Researchers Share Useful Lessons Learned in Evaluating Emerging Technologies - 0 views

  • Schlenoff and his colleagues used their SCORE approach to evaluate technologies as they progressed under two DARPA programs: ASSIST and TRANSTAC. In ASSIST, DARPA is funding efforts to instrument soldiers with wearable sensors—video cameras, microphones, global positioning devices and more—to continuously record activities while they are on a mission. TRANSTAC is driving the development of two-way speech-translation systems that enable speakers of different languages to communicate with each other in real-world situations, without an interpreter. By providing constructive feedback on system capabilities, the SCORE evaluative framework helps to drive innovation and performance improvements.

    SCORE (System, Component and Operationally Relevant Evaluations) is a unified set of criteria and software tools for defining a performance evaluation approach for complex intelligent systems. It provides a comprehensive evaluation blueprint that assesses the technical performance of a system and its components through isolating and changing variables as well as capturing end-user utility of the system in realistic use-case environments. The SCORE framework has proven to be widely-applicable in nature and equally relevant to technologies ranging from manufacturing to military systems. It has been applied to the evaluation of technologies in DARPA programs that range from soldier-worn sensor on patrol to speech-to-speech translation systems. It is also currently being applied to the assessing the control of autonomous vehicles on a shop floor.

    From NIST Tech Beat: June 21, 2011 Most industry executives, military planners, research managers or venture capitalists charged with assessing the potential of an R&D project probably are familiar with the wry twist on Arthur C. Clarke's third law*: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a rigged demo."
