Analysis, Simulation, and Applications of Stochastic Systems
Stochastic systems are systems in which random disturbances play a significant role. Stemming from emerging and existing applications in networked systems, wireless communications,...
Collaborative: EAGER: Demonstration that Thin Film Phase Transformations Can Be Monitored at High-Temperature and High-Pressure in a Diamond Anvil Cell
Phase transitions and the associated volume changes strongly influence materials’ properties. When occurring in minerals in subduction zones - where one tectonic plate dives undern...
SCC-CIVIC-PG Track A: Community Hub for Smart Mobility
Due to issues of housing affordability, Americans often must live far from their jobs. This spatial mismatch causes commuter traffic congestion resulting in an annual $29 billion l...
Compact Objects and Gravitational Radiation
September 14, 2015 saw the dawn of gravitational wave astronomy with the detection of gravitational waves from the merger of a binary black hole. Since then, three other detections...
CAREER: Algorithms, Incentives, and Policy for Data Privacy
Privacy concerns are becoming a major obstacle to using data, and it is often unclear how current regulations should translate into technology. As differential privacy and other pr...
Understanding the protein composition and dynamics of the nuclear envelope in plants
The nuclear envelope (NE) isolates and organizes the genome. It selectively accumulates proteins that carry out vital cellular functions and represents the hallmark of eukaryotic c...
I-Corps: Low-cost photothermal nanosensors for quantitative biomarker detection using a thermometer
The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of new, low-cost, portable biomarker detection methods in response to the growing market of biomo...
CAREER: Nucleic Acid-Peptide-Mineral Hybrid Assemblies and Nano-Devices
NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY Life at various scales can be viewed as a dynamic self-assembling system. Living organisms have developed their unique strategies to build soft and hard ti...
Doctoral Dissertation: Does Speaking Improve Comprehension and Processing of a Foreign Language? A Computer-Assisted Language Learning and ERP Study
Adult language learners, including college students, find learning new languages to be difficult, yet many are remarkably successful. While previous work has focused on cognitive a...
Collaborative Research: CIBR: Leaping the Specimen Digitization Gap: Connecting Novel Tools, Machine Learning and Public Participation to Label Digitization Efforts
National efforts to digitize natural history collections have transformed previously siloed, unstandardized resources into a networked, openly available information nexus usable to...
SCC-CIVIC-PG Track A:CaReDeX: Enabling Disaster Resilience in Aging Communities via a Secure Data Exchange
Disasters over the years have shown that a disproportionate number of older adults suffer fatalities and injuries during extreme events. A large number of older adults live in age-...
Collaborative Research: CIBR: Leaping the Specimen Digitization Gap: Connecting Novel Tools, Machine Learning and Public Participation to Label Digitization Efforts
National efforts to digitize natural history collections have transformed previously siloed, unstandardized resources into a networked, openly available information nexus usable to...
Collaborative Research: ATD: Robust, Accurate and Efficient Graph-Structured RNN for Spatio-Temporal Forecasting and Anomaly Detection
The project aims to develop robust, efficient, and transferrable deep learning algorithms for prediction and anomaly detection in human spatio-temporal dynamics. This will be a fun...
Doctoral Dissertation Research: Code-switching in Three Groups of Bilinguals
Language provides people with a unique means to conceptualize the world and interact with their fellow members in a society. How is this process affected when individuals speak mor...
Exploring the role of boundary layer microbial remineralization in flavivirus-host dynamics
Marine diseases pose considerable risks to invertebrates, such as sea cucumbers, in the face of changing ocean conditions. While many invertebrate diseases are driven by pathogens,...
High-fidelity dating of deep-time records: Integrating Earth's dynamical ellipticity and tidal dissipation into astrochronology
One way to determine the ages of seafloor sediments and sedimentary rocks is by using a “calendar” based on astronomical calculations. This time scale makes use of the fact that pr...
SCC-CIVIC-PG Track A: Piloting On-Demand Multimodal Transit in Atlanta
In the United States, car ownership remains the best predictor of upwards social mobility. Those without a car are grievously disadvantaged in accessing jobs, health care, and dece...
CAREER: A paired experimental-computational approach to elucidate stress responses in early-branching eukaryotes
Cells sense their surroundings and use this information to adapt to stressful conditions. These responses can determine whether a cell dies or survives to change according to the n...
CAREER: Multiscale Modeling of a Virtual Kidney during the Onset and Progression of Diabetic Kidney Disease
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a serious complication of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes and is the leading cause of kidney failure. Yet, it is still not clear how the many under...
SaTC: CORE: Small: Studying Problematic Content in the Web Advertising Ecosystem
Online ads pervade the daily lives of all web users and underpin the current financial model of the web. In addition to well-designed advertisements for legitimate products and ser...
