Abstract:

 

Recent innovations in analytic computations can be used to power innovations
in the homeland security mission space. The HSARPA Data Analytics Engine is
helping homeland security organizations translate these innovations into
capabilities for high priority science and technology investments (known as
APEX programs) including: Next Generation First Responder, Border Situation
Awareness, Real Time Bio-threat Awareness, and Screening at Speed. Data
analytics is a key component of these programs and the Data Analytics Engine
offers both subject matter expertise and a laboratory for characterizing
data sets and computational analytics technologies. The HSARPA DAE also
works directly with DHS components and stakeholders in order to understand
business processes, operational data sets, and technologies that can
significantly advance component missions in a variety of areas. In addition,
the DAE collaborates with Universities, Government programs and Industry to
shape solutions for homeland security application. The presentation will
provide an overview of data analytics activities in the DAE, discuss recent
results and highlight specific areas of interest for potential
collaborations.
