Future infrastructures will be adaptive to comply with security policies established at the time of deployment and to allow systems to autonomously learn, by example, about acceptable changes in configuration and applications. Policies and trust inferences will be based on distributed similarity estimates within hierarchical functional groups which are autonomously formed as nodes exchange information about their configuration and state. These self-regulating and self-healing infrastructures will provide the much needed flexibility and robustness to enable system security and information assurance capabilities for future military and civilian tactical infrastructures. To realize this vision, IHMC research scientists...

IHMC researchers develop conceptual and computational models of expert knowledge and reasoning, and of complex cognitive work, as a core element to the paradigm of human-centered computing. IHMC research in this area is conducted by Associate Director and Senior Research Scientist Alberto J. Cañas and Senior Research Scientists William J. Clancey and ...

IHMC researchers develop conceptual and computational models of expert knowledge and reasoning, and of complex cognitive work, as a core element to the paradigm of human-centered computing. IHMC research in this area is conducted by Associate Director and Senior Research Scientist Alberto J. Cañas and Senior Research Scientists William J. Clancey and Robert R. Hoffman. IHMC’s work on knowledge modeling involves representing a person’s understanding of a domain of knowledge in a form that others can easily comprehend. Such models are useful for learning, knowledge preservation, and organization of information. IHMC researchers have...

AI is still comparatively young, and like every young interdisciplinary area, it evolves as new ideas and insights are revealed and new methods and techniques become available. IHMC researchers James Allen, Kenneth Ford, Clark Glymour, Patrick Hayes, Choh Man Teng, Brent Venable, and Yorick Wilks actively are...

AI is still comparatively young, and like every young interdisciplinary area, it evolves as new ideas and insights are revealed and new methods and techniques become available. IHMC researchers James Allen, Kenneth Ford, Clark Glymour, Patrick Hayes, Choh Man Teng, Brent Venable, and Yorick Wilks actively are interested in clarifying the philosophical foundations of AI and cognitive science. Rethinking the aims of AI Traditionally, the goal of artificial intelligence was the creation of a ‘human-level’ mechanical intelligence, a kind of simulated human being that could pass the Turing Test...
