REU Site: TaMaLe - Testing and Machine Learning for Context-Driven Systems: Research Experience for Undergraduates

Data management plan for the grant, "REU Site: TaMaLe - Testing and Machine Learning for Context-Driven Systems: Research Experience for Undergraduates." TaMaLe (Testing and Machine Learning for Context-Driven Systems), a renewal Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site at University of North Texas, engages 10 undergraduate students for 10 weeks with problems in the context-driven system domain. The students explore research problems to improve the reliability and security of context-driven systems. Context-driven systems, such as mobile apps, face constant streams of input from both users and context changes in their environments. Users interact with apps through touch and speech interfaces. These systems also respond to context events that occur in their environments such as changes to network connection, battery level, screen orientation, and more. The combined explosion of possible user events and context event sequences pose new challenges that require cost effective testing solutions. Students and mentors in this REU program work in small teams to develop and empirically evaluate new software testing techniques for context-driven systems using strategies such as reinforcement learning and combinatorial-based techniques.

New approach for identification pHFO networks to predict epilleptogenesis (open access)

New approach for identification pHFO networks to predict epilleptogenesis

Data management plan for the grant, "New approach for identification pHFO networks to predict epilleptogenesis." About 40% of epilepsy patients fail to control seizures after treatment, and currently there is no treatment that can prevent epilepsy. The goal of this study is to perform multi-scale electrophysiological investigations combine with advanced computational algorithm development to understand the characteristics of the pathological brain networks during the latent period of epilepsy. The findings of this project will lead to a better understanding of the network mechanisms of epileptogenesis and suggest novel approaches to prevent the process of epileptogenesis.

In-Situ Monitoring for Quality Assurance and Machine Learning in Direct-Write Additive Manufacturing of 5G RF Electronic Ceramics

Data management plan for the grant, "In-Situ Monitoring for Quality Assurance and Machine Learning in Direct-Write Additive Manufacturing of 5G RF Electronic Ceramics." The principal near-term objective of the PI is to use in-situ monitoring to define the processing rules that determine the microstructure, macrostructure, and high-frequency dielectric response of electronic ceramic materials for advanced RF “grown” by laser-assisted direct-write AM. In-situ measurements will be correlated and validated with ex-situ characterization, and these data will iteratively guide synthesis and processing optimization. In parallel, the experimental measurements will be used as inputs for the physics-based process modeling. Predictions from the experimentally validated models will in turn: 1) guide synthesis and processing optimization and, 2) train and constrain ML. Thus, quality assurance is achieved.

RINGS: Mobility-driven Spectrum-Agile Resilient mmWave Communication Links for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Traffic Management in the Sky

Data management plan for the grant "RINGS: Mobility-driven Spectrum-Agile Resilient mmWave Communication Links for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Traffic Management in the Sky." As the unmanned aviation industry moves towards Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) services, air taxis and air ambulances are expected to become a reality in near future. Handling such a high volume of unmanned air traffic requires innovative solutions for enhanced situational awareness in the airspace. The US Federal Aviation Federal Aviation Administration envisions air tracks specifically reserved for AAM vehicles at altitudes ranging from 500 ft to 2000 ft. Air tracks cross one another at intersections and vehicles may need to share the airspace with other manned and unmanned aerial vehicles. This requires coordination among the vehicles especially during close encounters. Such a coordination requires highly reliable communication links which serve as a substitute for traffic signals on the roads. This proposal addresses this key knowledge gap by investigating strategies for establishing reliable and robust Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication links to support AAM services. This project investigates spectrum-agile millimeter wave-based tunable beamforming strategies needed for establishing reliable and robust V2V communications links to support autonomous flight operations in air corridors along with the supporting radio frequency and mixed signal …

Optic-nerve-head (ONH) Chips for Glaucomatous Neurodegeneration (open access)

Optic-nerve-head (ONH) Chips for Glaucomatous Neurodegeneration

Data management plan for the grant, "Optic-nerve-head (ONH) Chips for Glaucomatous Neurodegeneration." The most prominent causative risk factor of glaucoma, the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, is elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), which could deform the optic nerve head (ONH) and cause glaucomatous neurodegeneration. However, current glaucoma therapies that focus on lowering IOP do not stop vision loss effectively, and thus there is a pressing need to understand the mechanisms underlying glaucoma pathogenesis. In this project, we will develop a biomimetic 3-D ONH-on-a-chip system that closely mimics the key anatomical and pathophysiological characteristics of the native ONH to study astrocytic mechanisms of glaucoma pathogenesis, a missing link to develop efficacious therapies.
