On the optimal measurement of conversion gain in the presence of dark noise
Aaron Hendrickson, David P. Haefner, Bradley L. Preece
Working from a model of Gaussian pixel noise, we present and unify over twenty-five years of developments in the statistical analysis of the photon transfer conversion gain measure…
Fermi-LAT Gamma-ray Detection of the Recurrent Nova RS Ophiuchi during its 2021 Outburst
C. C. Cheung, T. J. Johnson, P. Jean +15
We report the Fermi-LAT gamma-ray detection of the 2021 outburst of the symbiotic recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi. In this system, unlike classical novae from cataclysmic binaries, the…
Discovery, Timing, and Multiwavelength Observations of the Black Widow Millisecond Pulsar PSR J1555-2908
Paul S. Ray, Lars Nieder, Colin J. Clark +21
We report the discovery of PSR J1555-2908, a 1.79 ms radio and gamma-ray pulsar in a 5.6 hr binary system with a minimum companion mass of 0.052 . This fast and energetic…
LiDAR dataset distillation within bayesian active learning framework: Understanding the effect of data augmentation
Ngoc Phuong Anh Duong, Alexandre Almin, Léo Lemarié +1
Autonomous driving (AD) datasets have progressively grown in size in the past few years to enable better deep representation learning. Active learning (AL) has re-gained attention…
Adaptive Transmit Waveform Design
David A. Hague
Recent research efforts in the Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) community have focused on developing sonar systems that adapt to their acoustic environment, referred to as "cognitive"…
A Novel AQC Factoring Algorithm
Matthew B. Crawford
Due to recent technological advances, actual quantum devices are being constructed and used to perform computations. As a result, many classical problems are being restated so as t…
Advanced Load Shedding for Integrated Power and Energy Systems
Bang L. H. Nguyen, Tuyen Vu, Colin Ogilvie +7
This paper introduces an advanced load shedding algorithm to improve the operability performance of a medium voltage direct current (MVDC) integrated shipboard power and energy sys…

Incorporating Deception into CyberBattleSim for Autonomous Defense
Erich Walter, Kimberly Ferguson-Walter, Ahmad Ridley
Deceptive elements, including honeypots and decoys, were incorporated into the Microsoft CyberBattleSim experimentation and research platform. The defensive capabilities of the dec…
Imaging Sources in the Third Realization of the International Celestial Reference Frame
Lucas R. Hunt, Megan C. Johnson, Phillip J. Cigan +2
The third iteration of the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF3) is made up of 4536 quasars observed at S/X bands using Very Long baseline Interferometry (VLBI). These so…
Consistency of the Maximal Information Coefficient Estimator
John Lazarsfeld, Aaron Johnson
The Maximal Information Coefficient (MIC) of Reshef et al. (Science, 2011) is a statistic for measuring dependence between variable pairs in large datasets. In this note, we prove…
