Multiplatform Standards and Guidelines Publishing at NIST

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Kathryn Miller
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is a nonregulatory agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce. One of the agency's responsibilities is to develop industry standards and guidelines, which are published as NIST Technical Series publications

Baseline Pruning-Based Approach to Trojan Detection in Neural Networks

May 7, 2021
Author(s)
Peter Bajcsy, Michael Majurski
This paper addresses the problem of detecting trojans in neural networks (NNs) by analyzing how NN accuracy responds to systematic pruning. This study leverages the NN models generated for the TrojAI challenges. Our pruning-based approach (1) detects any

A Controlled Vocabulary and Metadata Schema for Materials Science Data Discovery

Raymond L. Plante, Chandler Becker, Andrea M. Medina-Smith, Kevin G. Brady, Alden A. Dima, Benjamin J. Long, Laura M. Bartolo, Robert Hanisch
As a result of a number of national initiatives, we are seeing rapid growth in the data important to materials science that are available over the web. Consequently, it is becoming increasingly difficult for researchers to learn what data are available and

TREC-COVID: Constructing a Pandemic Information Retrieval Test Collection

February 19, 2021
Author(s)
Ellen Voorhees, Ian Soboroff, Tasmeer Alam, William Hersh, Kirk Roberts, Dina Demner-Fushman, Kyle Lo, Lucy L. Wang, Steven Bedrick
TREC-COVID is a community evaluation designed to build a test collection that captures the information needs of biomedical researchers using the scientific literature during a pandemic. One of the key characteristics of pandemic search is the accelerated

Human-Supervised Semi-Autonomous Mobile Manipulators for Safely and Efficiently Executing Machine Tending Tasks

October 16, 2020
Author(s)
Sarah Al-Hussaini, Shantanu Thakar, Hyojeong Kim, Pradeep Rajendran, Brual C. Shah, Alec Kanyuck, Jeremy Marvel, Satyandra K. Gupta
Mobile manipulators can be used for machine tending and material handling tasks in small volume manufacturing applications. These applications usually have semi-structured work environment. The use of a fully autonomous mobile manipulator for such

TREC-COVID: Rationale and Structure of an Information Retrieval Shared Task for COVID-19

July 8, 2020
Author(s)
Ellen Voorhees, Ian Soboroff, Tasmeer Alam, Kirk Roberts, William Hersh, Dina Demner-Fushman, Steven Bedrick, Kyle Lo, Lucy L. Wang
TREC-COVID is an information retrieval (IR) shared task initiated to support clinicians and clinical research during the COVID-19 pandemic. IR for pandemics breaks many normal assumptions, which can be seen by examining nine important basic IR research
