A frequency selective engineered structure (FSES) using fragmented design procedures is presented that operates in the THz frequency range. The design improves upon a previous split ring resonator (SRR) design that leverages Membrane Projection Lithography (MPL) to achieve the desired feature size. Simulation results of the FSES are presented and compared to the SRR in regards to bandwidth and absorption properties across frequency; wideband performance is predicted for the 3D FSES.

Ring Oscillator Physical Unclonable Function (ROPUF) has been the preferred choice for embedding hardware-oriented security and trust in FPGA based systems. Parameters such as uniformity, uniqueness, bit-aliasing, and reliability have been used to measure the performance of PUFs. In this paper, we present an XOR-Inverter based ROPUF which has improved uniformity, uniqueness, and bit-aliasing when compared with other designs. From the results, it is observed that the proposed 3 stage XOR-Inverter based design can produce Challenge Response Pairs (CRPs) with 47.64% uniqueness (50% ideal value), 49.8% uniformity (50% ideal value), and 50% bit-aliasing (50% ideal value) when compared to the best results from other similar ROPUF structures which yield uniqueness, uniformity, and bit-aliasing of 45%–47%, 50.53% and 47–50.5%, respectively. The reliability of our proposed PUF is better than most existing designs; however, it is fractionally less than that of the design presented in [6].

Modern ultrasonic flowmeters provide routine diagnostic information that may be used to infer their health. This inference task is modeled as a classification problem and studied experimentally using a publicly available dataset. A few classifiers, such as Bayesian Networks, provide good accuracy and also suggest relationships among the diagnostic variables.

We present a hybrid agent framework to produce high-level autonomous behavior for unmanned vehicles based on formal specification. High level autonomous behavior is attractive due to minimum level of central control and support for verifiable behavior results such as safety assurance. The proposed framework use linear temporal logic (LTL) to express high level agent behavior to control search, tracking, and survival activities, which are executed at a rule-based reasoning engine. The low level search and team tracking behaviors are implemented by a policy network trained with Reinforcement Learning (RL). The behavior controller is evaluated in a simulated envrionment with single-agent and multi-agent search and tracking scenarios.

The Frequency Diverse Array (FDA) antenna provides range - angle - time dependent beampattern, potentially generating highly directional beams with high gain that may be steered directly and continuously to the desired position. Therefore, a ground receiving antenna system based on the Frequency Diverse Array antenna is presented for tracking and communicating with Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite. This is required to minimize complexity and cost of the ground station. Furthermore,, to meet the system figure of merit (G/T) requirements; the radiation characteristics, the gain requirements, the array size, the minimum number of elements and their distribution for several FDA array antenna architectures are calculated and analyzed.

We have previously created successful neural networks for malware detection. Here, we examine a network with salience to extract parts of an input deemed important. We show that the blocks we extract are what is important to the network, are unique to their class, and show clear similarities when clustered.

This paper presents a vision of planners, particularly for UAVs, from both an architectural and algorithmic perspective. It reviews key approaches and develops a taxonomy of planning methods. This paper explores various differences and similarities. A technical baseline is developed throughout this process to highlight current research interests, demand signals, and possible gaps in the research. Descriptions of the fundamental issues and limitations of present methods are also included. A common taxonomy will help researchers to coordinate efforts to build more general and powerful planning algorithms.

Evolvable hardware is attractive as a design strategy to hardware engineers, but suffers due to its lack of scalability to larger hardware systems. This work examines how hardware designers can make use of evolvable hardware to improve the security of their systems, and to create hardware systems that are better resistant to reverse engineering.
