Extension and implementation of the mod without mod algorithm to efficiently compute the modulus of a number in hardware
(2020-12)
This thesis discusses a hardware implementation of modulo that does not require a multiplication. This implementation is based on the algorithm proposed in Mark A. Will's "Mod without mod" in which the an algorithm is ...
Holistic indoor scene understanding by context supported instance segmentation
(2020-12)
Intelligent robots require advanced vision capabilities to perceive and interact with the real physical world. While computer vision has made great strides in recent years, its predominant paradigm still focuses on building ...
Lithium-ion cell modeling, state estimation, and fault detection considering state of health for battery management systems
(2022-12)
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with high energy density and longer cycle life enable a comparable driving range per charge for electric vehicles (EVs) with their gas counterparts. However, the LIBs are very sensitive to ...
Impact of wildfires on power systems
(2021-12)
Power systems, particularly those located near forests, are exposed to wildfires during summer seasons especially in regions with high temperatures. This issue may impact on operation of power grids and thus their reliability ...
Automatic design of deep neural network architectures with evolutionary computation
