Virtual Surveyor based Object Extraction from Airborne LiDAR data
(2017-08-11)
Topographic feature detection of land cover from LiDAR data is important in various fields - city planning, disaster response and prevention, soil conservation, infrastructure or forestry. In recent years, feature ...
A supervised approach for training Gaussian Mixture Model classifiers
(2017-08-22)
A new method for training Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) classifiers is presented. First, an objective function is defined in terms of the number of clusters, K, per class, the mean vectors, the inverse covariance matrices ...
EARLY DETECTION OF METASTATIC CANCER USING COMPUTATIONAL ANALYSIS
(2017-10-06)
Metastasis is the leading cause of cancer related deaths. Early detection of cancer cells can enable early disease diagnosis and stage specific therapeutics. Metastatic cancer cells have abnormal expression of certain ...
ADAPTIVE OPTIMAL TRACKING OF UNCERTAIN DISCRETE-TIME SYSTEMS
(2017-08-01)
Optimal feedback control design has been responsible for much of the successful performance of engineered systems in aerospace, manufacturing, industrial processes, vehicles, ships, robotics, and elsewhere. Although most ...
Multi-source UAV-based object classification using CNN’s and Data acquisition system for Robotic Skin
(2017-08-16)
Autonomous robots are intelligent systems capable of performing tasks in the world by themselves, without explicit human control. Examples range from autonomous helicopters to Roomba, the robot vacuum cleaner to robotic ...
COMMUNICATION-COGNIZANT CONTROL OF MICROGRIDS
(2017-08-10)
The increased integration of power electronic devices, advanced software-based controllers, and communication networks has transformed the microgrid from a simple physical system into a cyber-physical system. In this work, ...
ON FEATURE EXTRACTION FROM LARGE SCALE LINEAR LIDAR DATA
(2017-08-08)
Airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) can generate co-registered elevation and intensity map over large terrain. The co-registered 3D map and intensity information can be used efficiently for different feature ...
Sparse Array for Wireless Sensor Networks and Wireless Communications
(2017-05-11)
Underwater target detection and recognition has been widely used nowadays. In this dissertation, we show that the 3-D nested-array system can provide O(N^2) degree of freedom by using only N physical sensors when the second ...
Formal Verification of DC Distribution Networks
(2017-08-10)
Power electronics-intensive DC distribution networks are emerging as popular alternative to their AC counterparts being more efficient and reliable power delivery platforms. With the recent evolution of control methodology ...
Structural and electrical characterization of single crystalline SrZrxTi₁-xO₃ thin films on Germanium
(2017-06-01)
The epitaxial growth of crystalline oxides on semiconductors provides a pathway to introduce new functionalities to semiconductor devices. Key to coupling crystalline oxides to semiconductors electrically, to realize ...
