The pace of remotely sensed data collection is increasing exponentially while the skilled workforce that is available to analyze and interpret the data is not. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers a technology pathway to automation which promises to rapidly reduce the gap between data and information products and services. However, AI techniques require massive quantities of labeled data to train m ...

Satellite platforms play a critical role in the modern defense and intelligence infrastructure, providing timely, detailed, and readily available imagery to support U.S. national security. An ever present and fundamental requirement for this type of data is automated target detection and recognition, helping to quickly locate and correctly identify targets from vast quantities of image data. Despi ...

Existing THz devices have not yet provided all the imaging functionalities required to fulfill non-destructive imaging and remote sensing applications. Most of the THz imaging and spectroscopy systems utilize single-pixel detectors, which results in a severe trade-off between the measurement time and field-of-view.   Lack of large-format (many-pixel) sensor arrays is one of the major hurdles for ...

A fundamental requirement for this type of data is automated target detection and recognition, helping analysts to quickly locate and correctly identify targets of interest from vast quantities of image data. De ...

Detect and Identify Automated Labeler for Radar (DIALR)  Prime Solutions Group, Inc. (PSG) proposes Detect and Identify Automated Labeler for Radar (DIALR) for Research and Development (R&D) and demonstration of an algorithm framework for automated labeling of target classes in radar imagery. This provides a baseline for automatically labeling multiple target classes in Synthetic Aperture Radar ...

Satellite and airborne platforms provide timely, detailed, and readily available still and full-motion imagery to support U.S. national security. A constant requirement for this type of data is automated object detection and recognition, helping analysts to quickly locate and correctly identify targets of interest from vast quantities of image data. This requirement is made more challenging when a ...

Expanding constellations of earth observation satellites are drastically increasing the availability of satellite imagery to the US government, providing timely, detailed, and readily available intelligence for mission planning and situational awareness on a global scale. Under the DARPA funded SBIR Phase 2 GEOMETRIX program, VSI developed an innovative ecosystem to distill and reconcile commercia ...

The company's existing platform, Zuni, is an online platform that hosts more than 200,000 open education resources (OERs) aligned to state standards in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) and for social emotional learning. In this project, the researchers will increase the functionality of the platform for teachers and students. The Phase I prototype will include a feature to ...

Purpose: Students who fail to achieve proficient levels of literacy are at increased risk for grade retention, referral to special education, and dropping out of high school. The kindergarten through 3rd grade years are particularly important for students to gain a strong foundation in reading as those who continue to struggle with reading are significantly less likely to achieve reading proficien ...
