Research abstract
Our proposed second order uncertainty (SOU) product is a decision making software solution that addresses the problem of providing accurate and precisely defined decision courses of action (COAs) of complex, time-constrained problems in a fraction of the time required by alternative methods striving to achieve the same level of precision. Complex decision situations can deal with large volume of input data at near real-time speeds. Conventional techniques for achieving precision such a Monte-Carlo/Latin Cube simulations are limited in their ability to quantify the precision of the hypothesis in a timely manner. Our SOU product is the solution that will increase the confidence in the decisions at reduced decision times. There are no other methods in existence that provide both the accuracy and speed of SOU.
