Quick Summary
SOFWERX, in collaboration with USSOCOM Program Executive Office SOF Digital Applications (PEO-SDA), is hosting an Unmanned Systems Autonomy and Interoperability (UxSAI) Synthetic Data Modeler Assessment Event (AE). This event seeks to identify and evaluate synthetic data generation capabilities for EO/IR computer vision model development. Initial submissions are due June 29, 2026.
Scope of Work
The UxSAI program requires a self-service synthetic data generation platform to produce labeled EO/IR training imagery for AI/ML-enabled computer vision capabilities. The goal is to enhance detection and classification CV algorithm performance for USSOCOM unmanned systems, integrating with the UxSAI software architecture and MLOps pipeline. The selected provider should deliver a platform that UxSAI personnel can operate organically, without ongoing vendor dependency.
