For this case, we had the privilege of working with a Research Scientist in the field of Computer and Electrical Engineering as our client. More specifically, his research has been focused on designing new algorithms to improve the organization and retrieval of images, sparse representation, localization of mobile devices, and surveillance. His advanced methodologies have allowed fellow scientists to enhance the accuracy of localization systems and the precision of surveillance equipment, all of which directly improve the United States’ ability to protect its citizens from internal and external attacks. His work has culminated in 5 peer-reviewed scholarly manuscripts published in several leading journals, 11 peer-reviewed conference papers that were presented at international conferences, and 2 patents. At the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 180 times by independent and leading researchers around the world, exemplifying the major significance of his work. The importance of his work was validated by an independent recommender, who stated, “[Client] has shown the ability time and time again to develop advanced algorithmic solutions to some of the most important questions related to advanced imaging technologies. His work has been published in several of the most important journals in our field. He has also consistently been the first to come up with working solutions to issues within our field.” We aimed to prove that our client’s major contributions to the United States’ national security and safety of citizens would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. With the extensive and thorough documentation that we provided, we were met with success when his NIWpetition was approved in 5 months and 9 days.
