Robust Training of Spiking Neural Networks via Generative AI
TS-073717 —
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) promise ultra-low-power, low-latency AI for edge and neuromorphic computing, but their adoption is constrained by fundamental training challenges. SNN performance is highly sensitive to how training data are collected (e.g., lighting, sensor settings, noise), leading…

Data‑Driven Powertrain Recommender Systems (PRS) for Optimized Truck Fleets
TS-073692 —
Fleet operators face increasing pressure to reduce operating costs and emissions while maintaining performance and reliability. Choosing the “right” truck (diesel, alternative fuel, or battery electric) for a specific duty cycle remains largely heuristic, conservative, and error‑prone. As a …

Tunable Ferrite Nanoparticles for Optimized Heating and Magnetic Performance
TS-073587 —
Magnetic nanoparticles are widely used in applications such as magnetic hyperthermia, catalysis, sensing, and data storage, yet their performance is often limited by poor control over key magnetic properties. Existing materials typically rely on size or shape control alone, which provides limited …

Long-Baseline Ephemeris Error Correction for LEO-Based PNT
TS-073339 —
Positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) resilience is increasingly critical as GNSS vulnerabilities become more apparent in contested, denied, or degraded environments. Low Earth orbit (LEO) communication satellites offer a promising alternative PNT source, but their utility is limited by poorly…

A Novel Machine Learning Approach for Classification at the Network Edge
TS-073225 —
In today's world, we are increasingly using low-cost devices with limited resources (often referred to as "edge devices") which are supported by connected high-performance servers. However, these edge devices often can't handle complex tasks such as classifying data. To make this possible, we need…

Cognitive Opportunistic Navigation Using Unknown Reference Signals
TS-073173 —
Modern navigation systems increasingly rely on signals of opportunity such as 5G and LEO satellite downlinks, but these signals often lack public reference‑signal specifications, may be dynamic or on‑demand, and can suffer from severe Doppler effects. Conventional receivers cannot reliably acq…

DPRA: Dynamic Probabilistic Risk Assessment for Cyber Security Risk Analysis
TS-073146 —
As industrial systems become increasingly digital and interconnected, traditional risk assessment tools struggle to capture how cyber threats interact with physical processes in real time. Existing methods typically assess hardware failures or isolated cyber events, but they cannot model how attac…
