  • Delay Performance Evaluation of the IEC 61850 Standard in Power Transmission Substations

    Creator:
    Safdar, Salman
    Abstract:
    Substations are a crucial element at the transmission and distribution level of electric power systems. The primary substation equipment (power transformers and high voltage switching equipment) is used to transfer and transform electric energy by stepping up or down the voltage in transmission substations. Secondary equipment (such as IEDs, Intelligent...

  • Data-Driven Approaches For Decoding Volitional Movement Intent From Bioelectrical Signals

    Creator:
    Cunha Dantas, Henrique
    Abstract:
    There are nearly two million limb amputees living in the United States of America. Loss of limbs results in profound changes in one's life. However, the underlying neural circuitry and much of the ability to sense and control movements of their missing limb is retained even after limb loss. This...

  • Explanations and Processes to Enable Humans to Assess AI with Respect to Manipulable Properties

    Creator:
    Dodge, Jonathan E.
    Abstract:
    Assessing AI systems is difficult. Humans rely on AI systems in increasing ways, both visible and invisible, meaning a variety of stakeholders need a variety of assessment tools (e.g., a professional auditor, a developer, and an end user all have different needs). We posit that it is possible to provide...

  • Accuracy versus cost in distributed data mining

    Creator:
    Deutschman, Stephanie
    Abstract:
    A basic tradeoff to consider when designing a distributed data-mining framework is the need for a compromise between the cost of communication and computation resources and the accuracy of the mining results. This is essentially a decision of whether it is more efficient to communicate all of the data to...

  • An ultra low voltage micropower GPS receiver RF front-end for wildlife tracking

    Creator:
    Heiberg, Adam C.
    Abstract:
    A fully integrated CMOS GPS receiver RF front end optimized for low power operation is presented. The system operates with a supply voltage down to 250 mV. A prototype has been fabricated in a 0.13μm CMOS process and includes a low voltage LNA, quadrature oscillators, and quadrature mixers. It exhibits...

  • Counterfactual States for Atari Agents via Generative Deep Learning

    Creator:
    Olson, Matthew L.
    Abstract:
    Although deep reinforcement learning agents have produced impressive results in many domains, their decision making is difficult to explain to humans. To address this problem, past work has mainly focused on explaining why an action was chosen in a given state. A different type of explanation that is useful is...

  • Novelty Detection Under the Multi-Instance Multi-Label Framework

    Creator:
    Lou, Qi
    Abstract:
    Novelty detection plays an important role in machine learning and signal processing. This project studies novelty detection in a new setting where the data object is represented as a bag of instances and associated with multiple class labels, referred to as multi-instance multi-label (MIML) learning. Contrary to the common assumption...

    Xu, Tanjin
    Abstract:
    An important impact of the genome technology revolution will be the elucidation of mechanisms of cancer pathogenesis, leading to improvements in the diagnosis of cancer and the selection of cancer treatment. Integrated with current well-studied massive knowledge and findings about the role of protein-coding mutations in cancer, demystifying the functional...

  • The InclusiveMag Method: A Start Towards More Inclusive Software for Diverse Populations

    Creator:
    Mendez, Christopher
    Abstract:
    How can software practitioners assess whether their software supports diverse users? Although there are empirical processes that can be used to find “inclusivity bugs” piecemeal, what is often needed is a systematic inspection method to assess software’s support for diverse populations. To help fill this gap, this thesis introduces InclusiveMag,...

  • Design Considerations and Circuit Techniques for Robust Ring-Amplifiers

    Creator:
    Venkatachala, Praveen Kumar
    Abstract:
    Ring amplifiers (ringamps) have shown excellent power efficiency in the latest state-of-the-art analog to digital converters (ADCs). This thesis describes circuit techniques to ensure robust operation of ringamps using standard analog techniques and proportional-integral-derivative(PID) controller analogy. Large-signal and small-signal analysis of a ringamp are performed using simple RC settling and...
