Description
A distributed architecture is proposed that supports the tactical warfighter by accepting a plain language request for information and generating a plain language response that summarizes metadata extracted from multi-source sensor data. This metadata is represented and processed using Semantic Web technologies, and organized as data cubes that link content to specific locations and times. Innovative aspects of the proposed work include novel representations of the data cubes, the use of mission metadata to determine both the content and presentation of the response, and the use of natural-language generation technology to generate plain language summaries that are highly tailored to the specific mission and specific warfighter.
