Formable Preform for Advanced Ceramic Matrix Composite Structures
SBC: PEPIN ASSOCIATES INC Topic: DLA23A003Pepin Associates, Inc. has developed a unique, aligned discontinuous textile reinforcement for composite structures. This reinforcement architecture is composed of short, overlapped tow segments. The architecture allows the textile to stretch in its reinforcement direction. This ability permits rapid fabrication of complex shaped thermal protection system structures from simple low cost sh ...

Multi-Task Scale Aware Continuous and Localizable Embeddings
SBC: KITWARE INC Topic: OSD22A001NGA uses deep networks for many tasks including image registration, land cover segmentation, and object detection. Current deep learning approaches develop specialist networks for each task and type of data. Not only is this inefficient, because networks can’t be reused across tasks, this approach ignores correlations between tasks and data sources that can improve performance. In response, we w ...

sUAS Munition Teaming for Advanced Precision Strike
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: SOCOM21C001Precision-guided munitions have demonstrated dramatic effects with minimal collateral damage. New technology developed specifically to deny them accurate guidance information is now feasible, even for non-traditional adversaries. Further, digital communications are flooding the air with signals that interfere with communications many guidance methods rely on. Swarms of small, covert small Uncrewed ...

Algorithm Performance Evaluation with Low Sample Size
SBC: SIGNATURE RESEARCH, INC. Topic: NGA20C001The team of Signature Research, Inc. and Michigan Technological University will develop and demonstrate methods and metrics to evaluate the performance of machine learning-based computer vision algorithms with low numbers of samples of labeled EO imagery. We will use the existing xView panchromatic dataset to demonstrate a proof-of-concept set of tools. If successful, in Phase II, we will extend t ...

Additive Manufacturing Sensor Fusion Technologies for Process Monitoring and Control.
SBC: SENVOL LLC Topic: DLA18A001The Department of Defense (DoD) has a demand for out-of-production parts to maintain mission readiness of various weapons platforms. Additive manufacturing (AM) is an exciting and promising manufacturing technique that can make out-of-production parts and holds the potential to solve supply chain issues, such as high costs (i.e. for low-volume parts) and sole sourcing risks. The ability of AM to s ...

System for Nighttime and Low-Light Face Recognition
SBC: Systems & Technology Research LLC Topic: SOCOM18A001Face recognition performance using deep learning has seen dramatic improvements in recent years. This improvement has been fueled in part by the curation of large labeled training datasets with millions of images of hundreds of thousands of subjects.This results in effective generalization for matching over pose, illumination, expression and age variation, however these datasets have traditionally ...

Human Performance Optimization
SBC: REJUVENATE BIO INC Topic: SOCOM17C001Special Operations Forces (SOF) are an integral aspect of the US military. SOF operators are among the most elite and highly qualified individuals in the U.S. military. As such, extraordinary physical and mental demands are placed upon them to excel in extreme environments for extended periods of time. This unrelenting cycle of combat deployments and intense pre-deployment training shortens the fu ...

Using Magnetic Levitation for Non-Destructive Detection of Defective and Counterfeit Materiel
SBC: Nano Terra, Inc. Topic: DLA15C001The introduction of substandard or counterfeit materials into the DoD supply chain can have extremely expensive, and potentially life threatening, consequences. Current techniques used to detect nonconforming materiel can be destructive (e.g., manual sectioning and inspection of a part), time consuming and expensive (e.g., micro-computed tomography, ultrasound), or provide only limited informatio ...
