Application-specific transfer learning over edge networks
(2021-11-01)
Transfer learning uses a profound labeled set of data from the source domain to deal with a similar problem for the target domain. Transfer learning provides accurate decision- making when insufficient data samples are ...
Design and development of a blockchain-based consent management system
(2021-08-01)
Data management is defined as obtaining, processing, safeguarding, and storing information about an organization to aid in making better business decisions for the firm. With the proliferation of smart devices, the amount ...
Enhancement of lateral stability for a multi-wheeled combat vehicle using various control strategies
(2021-08-01)
This thesis investigates various active chassis control strategies for multi-wheeled combat vehicle to enhance its lateral stability at limit handling. The proposed control strategies are Active All- Wheel Steering (AWS), ...
Development of a model to investigate the sustainability of Ontario’s future electricity supply through a dual life cycle lens
(2021-10-01)
Since the turn of the century, greenhouse gas emissions and their climate related impacts have been studied with increased vigor. A tool that has gained popularity in supporting the reduction of emissions is life cycle ...
Robotic and haptic assistance for kidney access during percutaneous nephrolithotomy
(2021-08-01)
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a minimally invasive procedure for removing kidney stones. Gaining kidney access is the most challenging task in this procedure and the cause of many complications. This thesis presents ...
Early detection of cyber-physical attacks in electric vehicles fast charging stations using machine learning
(2021-08-01)
In smart grids, the concept of “vehicle-to-grid” allows the electric vehicles to export power to the grid to support the electric utilities in the power distribution system’s operation. The implementation of such a concept ...
Application of traveling salesman problem in generating a collision-free tool path in drilling
(2021-04-01)
In machining, the tool path is generated according to the workpiece geometry and arrangement of holes. Majority of Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) software offer a set of predefined strategies to choose from. These tool ...
Linear regression model for continuous non-invasive blood pressure estimation for an ICU setting
(2021-11-01)
Continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring in critically ill patients is crucially important for clinicians. The gold standard intra-arterial method is complicated and contraindicated. Current pulse transit time (PTT)-based ...
Semi-direct visual SLAM for stereo cameras: system design and validation
(2021-11-01)
Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) requires an autonomous vehicle in an unknown environment to learn about the environment, generates a map and localize itself at the same time. To solve this problem, various ...
Tunable compact microwave multiplexers based on substrate integrated waveguide
(2021-05-01)
Microwave multiplexers and diplexers are widely used in communication systems. This thesis presents a compact low-profile hybrid-coupled filter module (HCFM) implemented using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW). Compared ...
