Hybrid sensor fusion for unmanned ground vehicle by Guan, Mingyang

“…Extensive experiments have been designed on several large datasets to validate that: 1) the proposed tracking framework is superior to enhance the robustness of tracking model, 2) the proposed two weight solvers can effectively find the optimal weight for each feature. As expected, the proposed two trackers indeed improve the accuracy and robustness compared to the state-of-the-art trackers. …”

Guaranteed bounds on posterior distributions of discrete probabilistic programs with loops by Zaiser, F, Murawski, AS, Ong, C-HL

“…<br> The main novelty of our work is the second approach, called geometric bound semantics. It operates on a novel family of distributions, called eventually geometric distributions (EGDs), and can bound the distribution of loops with a new form of loop invariants called contraction invariants. …”

Knee joint measurement using CT scans for knee joint implant selection by Jing, Mei

“…With the help of the cutting guide, the surgeon cuts several pieces of bone from the end of the femur in order to match the implant shape, that’s called shaping the distal femoral bone. Then surgeons will place several different sizes of implant on it in order to find out the best fit one. (1) The objective of this project is to develop an efficient way to find out the suitable size of implant using CT scans or photo taking, to measure anterior-posterior and media-lateral lengths of the knee joint. …”

COSE : a query-centric framework of collaborative heterogeneous sensor networks by He, Yuan., Li, Zhen Jiang.

“…In this paper, we propose COSE, a query-centric framework of collaborative heterogeneous sensor networks, where sensor networks collaborate with each other for effective and efficient processing of queries. Finding an optimal strategy of query processing with respect to energy efficiency is a crucial issue in COSE, which we formulate into an optimization problem, called EE-QPS. …”

Turner‚ Bird‚ Eratosthenes: the eternal burning thread by Gibbons, J

“…As an illustration of these techniques, he popularized a one-line recursive “sieve” to generate the infinite list of prime numbers.</p> <p>Turner called this algorithm The Sieve of Eratosthenes. In a lovely paper called “The Genuine Sieve of Eratosthenes”, Melissa O’Neill argued that Turner’s program is not in fact a faithful implementation of the algorithm, and gave a detailed presentation using priority queues of the real thing. …”
