Closed-Loop Feedback Control for Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation, Phase II.
SBC: QUANTUM APPLIED SCIENCE & RESEARCH INC Topic: AF17BT002Human analysts are presented with ever-increasing amounts of data to process, taxing the limitations of human cognitive capacity. This cognitive overloading leads to increased likelihood of errors and accidents, with costly consequences in mission critical operations. Consequently, there is a rising demand for more efficient processing of increasingly large amounts of intelligence. Transcranial di ...

Carbon Nanotube FET Modeling and RF circuits
SBC: CARBON TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: AF18BT006Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have great potential for high performance RF applications. Theoretical study has shown that the electrical current in a CNT field effect transistor (CFET) is intrinsically linear. Today, linearity is the underlying limitation in increasing the data transport densities of wireless networks. The complex modulation protocols used to achieve higher data rates requires linear am ...

Innovations in Physical Modeling and Statistical Exploitation of Electromagnetic Target Signatures
SBC: Five Focal LLC Topic: AF12BT06ABSTRACT: Feature extraction and target recognition suffer from a lack of a reliable model for both exploitable target features and the electromagnetic signature they possess. Signature data are often hard to interpret and invert to recover the target robustly. Bayesian learning approaches to statistical pattern recognition are based on the use of training sets of inputs and outputs, a data mode ...
