Occupancy Estimation Through Visible Light Sensing (VLS)
(2019-05-01)
Visible light is everywhere around in our daily life. The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye is called visible light; it is in the range between 350-750 nm, which is roughly between 400-750 ...
Implementation of a Hardware Algorithm for Integer Division
(2019-08)
A hardware algorithm for integer division proposed by Naofumi Takagi, ShunsukeKadowaki and Kazuyoshi Takagi is implemented using the hardware-descriptive language called Verilog. The hardware algorithm is based on ...
Deep Autoencoders for Cross-Modal Retrieval
(2019-05-01)
Increased accuracy and affordability of depth sensors such as Kinect has created a great depth-data source for 3D processing. Specifically, 3D model retrieval is attracting attention in the field of computer vision and ...
Study of Smart Integrated Renewable Energy Systems (SIRES)
(2017-09)
Energy availability is a severe problem in majority of the remote rural areas of the world. Development of energy-resources-poor rural areas has been discussed by many in the past. Rural electrification was the first major ...
Measurement and analysis of natural video masked dynamic discrete cosine transform noise detectability
(2015-05)
Lossy video compression lowers fidelity and can leave visual artifacts. Current video compression algorithms are guided by quality assessment tools designed around subjective data based on aggressive video compression. ...
Front end of a 900MHz RFID for biological sensing
(2015-12)
This thesis presents the front end of a 900MHz passive RFID for biological sensing. The components blocks of the front end consist of power harvester, switch capacitor voltage regulator, phase lock loop and a modulator and ...
Home healthcare using ubiquitous computing and robot technologies
(2018-12)
The rapid increase of senior population worldwide is challenging the existing healthcare and support systems. Recently, smart home environments are utilized for ubiquitous health monitoring, allowing patients to stay in ...
Multiobjective differential evolution based on fuzzy performance feedback: Soft constraint handling and its application in antenna designs
(2015-12)
The recently emerging Differential Evolution is considered one of the most powerful tools for solving optimization problems. It is a stochastic population-based search approach for optimization over the continuous space. ...
CMOS circuit speed and power optimization using simplified RC delay model
(2015-05)
A simplified RC delay model which is expressed explicitly in terms of transistor widths is presented to easily perform circuit analysis and quickly optimize the transistor widths for delay and power without having to do ...
Enhanced rateless coding and compressive sensing for efficient data/multimedia transmission and storage in AD-HOC and sensor networks
(2012-12)
In this dissertation, we investigate the theory and applications of the novel class of FEC codes called rateless or fountain codes in video transmission and wireless sensor networks (WSN). First, we investigate the rateless ...
