Key research thrusts include subsampling and resampling techniques for large datasets, robust...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, CFDA 47.070, provides $389,385.00 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct research on facilitating audience interaction and engagement in real-time social media platforms. The project aims to develop tools and methods to help community leaders manage participant behavior, identify biases, and provide transparency to participants. The research...
- This $300,000 Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083), will create a gamified behavioral experiment to study how security policies affect compliance and collaboration decisions among U.S. researchers. The project aims to overcome reluctance in the research community to participate in "research on research security" by using a gamified approach to uncover base rates for security compliance behaviors and...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program provides $596,797 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027. The project aims to develop automated frameworks for interpreting neural networks and designing robust, human-understandable neural network models. Key objectives include: (1) automating interpretations that describe the internal functioning of deep...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $720,641 Project Grant under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) to the University of San Diego (USD) to develop an open-source data infrastructure platform called "RESDataNexus". This platform will provide emerging research institutions (ERIs) with the ability to systematically track research outputs, R&D expenditures, and grant activities, empowering data-driven decision-making and strengthening research...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $1,182,881 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) under the NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070). The grant supports the development of new methods to ensure that machine learning models assigned to decisions such as lending and hiring can be changed through individual actions, protecting the right to access these services. The project will create techniques for (1) detecting...
- This federal Project Grant award of $104,250.00, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, supports collaborative research to address the growing threat of AI-generated abuse against individuals. The research team is conducting technical and content analysis to characterize the ecosystem of tools used to create abuse material, leveraging psychological principles to deter attackers, and engaging in technical forecasting to...
This federal Project Grant award of $300,000.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) supports research conducted by the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to develop new tools and techniques for detecting potential misappropriation or foreign interference with U.S. federally funded research. Specifically, the project constructs a knowledge graph connecting data on grants, publications, patents, and researcher affiliations to identify "leakage paths" where research may have moved outside authorized channels. The system uses a combination of human-defined templates and machine learning techniques to score and explain these patterns, and simulated scenarios to improve the models. The final output will be an open-source toolkit including a searchable API, interactive interface, and reproducible simulation environment to help universities and research agencies protect the integrity of open, collaborative science. This award reflects NSF's mission to enhance national research capacity and technological innovation, with the project running from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2027.
