Improving nonlinear dimensionality reduction algorithms for hyperspectral data
(2010)
Dimensionality reduction is a key step in hyperspectral image processing due to the large amount of data. Linear and nonlinear approaches have been proposed. The most important parameters on the majority of nonlinear ...
A block-compressive sensing algorithm for hyperspectral data processing and acquisition: A comparative classification performance study
(2016)
Current deployments of remote sensing hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology usually require expensive setup costs, specialized aircraft and associated infrastructure, in addition to producing amounts of data that have a ...
Evaluation of flywheel and battery systems for power smoothing of a photovoltaic plant into power grid
(2018-05)
The integration of renewable energy generation presents a great challenge in the energy management of an electrical system. The rapid variability in the production of energy from renewable resources, specifically solar, ...
Design and simulations of an integrated 9.41 ghz 24 channels phased array synchronization by phase locked loop for dual polarized doppler solid state radar for casa student test bed
(2012)
The design and simulations of an integrated 9.41 GHz- 24 channel passed array synchronization by phase looked loop for dual polarized Doppler solid-state radar for the CASA student Test Bed is presented in this thesis. The ...
Off the grid x-band radar node development for weather applications
(2010)
The Student Led Test Bed (STB) is part of the NSF Engineering Research Center CASA and is currently focused on developing low infrastructure radar networks to fill lower atmosphere gaps not covered by current technology. ...
Methods for scalable levels of parallelism in radix-2 ffts for fpga synthesis
(2014)
The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is the main block in many communication systems and signal processing applications, as it allows the fast computation of the discrete Fouier transform (DFT). The DFT, in turn, is used to ...
Computerized detection of semantic equivalence among sentences in natural language
(2011)
In natural language, different sentences can express the same meaning, or a sentence can be modified without altering its meaning. This is called “semantic equivalence”. Semantic equivalence can be resolved humans, but it ...
Object recognition using spherical harmonics shape descriptor in hyperspectral imagery
(2011)
Object recognition in hyperspectral and multispectral imagery has been studied in the last decade. The different approaches to recognition over hyperspectral images are based on spectral behavior, ignoring the shape behavior. ...
A real-time manufacturing information exchange application between programmable logic controllers over a fault tolerant network
(2015)
This thesis presents the development of a test method for diagnosing the presence of embedded systems failures caused by physical defects in the printed circuit board and electronic components. Specifically, the proposed ...
Development and analysis of the low torque generator for high efficiency applications
(2016-07)
This effort presents a novel design for a generator, named the low torque generator, as a device introduced for new applications. The main differences between the conventional generators and the low torque generator is the ...
