Enhancing Physical Modeling with Interpretable Physics-Aware Machine Learning
(2024)
The burgeoning intersection of machine learning (ML) with physics has catalyzed a transformative approach to physical modeling marked by an enhanced capacity for innovation and discovery. Traditional applications of ML in ...
Data-Efficient Robotic Manipulation of Deformable One-dimensional Objects with Unreliable Dynamics
(2023)
If I were to ask you to fold a towel, you would probably do it without much thought or difficulty -- but how? How did you know where the towel was? Did you think about how the towel would move or deform, and how you'd react ...
Multifunctional Ferroelectrics based Devices for Next Generation RF Front-ends
(2024)
This dissertation presents designs of acoustic wave resonators based on two different multifunctional ferroelectric materials: Barium Strontium Titanate (BaxSr1-xTiO3, BST) and Scandium Aluminum Nitride (ScxAl1-xN, ScAlN), ...
Counter-Hypothetical Evidential Reasoning for Mobile Manipulation Robots
(2024)
Although robots can perform in structured environments, they struggle to perceive and operate within cluttered, dynamic, and previously unseen settings. Nonparametric Bayesian inference has the potential to address these ...
Data-Driven Surrogate Models for Computational Fluid Dynamics
(2024)
The use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become essential for aerospace design optimization processes. The computational cost of high-fidelity CFD is often very large and can make design optimization prohibitively ...
Synthesis and Characteristics of Transferrable Single-Crystalline AlN Nanomembranes
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Springer, 2023-05)
Single-crystalline inorganic semiconductor nanomembranes (NMs) have attracted great attention over the last decade, which poses great advantages to complex device integration. Applications in heterogeneous electronics and ...
Non-invasive treatment of ischemia/reperfusion injury: Effective transmission of therapeutic near-infrared light into the human brain through soft skin-conforming silicone waveguides
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023-05)
Noninvasive delivery of near-infrared light (IRL) to human tissues has been researched as a treatment for several acute and chronic disease conditions. We recently showed that use of specific IRL wavelengths, which inhibit ...
Learning True Objectives: Linear Algebraic Characterizations of Identifiability in Inverse Reinforcement Learning
(2024-05-31)
Inverse reinforcement Learning (IRL) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for extracting expert
skills from observed behavior, with applications ranging from autonomous systems to humanrobot
interaction. However, the ...
Development of Machine-Learning Models for Autonomous Vehicle Decisions on Weaving Sections of Freeway Ramps
(Center for Connected and Automated Transportation, 2024-02-13)
This research aims to develop human data-driven automated lane-change models for freeway weaving sections using computational methods that assist drivers taking an exit ramp or entering a freeway. A naturalistic driving ...
