Abstract
The Department of Defense (DoD) and the intelligence community (IC) frequently analyze activity based intelligence (ABI) to inform missions about routine patterns of life (POL) and unlikely events that signal important changes. We propose an alternative approach, inverse reinforcement learning (IRL), that observes all states and actions in data and computes a statistical model of the world that includes whether each behavior is part of a routine.
