The project will create computational and data-enabled solutions that reduce design time and cost across systems involving interactions across...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Computing and Communication Foundations awarded Cornell University $413,823 on October 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to conduct collaborative research on generative AI's impact on online communities. The project studies how generative AI adoption affects content creation, community participation, governance practices, content evaluation, and outcomes across multiple widely-used online...
- The National Science Foundation Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure awarded Purdue University $299,897 on December 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop, implement, and evaluate interdisciplinary educational modules integrating artificial intelligence literacy, applied machine learning skills, and responsible use of generative AI tools for undergraduate students. The project pairs computer science and social science students in...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Computing and Communication Foundations awarded The Pennsylvania State University $292,743 on August 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop artificial intelligence systems that understand physical scenes through structural abstraction rather than dense pixel-by-pixel reconstruction. The project advances AI's capacity for common-sense physical reasoning by extracting semantically rich...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $300,000 Early-concept Grant for Exploratory Research (EAGER) under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to The Pennsylvania State University, doing business as Penn State, to conduct research on expanding the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in manufacturing. The project focuses on developing deep clustering and generative modeling techniques to identify geometric similarities between new part designs and existing designs to improve...
- The Pennsylvania State University received a $100,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Computer and Network Systems on January 1, 2022 to support research capacity building in artificial intelligence-based anomaly detection in cybersecurity through December 31, 2023. Under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering federal grant program (CFDA #47.070), Penn State will collaborate with other institutions to develop research expertise focused on...
The National Science Foundation Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure awarded The Pennsylvania State University $299,770 on September 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to investigate and train digital archive communities in the uses of generative AI and the National AI Research Resource (NAIRR). The project connects AI and computing scholars with digital archives and cultural practice researchers to conduct mutual training and co-create AI-based digital systems. Researchers will explore current applications of generative AI in digital archives, develop new system designs and early prototypes tailored to archival needs, and train archival and cultural practice experts on generative AI systems and NAIRR resources. The work emphasizes a multi-level framework for ethical engineering of AI systems and examines how AI systems can be designed to interact appropriately with specific cultural and archival practices. Performance occurs in State College, Pennsylvania, with a period of performance from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2028.
