About this award

Sri International was awarded a $1.2 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to perform work under the Guaranteeing AI Robustness against Deception (GARD) program. The contract involves research and development services to develop theoretical foundations, algorithms, and evaluation frameworks to enable machine learning systems to be robust against adversary deception across multiple sensor modalities including still images, audio, and video. Major subcontractors include the University of Guelph, which will perform fundamental research on adversarial robustness of deep learning using rate-distortion analysis and mutual information, and Oregon State University, which will conduct research on attack-agnostic adversarial robustness of ensemble deep neural networks generated by HyperGAN. Work will be performed in Arlington, Virginia through April 2022.
