Capturing Uncertainty in the Common Tactical/Environmental Picture

Abstract

The objectives of this project for FY02 were (1) to identify geographic regions for which active sonar data is available, (2) to develop, in conjunction with Metron Corp., a Bayesian description of target state with which to characterize target state uncertainty, and (3) to compare real-world active sonar data to modeled reverberation from the Applied Physics Laboratory of the University of Washington (APL/UW) and determine the effects of internal waves on the uncertainty of those predictions.
