Risk Management Systems Must Provide Automatic Decisions According to Crisis Computable Algebras

摘要

Is is nowadays our responsibility to convince our contemporary citizens that AI devices as UGVs (Unmanned Ground Vehicles) and UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) are crucial actors of today's life in a dual domains, both civilian and military. In particular, the decision process is the main component of every military operation and is of high interest because of two main reasons: it is necessary designed to cope with conflict issues and it requires a very complex planning process to be successful. The difficulty to find a good plan is worse in urban areas because of the high uncertainty due to the topology of these areas, the presence of civilians, who can be hostile or friendly, and the unpredictable nature of enemies. The idea in that paper is to qualify what can be a valid computed plan in that context, i.e. well-designed for recovering of peace, rescue operations after a bombing event, hostage salvage, noncombatant evacuation operations, civil-military co-operation, ..., in urban areas. This planning process leads to associate actually four components, the representation of the tactical scheme, the implementation of the tactical scheme as the behaviour of special forces, military units or emergency squads, the proof process or the explanation process, and finally the handling of external factors depending on the current environment or the current context in which the operation takes place. This paper uses a quaternary representation called the epistemological quadriptych, in order to highlight that the integration of UGVs or UAVs devices requires actually to understand the role of knowledge and behaviour and to provide secure and valid action plans, i.e. which can be explained and justified.
