STRIAD:HAMOC
Strategic analysis for conflict and crisis response.
STRIAD:HAMOC enables machine-speed analysis of the human environment in conflict areas and defence operations
STRIAD:HAMOC is a cloud-based situational awareness and decision-support application servicing a data-driven understanding of the human environment in complex operational scenarios. It collates and analyses large amounts of multi-source data, leveraging purpose-built Ethical AI and machine learning algorithms and enabling decision-makers to understand not just the ‘what’ of a situation, but also the ‘why’.
The Problems
Information overload puts understanding and insight at a premium
Understanding the human environment requires accessing large volumes of data, distilling what’s valuable, understanding what’s important, and swiftly integrating this understanding into decision-making. Leveraging the power of open-source data is critical for enabling defence and security professionals to understand the human environment and make fast, agile and evidence-based decisions.
More time processing means less time deciding
To this day, decision-makers often remain hampered by outdated software and reliant on manual data processing, which increases operational overhead and delays crucial decisions. Using our Ethical AI tools (such as NLP and ML), STRIAD:HAMOC processes vast quantities of data at scale, giving decision-makers the time they need to apply professional judgement and make informed decisions.
Decision-makers need digestible insights
In high-pressure environments with time and attention at a premium, decision-makers need to understand the essence of what’s happening and what it means, fast. They need vast amounts of information to be distilled into digestible bite-sized takeaways which can be smoothly factored into their wider planning processes.
Features
STRIAD:HAMOC lets users sift through large amounts of information and uncover insights that matter
Geospatial analysis: Mapping the human environment
With STRIAD:HAMOC’s interactive mapping tools, users can easily search and visualise multi-source information covering various dimensions of the human environment.
Text analysis: AI-enabled document research and analysis
Perform rapid, AI-enabled document research and analysis using a range of parameters and criteria, including human security themes (such as food security or environmental security), key entities (such as location, person, and organisation), and keywords.
Custom search engine: Search fluidly and naturally
STRIAD:HAMOC’s custom-built search engine lets users search fluidly and naturally across all data in the system, including parameters such as source, date, theme, location, keyword, and granularity.
Multi-source data ingestion: Broaden STRIAD:HAMOC’s data coverage
STRIAD:HAMOC can ingest data from a range of external connectors including APIs and RSS feeds, enabling users to fuse and search across insights from multiple sources to generate a single operating picture.
Making HAMOC Ethical
Ethics-by-design
Our ethics experts are embedded within our product teams and work to understand the potential ethical impact of STRIAD:HAMOC, to look for ethical opportunities in technical design and UI/UX, and to identify and mitigate potential ethical risks (e.g., bias in the datasets)
Explainability
Ethics experts worked alongside data engineers to increase explainability features of HAMOC's output (e.g., ordering of search results)
Bias mitigation
We ensured that the data research team was as diverse as possible including different ages, genders, sex and background. We also looked for biases inherent in datasets in order to mitigate any resulting discriminatory effects
STRIAD:HAMOC Ecosystem
Today’s societal problems are complex and multi-faceted. Technology has the power to help in incredibly valuable ways, but we believe it’s people who are (and should) remain at the heart of solving our biggest problems and making the right decisions. That’s why our ethical AI products are embedded in an ecosystem of sociotechnical services, from data protection and privacy to in-depth subject matter expertise. Read more about our sociotechnical approach here.
Our Data Protection team helps ensure HAMOC is built from the ground up with data protection, privacy-by-design, and security-by-design principles in mind. The team is always on-hand, ready go providing the in-depth yet practical support needed to understand your concerns and requirements, help confidently navigate regulatory and ethical challenges, and ensure you can access and leverage the right data in the right way – responsibly, confidently, and ethically.
Our Cybersecurity team provides critical data protection and cybersecurity support to STRIAD. From data sharing agreements to Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), the team helps navigate the regulatory hurdles, data silos, and other barriers involved in getting valuable data into our customers’ hands in a safe, secure, and reliable way.
Our Ethics Innovation team provides continuous ethics-by-design guidance and conducts an ethical impact assessment on all of Trilateral’s products. Doing this for HAMOC created tangible accountability, explainability and bias-mitigation system requirements.
Our Sociotech Insights Group (SIG) team provided social science expertise for developing HAMOC’s text analytics. The thematic text analytics algorithm employs a reference dataset in a text classification architecture, for which SIG researchers compiled a range of relevant texts for the reference dataset and created a labelling schema for annotating the dataset. The result of this effort is an augmented analyst experience that surfaces valuable insights from more information, at speed.
Our Innovation & Research (I&R) team conducted extensive research into the human environment and human security issues to support the development of HAMOC. This includes identifying, collecting, curating, and creating the right data to provide the insights our users need to develop a stronger understanding of the human environment.
