Texas Tech University has secured a five-year grant totaling $12.25 million in NSF funding for the REPACSS project, which will design and develop advanced computing systems that integrate multiple energy sources while addressing automation, remote data control and scientific workflow management. This five-year effort positions Texas Tech as a national leader in large-scale computing, distinct from commercial data centers by focusing on diverse academic and scientific applications.
NIMS has been developing chemical sensors as a key component of the artificial olfaction technology (olfactory sensors), with the aim of putting this technology into practical use. In this study, explainable AI (XAI) was used to reveal how chemical sensors discriminate among various odorant molecules. The findings may help guide the selection of receptor materials for developing high-performance chemical sensors capable of detecting odorant molecules. The achievement is expected not only to improve the performance of artificial olfaction but also to advance understanding of human olfactory mechanisms. This research was published online in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces on September 9, 2025.
