Abstract

This paper provides a perspective on historical background, innovation and applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), data successes and systems challenges, national security interests, and mission opportunities for system problems. AI and ML today are used interchangeably, or together as AI/ML, and are ubiquitous among many industries and applications. The recent explosion, based on a confluence of new ML algorithms, large data sets, and fast and cheap computing, has demonstrated impressive results in classification and regression and used for prediction, and decision-making. Yet, AI/ML today lacks a precise definition, and as a technical discipline, it has grown beyond its origins in computer science. Even though there are impressive feats, primarily of ML, there still is much work needed in order to see the systems benefits of AI, such as perception, reasoning, planning, acting, learning, communicating, and abstraction. Recent national security interests in AI/ML have focused on problems including multidomain operations (MDO), and this has renewed the focus on a systems view of AI/ML. This paper will address the solutions for systems from an AI/ML perspective and that these solutions will draw from methods in AI and ML, as well as computational methods in control, estimation, communication, and information theory, as in the early days of cybernetics. Along with the focus on developing technology, this paper will also address the challenges of integrating these AI/ML systems for warfare.
