Extracting Valid Inferences from Data, Evidence, and Novel Tests (EVIDENT)
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: AF12BT01ABSTRACT: A recent study by the National Research Council found that sophisticated statistical techniques are finding their way into DoD operational test design, but that current DoD practices are still substantially behind the state of the art. The study concluded this has resulted in inefficient test designs, wasted resources, and less effective acquisition decision making. US Air Force test an ...

Biologically Inspired Plasmonic Integrated Multi-Color Sensors (BI-PIMS)
SBC: AGILTRON, INC. Topic: AF12BT03ABSTRACT: In this program, Agiltron, Inc. and Harvard University will develop a biologically-inspired integrated sensor that can detect the UV, visible (VIS), near infrared (NIR), and mid-wave infrared (MWIR) bands. This sensor will be integrated with plasmonic filters to provide additional information from the radiation field that may not be available to common image sensors. The advanced integr ...

SWIR Image Sensor Based on SiGe Nanomembranes
SBC: AGILTRON, INC. Topic: AF10BT14ABSTRACT: Agiltron and the University of WisconsinMadison will develop the first SWIR Image Sensor with a flexible FPA. The sensor is based on the integration of single-crystal Si and Ge nanomembranes, which has the potential to achieve defect-free Ge-based photodiodes for SWIR imaging while eliminating the need for an epitaxial step. In Phase I, we have successfully demonstrated Ge-based PIN pho ...

Self-Reconfigurable Memristor-Based Computing Architecture: Design, Fabrication, and Characterization
SBC: Bio Inspired Technologies, LLC Topic: AF10BT31ABSTRACT: The chalcogenide based ion-conducting memristor has been shown to be an effective element as the core of a simple neuromorphic computing circuit. The response of the computing circuit is the result of weighted external stimuli, the current state of the device, and the history of exposure by the device to the stimuli. A highly specialized version of the device, as developed by the Advanc ...

Semi-Supervised Algorithms against Malware Evolution (SESAME)
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: AF11BT21ABSTRACT: Recent years have seen an explosion in the number and sophistication of malware attacks. The sheer volume of novel malware has made purely manual signature development impractical and has led to research on applying machine learning and data mining to automatically infer malware signatures in the wild. Unfortunately, researchers have recently found ways to game the machine learning algo ...

Precise fabrication of integrated photonic and optoelectronic systems using low-cost nanoimprint process
SBC: Sinoora Inc. Topic: OSD10T006There are major technical and financial barriers that are preventing Si photonics and optoelectronics to transition from R & D to commercial product domain. The main technical challenge is the nanometric scale precision required for proper functioning of Si photonic devices. High index contrast of Si with its cladding materials allows reducing the size of photonic elements and hence allows packing ...
