  • 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...

  • An empirical statistical model relating winds and ocean surface currents : implications for short-term current forecasts

    Creator:
    Zelenke, Brian Christopher
    Abstract:
    An empirical statistical model is developed that relates the non-tidal motion of the ocean surface currents off the Oregon coast to forecasts of the coastal winds. The empirical statistical model is then used to produce predictions of the surface currents that are evaluated for their agreement with measured currents. Measurements...
