Applications of Gaussian Mixture Model to Weather Observations
(2011)
The estimation of weather parameters such as attenuation and rainfall rates from weather radar data has been based mainly on deterministic regression models. The applications of a Bayesian approach to weather parameters ...
Characterization of the convective boundary layer through a combination of large-eddy simulations and a radar simulator
(2011)
The boundary layer (BL) is the lowest part of the atmosphere where the flow field is directly influenced by interactions among air, heat, and the Earth's surface. The structure of flow in the BL is dynamic due to the fact ...
ADAPTIVE CHANNEL AND SOURCE CODING USING APPROXIMATE INFERENCE
(2011)
Channel coding and source coding are two important problems in communications. Although both channel coding and source coding (especially, the distributed source coding (DSC)) can achieve their ultimate performance by ...
DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A HIGH ENERGY PHASE CONTRAST X-RAY IMAGING SYSTEM PROTOTYPE
(2011)
The field of mammography receives constant research attention focused on improving the balance between the benefits of cancer screening and the risks of harmful radiation to the patient. As a result, numerous advancements ...
Unified security frameworks for integrated WiMAX and optical broadband access networks
(2011)
This dissertation proposes the integration of optical and Mobile Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) broadband access networks in order to combine the strengths of optical and wireless technologies and ...
