Computational Intelligence in Maritime Security and Defense: Challenges and Opportunities

摘要

Computational Intelligence (CI) has a great potential in Security & Defense (S&D) applications. Nevertheless, such potential seems to be still under exploited. In this work we first review CI applications in the maritime domain, done in the past decades by NATO Nations. Then we discuss challenges and opportunities for CI in S&D. Finally we argue that a review of the academic training of military officers is highly recommendable, in order to allow them to understand, model and solve new problems, using CI techniques.
