The MicroE4AI program aims to drive innovations in hardware/ software and algorithm-architecture that improve the performance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) applications packaged in highly efficient, edge-capable microelectronic devices. Additionally, MicroE4AI seeks to cultivate new materials, processing and science...
When most people think of data-storage, what likely comes to mind is the “cloud,” as in cloud storage. For some, the cloud may entertain notions of an amorphous, semi-mysterious location floating in the air where emails, photos, videos, and documents magically reside. In reality, cloud storage is merely large data farms or...
There’s data all around us, invisibly flying at light speed from more locations to more destinations than anyone can count. These data, in the form of radio frequency (RF) signals, are sent by billions of mobile phones, radios, beepers and other devices that make-up modern society’s communications footprint. As...
Entrepreneur Magazine - ...in 2011, [IARPA] launched a huge forecasting tournament for the public. At the beginning, there were five teams, and over the next four years, thousands of ordinary Joes and Janes would answer about 500 questions, like: Will North Korea launch a new multistage missile before May 10, 2014? Will...
EQuAL-P BAA The Naval Information Warfare Center, Pacific (NIWC Pacific), on behalf of the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA), is soliciting proposals under this Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the Effective Quantitative Antenna Limits for Performance (EQuAL-P) Program. The solicitation process will follow Federal...
BBC News - Scientists say they have made a major step forward in efforts to store information as molecules of DNA, which are more compact and long-lasting than other options. The magnetic hard drives we currently use to store computer data can take up lots of space. And they have to be replaced over time. Using...
IARPA is seeking information on methods for evaluating the quality of reasoning in analytic reports on real-life complex issues (e.g., political, social, economic, military, environmental). IARPA is interested in techniques to measure how well analytic reports:• Address all key pieces of evidence, both supporting and...
AGILE BAA IARPA, in partnership with The U.S. Army Research Office (ARO), seeks research and development of innovative, energy-efficient, reliable computer architectures for the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Intelligence Community (IC) to implement large-scale data-analytic applications, as well as...
IARPA is seeking information on established techniques, metrics and capabilities related to the evaluation of generated text and the evaluation of human-interpretable explanations for neural language model behavior. The purposes of this RFI are the following:• Identification of novel human or automatic techniques, metrics and capabilities...
The Intelligence Community (IC) and the Department of Defense (DoD) missions often require the use of electrically small antennas (ESAs) where the size of the antenna is significantly smaller than the wavelength of operation, fundamentally limiting the antenna performance. The Effective Quantitative Antenna...
DNI.gov - The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity, the research and development arm of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, announced today the start of a multi-year research effort aimed at developing smart radio techniques that can automatically detect and characterize radio frequency (RF)...
Some of the hottest, trending languages are Kazakh, Swahili and Pashto. Well, at least for the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC), sometimes that's true. It’s probably safe to say that no organization is more interested in what foreign nationals are saying and writing than the IC. This...
The EQuAL-P program aims to realize significant gains in the performance of electrically small antennas (ESAs) by activating them with non-linear, time varying elements. Intelligence Community missions often require the use of ESAs where the antenna size is significantly smaller than...
TEI-REX BAA- The objective of the Targeted Evaluation of Ionizing Radiation Exposure (TEI-REX) program is to establish novel biodosimetry approaches enabling improved quantification of lower-dose ionizing radiation exposures (<0.75 Gray)[1] from samples that can be collected and/or tested minimally or non-invasively (hereafter...
“Ack, my phone battery is dead.” “Drat, my laptop doesn’t have enough charge for the trip!” “I left my e-book reader in the sun, and the battery overheated!” As it turns out, these common 21st century vacation refrains are also of particular importance to the...
DNI.gov - The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity, the research and development arm of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, announced today a multi-year research effort called the Robust Energy Sources for Intelligence Logistics In Extreme, Novel and Challenging Environments (RESILIENCE)...
The Intelligence Community (IC) seeks methods for evaluating individuals and/or organisms exposed to low doses, potentially as low as 5cGray, of ionizing radiation. The methods anticipate that biomarkers discovered and models developed will leverage samples which can be collected minimally or non-invasively,...
Biologically Templated Nanofabrication RFI - IARPA is seeking responses to this RFI that suggest integrated approaches to biotemplated nanomanufacturing of functional microelectronic devices.Responses to this RFI are asked to address the following questions targeting a specific approach or concept, sorted into 3...
Battelle - Under a contract with IARPA, Battelle has developed a methodology called TechAware Search Continuous Automated Scanning for Technology Transformation (CASTT), which focuses specifically on monitoring technology domains related to epidemics for significant changes and allowing separation...
The Tools for Recognizing Useful Signals of Trustworthiness (TRUST) Program seeks to significantly advance the IC's capabilities to assess who can be trusted under certain conditions and in contexts relevant to the IC, potentially even in the presence of stress and/or deception. The TRUST Program seeks to...
