To enhance environmental turbulence measurements, we have designed and constructed a novel Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) instrument intended for field use. The data contained here was used for either validation of the instrument, or was produced by the instrument in proof-of-concept field testing.
PedX is a large-scale multi-modal collection of pedestrians at complex urban intersections. The dataset provides high-resolution stereo images and LiDAR data with manual 2D and automatic 3D annotations. The data was captured using two pairs of stereo cameras and four Velodyne LiDAR sensors.
The work guides the processing of CAM6 data for use in machine learning applications. We also provide workflow scripts for training both random forests and neural networks to emulate physic s schemes from the data, as well as analysis scripts written in both Python and NCL in order to process our results.

The collection contains the code and the data used to train machine learning algorithms to emulate simplified physical parameterizations within the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM6). CAM6 is the atmospheric general circulation model (GCM) within the Community Earth System Model (CESM) framework, developed by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). GCMs are made up of a dynamical core, responsible for the geophysical fluid flow calculations, and physical parameterization schemes, which estimate various unresolved processes. Simple physics schemes were used to train both random forests and neural networks in the interest of exploring the feasibility of machine learning techniques being used in conjunction with the dynamical core for improved efficiency of future climate and weather models. The results of the research show that various physical forcing tendencies and precipitation rates can be effectively emulated by the machine learning models.
The data represents weekly output from three 60-year CAM6 model runs. The output includes state (.h0. files) and tendency (.h1. files) fields for three difference model configurations of increasing complexity. State fields include temperature, surface pressure, specific humidity, among others; while tendencies include temperature tendencies, specific humidity tendencies, as well as precipitation rates. Using the state variables at a given time step, machine learning techniques can be trained to predict the following tendency field, which can then be applied to the state variables to provide the state at the next physics time step of the model.

The Sub-metered HVAC Implemented for Demand Response (SHIFDR) dataset is a massive dataset that captures the response of individual commercial building HVAC system components to demand response events. The dataset includes device-level power consumption during demand response events as well as during normal operation. We have organized the data into subsets, with each subset containing data from buildings in different parts of the world. Kindly refer to the README file within each subsection for specific information about how data is organized. Please reach out if you have data that you would like to share, find any mistakes in the data, or have any questions. We are always trying to improve SHIFDR.
This research introduces a novel method to produce biomimetic shapes using low cost soluble 3D printed molds. Mesenchymal stem cells in alginate matrix cell viability was studied. The alginate stem cell structure is made in a construct that is 21 mm wide, 6 mm high, with an arbor diameter of 1 mm (see Combined_Test_Channels.stl). The cells showed 64% survivability at 7 days in the 3D constructs.

UWslam is a dataset for underwater stereo and hybrid monocular fisheye + stereo SLAM in natural seafloor environments. The dataset includes a spiral survey of a shallow reef captured with a diver operated stereo rig and 4 hybrid image sequences captured with a deep ocean ROV in different deep ocean environments. Ground truth pose estimates for the spiral stereo trajectory were obtained by processing the image sequence through COLMAP. Ground truth pose estimates for the hybrid sequences were obtained by distributing fiducials on the seafloor before capturing an image sequence and processing the image sequences with the ROS based TagSLAM package.
