Ground Truth 1995-2005

In the mid-1990s, Los Alamos had a vision to develop a truly cognizant surveillance system that is adaptive and capable of learning normal behaviors based upon past experiences integrated with human expert knowledge and current scenarios to determine the state of the surveillance area. They would build predictive capabilities for future scenarios and trend analysis. DOE NN-20 sponsored the research necessary to develop such capabilities as adaptive reasoning, image processing (providing image differencing and feature extraction), an integrated facility status system (providing the overall state of a facility), advanced biometrics, pattern recognition, anomaly detection, real-time communications, and data fusion.
