NSF Initiative: Layers Before Reality

NSF/DARPA/NASA Digital Libraries Initiative: A Program Manager's Perspective

Resolving Multiple Occluded Layers in Augmented Reality

A useful function of augmented reality (AR) systems is their ability to visualize occluded infrastructure directly in a user’s view of the environment. This is especially important for our application context, which utilizes mobile AR for navigation and other operations in an urban environment. A key problem in the AR field is how to best depict occluded objects in such a way that the viewer ca...

Turbulent boundary layers: reality and myth

Nsf.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) facilitate largescale identification of genomic variants that are associated with complex traits. However, susceptibility loci identified by GWAS so far generally account for a limited fraction of the genotypic variation in patient populations. Predictive models based on identified loci also have modest success in risk assessment and therefore are of limit...
