Update #4 · Latest ·

UPDATE (04/11/2022): The purpose of this update is to publish BAA Amendment 002, which clarifies Section 4.A. Proposal Information and Section 4.B.1 Volume 1: Technical and Management Proposal. All changes for BAA Amendment 002 are highlighted in green. Proposal due dates remain unchanged. 

UPDATE (04/04/2022): Questions and Answers (Q&A) Round 2 (Q.5 - Q.46) are uploaded. As a result of Q+A Round 2, the BAA has been amended and is uploaded. All changes for BAA Amendment 001 are highlighted in yellow.  Proposal due dates remain unchanged. 

UPDATE (03/11/2022): Questions and Answers (Q&A) Round 1 (Q.1 - Q.4) are uploaded. No changes were made to the BAA.  Proposal due dates remain unchanged. IARPA will continue to accept questions until March 18, 2022 @ 5:00 PM EST. A subsequent amendment will be issued to provide Government responses.

This BAA (IARPA-BAA-22-01) is for the Human Interpretable Attribution of Text using Underlying Structure (HIATUS) Program. IARPA seeks innovative solutions for the HIATUS Program which is envisioned to be a 42-month effort, beginning approximately September 30, 2022 through March 29, 2026.

The HIATUS program seeks to develop novel human-useable systems for attributing authorship and protecting author privacy through identification and leveraging of explainable linguistic fingerprints. HIATUS Performers will focus on three task areas (TAs). The program will develop novel methods to generate a stylistic feature space in which each author is represented in stable fashion across diverse text types (TA1). Using this feature space, the program will also create human-interpretable algorithms for authorship attribution (TA2) and author privacy (TA3). Technical approaches must scale to other languages.

Questions on administrative, technical, or contractual issues can be submitted by email to: DNI-IARPA-BAA-22-01@iarpa.gov. IARPA will accept questions until March 18, 2022 @ 5:00 PM EST.   Proposal Due Date for Initial Round of Selections is April 18, 2022 @ 4:00 PM EST.

See attached BAA for further details.
