- Description
- IARPA is seeking innovative solutions for the Socio-Cultural Content in Language (SCIL) Program. The Program intends to explore and develop novel designs, algorithms, methods, techniques and technologies to extend the discovery of the social goals of members of a group by correlating these goals with the language they use. Human language use reflects social and cultural norms, contexts and expectations. Social variables (such as religion, status, gender, education) and contextual features (such as formality, participant beliefs, social situation) can influence the form and features of language. Because language use responds to such social and cultural influences, then correlating social goals and language forms and content should provide a rich and expanded understanding of the attributes, roles and nature of the associations and intentions of the members of social groups. The goals of the SCIL Program are 1) to use existing social science theories to identify the social goals of a group and its members; 2) to correlate these social goals with the language used by the members; 3) to automate this correlation; 4) to provide insight into and evidence for the nature and status of the group and the roles and relationships of its members; and 5) to attempt to generalize the behaviors across cultures in order to highlight the contrasts and similarities in accomplishing social goals. Full IARPA-BAA-09-01 Document is Attached. PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT the same BAA as was released on 06 February 2008 through the Department of Interior National Business Center AQD - Sierra Vista. Potential Offerors should be aware that the BAA has changed. Questions and Answers associated with this solicitation are being managed on http://www.iarpa.gov/scil_questions.html.
