Artificial intelligence and machine learning
Machine learning techniques are being rapidly integrated into a growing number of fields, including self-driving cars, speech and visual recognition, effective web search, marketing and understanding of the human genome. But the more we rely on these techniques, the more vulnerable they become to cyber attack.
CCI SWVA AI/ML research programs focus on:
- Building a prototype system that demonstrates how artificial intelligence (AI) can supplement a human air traffic controller in high-stress scenarios.
- Combining artificial intelligence and visual analytics to provide users with experiential training and education
- Developing a chatbot-based intervention program that raises adolescents’ knowledge and awareness about risk factors for cyber grooming and increases self-efficacy to protect themselves
- Exploring new artificial intelligence methods to measure and mitigate toxic language in chatbots.
