Leidos (NYSE: LDOS), a FORTUNE® 500 science and technology leader, has entered a strategic collaboration with Permion, an artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) platform company, to accelerate the use of AI in critical national security mission sets.
“Our collaboration with Permion will help advance data-driven decision making and operational support for government agencies and organizations,” said Leidos Intelligence Group chief technology officer Robert Franceschini. “Game-changing technologies like AI are evolving at a rapid pace, as we’ve witnessed over the last year alone. By joining forces with Permion we can leverage their impressive neurosymbolic and generative AI technology. Using Permion’s advanced platform with our trusted AI/ML will enable both companies to deliver AI-enhanced capabilities to our customers – when and where it’s needed most.”
“As a major systems integrator with industry-leading systems engineering expertise, Leidos is the perfect collaborator for Permion’s new data-oriented computing AI platform,” said Permion CEO Arun Majumdar. “Together, we expect to have an ability to deliver the leap-ahead results critical for the advancement of national security, competitive advantage and overmatch.”
Through this collaboration, Leidos and Permion will use Permion’s advanced AI platform with Leidos’ existing and future technology capabilities. In particular, Leidos expects to leverage Permion’s X-Machines Instruction Set Architecture (XVM-ISA™), a data-oriented computing platform for AI. This would enhance applications and capabilities that can be deployed on the tactical edge, on-premises or in the cloud.
Leidos and Permion are also in the process of developing and testing an additional explainable knowledge-graph generative AI/LLM cognitive solution. This offering was drawn from Permion’s current Open-Source Intelligence and Relationship Inference System (OSIRIS™) and built on XVM-ISA™. The solution is expected to feature decision support, data analytics and high-value prediction capabilities, enabling both companies to support the AI needs of government customers.
