  • Action Selection for Heterologous Control of a Continuous-Output Myoelectric Prosthesis

    Creator:
    Sylwester, Sean T.
    Abstract:
    Significance: Movement intent decoding algorithms can interpret human bioelectrical signals to control prosthetic limbs with many degrees of freedom (DOFs). This work involves decoding volitional movement intent from surface electromyogram (sEMG) signals to control prosthetic arms. To train these algorithms, patients flex their muscles to “follow” a movement prompt, and...

  • A comparative study between sinusoidal and squarewave clocking for alleviating the jitter limitation in multi-gigaHertz ADCs

    Creator:
    Kesharwani, Divya
    Abstract:
    Various applications like wireless UWB communication, fast data acquisition systems and digital storage oscilloscopes needs ADCs with instantaneous input signal bandwidth from 0.1-40 GigaHertz range with 6-10 bits of resolution -- a challenging task and an impressive goal to achieve. Flash ADCs have been conventionally employed to achieve these goals...

  • 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...

  • Algorithms for massive biological datasets

    Creator:
    Bryant, Douglas W. (Douglas Wesley)
    Abstract:
    Within the past several years the technology of high-throughput sequencing has transformed the study of biology by offering unprecedented access to life's fundamental building block, DNA. With this transformation's potential a host of brand-new challenges have emerged, many of which lend themselves to being solved through computational methods. From de...

  • Crowdsourcing via Pairwise Co-occurrences: Identifiability and Algorithms

    Creator:
    Ibrahim, Shahana
    Abstract:
    Crowdsourcing is a popular paradigm to address the high demands for labeled data in big data deluge. It aims to produce accurate labels by effectively integrating noisy, non-expert labeling from crowdsourced workers (annotators). The machine learning community has been studying effective crowdsourcing methods for many years, and many models and...

  • Coupled Compressive Sensing : Sequential Reinforcement Approach

    Creator:
    De Silva, Shashini A.
    Abstract:
    We consider multiple Compressive Sensing (CS) problems wherein the supports of signal vectors of CS problems are restricted to satisfy a collection of joint logical constraints, which we refer to as coupling constraints. We consider a case where the coupling constraints are encoded in a graph and present a sequential...

  • Secure Data Analytics under Data Integrity Attacks

    Creator:
    De Silva, Shashini A.
    Abstract:
    There has been tremendous growth in using data analytic and machine learning algorithms to make critical decisions, such as in the national power grid, healthcare operations, and autonomous vehicles. Employing data analytic for decision-making allows cyber attackers to manipulate the decisions of these algorithms through data falsification. Hence, the trustworthiness...

  • Determination of magnetoelastic parameters in magnetic thin films from FMR spectra

    Creator:
    Masood, Khalid I.
    Abstract:
    The ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) phenomenon serves as a sensitive probe of the effective internal fields in a magnetic material. FMR spectroscopy has consequently become a well-established technique, extensively employed in assessing material properties such as magnetic anisotropy, Landé g-factor, damping parameter, and the magnetoelastic constants of magnetic materials. Determining these...
