The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. RADIUS: Reliable and Adaptive Decision makIng under Uncertainty for Spectrum access

    SBC: Intelligent Automation, Inc.            Topic: AF13AT02

    ABSTRACT: Intelligent Automation Inc. proposes to design a robust decision making and dynamic spectrum access (DSA) system for satellite communications under uncertainty. Our system integrates various types of uncertainty caused by environment, regulation, uncontrollable user effects, and prediction. We will first develop methods to quantify the uncertainty by either individual observation or col ...

  2. Secure Efficient Cross-domain Protocols

    SBC: INFOBEYOND TECHNOLOGY LLC            Topic: AF13AT08

    ABSTRACT: Coordinating and sharing information across multi-level security (MLS) networks are of great interest in many military applications. However, it is very challenging to accomplish those goals due to the heterogeneous security classifications of different network domains. The recent proposed cross-domain solutions (CDS) provide initial steps to make such applications possible. However, th ...

  5. Representation and Inference for Developing Deep Language Engines (RIDDLE)

    SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC.            Topic: AF13AT11

    ABSTRACT: Intelligence analysts need to process large amounts of text information to form an understanding of a topic of interest. The sheer amount of information can be overwhelming, so automated text analytics that assist with filtering, information extraction, and document understanding, can be highly beneficial. Deep natural language processing (NLP) applications require both structural knowl ...

  6. GUARD: General Utility for Assessing Risk of Disclosure

    SBC: APTIMA INC            Topic: AF13AT14

    ABSTRACT: Information is a national asset that must be protected. To make effective use of this asset, information sharing is critical between government agencies, with foreign government partners, and with the private sector. At the same time, in practice, balancing information sharing and information protection can be difficult. Tools are needed to address many challenges, including managing ...

  7. RADAR: Risk Assessment of Disclosure via Automated Reasoning

    SBC: Intelligent Automation, Inc.            Topic: AF13AT14

    ABSTRACT: We propose a comprehensive Risk Assessment of Disclosure via Automated Reasoning (RADAR) system. This system will leverage and advance various theoretical models in statistical inference (e.g., probe selection and posterior estimation) and information theory (e.g., entropy approach) to obtain a set of analytical tools for information disclosure analysis. These tools are integrated into ...
