Description

GALT has formed the AVEO Team with AWS (Amazon Web Services), NLP (Natural Language Processing) subject matter experts, UCSD’s Qualcomm Institute, and the 552nd Air Control Wing (AWACS) to utilize the resident expertise of our software engineering teams and warfighters subject matter expertise on state-of-the-art applications, cloud-based processing and data security solutions. GALT’s combined key personnel include former USAF C2 professionals and software experts in cognitive services and big data processing, C2 applications and artificial intelligence. Ultimately, AVEO Phase II is about refining the solution to make AI real, today and to showcase across the Command and Control enterprise the multitude of additional use cases possible. AVEO is a flexible, voice and speech based, query system that creates dynamic, on demand, relevant information for the Air Battle Manager operator and decision maker. AVEO can access information across the multi-domain battlespace. The warfighter software tools of today are a highly complex set of independent and interdependent software systems to plan and execute air, land, sea, subsurface, space and cyber wars. These systems ingest many sources of data, and the need for timely and accurate retrieval of this data can often be thwarted by cumbersome and slow processes. AVEO (a) provides a much more reliable record of dialogue between pilots and Air Battle Managers, (b) significantly reduces potential for human error in Multi-Domain Command and Control decision making, and (c) creates a solid base of information and programming that can be implemented into more advanced AI and ML based applications and software going forward.
