Echopype: Interoperability and Scalable Ocean Sonar Data Analysis
Partners: Wu-Jung Lee and Emilio Mayorga SSEC Engineers: Don Setiawan and Valentina Staneva Research Goals and Domain Scientists commonly use active sonar systems to collect data about mid-trophic level animals, such as zooplankton and small fish that play an important role in marine ecosystems. Echosounders, or fish-finders, are high-frequency sonar systems that emit pulses of…

NoisePy: Ambient Field Seismology
Partners: Marine Denolle, Yiyu Ni, and Kuan-Fu Feng SSEC Engineers: Carlos Garcia Jurado Suarez and Ishika Khandelwal Research Goals and Domain The Earth’s ambient field contains a great deal of information about its structure. Changes in this structure occur at a vast range of temporal and spatial scales. We can record these changes thanks to…

Wet AI: Collaborative Neurobiology
Partners: David Haussler, Matt Elliot, David Parks, and Lon Blauvelt SSEC Engineers: Cordero Core and Don Setiawan Research Goals and Domain Cerebral organoids are synthetic tissues derived from induced or natural stem cells within a laboratory setting. Once they are differentiated, these structures offer an avenue for researchers and students to probe and stimulate neural…

Neglected Diagnostics: Democratizing Genetic Testing
Partners: Hal Holmes, Misa Winters, and Cifeng Fang SSEC Engineers: Aniket Fadia, Carlos Garcia Jurado Suarez, and Rashmika Reddy Research Goals and Domain Genetic testing is routinely relied upon to detect the illegal trafficking of wildlife, the introduction of invasive species and pathogens, as well as monitor disease spread or outbreaks that can devastate the…

Investigating Structure of Social Science Research Datasets for Better ML Evaluation
Project Lead: Bernease Herman, eScience Data Scientist Specialized machine learning architectures, such as deep learning, typically rely on inductive biases and other data-specific correlational structure information to produce more effective models. Similarly, the design and evaluation of differentially private synthesizers depends heavily on the correlational structure of the datasets most commonly used in the field. We…
