Deception and Delay in Organized Conflict

Essays on the Mathematical Theory of Maskirovka

by Rodrick Wallace ...

Series series Intelligent Technologies and Robotics (R0)
This book explores the role of deception, delay, and self-deception in the dynamics of organized conflict, taking a formal approach that hews closely to the asymptotic limit theorems of information and control theories. The resulting probability models can, with some effort—and some confidence—be converted to statistical tools for the analysis of real-time observational and ‘experimental’ data on ... Read more
