Solving Physical Reasoning Tasks in Simulated Environments

Creator:: Shureih, Zeyad
Abstract:: We take for granted how quickly we, as humans, form mental models of the world around us. By the time we are toddlers, we have an observable intuition around the physical rules of the world. Stacking blocks such that they don’t fall over becomes such a trivial task, that it...

Sensorless Localization for Robots and Wheelchairs

Creator:: Subramanian, Ashwin
Abstract:: Despite an increase in the number of people who rely on manual wheelchairs, there are still substantial economic barriers to affordable and accessible localization systems. As a result, there is a pressing need to build a versatile yet low cost localization system for manual wheelchairs. Such systems allow users to...

Recurrent Neural Networks for Robotic Control of a Human-Scale Bipedal Robot

Creator:: Siekmann, Jonah A.
Abstract:: Dynamic bipedal locomotion is among the most difficult and yet relevant problems in modern robotics. While a multitude of classical control methods for bipedal locomotion exist, they are often brittle or limited in capability. In recent years, work in applying reinforcement learning to robotics has lead to superior performance across...

Cytokine expression in Danio rerio (zebrafish) in response to TLR-7 agonist - Imiquimod

Creator:: Paternostro, Kevin Alan
Abstract:: Utilizing Danio rerio (zebrafish) as a model organism has gained popularity recently, however a lack of research into their immune response pathways had led to the discovery of subclinical infections, and has potentially confounded results. We conducted a study to determine the cytokine expression from TLR activation in order to...

The introduction of renewable wave energy to the existing power grid

Creator:: Ruthruff, William Arthur
Abstract:: Wind energy is a cornerstone to the world of renewables. It is widely used in many parts of the world as a clean and effective form of power generation. However, wind power has a number of drawbacks, which limits its use in many regions. Solar power has been used not...

An Exploration Into The Ever-changing Expanse of Non-periodic Tilings

Creator:: Tassin, Ian
Abstract:: This paper synthesizes various works Wang tiles up to this point, including: the reduction from the Halting Problem to Wang Tiling Problem and notions around various aspects of periodicity, including minimal period, aperiodicity, and axis-aligned periodicity. Additionally it includes new work, including: a proof that a tiling can be periodic...

Revolutionary Love: Solidarity in the Vietnam Anti-War Movement

Creator:: Nguyen, Darlene
Abstract:: The Vietnamese population that migrated to the United States is largely tied to South Vietnam. As the population settled, their strong opposition to communism has driven many in the community towards political alignment with the alt-right and even white nationalists. The proximity to these movements and their seeming tolerance of...

Interaction of the human Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel 1 protein (VDAC-1) with Mycobacterium avium and its role in bacterial survival within phagocytic cells

Creator:: Pham, Tuan
Abstract:: M. avium is an opportunistic pathogen that primarily infects macrophages. In order to survive within the macrophage, M. avium secretes proteins into the host cell cytoplasm to inhibit specific functions such as phagosome acidification, altering pathways as well as initiating apoptosis. However, little is known about how those secreted proteins...
