Objective Summary

Develop an autonomous Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) reasoning agent that fuses passive and active acoustic detections with non-acoustic maritime situational data, environmental acoustic propagation context, and platform/target behavior models to produce explainable contact assessments, track hypotheses, and recommended sensor-tasking actions; and supports deployment on an Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) with constrained communications, power, and computing conditions.

The full objective, description, Phase I, II and III requirements and evaluation criteria are in the official topic on DSIP.
