The Defense Sciences Office at DARPA is offering this grant to solicit innovative research proposals focused on developing new simulation capabilities. This grant is specifically for the purpose of testing the accuracy and robustness of causal modeling methods, particularly those applied to understanding complex human social systems and behaviors. Researchers are sought to investigate revolutionary approaches that will enable significant advancements in social science modeling, simulation, and causal inference. Proposals that primarily result in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice are specifically excluded, emphasizing the need for groundbreaking methodologies in this crucial area.
