Hostile Intent Identification by Movement Pattern Analysis: Using Artificial Neural Networks

In the recent years, the problem of identifying suspicious behavior has gained importance and identifying this behavior using computational systems and autonomous algorithms is highly desirable in a tactical scenario. So far, the solutions have been primarily manual which elicit human observation of entities to discern the hostility of the situation. To cater to this problem statement, a number of fully automated and partially automated solutions exist. But, these solutions lack the capability of learning from experiences and work in conjunction with human supervision which is extremely prone to error. In this paper, a generalized methodology to predict the hostility of a given object based on its movement patterns is proposed which has the ability to learn and is based upon the mechanism of humans of learning from experiences. The methodology so proposed has been implemented in a computer simulation. The results show that the posited methodology has the potential to be applied in real world tactical scenarios.

Hostile Intent Enumeration using Soft Computing Techniques

In any tactical scenario, the successful quantification and triangulation of potential hostile elements is instrumental to minimize any casualties which might be incurred. The most commonly deployed infrastructures to cater to this have mostly been surveillance systems which only extract some data pertaining to the targets of interest in the area of observation and convey the information to the human operators. Accordingly, with the ever increasing rate at which warfare tactics are evolving, there has been a growing need for smarter solutions to this problem of hostile intent enumeration. Recently, a number of developments have been made to ameliorate the efficacy and the certitude with which this task is performed. This paper discusses two of the most prominent approaches which address this problem and posits the outline of a novel solution which seeks to address the shortcomings faced by the existing approaches.
