Cognitive Training Assistants for Cost Estimators (Incubate Phase I, WRT-1049.8.1)

Abstract

The goal of this Incubator project was to demonstrate proof of concept for a cognitive assistant to support training of new cost estimators in the Department of Defense (DOD). A Cognitive Assistant (CA)is defined here as an Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool, usually with a natural language interface, that augments human intellect in a specific task by retrieving and processing relevant information from multiple information sources and providing it to the user at the right time. It also has the capability to learn and adapt to the user and problem at hand.
