# Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity **Domain:** Austin Research / Institutions **Doc Type:** Research entity **Source basis:** Supplied research cluster with linked references; see the [[wiki/Austin Research Evidence Map|evidence map]] for verification scope. The **Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA)** is the [[wiki/Office of the Director of National Intelligence|ODNI]] research organization supporting advanced technologies for intelligence problems. The supporting history traces its establishment in the post-9/11 intelligence-integration environment. In this cluster, Odin addresses biometric authenticity; MOSAIC addresses multimodal human-state sensing; the [[wiki/Functional Map of the World|Functional Map of the World]] challenge addresses imagery interpretation. These programs address different stages of machine perception and evaluation. The individual programs have their own scopes, performers, and evidence. IARPA’s role is an advanced-research interface, while operational transition and use must be established separately for each capability. ## Connected entries [[wiki/Office of the Director of National Intelligence|Office of the Director of National Intelligence]] · [[wiki/IARPA Odin|IARPA Odin]] · [[wiki/IARPA MOSAIC|IARPA MOSAIC]] · [[wiki/Functional Map of the World|Functional Map of the World]] · [[wiki/IC ITE|IC ITE]] · [[wiki/HID Global|HID Global]] · [[wiki/Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory|Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory]] · [[wiki/National Institute of Standards and Technology|National Institute of Standards and Technology]] · [[wiki/SRI International|SRI International]] · [[wiki/USC Information Sciences Institute|USC Information Sciences Institute]] ## Sources and corpus context - [[research/The Austin Executable Loop|The Austin Executable Loop — master document]] - [[research/ODIN - Observe, Detect, Identify, Neutralize|ODIN - Observe, Detect, Identify, Neutralize]] - [IARPA Odin Program](https://www.iarpa.gov/research-programs/odin) - [IARPA Launches Odin Program to Harden Biometric Technology Against Attacks](https://www.iarpa.gov/newsroom/article/iarpa-launches-odin-program-to-harden-biometric-technology-against-attacks) **Cluster:** [[wiki/Austin Executable Loop|Austin Executable Loop]] · [[wiki/Austin Research Evidence Map|Austin Research Evidence Map]]
