  • Optimization of interactive live free viewpoint multiview video streaming bandwidth

    Creator:
    Kramer, Richard A.
    Abstract:
    There are generally two types of multiview video:(1) 3D Multiview Video (“3D MVV” also called “2D plus delta” or “stereo” multi-view video): 3D MVV is widely deployed in cinemas and in the TV industry. 3D MVV typically entails capturing video of an object using two cameras with differing view angles...

  • A motor-generator and supercapacitor based system for microgrid frequency stabilization

    Creator:
    Crispo, Richard F.
    Abstract:
    This research introduces an energy storage system to deliver microgrid frequency response. A doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) and a squirrel cage induction machine (SCIM) are coupled together as a motor/generator set to deliver an immediate inertial response to a change of frequency, and an inverter and supercapacitors deliver short term...

  • Active Contour Models

    Creator:
    Lee, Taein
    Abstract:
    Active contour models have been widely applied to image segmentation and analysis. It has been successfully used in contour detection for object recognition, computer vision, computer graphics, and biomedical image processing such as X-ray, MRI and Ultrasound images. The energy-minimizing active contour models or snakes were developed by Kass, Witkin...

  • A Distributed Scheme for Accelerating and Scaling PSPNet

    Creator:
    Krishna, Ajay
    Abstract:
    Advances in deep learning based image processing have led to their adoption for a wide range of applications, and in tow with these developments is a dramatic increase in the availability of high quality datasets. With this comes the need to accelerate and scale deep learning applications in order to...

  • Modeling architecture from photographs : an implementation of the Façade system

    Creator:
    Heath, Zach
    Abstract:
    The Façade photometric modeling system, developed by Paul E Debevec at Berkley, is capable of transforming a sparse set of camera images of an architectural scene into a photorealistic 3D model. Users define a rough model out of primitive building blocks and mark where a portion of the edges of...

  • UCT for tactical assault battles in real-time strategy games

    Creator:
    Balla, Radha-Krishna
    Abstract:
    We consider the problem of tactical assault planning in real-time strategy games where a team of friendly agents must launch an assault on an enemy. This problem offers many challenges including a highly dynamic and uncertain environment, multiple agents, durative actions, numeric attributes, and different optimization objectives. While the dynamics...

  • Coupled Compressive Sensing : Sequential Reinforcement Approach

    Creator:
    De Silva, Shashini A.
    Abstract:
    We consider multiple Compressive Sensing (CS) problems wherein the supports of signal vectors of CS problems are restricted to satisfy a collection of joint logical constraints, which we refer to as coupling constraints. We consider a case where the coupling constraints are encoded in a graph and present a sequential...

  • Layered rendering model for human teeth

    Creator:
    Shetty, Sudarshanram
    Abstract:
    This study introduces a layered model for rendering human teeth. Human teeth exhibit complex light interaction due to their layered structure. While the lighting responses of teeth have been studied in the dental industry for the production of realistic looking dentures, to our knowledge this is the first study of...

  • Inorganic thin-film solar cells

    Creator:
    Spies, Jack Alexander
    Abstract:
    The primary objective of this thesis is to explore new absorber and p-type window layer materials for thin-film solar cell applications. A new thin-film electron beam deposition system has been installed, is now operational, and has been used to deposit several types of solar cell absorber layers. Material investigations include...

  • Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) Process Development of Nb-doped TiO₂ as a Transparent Conducting Oxide (TCO) and ALD of HfO₂/Nb₂O₅ Bilayers as Insulating Barriers for Metal/Insulator/Insulator/Metal (MIIM) Diodes

    Creator:
    Lin, Shijia
    Abstract:
    Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), primarily indium doped tin oxide, have been widely used in numerous fields since decades ago, such as solar cells, displays, OLEDs and ‘smart windows’ etc. Owing to the scarcity of indium, there is a great demand for new alternative materials. Metal/insulator/metal (MIM) diodes are a critical...
