Data and Decision Sciences

Sandia and the CCR support decision-makers in multiple national security application domains including cyber security, non-proliferation, counterterrorism, and battlefield situational awareness. The decision sciences research is multidisciplinary and blurs the line between computing and humans. This group has extensive experience in a number of computational fields such as discrete math, graph analytics, statistics, machine learning, and visualization, as well as the cognition and cognitive neuroscience that is required to explore and understand human decision-making and cognition.

Focus Areas
  • Our complex systems groups develop underlying computer science and mathematical techniques needed to solve national problems related to large, complex systems. Our core research focuses on advanced methods in computer science, operations research, system dynamics, and discrete mathematics.
