Applications of RF-powered computing systems: wearable EEG monitor and bistable display tag
(2013-11-14)The advances in electronics reduced the energy requirements for computation and sensing to an extent needed to enable RF-powered systems. We demonstrate that it is possible to build key components of a ubiquitous computing ... -
Applications of Statistical and Machine Learning to Civil Infrastructure
Roadway, buildings, and electrical infrastructure in the United States are triumphs of modern engineering and represent enormous societal investments. With the proliferation of emerging technologies---from solar panels to ... -
Applications of Statistical Modeling in Iterative CT Image Reconstruction
Traditionally, x-ray CT images are produced by an algorithm called filtered back projection, or FBP. FBP is an analytical solution to the idealized CT image reconstruction problem, the inverse problem of turning raw x-ray ... -
Assessment of Plug-in Electric Vehicles Charging on Distribution Networks
(2012-09-13)The demand for plug-in electric vehicles has grown rapidly in recent years due to lower operation costs and lower emissions in comparison to conventional, gas-powered vehicles. Despite these benefits, it is essential for ... -
Assessment of the Electrification of the Road Transport Sector on Net System Emissions
As worldwide environmental consciousness grows, electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more common and despite the incredible potential for emissions reduction, the net emissions of the power system supply side plus the ... -
Automatic Characterization of Text Difficulty
For the millions of U.S. adults who do not read well enough to complete day-to-day tasks, challenges arise in reading news articles or employment documents, researching health conditions, and a variety of other tasks. ... -
Automatic measurement-based characterization of off-chip interconnect circuitry using lumped elements
(1997)As clock speeds of digital circuits continue to increase, the performance of board-level and package-level circuitry has become an important factor in digital design. The same is true in the consumer wireless communications ... -
Automatic sentence structure annotation for spoken language processing
(2008)Increasing amounts of easily available electronic data are precipitating a need for automatic processing that can aid humans in digesting large amounts of data. Speech and video are becoming an increasingly significant ... -
Automatic Summarization of Endoscopic Surgical Videos
Endoscopic endonasal surgery is a medical procedure that utilizes an endoscopic video camera to view and manipulate a surgical site accessed through the nose. Despite these surgeries being video recorded, these videos are ... -
Automatic target recognition using location uncertainty
(2000)In this dissertation, we present a framework for using location uncertainty information in computer vision applications. This framework is applied to the military automatic target detection and recognition application. We ... -
Automatic Video Analysis for Electronic Monitoring of Fishery Activities
Recently, automated imagery analysis techniques have drawn increasing attention in fishery science and industry. Compared to traditional human observing and monitoring, automated imagery analysis techniques are more scalable ... -
Automatic Video Analysis for Fisheries Survey Systems
Fisheries survey with the use of cameras has drawn increasing attention since it enables a non-lethal and high-resolution sampling of the fish stocks. This dissertation strives to build an automatic video analysis system ... -
Batteries in Electricity Markets: Economic Planning and Operations
Batteries have been storing electricity for mankind since 1800, while it is till recently that grid-scale battery energy storage become commercially viable and are seeking merchant opportunities in electricity markets. ... -
Battery-free Connected Cameras
Wireless cameras have traditionally been considered extremely power-hungry devices. The battery life of wearable camera systems (such as Google Glass, or Snap Spectacles) is under an hour when capturing video. Similarly, ... -
Beam Training Optimization for Millimeter Wave Communication
Millimeter wave (mmWave) technology has emerged as a promising solution to the spectrum demands of 5G networks. To achieve the necessary link budget for high throughput data transfer, mmWave links employ beamforming using ... -
Behavior Changing Gestural Interface Design via Machine and Human Mutual Adaptation
For centuries, the search for operating methods that are easy, intuitive and efficient has never stopped, and will most definitely go on. The current technologies allow us to interact with computers without mouse and ... -
Biochemical Controller Made From DNA
The potential of robots operating at a molecular or cellular scale is only limited by the imagination — for instance, nanorobots could navigate the bloodstream, identify a tumor and eliminate it cell by cell resulting in ... -
Biosensors Embedded in Contact Lenses for Human Health Monitoring
(2013-07-25)This dissertation covers my graduate research about the development of micro biosensors which are embedded in soft contact lenses for human health monitoring in University of Washington. The work mainly focuses on two ... -
Brain Computer Interfaces: Privacy, Ethics, and Policy
The ability to record and access neural signals is expanding, primarily driven by commercial entities developing non-invasive headsets that can control digital devices using a person’s neural electrical signals. This is ... -
BRIDGING THE GAPS FOR VALUING DISTRIBUTED ENERGY RESOURCES
Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) comprise of distributed generation (DG), energy storage (ES) and demand response (DR). DERs are different from other participants because of their distinctive characteristics: they are ...
