INTRODUCTION
 
The
 
Defense
 
Advanced
 
Research
 
Projects
 
Agency
 
(DARPA)
 
will
 
conduct
 
a
 
briefing
 
to
 
Industry,
 
on
 
April
 
20,
 
2010,
 
in
 
support
 
of 
 
the
 
anticipated
 
Mind’s
 
Eye
 
program
 
Broad
 
Agency
 
Announcement
 
(BAA).
 
This
 
announcement
 
serves
 
as
 
a
 
pre
solicitation
 
notice
 
and
 
is
 
issued
 
solely
 
for
 
information
 
and
 
program
 
planning
 
purposes.
 
When
 
released,
 
the
 
BAA
 
will
 
be
 
found
 
on
 
the
 
FedBizOpps
 
website,
 
 
EVENT
 
OVERVIEW
 
The
 
Mind’s
 
Eye
 
program
 
seeks
 
to
 
develop
 
in
 
machines
 
a
 
capability
 
that
 
currently
 
exists
 
only
 
in
 
animals:
 
visual 
 
intelligence
.
 
Humans
 
in
 
particular
 
perform
 
a
 
wide
 
range
 
of 
 
visual
 
tasks
 
with
 
ease,
 
which
 
no
 
current
 
artificial
 
intelligence
 
can
 
do
 
in
 
a
 
robust
 
way.
 
Humans
 
have
 
inherently
 
strong
 
spatial
 
 judgment
 
and
 
are
 
able
 
to
 
learn
 
new
 
spatiotemporal
 
concepts
 
directly
 
from
 
the
 
visual
 
experience.
 
Humans
 
can
 
visualize
 
scenes
 
and
 
objects,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
actions
 
involving
 
those
 
objects.
 
Humans
 
possess
 
a
 
powerful
 
ability
 
to
 
manipulate
 
those
 
imagined
 
scenes
 
mentally
 
to
 
solve
 
problems.
 
A
 
machine
based
 
implementation
 
of 
 
such
 
abilities
 
would
 
be
 
broadly
 
applicable
 
to
 
a
 
wide
 
range
 
of 
 
applications.
 
This
 
program
 
pursues
 
the
 
capability
 
to
 
learn
 
generally
 
applicable
 
and
 
generative
 
representations
 
of 
 
action
 
between
 
objects
 
in
 
a
 
scene
 
directly
 
from
 
visual
 
inputs,
 
and
 
then
 
reason
 
over
 
those
 
learned
 
representations.
 
A
 
key
 
distinction
 
between
 
this
 
research
 
and
 
the
 
state
 
of 
 
the
 
art
 
in
 
machine
 
vision
 
is
 
that
 
the
 
latter
 
has
 
made
 
continual
 
progress
 
in
 
recognizing
 
a
 
wide
 
range
 
of 
 
objects
 
and
 
their
 
properties—what
 
might
 
be
 
thought
 
of 
 
as
 
the
 
nouns
 
in
 
the
 
description
 
of 
 
a
 
scene.
 
The
 
focus
 
of 
 
Mind’s
 
Eye
 
is
 
to
 
add
 
the
 
perceptual
 
and
 
cognitive
 
underpinnings
 
for
 
recognizing
 
and
 
reasoning
 
about
 
the
 
verbs
 
in
 
those
 
scenes,
 
enabling
 
a
 
more
 
complete
 
narrative
 
of 
 
action
 
in
 
the
 
visual
 
experience.
 
One
 
of 
 
the
 
desired
 
military
 
capabilities
 
resulting
 
from
 
this
 
new
 
form
 
of 
 
visual
 
intelligence
 
is
 
a
 
smart 
 
camera
,
 
with
 
sufficient
 
visual
 
intelligence
 
that
 
it
 
can
 
report
 
on
 
activity
 
in
 
an
 
area
 
of 
 
observation.
 
A
 
camera
 
with
 
this
 
kind
 
of 
 
visual
 
intelligence
 
could
 
be
 
employed
 
as
 
a
 
payload
 
on
 
a
 
broad
 
range
 
of 
 
persistent
 
stare
 
surveillance
 
platforms,
 
from
 
fixed
 
surveillance
 
systems,
 
which
 
would
 
conceivably
 
benefit
 
from
 
abundant
 
computing
 
power,
 
to
 
camera
equipped
 
perch
and
stare
 
micro
 
air
 
vehicles,
 
which
 
would
 
impose
 
extreme
 
limitations
 
on
 
payload
 
size
 
and
 
available
 
computing
 
power.
 
For
 
the
 
purpose
 
of 
 
this
 
research,
 
employment
 
of 
 
this
 
capability
 
on
 
man
portable
 
unmanned
 
ground
 
vehicles
 
(UGVs)
 
is
 
assumed.
 
This
 
provides
 
a
 
reasonable
 
yet
 
challenging
 
set
 
of 
 
development
 
constraints,
 
along
 
with
 
the
 
potential
 
to
 
transition
 
the
 
technology
 
to
 
an
 
objective
 
ground
 
force
 
capability.
 
Mind’s
 
Eye
 
strongly
 
emphasizes
 
 fundamenta
 
research
.
 
It
 
is
 
expected
 
that
 
technology
 
development
 
teams
 
will
 
draw
 
equally
 
from
 
the
 
state
 
of 
 
the
 
art
 
in
 
cognitive
 
systems,
 
machine
 
vision
,
 
and
 
related
 
fields
 
to
 
develop
 
this
 
new
 
visual
 
intelligence.

research
 
toward
 
operational
 
benefits,
 
the
 
program
 
will
 
also
 
feature
 
 flexible
 
and 
 
opportunistic
 
systems
 
integration
.
 
This
 
integration
 
will
 
leverage
 
proven
 
visual
 
intelligence
 
software
 
to
 
develop
 
prototype
 
smart
 
cameras.
 
Integrators
 
will
 
contribute
 
an
 
economical
 
level
 
of 
 
effort
 
during
 
the
 
technology
 
development
 
phase,
 
supporting
 
participation
 
in
 
phase
 
I
 
program
 
events
 
(PI
 
meetings,
 
demonstrations,
 
and
 
evaluations)
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
development
 
of 
 
detailed
 
systems
 
integration
 
concepts
 
that
 
will
 
be
 
considered
 
by
 
DARPA
 
at
 
appropriate
 
times
 
for
 
increased
 
effort
 
in
 
phase
 
II
 
systems
 
integration.
 
The
 
goals
 
of 
 
Industry
 
Day
 
are
 
threefold:
 
1)
 
to
 
familiarize
 
participants
 
with
 
DARPA’s
 
interest
 
in
 
the
 
Mind’s
 
Eye
 
research
 
area
 
and
 
the
 
forthcoming
 
program
 
requirements,
 
2)
 
to
 
promote
 
understanding
 
of 
 
the
 
BAA
 
proposal
 
guidelines,
 
and
 
3)
 
to
 
promote
 
discussion
 
of 
 
synergistic
 
capabilities
 
among
 
potential
 
program
 
participants.
 
It
 
is
 
DARPA’s
 
desire
 
to
 
facilitate
 
the
 
formation
 
of 
 
strong
 
teams
 
and
 
business
 
relationships
 
in
 
order
 
to
 
develop
 
comprehensive,
 
quality
 
responses
 
to
 
any
 
potential
 
DARPA
 
solicitation.
 
Information
 
on
 
the
 
Mind’s
 
Eye
