This paper documents progress to date on a research project, the goal of which is wartime event prediction. The paper describes the operational concept, the datamining environment, and the data-mining techniques that use Bayesian networks for classification. Key steps in the research plan are (1)implement machine learning, (2) test the trained networks, and (3) use the technique to support a battlefield commander by predicting enemy attacks. Data for training and testing the technique can be extracted from the object-oriented database that supports the Integrated Marine Multi-Agent Command and Control System (IMMACCS). The class structure in the IMMACCS data model is especially well suited to support attack classification.
