IDB Loader

SAND2024-08428O The IDB Loader is a database designed to hold gamma spectra. IDB is a web-accessible database of reference gamma spectra for measuring uranium (U) and plutonium (Pu) isotopic composition. The database, developed by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), provides access to well-characterized groups of gamma spectra curated by international experts in gamma spectroscopy. It was created to promote sustainability and maintenance of software used to determine the isotopic abundances of U and Pu. The IDB Loader works by uploading one set of spectral data into an existing IDB. The Data Loader package includes documentation describing the IDB's table, the format of the spectral data, and a description of the loader program. The IDB is currently hosted by the IAEA at: https://nds.iaea.org/idb Sandia National Laboratories is a multimission laboratory managed and operated by National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell International Inc., for the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-NA0003525.

XPCA - R Implementation

Principal component analysis (PCA) is arguably the most popular tool in multivariate exploratory data analysis. We consider the question of how to handle heterogeneous variables that include continuous, binary, and ordinal. In the probabilistic interpretation of low-rank PCA, the data has a normal multivariate distribution and, therefore, normal marginal distributions for each column. If some marginals are continuous but not normal, the semiparametric copula-based principal component analysis (COCA) method is an alternative to PCA that combines a Gaussian copula with nonparametric marginals. If some marginals are discrete or semi-continuous, we present a new extended PCA (XPCA) method that also uses a Gaussian copula and nonparametric marginals and accounts for discrete variables in the likelihood calculation by integrating over appropriate intervals. Like PCA, the factors produced by XPCA can be used to find latent structure in data, build predictive models, and perform dimensionality reduction. We implement the new model, XPCA, and its ancestors PCA and COCA in both R and Python. This software provides implementations of XPCA, COCA, and probabilistic PCA in both R and Python. XPCA is written in arXiv report https://arxiv.org/abs/1808.07510.

Python Robust Phase Estimation (PyRPE)

Robust Phase Estimation (RPE) is a quantum algorithm to determine the relative phases of eigenstates of a unitary operator. This code implements the classical portion of the RPE algorithm, useful both in simulation (e.g., Sandia's pyGSTi or IBM's Qiskit simulators) and on actual quantum hardware (e.g., IBM's Qiskit Quantum Experience). It additionally implements improvements in these dependent software packages, for both required core function of the RPE and improved usability.

PARAFAC_T1

This is a method of performing trilinear analysis on large data sets using a modification of the PARAFAC-ALS algorithm. It iteratively decomposes the data matrix into a core matrix and three loading matrices based on the Tucker1 model. The algorithm is particularly useful for data sets that are too large to upload into a computer?s main memory. While the performance advantage in utilizing our algorithm is dependent on the number of data elements and dimensions of the data array, we have seen a significant performance improvement over operating PARAFAC-ALS on the full data set.

IIA Incremental Interval Assignment

IIA is a solver for optimizing integer matrix problems Ax=b. It was developed to decide the number of mesh edges on model curves (intervals) for quad and hex meshing. Meshing schemes impose constraints ranging from the mild requirement (i.e. that any quad mesh must have an even number of edges on its boundary) to structured mapped patches where opposite sides of a rectangle must have exactly equal numbers of edges.

QuEST v. 1.6

QuESt is an open source, Python-based application suite for energy storage simulation and analysis. The initial release will include an application for energy storage valuation, an analysis where the maximum revenue of a hypothetical energy storage device is estimated using historical energy market data. This is done by determining the sequence of state of charge management actions that optimize revenue generation, assuming perfect foresight of the historical data. The initial release will also include a utility to obtain historical data directly from supported market operating entities for use in analysis. More applications will be added as they are developed.

Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit Defect Arbitrary Waveform Generator (QICKDAWG) v.0

SAND2024-08598O The Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit Defect Arbitrary Waveform Generator (QICKDAWG) characterizes nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond and other defects. It does this by using a radio frequency system-on-a-chip (RFSoC) field programmable gate array (FPGA). QICKDAWG synthesizes microwave pulses from the RFSoC to change the spin state of the defects. The software also allows for laser control using the RFSoC, which optically pumps defects. Ultimately, QICKDAWG supports the implementation of RFSoC FPGAs in defect characterization. This replaces the slow, expensive, traditional hardware, thus lowering the cost and time for defect characterization.

OpenCSP v.1.0

SAND2024-08987O OpenCSP analyzes and improves the performance of optical mirrors that reflect sunlight and concentrate it onto a receiver. The algorithms in this library analyze the flow of light from an original source—such as the sun—reflecting off one or more mirrors, and onto a receiver, optical screen, or camera. OpenCSP also analyzes optical systems using other techniques, such as shape or slope comparison. The software calculates aggregate properties of the optical system, such as its efficiency, manufacturing error, pointing control error, expected performance, and other useful parameters. OpenCSP also includes high-level tools, such as Open SOFAST, a program that obtains high-resolution measurement of CSP mirrors, full heliostats, and other CSP collectors. OpenCSP supports producing meaningful output data to help CSP designers and field operators improve the performance of their systems. OpenCSP also includes classes and functions that support these calculations, including input utilities, analysis output libraries, geometric constraint analysis for drone flight planning, and more.
