An algorithm which uses affinity propagation to automate the selection and generation of highly representative training images.

SD card configuration for use in neutron-rich environments.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is an attractive material for high-temperature heat exchangers and nuclear reactor systems. To date, technological advancements have been stifled by manufacturing constraints, which are quite limiting for ceramics such as SiC.

A novel method for purifying relatively large batches of uranium.

Balanced detection is a method of light detection in which classical noise common to two detectors is removed by subtracting the individual detector signals from one another.

Improved sorting techniques are provided that perform a parallel sort using a ranged, partitioned key-value store in a high-performance computing (HPC) environment. A plurality of input data files comprising unsorted key-value data in a partitioned key-value store are sorted.

The world community is presently witnessing an unfortunate insidious use of nerve agent organophosphates (OPs) as chemical weapons. Highly efficient antidotes to protect population against those anti acetylcholinesterase (AChE) poisons are not available.

We developed a method to prepare LCNs. The unique process allows for the formation of homogeneous network structure with fast reaction kinetics, low polymerization shrinkage, and high tolerance to oxygen inhibition.

CRISPR/Cas gene editing technologies have captured national attention in recent years because of their profound implications in biosecurity. With exquisite precision, this technology can find and replace specific genomic sequences, providing a means to edit any DNA sequence.

Parallel storage systems are provided with a burst buffer appliance for storage of a partitioned key-value store across a plurality of storage tiers.
