking and solving defense-related problems, with a
focus on genetic and evolutionary computation techniques. These
include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Genetic and evolutionary techniques in the design of military
systems and sub-systems.
* Genetic and evolutionary techniques for logistics and scheduling
of military operations.
* Genetic and evolutionary algorithms (GEAs) in strategic planning
and tactical decision making.
* Multiobjective GEAs for examining tradeoffs in military,
security, and counter-terrorism procedures.
* Automated discovery of tactics and procedures for site security,
force protection, and consequence management.
* Genetics-based knowledge discovery and data mining of large
databases used to recognize patterns of individual behavior.
* Co-evolution for simultaneous red-blue team strategic-tactical
simulation and gaming.
* Other computational intelligence techniques for applications in
the areas listed above.
The workshop invites completed or ongoing work in using
computational intelligence techniques for addressing these or any
other applications to defense related problems. It is intended to
encourage communication between active researchers and practitioners
to better understand the current scope of efforts within this
domain. The ultimate goal is to understand, discuss, and help set
future directions for computational intelligence in defense problems.
