Simply bringing more
raw information to decision makers in the battlefield
cannot help due to pre-existing cognitive overload
while naïve approaches to computer-mediated information
fusion and automated decision making may make things
worse by hiding needed data or confusing situational
awareness. For future information processing and
planning systems, we need an in-depth understanding
of the cognitive processes of the user being aided,
coupled with innovative approaches for real-time
information fusion at all levels. In collaboration
with researchers from Carnegie Mellon University,
Northrop Grumman Corp., and the Munitions Directorate
of AFRL we are investigating new techniques for
directing attention using active annunciation.
This work is part of a project investigating the
use of intelligent agents for information fusion
and distribution in a comprehensive battlefield
information system.
