A mathematical framework for detection and classification of weak, distributed patterns on computer networks is proposed. The framework will provide rigorous methods for understanding performance bounds and optimality of intrusion detection methods, while also providing concrete and implementable algorithms. The algorithms will find immediate application in cyber-security efforts, as well as mor ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Wide varieties of peripheral neuropathies accompanied by severe chronic pain are among the most common and debilitating human afflictions. Existing treatments have little long term benefits and often have severe side effects. Increasing evidence indicates that pathologies in the structure and chemistry of the skin and its innervation are likely contributors to ...

Electromagnetic launchers or rail guns are a key component of the Navy’s all-electric ship of the future, but they lack the durability required for repeated firings. TDA Research and the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) are developing a tough, durable and conductive refractory metal coating that will protect the copper alloy conductors (rails) from the extreme heat and wear conditions inside the ...
