Field-portable radiation detectors are a widely used technology for defense, environmental monitoring, and industry applications dealing with radioactive sources. From nuclear weapon accident emergencies to routine monitoring for health and safety, having reliable, field ready equipment is essential for mission success. However, the alpha and beta radiation detectors currently available in the mar ...

ML is a subset of AI. Discrimination based on SI signals is a module in monitoring systems(NDC & IDC. We will provde a prototype  that will incorporate elements of the discrimination procedures found

Improvements will be made to the platform architecture and electronics to enhance system capability. Integration of Pegasus Mini into FoS allows Pegasus Mini to leverage capabilities FoS already uses.

A significant performance gap exists between the theoretical number of Floating Point Operations (FLOPS) that an HPC machine is capable of sustaining and the number of FLOPS realized by real-world HPC software. One of the principal reasons for this gap is the parasitic work that computational processes must do to communicate with one another. It has been shown that this communication work can be s ...

Intelligent Automation, Inc. (IAI), along with our collaborators, has successfully conducted a proof-of-concept study for a Scalable and Automated Tool to Analyze and Identify Dual Use Research of Concern from Scientific Publications: SAT-DURC. The key innovation of our proposed approach is a novel DURC identification system that combines the strength of natural language processing with machine le ...

Current state-of-the-art object detection algorithms are almost exclusively based on Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN). These algorithms all require a large number of labeled examples for each of the object categories they can recognize. These algorithms will fail for novel objects that only very few or even no prior examples are available. These algorithms are also far less accurate when c ...

During the Phase I effort, Semandex Networks and its team developed a prototype capability to detect trends in research publications by automatically identifying emerging concepts within the data. The implemented capability provides insights into past and

The increasing complexity of devices, reduced budgets and accelerated program timelines, requires a new approach to predicting radiation of integrated circuit (IC) designs. Most approaches to date require gate level analysis and do not scale easily to device level calculations, leading to methods that are note practical under most program timeline and cost budgets. Previously, DfR Solutions has de ...

The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) recognizes the need for low-power high-bandwidth radiation-hard optical interconnects to process more data more quickly and to replace electronic data.Our companys core development in optical communications with semiconductor materials is a unique fit for DTRAs low-power consumption high-bandwidth radiation-hard intra-chip communication components for sat ...
