Super-resolution community detection for layer-aggregated multilayer networks
Summary
Summary
Applied network science often involves preprocessing network data before applying a network-analysis method, and there is typically a theoretical disconnect between these steps. For example, it is common to aggregate time-varying network data into windows prior to analysis, and the trade-offs of this preprocessing are not well understood. Focusing on...
SIAM data mining "brings it" to annual meeting
Summary
Summary
The Data Mining Activity Group is one of SIAM's most vibrant and dynamic activity groups. To better share our enthusiasm for data mining with the broader SIAM community, our activity group organized six minisymposia at the 2016 Annual Meeting. These minisymposia included 48 talks organized by 11 SIAM members.
Very large graphs for information extraction (VLG) - detection and inference in the presence of uncertainty
Summary
Summary
In numerous application domains relevant to the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community, data of interest take the form of entities and the relationships between them, and these data are commonly represented as graphs. Under the Very Large Graphs for Information Extraction effort--a one year proof-of-concept study--MIT LL developed...
Advisory services for user composition tools
Summary
Summary
We have developed an ontology based framework that evaluates compatibility between processing modules within an end user development framework, using MIT Lincoln Laboratory's Composable Analytics environment as a test case. In particular, we focus on inter-module semantic compatibility as well as compatibility between data and modules. Our framework includes a...
Time delay integration and in-pixel spatiotemporal filtering using a nanoscale digital CMOS focal plane readout
Summary
Summary
A digital focal plane array (DFPA) architecture has been developed that incorporates per-pixel full-dynamic-range analog-to-digital conversion and orthogonal-transfer-based realtime digital signal processing capability. Several long-wave infrared-optimized pixel processing focal plane readout integrated circuit (ROIC) designs have been implemented, each accommodating a 256 x 256 30-um-pitch detector array. Demonstrated in this...
Miss distance analysis for command guided missiles
Summary
Summary
A concise theoretical technique is presented for estimating the minimum miss distance capability of command guided missile systems using synthetic proportional navigation. The effect of the parameter values on the system capability is shown to be a function of range-to-intercept; the technique enables the system designer and analyst to quantify...
