Exploiting Spatiotemporal Patterns for Event Response using Digital Pheromones and Reinforcement Learning
Graphic depicting Somali pirate attacks in the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean

Sequences of events resulting from the actions of human adversarial actors such as military forces or criminal organizations may appear to have random dynamics in time and space. Finding patterns in such sequences and using those patterns in order to anticipate and respond to the events can be...
