The Spark of Innovation: Spotlight on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML)
Our patented ML system runs checkpoint simulations to learn the best way to stop threats.
- Challenge: Building and staffing effective checkpoints – at airports, federal buildings or other secure sites – often comes down to investing limited resources in the best way possible. But how do you determine the best option?
- Solution: Noblis researchers designed a ML system to play out the possible outcomes of an attacker trying to smuggle weapons or dangerous materials through a checkpoint, looking for the most effective way to deploy resources.
- Impact: This system can identify capability gaps and calculate the return on investment, allowing decision makers to best allocate limited operations budgets to achieve maximum safety.
- Other Potential Applications: Noblis’ advances in AI/ML technology are guiding the way to high-speed data ingestion for scenario testing and decision support to put mission resources to work more quickly and more effectively, regardless of domain.

The Spark of Innovation: Spotlight on Autonomous Systems
Noblis research aligns with the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) National Vehicle-to-Everything Deployment plan utilizing wireless communications for vehicles, pedestrians and roadway infrastructure for swifter and safer travel.
- Challenge: Increasingly capable autonomous vehicles and the technologies that underpin these machines have the potential to transform our nation’s roadway system. How can these emerging, potentially transformative technologies be integrated at-scale into existing systems?
- Solution: Noblis’ Autonomous Systems Research Center is developing systems that allow autonomous machines to self-organize at scale and build mechanisms of trust to optimize the interactions of vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians on our roadways.
- Impact: Noblis’ autonomy experts are exploring new ways to advance national safety, efficiency, equity and sustainability goals in transportation.
- Other Potential Applications: Noblis’ advances in autonomous systems and machine self-organization already show promise for freight, logistics and unmanned air and sea fleet applications.
