About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded a definitive contract to Toyon Research Corporation for the FIDDLER project—Neural Reflectance Fields for Radio Frequencies (NERF-RF)—on December 12, 2022, with a ceiling value of $4.58 million under cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing.
The originating solicitation sought proposals to develop algorithms capable of rapidly generating synthetic aperture radar imagery of maritime targets using sparse training data. The 15-month base period focused on generating target images under different conditions, with evaluation based on the ability to recreate original datasets when trained on limited data, as measured by normalized probability of identification scores. Offerors conducted initial work in unclassified facilities using limited SAR imagery and metadata provided by the government for model training and evaluation.
Place of performance is Goleta, California. The contract is scheduled for ultimate completion on June 30, 2026. No set-aside was used. Toyon Research Corporation is a small business.
