Description

Dominant scheduling solutions are rarely automated, are highly user intensive, and do not generally maximize efficiencies that can be gained by optimal algorithmic solutions. Duality Systems’ intelligent scheduling solution, Balance Scheduler, uses combinatoric AI-based algorithms to produce efficiencies of scale and provide data analytics for strategic decision-making. This system can ingest both "hard" and "soft" constraints to create optimal, predictive schedules as well as shape long-term risk mitigation and decision support strategies.   We aim to determine the feasibility of pivoting our AI-enabled scheduling solution to two AF use cases, saving myriad man-hours and operational deficiencies while also employing data analytics to display and predict future needs. Aligns with AFVentures Mission Focus Areas: 5280 Scheduling-Next, 1448 Fatigue Avoidance Scheduling Tool 2.0, and 14514 Pilot Training Transformation.
