AI Tech Watch Deep Dives

Descriptions

Dstl has a requirement to increase its knowledge and understanding of the state-of-the-art in Artificial Intelligence (AI) research around two specific areas - Broad AI, and Machine Assisted Forecasting and Prediction. For each area, we are seeking a technical deep dive report which should contain: •An overview of the key technical observations across each AI topic, drawing together the relevant research from both recent publications as well as still-current techniques which may have been known for some time •A series of observations on the topic, providing commentary on public announcements and / or academic articles made by industry and academia •Next steps, which recommend further work with Dstl or partners could undertake to better understand the implications for Defence. Each report should be produced to a high quality and be suitable for sharing with other stakeholders within HM Government, and our 5-eyes international partners. The activity should be confined to the topics of interest, and be undertaken by technical experts in that specialty. This approach will provide a coherent overview of the topic, with deep technical insight.
