Parsing genetic models
(2022-01-01)
Applications of computer vision have seen great success recently, yet there are few approaches dealing with visual illustrations. We propose a collection of computer vision applications for parsing genetic models. Genetic ...
A structured approach to assessing the suitability of clinical gold standards for use in computational decision support algorithm development
(2022-01-01)
Advanced decision support diagnostic algorithm use in medicine is being hampered by the problem that high quality evidence is not available to support adoption. The strongest evidence for a diagnostic tool is obtained from ...
Design and development of a novel DC/DC bidirectional converter with dual solar/PV-based snow removal and EV charging functionality
(2022-02-01)
Different factors affect solar photovoltaic (PV) systems by decreasing input energy and reducing the conversion efficiency of the system. One of these factors is the effect of snow cover on PV panels, a subject lacking ...
Clustering analysis of lock contention fault types using run-time performance metrics for java intrinsic locks
(2022-02-01)
Locks are essential in java-based multi-threaded applications as this mechanism provides a proper solution to synchronizing shared resources. However, improper management of locks and threads can lead to contention; as a ...
Detecting road boundaries and drivable regions in challenging weather conditions
(2022-02-01)
Road detection is a core component of self-driving vehicle perception, where it covers detecting road boundaries and drivable road regions. It can also help human drivers to drive safely in lower visibility. The majority ...
Development of conformal reconfigurable metamaterial-based antennas
(2022-01-01)
Antennas are vital components of any wireless communication device. There has been a wide demand for novel flexible and reconfigurable wireless devices as a result of the rising user applications. This thesis presents the ...
Modeling and experimental investigation of renewable energy and ammonia-based systems for carbon capturing and useful outputs
(2022-04-01)
This thesis work focuses on developing ammonia-based carbon capturing systems that produce useful chemical outputs to offset the energy penalty typically imposed by implementing a carbon capture retrofitting to a power ...
Modeling and analysis of off-road tire cornering characteristics
(2022-05-01)
Cornering performance characteristics of wheeled vehicles substantially rely on the forces/moments generated from interactions between pneumatic tires and terrains. Accurate models are thus required to predict these ...
A POMDP framework for antenna selection and user scheduling in multi-user massive MIMO systems
(2022-04-01)
We use a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) framework to design a resource allocation policy for downlink transmit beamforming at a multi-antenna BS that is equipped with a massive number of antennas and ...
Design and development of a traction motor emulator using a three-phase bidirectional buck-boost AC-DC converter
(2022-04-01)
An industrial drive testing, with a ‘real-machine’ can pave way, for some serious issues to test-bench, motor, and the operator. A slight disturbance in control logic amid testing, can damage the physical machine or drive. ...
