  • High-Dimensional Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback

    Creator:
    Curran, William
    Abstract:
    State-of-the-art personal robots need to perform complex manipulation tasks to be viable in complex scenarios. However, many of these robots, like the PR2, use manipulators with high degrees of freedom. High degrees of freedom are desirable from a functionality standpoint, but make the learning task more difficult by adding a...

  • Benchmarking and Programming Practices for the Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessor

    Creator:
    Leslie, William
    Abstract:
    The Intel Xeon Phi is a relative newcomer to the scientific computing scene. In the recent years, GPUs have been used extensively for mathematical simulations. The Xeon Phi is Intel’s response to the use of these cards. Like the GPU, it is highly parallelizable but can be programmed like a...

  • From multitarget tracking to event recognition in videos

    Creator:
    Brendel, William
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses two fundamental problems in computer vision—namely, multitarget tracking and event recognition in videos. These problems are challenging because uncertainty may arise from a host of sources, including motion blur, occlusions, and dynamic cluttered backgrounds. We show that these challenges can be successfully addressed by using a multiscale,...

  • Distributed OpenCL : a platform for distributed, heterogeneous computing for domain scientists

    Creator:
    Dillon, William H.
    Abstract:
    It is possible to purchase, for as little as $10,000, a cluster of computers with the capability to rival the supercomputers of only a few years ago. Now, users that have little to no experience developing distributed applications or managing a cluster are in a position to do so. To...

  • Switched Capacitor Circuit Techniques for High Performance CMOS Analog Circuits

    Creator:
    Kareppagoudr, Manjunath
    Abstract:
    Switched capacitor (SC) circuits are the main building blocks in many structures such as filters, data converters, sampling circuits and sampled-data amplifiers. The key challenge is to design such circuits which are the prime components of any IoT system with low power consumption without compromising on the performance. In this...

  • Comparison and impact of substrate noise due to clocked and clockless circuitry

    Creator:
    Le, Jim K.
    Abstract:
    Delay insensitive asynchronous circuitry provides significant advantages with respect to substrate noise due to localized switching. The differences between the substrate noise from NULL Convention Logic (NCL) and traditional Clocked Boolean Logic (CBL) are described and analyzed based on measured results. A test chip fabricated in the TSMC 0.25 um...

  • Exploring IMU Attitude and Position Estimation for Improved Location in Indoor Environments

    Creator:
    Zhang, Shengkai
    Abstract:
    Wearable sensors with an inertial measurement unit (IMU) are popular for indoor positioning and activity pattern detection. The IMUs can be connected to a wireless transmission module, allowing users to monitor and process motion-related parameters remotely. Because of the complexity and uncertainty of signals in indoor environments, a radio frequency...

  • Development and Implementation of JetNet : A Decentralized Wireless Sensing Protocol

    Creator:
    Goins, Justin B.
    Abstract:
    Modern sensor network applications are often implemented wirelessly in order to lessen installation costs and reduce deployment times. Unfortunately, these wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes must often rely on batteries or energy harvesting techniques in order to sustain their operation and supply the power needed to maintain communication within the...

  • Routerless Network-on-chip

    Creator:
    Alazemi, Fawaz
    Abstract:
    Traditional bus-based interconnects are simple and easy to implement, but the scalability is greatly limited. While router-based networks-on-chip (NoCs) offer superior scalability, they also incur significant power and area overhead due to complex router structures. In this thesis, a new class of on-chip networks, referred to as Routerless (RL) NoCs,...
