AMHERST, Mass. – The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded the University of Massachusetts Amherst Biologically Inspired Neural & Dynamical Systems (BINDS) Laboratory, the DARPA DITTO – Intelligent Auto-Generation and Composition of Surrogate Models project. This is one of the agency’s AI Explorations. UMass’s co-PI on this award is Lockheed Martin Advanced Technology Laboratories. DITTO aims at developing an AI machine learning framework that can speedily simulate a complex system by automatically generating surrogate models for system’s component and integrating them into one design. The UMass-LM team seeks to design a machine learning framework with their Modular Knowledgeable AI (MOKA) system.
