  • Some contributions to asymmetric error control codes

    Creator:
    Elmougy, Samir
    Abstract:
    In some practical systems, most of the errors are of 1 → 0 type and 0 → 1 errors occur very rarely. In this thesis, first, the capacity of the asymmetric channel is derived. The capacity of the binary symmetric channel (BSC) and the Z-channel can be derived from this...

  • Redesigning the Structure and Access Paths of Databases for Effective and Efficient Query Processing

    Creator:
    Ghadakchi, Vahid
    Abstract:
    Many database users are not familiar with formal query languages, the concept of schema, or the exact content of their database. Thus, it is challenging for these users to formulate their information needs over semi-structured and structured databases. To address this problem, researchers have proposed usable query interfaces over which...

  • Approximation Schemes in Planar Graphs

    Creator:
    Zheng, Baigong
    Abstract:
    There are growing interests in designing polynomial-time approximation schemes (PTAS) for optimization problems in planar graphs. Many NP-hard problems are shown to admit PTAS in planar graphs in the last decade, including Steiner tree, Steiner forest, two- edge-connected subgraphs and so on. We follow this research line and study several...

  • Low-cost deposition methods for transparent thin-film transistors

    Creator:
    Norris, Benjamin J.
    Abstract:
    The objective of this dissertation is to introduce low-cost processing methods for the fabrication of ZnO transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs). A novel method for depositing ZnO body layers via spin-coating of a zinc nitrate-based spin solution is presented. The processing conditions of spin-coated ZnO are optimized to produce continuous and...

  • Advancing Power Grid Computing: Analysis and Synthesis of Wide-Area Data, Distributed Real-Time Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulations, and Machine Learning for Event Detection

    Creator:
    Hagan, Travis
    Abstract:
    Global Positioning Systems have allowed for precise timing of power system measurements over wide areas. This newly found capability has the potential to provide much greater insight into the operation of the power system and its response to contingencies, but few analytical techniques currently exist that provide enough robustness and...

  • A probabilistic model for anomaly detection in remote sensor streams

    Creator:
    Dereszynski, Ethan W.
    Abstract:
    Remote sensors are becoming the standard for observing and recording ecological data in the field. Such sensors can record data at fine temporal resolutions, and they can operate under extreme conditions prohibitive to human access. Unfortunately, sensor data streams exhibit many kinds of errors ranging from corrupt communications to partial...

  • Fabrication and characterization of p-type CuO / n-type ZnO heterostructure gas sensors prepared by sol-gel processing techniques

    Creator:
    Ravichandran, Ram
    Abstract:
    Increased interest in the field of sensor technology stems from the availability of an inexpensive and robust sensor to detect and quantify the presence of a specific gas. Bulk p-CuO/n-ZnO heterocontact based gas sensors have been shown to exhibit the necessary sensitivity and selectivity characteristics, however, low interfacial CuO/ZnO contact...

  • Machine Learning Techniques to Model Species Interactions and Distributions Under Imperfect Detection

    Creator:
    Seo, Eugene
    Abstract:
    Ecological domains seeking to understand the environment and the behavior of species have received little attention in machine learning (ML), despite the fact that environmental changes have a significant impact on humans as well as ecosystems. Some ecological problems can be formulated similarly to other common ML applications, but there...

  • Investigation of ultra-thin In-Ga-Zn-O thin-film transistors

    Creator:
    Chiang, Tsung-Han
    Abstract:
    The objective of the work reported herein is to explore the impact of decreasing channel thickness on radio-frequency (RF) sputtered amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (a-IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs) electrical performance through the evaluation of drain current versus gate voltage (I[subscript D] − V[subscript G]) transfer curves. For a fixed set of...

  • Multi-Objective Power Electronics System Design and Optimization, A Machine Learning Approach

    Creator:
    Jackson, Derek
    Abstract:
    The integration of power electronics within the energy and transportation sectors enlists a demand for the rapid development of energy-efficient electrical systems. While model-based design and physics-based simulations are effective ways to handle the multi-disciplinary and multi-objective (MO) design of these complex systems, design exploration remains a time-consuming procedure. A...
