  • Identifiability-Aware Joint Sparse Error Correction For Robust State Estimation

    Creator:
    Kibria, Sharmin
    Abstract:
    We study joint nonlinear state estimation with multi-period measurement vectors that are potentially corrupted by sparse gross errors. The identifiability-aware approach is proposed to leverage common characteristics of fundamentally identifiable gross errors to enhance error correction performance. First, we derive a necessary rank condition that the sparsity pattern of any...

  • On Avoiding Power-Seeking by Artificial Intelligence

    Creator:
    Turner, Alexander M.
    Abstract:
    We do not know how to align a very intelligent AI agent's behavior with human interests. I investigate whether—absent a full solution to this AI alignment problem—we can build smart {\ai} agents which have limited impact on the world, and which do not autonomously seek power. In this thesis, I...

  • Effects of ultraviolet illumination and a parylene-A activation layer on the gas phase sensing characteristics of ZnO nanobridges

    Creator:
    Mason, Ashley D.
    Abstract:
    ZnO nanowires (NWs) are good candidates for chemical sensing because of their high surface-to-volume ratio. In this work, ZnO nanobridge sensors were fabricated utilizing a novel method which uses carbonized photoresist (C-PR) as a nucleation layer. The use of C-PR allows simultaneous growth and integration of NWs to lithographically-defined features....

  • Deletions and Insertions of the Symbol 0 and Asymmetric/Unidirectional Error Control Codes for the L₁ Metric

    Creator:
    Alqwaifly, Nawaf
    Abstract:
    This work gives some theory and efficient design of binary block codes capable of controlling the deletions of the symbol “0” (referred to as 0-deletions) and/or the insertions of the symbol “0” (referred to as 0-insertions). This problem of controlling 0-deletions and/or 0-insertions (referred to as symmetric 0-errors) is shown...

  • Identifying and Removing On-chip Network Bottleneck in Throughput Processors

    Creator:
    Li, Yunfan
    Abstract:
    The high level of parallelism in throughput processors such as GPGPUs has resulted in significantly changed on-chip data traffic behaviors. This demands new research to identify and address the limiting factors of networks-on-chip (NoCs) in the context of throughput processors. In this work, we first quantitatively analyze the performance of...

  • Electromagnetic analysis of energy system devices

    Creator:
    Li, Yan
    Abstract:
    Many new applications of energy system devices have been developed to save energy, improve the controllability and stability of industrial processes, and reduce the weight, volume and cost of consumer devices. Due to the novelty of these devices, traditional empirical methods and lumped-parameter circuit theory methods are not sufficient for...

  • Ring Amplifier Design Techniques for High-Precision and High-Speed Amplification

    Creator:
    Leuenberger, Spencer
    Abstract:
    Demands of today's integrated society dependent on communication systems have driven the creation of ever more efficient analog-to-digital converters. For the same reasons, digital circuitry has rapidly expanded to serve all the different systems and needs of consumers. The trend of technology development has been to make these digital circuits...

  • Efficient Spectrum Sensing and Sharing Techniques for Dynamic Wideband Spectrum Access

    Creator:
    Khalfi, Bassem
    Abstract:
    Besides enabling an enhanced mobile broadband access, fifth-generation (5G) wireless mobile networks are envisioned to support the connectivity of massive, heterogeneous Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Connecting these devices through 5G systems and providing them with their needed data rates require huge amounts of spectrum and power resources, thus calling...

  • 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...

  • Co-channel Blocker and Self-Interferer Tolerant Receiver Architectures for MIMO and Full-Duplex MIMO Receivers

    Creator:
    Jain, Sanket
    Abstract:
    This research focuses on receiver architectures which enable better spectral eciency by handling blockers in the same spectral range as the signal. The presence of such blockers, without the use of blocker cancelling/ ltering techniques leads to gain compression and hence, consequent performance degradation of receivers leading to reduced spectrum...
