Augmenting Air Operations Centers Using Machines: Global Stability, Threat, and Operational Risk Forecasting

Hyperion has direct applicability to Air Force operations and intelligence missions. Specifically, Hyperion can be an immediate and substantial force multiplier to all ISR and AOC missions by shifting the traditional Common Operational Picture (COP) of current activities to one that is a future forecast of the operational environment. As this is a paradigm shift in the way AOCs operate we believe the initial phases of this SIBR proposal should be evaluated and employed by the KREL and transition in future phases to operational AOCs. Using Hyperion, analysts and operators spend their time evaluating global indications and warning of potential threats and risks with field-tested AI that detects abnormal activity and stability levels globally and provides continuously updated geopolitical stability assessments at the country, region, and city level. The Hyperion platform provides government agencies and commercial companies several advanced analytic capabilities, but what really differentiates Hyperion is our unique AI models: Activity GRiD, Stability GRiD, and Stability Forecasting. These models give analysts and operators the information they need, where they need it, before they need it. The models solve the problem of unintended bias, ensure that an AOC has a global perspective, and present an alternative to the traditional COP.
