Darpa puts thought into cognitive computing - R. Colin Johnson, EE Times
A program that may push cognitive technology to a new level is being launched by the Department of Defense. The DOD, a longtime supporter and user of artificial-intelligence systems, aims to build what it is calling an "enduring personalized cognitive assistant," or Epca. The system will be able to "reason, use represented knowledge, learn from experience, accumulate knowledge, explain itself, accept direction, be aware of its own behavior and capabilities as well as respond in a robust manner to surprises," according to a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) Broad Agency Announcement. The BAA requests research proposals for Epca designs by Dec. 19.
