About this IDV

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) awarded an Other Transaction indefinite delivery vehicle (IDV) contract to Embedded Intelligence Research LLC, a for-profit partnership focused on artificial intelligence and embedded systems research. The $3.058 million IDV, awarded in February 2020, tasks the company with developing techniques to guarantee the robustness of AI systems against deception attempts, including research into reverse engineering solutions to detect adversarial attacks using compressed sensing signatures.

This pre-commercial research effort aims to harden AI models against manipulated inputs and intentional performance degradation. The IDV was awarded outside of traditional procurement procedures given the emphasis on prototyping and innovative AI security solutions. Embedded Intelligence Research LLC has received multiple DARPA awards totaling over $3.3 million to support advanced algorithm development and signal processing capabilities, as well as preliminary work on AI deception techniques and training methodologies for limited data environments.
