Human social interaction is complicated by ambiguous identities, misinformation, misdirection, and flexible alliances. Additionally, thanks to the internet, authors can post messages from anywhere in the world, in diverse forms, and with different personas. Current solutions are challenged to accurately identify and characterize authors across platforms and data types, let alone infer authorial in ...

Grid-tied energy storage systems provide stabilization to the electric grid that is necessary to accommodate the growing percentage of electricity generated by intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. Existing conversion systems between the storage media and the utility lines are large, costly and only 95%-98% energy efficient. In this ARPA-E project, Opcondys, Inc. will build ...

Rugged, comfortable and reliable physiological monitoring systems are required to allow military commanders and medical personnel to assess the basic health and readiness of the warfighter. Direct monitoring of the health and status of individual warfight

Current airborne sensors produce very large volumes of data, but the airborne battle managers aboard BMC2 platforms do not have the appropriate analytics to process this massive data. Lack of appropriate analytics represents a missed opportunity to extract additional and timely actionable intelligence, especially considering the fact that, in most cases, data bandwidth to the command center is lim ...

The inability to plan in real-time is a major reason why robot manufacturing is restricted to high-value, high-volume products, in carefully engineered factories where robots blindly repeat pre-programmed trajectories. Today, robots simply cannot generate collision-free motion on the fly. We are solving this core problem—real-time motion planning in unstructured, fluid environments and on divers ...

A new approach is proposed for Accelerated Modifications using Physics-substantiated Safety Arguments (AMPS). We leverage evidence-based certification methodology and Safety Arguments (SAs) to map modifications to system architecture and behaviors. We integrate formal methods to build SAs that trace the impact of modifications through complex system interactions. AMPS connects SAs to critical desi ...

Project Summary Abstract Cytobank is the leading cloud based platform for analysis and storage of single cell flow and mass cytometry datatechnologies that are essential for investigating the interplay between the immune system and disease conditions including cancerThere are numerous data analysis steps between raw data and insight especially for many single cell technologieswhere the data analys ...

ISCA plans to greatly improve on existing state of the art in rodent control by creating synthetic semiochemical lures that are significantly more attractive to rats, and that will last significantly longer in the field than current food-based lures. This SBIR Phase I project will follow up on the successful chemical-ecological preliminary work done, during which precise blends of five novel semio ...
