Topics in Steady-state MRI Sequences and RF Pulse Optimization.
(2015)
Small-tip fast recovery (STFR) is a recently proposed rapid steady-state magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence that has the potential to be an alternative to the popular balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) ...
73.1: Large‐Area Plasma‐Panel Radiation Detectors for Nuclear Medicine Imaging to Homeland Security and the Super Large Hadron Collider
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010-05)
A new radiation sensor derived from plasma panel display technology is introduced. It has the capability to detect ionizing and non‐ionizing radiation over a wide energy range and the potential for use in many applications. ...
Understanding Complex Human Behaviour in Images and Videos.
(2013)
Understanding human motions and activities in images and videos is an important problem in many application domains, including surveillance, robotics, video indexing, and sports analysis. Although much progress has been ...
Competition and Optimization in Electricity Systems
(2014)
Electricity prices are characterized by high volatility and severe price spikes. At the root of these phenomena is the strategic behavior of market participants. A good understanding of the market competition is key to ...
3D Object Representations for Recognition.
(2016)
Object recognition from images is a longstanding and challenging problem in computer vision. The main challenge is that the appearance of objects in images is affected by a number of factors, such as illumination, scale, ...
Detection, Synchronization, Channel Estimation and Capacity in UWB Sensor Networks using Compressed Sensing.
(2014)
Conventional receivers in ultrawideband (UWB) communication system usually require high sampling rate and thus consume much power. With compressed sensing (CS), the sampling rate can potentially be reduced. In this thesis, ...
Energy Saving and Scavenging in Stand-alone and Large Scale Distributed Systems.
(2015)
This thesis focuses on energy management techniques for distributed systems such as hand-held mobile devices, sensor nodes, and data center servers. One of the major design problems in multiple application domains is the ...
Wireless Transceivers for Implantable Microsystems.
(2013)
In this thesis, we present the first-ever fully integrated mm3 low-power biomedical transceiver with 1 meter of range that is powered by a mm2 thin-film battery. The transceiver is targeted for biomedical implants where ...
