I/UCRC Phase II: I/UCRC for Identification Technology Research

身份识别技术研究中心（CITeR）作为一个产学研合作研究中心，其目标是在身份识别系统的开发中发挥推动作用。拥有可证明和可验证的身份对于个人在现代社会中发挥作用是必要的。你的身份让你有工作，有银行账户，开车。身份也使社会自由和安全，因为危险的个人可以被排除在公众之外，例如通过将恐怖分子嫌疑人列入禁飞名单和逮捕已知的罪犯。特别是，CITeR研究、教育和技术转让的重点是确认身份以及开发保护隐私的技术。组成CITeR的大学包括西弗吉尼亚大学、亚利桑那大学、布法罗大学和克拉克森大学。Clarkson的CITeR附属机构（成员）既包括政府机构，也包括公共和私营公司。此外，CITeR对识别技术的关注通过满足依赖该技术的其他政府机构的研究需求来影响“改善国家安全”。CITeR的整体研究重点是人类分析、身份科学、生物识别分析和政策/隐私；克拉克森的具体重点是漏洞/对策，新颖和行为生物识别技术，以及先进的计算。克拉克森大学作为领导机构增加了补充中心的测量和信号处理能力，以识别人类和人类的意图。在进行研究时，CITeR的教师积极地让本科生参与到他们的研究中来，让他们早在大一开始就参与到积极的角色中来。CITeR积极推广K-12；为中小学生举办STEM拓展活动。克拉克森专门致力于识别和解决识别技术领域下一代专业人士的教育需求，并为这些领域的高等教育提供广泛而积极的影响。

The goal of the Center for Identification Technology Research (CITeR) as an Industry/University Cooperative Research Center is to serve an enabling role in the development of identity systems. Having a provable and verifiable identity is necessary for an individual to function in modern society. Your identity is what allows you to have a job, maintain a bank account, and drive a car. Identity is also what allows society to be free and safe, as dangerous individuals can be excluded from the public, for instance through placing suspected terrorists on no-flight lists and by capturing known criminals. In particular, CITeR research, education, and technology transfer is focused on confirming identity as well as development of privacy-enabling technology. The universities that make up CITeR include West Virginia University, University of Arizona, The University at Buffalo and Clarkson University. CITeR affiliates (members) at Clarkson include both government agencies as well as public and private companies. In addition, CITeR's focus on identification technology impacts "improved national security" by meeting the research needs of other government agencies that depend on this technology.CITeR's overall research focus is human analytics, identity science, biometric analysis, and policy/privacy; Clarkson's specific focus is vulnerabilities/countermeasures, novel and behavioral biometrics, and advanced computing. Clarkson University as the lead institution adds complementary Center capabilities for measurements and signal processing to identity humans and human intent. In conducting research, CITeR faculty actively engages undergraduate students in their research, involving them in active roles beginning as early as their freshman year. CITeR is active in outreach to K-12; hosting STEM outreach activities in for elementary and high school students. Clarkson specifically has worked to identify and address educational needs of next-generation professionals in the identification technology arena, and is providing broad-reaching and positive impact to higher education in these areas.
