DANIEL H. WAGNER ASSOCIATES, INCORPORATED SBIR Phase II Award, June 2021

In this Mine Countermeasures (MCM) Artificial Intelligence (AI) Risk Reduction (MAIR) project Daniel H. Wagner Associates, Inc. will develop AI Services that reduce the risk to friendly MCM assets when optimizing MCM mission effectiveness. In particular, we will develop algorithms and software to determine how best to assign MCM assets to missions in multiple AOIs in order to achieve a specified mission goal (e.g., search/clearance effectiveness level greater than 85%) in a specified amount of time, while keeping risk to MCM assets below a specified threshold; and also develop multiobjective optimization algorithms and software to determine the Pareto Optimal Frontier (POF) for “MCM mission effectiveness” versus “Risk to friendly MCM assets.”
