Evaluation of different structured models for target detection in hyperspectral imagery
(2010)
Target detection is an essential component in defense, security and medical applications of hyperspectral imagery. Structured and unstructured models are used to model variability of spectral signatures for the design of ...
A variable dimension gauss-newton method for ill- conditioned parameter estimation with application to a synchronous generator
(2005)
This thesis presents a variable dimension Gauss-Newton (VDGN) parameter estimation algorithm that can be used for fault detection, and diagnosis of a synchronous generator. The algorithm is derived as an extension of the ...
Hierarchy control of hybrid power system
(2007)
In this thesis, we present a Hierarchical control of Hybrid Power Systems (HPS) that consist of a Wind Turbine, Photovoltaic Panels, connection to the AC utility, a Battery Bank, and a zonal model of a load. The hierarchical ...
A study of equation-free methods for simulation of power electronics systems
(2010)
Power electronics is a field that has a high demand today and it also has a great importance in our technology world. Therefore, it is necessary to develop modeling and simulation tools that allow the development of system ...
An algorithm for retrieval of optical properties, bathymetry and benthic cover in shallow waters from hyperspectral imagery
(2005)
Hyperspectral imagery has been shown to be a powerful technology for quantitative monitoring of shallow water coastal environments. In coastal remote sensing, to estimate sea bottom properties from hyperspectral imagery, ...
Electro-thermal modeling of a power electronic module
(2004)
An electrothermal model for a power electronic module is presented. The model is developed by representing the internal thermal behavior of the module as a RC network using an electrical circuit equivalent for the thermal ...
A reconfiguration algorithm for a dc zonal electric distribution system based on graph-theory methods
(2009)
In many applications, self contained Electric Power Distribution Systems (EPDS) require high survivability under fault conditions. A fault produces an immediate change in the system topology resulting in potential loss of ...
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 ...
Design of a reconfiguration controller for a dc zonal distribution system
(2005)
The use of DC Zonal System (DCZEDS) is evaluated as a potential simulation testbed for self-reconfigurable control research in electric power distribution systems. The DCZEDS is a SIMULINKTM implementation of a Ship DC ...
Soft classification of hyperspectral imagery based on linear mixing model and supervised fuzzy logic algorithms
(2008)
Hyperspectral Imagery (HSI) is an important technology used in remote sensing and plays an important role in environmental remote sensing because it provides valuable spectral information of the objects in the scene. Using ...
