Combining Decision Analysis and Artificial Intelligence Techniques. An Intelligent Aid for Estimating Enemy Courses of Action

Abstract

AI/ENCOA is a prototype decision aid designed to assist Army tactical intelligence analysts in evaluating alternative Enemy Courses of Action. AI/ ENCOA combines the use of additive Multi-attribute Utility (MAU) models for course of action evaluation with rule-based procedures for assigning parameter values (scores and weights) to the MAU model. AI/ENCOA is composed of two parts: a generic software package that implements a combined AI/MAU architecture, and two COA 'rule bases' for evaluating different types of possible enemy COAs. The present final report summarizes the technical progress made in developing AI/ ENCOA.
