TiER1 Performance Solutions Wins Cognitive Modeling and Data Mining Contracts
TiER1 Performance Solutions announced today that it was awarded contracts with L-3 Communications Corporation, Link Simulation and Training (L-3 Link) to support computational cognitive modeling and human performance data mining and extraction analysis research programs at the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL).
For one project, TiER1 will assist L-3 Link in the design and implementation of a computational cognitive model of situational reasoning as part of the synthetic teammate project. The goal of the synthetic teammate program is to build a language capable synthetic teammate that can effectively function as part of a team with human teammates in a military reconnaissance mission simulation. In the second project, TiER1 will assist L-3 Link in the study of methods and technologies to automatically discover patterns of behavior in human performance data for the construction of computational cognitive models. The goal of this project is to accelerate the construction of cognitive models and leverage the models to improve the training efficacy and efficiency of simulation-based training programs.
Stu Rodgers, TiER1′s Managing Director for government solutions said of the partnership, “These research programs are cutting edge and crucial for pushing the state-of-the-art in training and human performance technologies. AFRL and L-3 Link are both exceptional organizations that are carving news paths in advanced human performance research and technology development. We are honored to be selected to support them on these vital programs.”
