SPARSE DECENTRALIZED PRINCIPAL COMPONENTS ANALYSIS FOR DIMENSIONALITY REDUCTION
(2016-05-10)
Principal components analysis (PCA) is a data compression technology relying on dimensionality reduction. In a wireless sensor network, the acquired data may be spatially scattered and include many zero variables, for ...
A SWITCHED CAPACITOR BASED TRANSIMPEDANCE AMPLIFIER FOR DETECTION OF HAB THROUGH OPTICAL SENSING
(2016-05-10)
In the recent years, there has been a substantial increase in the manifestation of harmful algal blooms. A certain species called cyanobacteria that is commonly present in freshwater bodies are found to release a class of ...
EXPLOITING HIGHER-ORDER STATISTICS IN RADAR DATA FOR SCATTERING CENTER ISOLATION
(2016-05-10)
Embedded in each observation of a RADAR system is an amalgam of scattered signals. An important function of RADAR signal processing is to resolve or separate this mixture of target signals.
Imaging using RADAR data is a ...
Wireless Power Transfer for Medical and Industrial Applications
(2016-05-10)
My primary research focuses on wireless power transfer technology utilizing in two different areas: medical and industrial applications.
In the medical applications, my research focuses on design and optimization methods ...
SILICON NITRIDE DEVICES FOR NONLINEAR AND QUANTUM OPTICS APPLICATIONS
(2016-05-16)
The technology of fabricating photonic devices on silicon wafers using the well established CMOS process methodology has been under active investigation for several years. In particular, microring resonators have been shown ...
Optimization of Heterogeneous Wireless Networks with Massive MIMO
(2016-05-13)
In the next generation wireless communication system, multi-layers of Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets) are required to provide high efficiency bandwidth usage and high speed data throughput. Users’ distribution and their ...
SECOND ORDER ALGORITHM FOR SPARSELY CONNECTED NEURAL NETWORKS
(2016-08-17)
A systematic two-step batch approach for constructing a sparse neural network is presented. Unlike other sparse neural networks, the proposed paradigm uses orthogonal least squares (OLS) to train the network. OLS based ...
SMARTPHONE-BASED CROWD SOURCING OF BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN CONFLICT DATA FOR TRANSPORTATION SAFETY ASSESSMENT
(2016-08-15)
This thesis presents the idea of mobile application development that aims at data collection for transportation safety assessment using cloud-based database. At present, transportation safety assessment relies only on data ...
Leak detector system for Positive Airway Pressure machines
(2016-08-16)
The project aims to develop a system to indicate leaks occurring in a Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) machine which sends a passage of air to the patients suffering from sleep apnea, through a hose and a nose mask. The ...
ACTIVE FLYBACK BASED BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH PROPORTIONAL BALANCING FOR USE IN AN ELECTRIC RACE CAR
(2016-08-08)
Battery management systems are responsible for many tasks, most important of which is maintaining balance amongst the cells in a series string to prevent excess aging and unsafe operating conditions \cite{WhyBMS1}\cite{WhyBMS2}. ...
