The document is a Broad Agency Announcement from the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) soliciting proposals for the Automated Low-level Analysis and Description of Diverse Intelligence Video (ALADDIN) program. The goal of the ALADDIN program is to develop technology that can automatically analyze massive numbers of open source video clips to identify and describe clips containing specific events of interest defined by analysts. The technology would create a symbolic representation of video content that could be quickly searched to find event occurrences and provide detailed yet understandable descriptions. IARPA is seeking innovative solutions through this Broad Agency Announcement and anticipates making multiple awards for contracts starting in early 2011 through early 2016.
