New Frontiers of Robust Statistics in the Era of Big Data
Modern technologies have facilitated the collection of an unprecedented amount of features with complex structures. Although extensive progress has been made towards extracting use...
DNA Base Excision Repair in Chromatin
The environment contains many reactive species that can damage DNA in living organisms. Exposure to these reactive species generates an array of DNA damage lesions that alter the g...
Models and Algorithms for Optimal Vision-Based Surveillance and Exploration of Complex Environments
The PI plans to develop the mathematics and corresponding algorithms to determine optimal locations to observe and map out complex unknown domains with moving obstacles. This proje...
Collaborative Research: Pollution Mitigation and Productivity in Developing Countries
The economies of many developing countries have experienced huge transformations over the past 20-years, but a major cost of development has been air and water pollution. The fact...
Deep Learning on Manifolds: New Architectures and Theoretical Foundations
Over the last couple of decades, deep learning approaches have achieved breakthrough performance in a broad range of learning problems from a variety of applications fields such as...
Foundations of High-Dimensional and Nonparametric Hypothesis Testing
Statistical inferential tools are the main export from the discipline of statistics to the empirical sciences, serving as the primary lens through which natural scientists interpre...
Novel Imine Formation by ATP Grasp Enzymes
With the support of the Chemistry of Life Processes Program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Yousong Ding will collaborate with Drs. Steven Bruner and Gustavo Seabra, all from the...
Operators on Banach Spaces
The mathematician Stefan Banach defined a mathematical object that we now call a Banach space. The theory of Banach spaces extended certain work of Volterra and Hilbert, among othe...
Preparing Skilled Technicians in Geographical Information Systems for Agricultural and Land Management Fields
Technological innovations and advancements in geographic information systems (GIS) enable better management of land resources. For example, GIS-based agricultural practices enable...
Towards van der Waals Crystal Based Thermal Superconductors
In 1955, Fermi, Pasta, Ulam, and Tsingou reported their “shocking little discovery” that an excited vibration mode in single atomic chains did not dissipate into heat over a long p...
Connecting Students with Autism to Geographic Information Science & Technology Careers
Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are less likely to start or graduate from a postsecondary educational training program than their peers. Additionally, they are routine...
Partially Hyperbolic Diffeomorphisms, Foliations, and Flows
The field of dynamical systems studies properties of functions under repeated iterations, including their periodic and long-time behavior. Dynamical systems have many applications,...
Electronics and Engineering Technician Training in High Technology for the 21st Century
As technological innovation continues to determine the competitiveness of U.S. industries, businesses are seeking employees who possess the skills to engage with new technologies b...
Dynamics, Integrability, and Control of Mechanical and Physical Systems
The project focuses on mechanical systems and control and has many applications in industry, such as in the control of robotic systems and design of vehicles and other complex mech...
Measuring and modeling particle enrichment in jet drops from bursting bubbles
Particulates, such as bacteria and viruses, can be aerosolized from contaminated water sources when air bubbles rise to the surface of the water and pop, forming jet drops. The con...
RUI: Operator Theory and Its Connections
This proposal revolves around two novel threads, both of which have already borne copious fruit for the PI, his students, and his collaborators in the last few years. The first con...
Cooperativity Driven Communication through Noncovalent Networks in Biomimetic Systems
With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Marcey Waters of the University of North Carolina at Chapel...
Engineering Responsive Chemical Heterogeneity in Protein Vesicles for Simultaneous Delivery of Diverse Cargoes
Non-Technical SummaryThe work proposed here creates protein vesicles, tiny hollow containers made from proteins, that can bind to specific types of cells and carry three different...
National Academies Space Weather Operations and Research Infrastructure Workshop, Phase II; 2021-22; Washington, District of Columbia
The National Academies (NASEM) Space Studies Board will hold a workshop on the future research agenda and infrastructure needed to improve understanding of space weather phenomena,...
Expanding Thurston Maps and Fractal Geometry
In nature, there are many phenomena that exhibit fractal features, such lightning bolts, growth patterns of plants and crystals, snowflakes, or coastlines and river networks. In ma...
