<b>HITIQA: A Question Answering Analytical Tool</b>
 
HITIQA (High Quality Interactive Question Answering)
is currently being developed to assist analysts
in finding answers to complex intelligence
problems, efficiently and thoroughly. The system
uses event-based, data-driven semantic processing
and natural language dialogue, coupled with an advanced
information visualization interface, to deliver
accurate answers to the analyst?s questions
along with related contextual information. The first
version of the system has undergone a series of
preliminary evaluations with the analysts from the
US Naval Reserve, producing valuable usage and
performance data. These evaluations suggest that
HITIQA creates a measurable cognitive augmentation
effect for the analyst. The second more advanced
version of the system is currently being implemented
