Statement of Work
In support of the FY-1995 Congressional directive, conduct the following Two-
Phase activity.
Phase I - Retrospective Review
Task 1:
Construct a retrospective review and technical analysis of all the data produced
by the operations sections since the program begun in 1972. This should
include a description of protocols and, where possible, ground truth analyses.
The objectives are to determine categories of operational tasking that lead to
successful and unsuccessful results and to collect into a single document the
best prima facie examples together with their supporting material.
Construct an on-line, computerized database for this information.
Tasks 2:
Conduct workshops with representatives of the operations user-communities to
identify:
a.
Current real-world requirements for anomalous cognition technology.
b.
Forms of data that are best suited for user-community analysis.
C.
Logistics for significant liaison for responsive tasking and ground-truth
feedback for performance analysis.
Phase II - Preparation for Future Activity
Task 1:
Conduct workshops with representatives of the physiology, physics, and
psychology research communities for the purpose of determining specific
experiments that would be likely to yield the most productive insights into
improving the quality of the data and the understanding of the mechanisms of
anomalous mental phenomena.

Task 2:
Conduct operational-test bed experiments in which total ground-truth is
available. This should include a complete technical analysis of the accuracy
and reliability of practitioners currently associated with the program.
