The ability to assess trustworthiness is vital for many Intelligence Community missions and organizations, as well as for society in general.

The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) recently sponsored a set of studies that recorded informed volunteers’ neural, physiological and behavioral signals while the volunteers interacted in pairs. During the interactions, one partner made a promise to the other, then either kept or broke that promise. The resulting data comprise the INSTINCT (Investigating Novel Statistical Techniques to Identify Neurophysiological Correlates of Trustworthiness) Challenge.

The challenge offers $50,000 in prizes for the creation of innovative algorithms that use the first volunteer’s signals to accurately predict the second volunteer’s choice. Can you predict who will keep their promise … and who will break it?

The INSTINCT Challenge is open to submissions through May 5, 2014. Learn more at http://www.iarpa.gov/INSTINCT.
