Data, Modeling, and Simulation Sciences
In today’s world where data is ubiquitous and inexpensive, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) can leverage data science developments across multiple homeland security missions to identify signals, patterns, and structures within high-dimensional, noisy, uncertain input. Data sciences and simulation sciences conduct experiments to predict different operational outcomes. Such research can improve the phenomenology of crowd models, improve tool sets available in cyber analytics platforms, decrease the time needed to develop training data annotations in law enforcement missions, improve air interdiction of drug trafficking, and adapt training according to the trainee’s strengths and weaknesses.
