Structure guided image restoration : a deep learning approach
(2019-05-01)
Image restoration aims at recovery of degraded images and estimating the original. Over the past few years, computer vision research has been dominated by deep learning techniques in part due to advances in computing ...
Computational studies of semiflexible polymer translocation in nanopore systems
(2019-08-01)
The translocation of double stranded DNA (dsDNA) through nanopore systems is a field with rich physics and many promising technological applications. Double stranded DNA is not fully flexible, and the translocation dynamics ...
Autism Serious Game Framework (ASGF) for Developing Games for Children with Autism
(2019-12-01)
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by impaired social communication and interaction, and by restricted, repetitive interests and behaviours. The mean clinical age of diagnosis is still four to five years, ...
A new method of modelling tuneable lasers with functional composition
(2019-07-01)
A new nonlinear model is proposed for tuneable lasers. Using the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equation as a starting point, expressions for the transformations undergone by the pulse are derived for each of the five ...
An unmanned aerial vehicle-based assessment method for quantifying computer vision models
(2019-04-01)
Computer vision is a growing field in computer science. Since the advancement of Machine learning, Computer vision solutions have been trending. As a result of the growing number of solutions and performance increases in ...
Perpetually playing physics
(2019-08-01)
Here we discuss ideas of reinforcement learning and the importance of various aspects of it. We show how reinforcement learning methods based on genetic algorithms can be used to reproduce thermodynamic cycles without prior ...
Spring Stepper: a makerspace controller for seated hands-free locomotion in virtual reality
(2019-12-01)
Natural locomotion is crucial for improving presence in a virtual environment (VE), while also reducing simulator sickness. While research in various areas of virtual reality (VR), such as head-mounted displays (HMD) and ...
Supporting student success with machine learning and visual analytics
(2019-08-01)
Post secondary institutions have a wealth of student data at their disposal. This data has recently been used to explore a problem that has been prevalent in the education domain for decades. Student retention is a complex ...
The development of an anesthesia crisis scenario builder for virtual reality training
(2019-08-01)
Anesthesiologists are trained in the field of anesthesia and preoperative medicine; they are required to develop anesthetic plans and monitor patients vitals. Currently, anesthesia trainees are taught using traditional ...
Impact of carbon micro/mesoporosity on the adsorption behavior of small molecules
(2019-08-01)
Adsorption studies on carbon play a key role in fields such as environmental remediation, purification, and catalysis. Because of the inherently high surface area, low cost, and inertness of activated carbons, these materials ...
