- Description:
- This dataset is part of a collection released in support of an IROS 2023 workshop publication, with a supporting website ( https://sites.google.com/umich.edu/novelsensors2023). To enable new research in the area of novel sensors for autonomous vehicles, these datasets are designed for the task of place recognition with novel sensors. To our knowledge, this new dataset is the first to include stereo thermal cameras together with stereo event cameras and stereo monochrome cameras, which perform better in low-light than RGB cameras., The dataset collection platform is a Ford Fusion vehicle with roof-mounted sensing suite, which consists of forward-facing stereo uncooled thermal cameras (FLIR Boson 640+ ADK), event cameras (iniVation DVXplorer), monochrome cameras (FLIR BFS-PGE-16S2M), and RGB cameras (FLIR BFS-PGE-50S5C) aligned with ground truth position from a high precision navigation system. Sequences include ~10 km routes, which may be driven repeatedly under varying lighting conditions and feature instances of direct sunlight and low-light that challenge conventional cameras., and A software toolkit to facilitate efficient use of the dataset including dataset download, application of calibration parameters, and evaluation of place recognition results based on standard metrics (e.g., maximum recall at 100% precision). These software tools for converting, managing, and viewing datafiles can be found at the associated GitHub repository ( https://github.com/umautobots/nsavp_tools).

- Description:
- This data provided evidence of the presence of a lower hybrid drift instability in a magnetic nozzle. It was used in DOI: 10.1063/5.0012668 to estimate the effective electron collision frequency that it induced in the context of cross-field electron transport. It is also used to determine the effective reduction in heat flux resulting from propagation along magnetic field lines in an upcoming work.

- Description:
- This is a subset of the SHIFDR dataset collection containing data from 14 buildings in Southeast Michigan. The full dataset collection can be found at https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/data/collections/vh53ww273?locale=en and Organization: We include a subfolder for each building, identified by name. All buildings have been renamed after lakes to protect the identity of the building. Within each building subfolder, there is fan power (i.e. current measurements from which fan power can be computed), building automation system (BAS), whole building electrical load (WBEL), and voltage data collected over the course of our experimentation from 2017 to 2021. All experiments were conducted in the summer months and a full schedule of Demand Response (DR) events is included along with each building in the ‘Event_Schedule.csv’ file. The building information file contains general information about the buildings, pertinent to the experiments we conducted. There is also a folder labeled ‘2021 Preprocessed data’ which contains combined BAS and fan power data from the summer of 2021. This data has been lightly processed to calculate fan power from current measurements and interpolate BAS data to 1 minute intervals. These act as an easy-to-use starting point for data analysis.

Resources for Training Machine Learning Algorithms Using CAM6 Simple Physics Packages
User Collection- Creator:
- Limon, Garrett
- Description:
- 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.

- Description:
- 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.

SHIFDR: Sub-metered HVAC Implemented For Demand Response
User Collection- Creator:
- Lin, Austin and Mathieu, Johanna
- Description:
- 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.

- Description:
- 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.

- Description:
- 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.

- Description:
- The data and scripts are meant to show how burster dynamics determine response to a single biphasic stimulus. The files include data which show trends in the propensity of termination for different burster types and the MATLAB scripts used to generate this data. The MATLAB scripts also allow the user to generate their own data sets for alternative bursting paths and stimulus parameter combinations. Furthermore, they allow the user to visually examine the effects of single stimuli in the voltage timeseries and in state space. How the user can access these features of the script is described in the file "ReadMe.pdf."

- Description:
- In this work, we perform Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA) for the background solar wind in order to quantify contributions from uncertainty of different model parameters to the variability of in-situ solar wind speed and density at 1au, both of which have a major impact on CME propagation and strength. Scripts written in the Julia language are used to build the PCE and calculate the sensitivity results. Data is available in csv, NetCDF and JLD files. A `Project.toml` file is included to activate and install all required dependencies (See README for details).

- Description:
- To produce this dataset, three modes of the flywheel were tested. The first was with the flywheel off, which produced a baseline for roll without stabilization. The second mode was active stabilization with the flywheel spinning. An IMU on board took in roll in degrees. An Arduino uno used the roll angle to precess the flywheel to a degree that countered the roll. The last mode was passive stabilization with the flywheel on. Here, the precession belt was removed which allowed the flywheel to freely precess and counter the moment generated by the roll.
