  • Adversarial Policy Switching with Application to RTS Games

    Creator:
    King, Brian, Fern, Alan, and Hostetler, Jesse
    Abstract:
    Complex games such as RTS games are naturally formalized as Markov games. Given a Markov game, it is often possible to hand-code or learn a set of policies that capture the diversity of possible strategies. It is also often possible to hand-code or learn an abstract simulator of the game...

  • Toward Automated Decision-Making in Power Systems Wide-Area Protection

    Creator:
    Meier, Richard John
    Abstract:
    In recent years there have been many improvements in the reliability of critical infrastructure systems. Despite these improvements and despite targeted efforts to improve the operation and control of the electric grid, the power systems industry has seen relatively small advances in this regard. For instance, today's power system is...

  • Energy and area efficient techniques for data converters

    Creator:
    Venkatram, Hariprasath
    Abstract:
    Data converters are ubiquitous building blocks of a signal chain. The rapid increase in communication and connectivity devices presents new avenues for pushing the state of the art analog to digital converters. Techniques for improving resolution, bandwidth, linearity and bit-error rate, while reducing the power, energy and area is the...

  • Teacher perceptions of training and pedagogical value of cross-reality and sensor data from smart buildings

    Creator:
    Rowe, Shawn, Riggio, Mariapaola, De Amicis, Raffaele, and Rowe, Susan R.
    Abstract:
    This paper discusses elementary, and secondary (K-12) teachers’ perceptions of cross-reality (XR) tools for data visualization and use of sensor data from the built environment in classroom curricula. Our objective was to explore the use of sensor-informed XR in the built environment and civil engineering (BECE) field to support K-12...

  • Large-Area Nanoplasmonic Structures for Enhanced Fluorescence-Based Biosensing

    Creator:
    Wang, Yi-Chieh
    Abstract:
    An innovative silver nano-dimple arrays (Ag DAs)-integrated microfluidic device was developed to achieve highly sensitive fluorescence-based nucleic acid detection. The Ag DAs were utilized to produce surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for strong fluorescence enhancement. We systematically investigated the plasmon-enhanced fluorescence by controlling the nanostructure dimension of the Ag DA substrate....

  • Distributed Dynamic Multi-Area State Estimation with Fusion Technique

    Creator:
    Guo, Jia
    Abstract:
    As the power system grows larger and more complex, real-time monitoring and control become very significant in order to achieve reliable operation of the power system. Before any security assessment can be made or control actions are taken, the reliable estimate of the existing state of the system must be...

  • The Partitioning Technique of Power System to Improve the Observability of Sub-System for Multi-area State Estimation

    Creator:
    Lyu, Tao
    Abstract:
    An accurate state estimation plays an essential role in power system operation and planning in energy management systems. However, existing multi-area state estimation researches have not focused on the importance of system clustering. The clustering mechanism divides or partitions a system according to user-defined criteria. Few published research works have...

  • Analysis and design on low-power short-range radios for wireless body area networks

    Creator:
    Cheng, Jiao
    Abstract:
    The release of the IEEE802.15.6 standard has led to increased interest in low-power technologies for wireless body-area-networks (WBANs). The power dissipation, supply voltage, and die area are some of the most important criteria for successful WBAN implementations. Digital-intensive RX architectures can potentially result in sub-1V operation with significant reductions in...

  • Noise and Blocker Cancellation Techniques for Power and Area Efficient Wireless Receivers

    Creator:
    Pourbagheri, Saeed
    Abstract:
    The design of mobile wireless devices has always focused on reducing power, area, and cost. This dissertation proposes two techniques that are leveraged to save power and area and therefore cost. The first techniques reduces the noise in the receiver and results in a relaxed power requirement. The second technique...

  • Evaluating the seismic risk and resilience of an electrical power system

    Creator:
    Chalishazar, Vishvas H.
    Abstract:
    The Pacific Northwest is part of the "Ring of Fire," which is well-known for heavy seismic activity. Numerous active faults in the area have encouraged electric grid managers in the region to more deeply contemplate and proactively intervene to support grid resilience. This research introduces Monte Carlo (MC) based power...
