Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.

How we got this date

NSF lists this award's end date as 30 June 2028.
NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
So the final report is due by 28 October 2028.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence models typically reduce to optimization problems: find the best solution according to a problem-specific metric. Sometimes, the nature of the problems means that the standard calculus-based tools cannot be applied. This setting is known as gradient-free optimization, and is particularly relevant for small businesses, academic research groups, and public-sector organizations that lack…
