Foundational Learning Technology
Abstract
The Foundational Learning Technology program develops advanced machine learning techniques that enable cognitive systems to continuously learn, adapt and respond to new situations by drawing inferences from past experience and existing information stores. The techniques developed under Foundational Learning Technology address diverse machine learning challenges in processing of sensory inputs, language acquisition, combinatorial algorithms, strategic analysis, planning, reasoning, and reflection. One very promising approach involves transfer learning techniques that transfer knowledge and skills learned for specific situations to novel, unanticipated situations and thereby enable learning systems to perform appropriately and effectively the first time a novel situation is encountered. This is essential because most military operations occur in ever-changing environments; U.S. forces and systems must be able to act appropriately and effectively the first time each novel situation is encountered.
