AI Change Detection

Definition

AI Change Detection is detection of meaningful differences across images, maps, sensor passes, or operational data over time. In defense applications, it flags new vehicles, disturbed soil, damaged infrastructure, emitter changes, or altered patterns of life. The hard part is false alarms from lighting, weather, and sensor geometry, especially when systems are deployed across contested links, coalition boundaries, and mixed human-machine teams. KhanBMS treats it as a persistent ISR function for KhanBMS watch areas, tying the concept back to modular command, edge execution, and auditable authority.
