A bilateral intercomparison of photometric units between NIST, USA and PTB, Germany has been conducted to update the knowledge of the relationship between the photometric units disseminated in each country. The luminous intensity unit (cd) and the luminous flux unit (lm) maintained at both laboratories are compared by circulating transfer standard lamps. Also, the photometric responsivity sv is...

NIST researchers advanced the measurement and automation capabilities of quantum-based dc and ac programmable Josephson voltage standards (PJVS) such that the NIST PJVS is now capable of providing ac voltage measurements through differential sampling at voltages up to 10 V and frequencies up to 400 kHz. New automation software and hardware were implemented. Measurements of leakage resistance we...

We propose a randomness test based on the T-complexity of a sequence, which can be calculated using a parsing algorithm called Tdecomposition. Recently, the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) randomness test based on LZ-complexity using the LZ78 incremental parsing was officially excluded from the NIST test suite in NIST SP 800-22. This is caused from the problem that the distribution of P-values for random seque...

This paper investigates advanced channel compensation techniques for the purpose of improving i-vector speaker verification performance in the presence of high intersession variability using the NIST 2008 and 2010 SRE corpora. The performance of four channel compensation techniques: (a) weighted maximum margin criterion (WMMC), (b) source-normalized WMMC (SN-WMMC), (c) weighted linear discrimin...

In the late 1970s, macromolecular crystallography at NIST began with collaboration between NIST and NIH to establish a single-crystal neutron diffractometer. This instrument was constructed and employed to solve a number of crystal structures: bovine ribonuclease A, bovine-ribonuclease-uridine vanadate complex, and porcine insulin. In the mid 1980s a Biomolecular Structure Group was created est...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard Ultrasonic Source (SUS) is a system comprising a transducer capable of output power levels up to 1 W at multiple frequencies between 1 MHz and 30 MHz, and an electrical impedance-matching network that allows the system to be driven by a conventional 50 Ω rf (radio-frequency) source. It is designed to allow interlaboratory replic...

We propose a general approach for differentially private synthetic data generation, that consists of three steps: (1) select collection low-dimensional marginals, (2) measure those marginals with noise addition mechanism, and (3) generate preserves the measured well. Central to this is Private-PGM, post-processing method used estimate high-dimensional distribution from noisy measurements its ma...

As part of its role in providing radiometric standards in support of industry, the National Institute of Standards and Technology has been active in advancing extreme ultraviolet dosimetry on various fronts. Recently, we undertook a major effort in accurately measuring the sensitivity of three extreme ultraviolet photoresists. It has been common practice to use photoresists as a transfer “stand...
