IST provides advanced sensor exploitation performance assessments and develops reference implementations. We integrate these advanced sensor exploitation performance assessments with modeling and simulations tools to perform mission level analyses.

IST provides expertise in collaborative autonomous sensing by harnessing the rapid growth in sensing capabilities of unmanned assets to enable a decisive military advantage.

IST is leveraging deep convolutional neural networks for developing robust detection algorithms to improve human detection, tracking and characterization. Our rapid implementation supports tracking at video rates. The features of our network algorithms generate attributes fed to classification networks to perform human characterization. In other words, we support the warfighter in answering questions such as – is the human wearing a uniform, are they male or female, are they carrying a bag or not, or are they carrying a weapon or not.

IST provides modeling and simulation expertise including ELINT scenario generation, visualization, and synthetic data generation. We also develop human perception modelling in support of next generation personnel recovery concept of operations and requirements development
