TS-075512 — Organizations invest substantial resources in employee training and professional development, yet many struggle to demonstrate a clear connection between training expenditures, workforce performance, and career advancement. Human resources teams often lack effective tools to identify specific skil…

TS-075450 — Safety-critical systems in industries such as energy, aerospace, industrial automation, and advanced manufacturing are becoming increasingly complex, integrating hardware, software, controls, sensors, and communication networks. Existing fault analysis methods are often domain-specific and require…

TS-075184 — Problem Synthetic lethality (SL) is defined as a gene combination effect (GCE) of two genes where loss-of-function of both genes, rather than one, causes cell death. While carrying strong therapeutic potential in the treatment of cancer, SL interactions are context specific and sparse, thereby limi…

TS-075183 — Problem Current eligibility biomarkers for Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) poorly predict patient’s response. Drug clearance, both at baseline and over time, is a stronger predictor of ICI effectiveness, however the current non-linear mixed effects modeling (NLME) approach for estimating …

TS-075168 — Problem Metastasis is the primary driver of cancer-related deaths, yet accurately predicting its onset is a major clinical challenge. Current diagnostic tools often fail to detect occult metastatic cells and metastatic precursor cells, resulting in either overdiagnosis, with unnecessary treatments,…

TS-074578 — The Need As AI systems are rapidly deployed across healthcare, education, and high-stakes decision-making, organizations lack rigorous tools to evaluate how humans actually interact with, trust, and respond to AI in real-world conditions. Opportunity Overview Researchers at the Ohio State Univ…

TS-073818 — Autonomous vehicles and advanced driver-assistance systems require extensive testing across rare, hazardous, and edge-case scenarios to ensure safety and regulatory readiness. Existing approaches (pure simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, proving grounds, or public-road testing) each suffer from trad…

TS-073768 — Electrified and hybrid vehicle powertrains are increasingly complex, integrating mechanical, electrical, thermal, and emissions subsystems with both continuous and discrete decision variables. Existing energy management and co‑optimization approaches typically rely on simplified models, sequenti…

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 …

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…
