Description

SIFT proposes to develop CAMO (Cognitive Assessment and Monitoring of Operators), a zero-intrusion method for human-machine state assessment. Our unique approach utilizes behavioral data already be-ing generated and collected during normal task completion, eliminating the need for additional tasks and more importantly additional monitoring equipment attached to the human. We will utilize SIFT"s innovative, zero-intrusion techniques in linguistics and keyboard dynamics as a base for real time cog-nitive state assessment and identify aggregation/classification methods. Alternative approaches to complement this base will be identified for possible inclusion in Phase 2. The use of behavioral tech-niques provides a new dimension to state assessment by allowing measurement in operational spaces where other techniques would fail; while restricting ourselves to truly non-intrusive data and tech-niques will ensure minimum disruption.
