We will develop, demonstrate, and built a sensor array designed frommathematical models thatare based on the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE), the Cramer- Rao lower bound (CRB), and the density function theory(DFT). The MLE will be used to estimate the concentration of the gases inside a mixture by minimizing the error trough the Cramer-Rao bound.The DFT method will model thephysisorption and che ...

Deep learning offers a powerful and extensible toolset to achieve or exceed human-level accuracy for automatic object detection in stream of commerce data. However, in order to train deep machine learning-models for 2D and 3D screening a significant quantity of high-quality ground-truth training data is required.We propose SoCPhysics: A Stream-of-Commerce Physics-Based Data Generation Application, ...

Cybersecurity risk management in complicated and dynamic environment is challenging. On one hand, cybersecurity knowledge management is complex and needs to be updated promptly with continuously emerging cybersecurity attacks and risks. The companies have to select fuse a lot of input data with their own experience for cybersecurity risk management. On the other hand, while the same or similar vul ...

WGS Systems LLC (WGS) proposes the Detector Integration with Current and Emerging Networked Systems (DICENS) research and engineering effort to develop relevant communications protocols, application programming interfaces, and interface control documentation to allow legacy and emerging radiation detection systems to be integrated into current and emerging networked systems.Radiation and nuclear ( ...

Rapid, reliable, and accurate detection of radiation is critical in preparing for and responding to potential terrorist attacks with a radiological dispersal device (RDD) or "dirty bomb". Current detection methods using handheld or vehicle-borne detectors are inefficient, labor-intensive, and often limited to small screening areas. Deploying a small autonomous UAS carrying a radiation detector has ...

Next Century's CPACT (CheckPoint Advanced Computed Tomography) solution aims to fill a mission-critical need for easy, rapid, accurate, and intuitive adjudication of bags at airport security checkpoints using CT imagery. The goal of CPACT (pronounced "see packed") is to enable TSA and our nation to reap the benefits of the increased security that 3D CT imagery can provide without introducing delay ...

For this SBIR Intelligent Automation Inc. (IAI), teamed with researchers from Department of Dermatology, University of Maryland School of Medicine, propose to develop a smartphone based dermatology diagnosis system, MDerm that can be operated by warriors

Servicemembers exposed to blasts have frequent complaints of vertigo, gaze instability, balance problems, motion intolerance, and other symptoms consistent with peripheral vestibular pathology. Current vestibular rehabilitation is an exercise-based approa

Care for the wounded Warfighters in austere and remote settings makes medical knowledge, skills and efficiency of the military medical professional paramount. For wounds that extend deep into internal anatomy, proper visualization of internal anatomy can

In operational medicine, DHA continues to face challenges in documenting patient treatments at the point of injury in Theater, through moving records with the patient back to Garrison. The challenge includes: 1) the documentation and capture of data el
