Probabilistic Programming for Advancing Machine Learning (PPAML)
Abstract
The Probabilistic Programming for Advancing Machine Learning (PPAML) program is creating an advanced computer programming capability that greatly facilitates the construction of new machine learning applications in a wide range of domains. This capability will increase the number of people who can effectively contribute, make experts more productive, and enable the creation of new tactical applications that are inconceivable given today's tools. The key enabling technology is a radically new programming paradigm called probabilistic programming that enables developers to quickly build generative models of phenomena and queries of interest, which a compiler would convert into efficient applications. PPAML technologies will be designed for application to a wide range of military domains including Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) exploitation, robotic and autonomous system navigation and control, and medical diagnostics.
