ENABLING ACCESSIBL ITY Our goal is to enable Automated Threat Recognition (ATR)

development by gathering and labelling data, providing testing

services for algorithms, and demonstrating algorithms in an open

architecture framework for TSA.

Sandia National Laboratories

has been working closely with TSA to create a path

that will allow machine learning experts to develop algorithms

enhancing aviation security. We have focused on creating

shareable data and capabilities to reduce the burden of starting

development. The capabilities described in this pamphlet

highlight efforts to directly enable machine learning, testing, and

evaluation.

As part of this effort, Sandia and its partners have developed a

defined interface-the Open Platform Software Library (OPSL) –

which allows for coding to a single environment, streamlining

deployment across multiple devices.

Data provided through the ATR Program currently requires US

Citizenship as well as being approved to handle Sensitive

Security Information by the TSA (“suitability”). Partnership with

Sandia via contract or memorandum of understanding (MOU)

qualify partners to be vetted for suitability by TSA.

ATR program to support machine learning advancements and travel security T S A F U N D E D E F F O R T T O C R E A T E A N A N N O T A T E D , E N R I C H E D D A T A S E T , A N D T O O L I N G

The OTAP ATR program provides two distinct datasets ready for machine learning. Each is designed

to provide a more complete picture of the threat space. All images provided are compliant to the DICOS

standard. The ATR program also provides scoring tools, to provide insight into how performant an ATR

is as well as documentation on integration into the wider OTAP platform.

Two datasets to reduce false alarms and enhance detection SOC Datase t The SOC dataset contains stream of commerce

images that are collected directly at airports

around the United States. Datasets are

enhanced by providing passenger non-PII data

and associating them to their resulting CT

images. Basic bounding-box annotations are

provided for SOC categories that were derived in

consultation with ATR partners.

PBOD Datase t The Passenger Baggage Object Database

(PBOD) dataset contains scans and metadata

produced in TSA and DHS/S&T labs with real

threats. These scans each have a detailed

bag inventory as well as voxel-by-voxel

annotations of the item of interest. The

number of CT images provided in this dataset

is limited since the collection effort is manually

intensive to maintain safety precautions when

handling threat materials.

DATA AVAILABIL ITY Data can be requested by reaching out to any of

the Sandia National Laboratories personnel listed

on the back. A web interface will be available

soon.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION ATR scoring tools will assist in providing

performance details. Information regarding

runtime requirements and operating environments

will be provided.

INFRASTRUCTURE INTEGRATION Eventual integration into the OTAP platform via the

OPSL SDK will allow for streamlined access

directly into airport checkpoints. OPSL

documentation and interfaces provide a consistent

environment to develop against, allowing for cross

platform solutions.
