Obesity classification from facial images using deep learning
(Wichita State University, 2021-04-02)INTRODUCTION: Obesity is a serious health problem that is on the rise both in the United States and globally. Obesity is frequently defined using the clinical Body Mass Index (BMI) ratio of height and weight. Overweight ... -
Object oriented router simulator

Object recall from natural-language descriptions for autonomous robotic grasping
(IEEE, 2020-01-20)Humans acquire grasping skills through repeated interaction with the objects; and they internalize the knowledge of various physical attributes of such objects. Even blindfolded, humans can reasonably estimate a suitable ... -
Observer based, dead-beat controller with reduced sensitivity
(IEEE, 1988-06-15)In this paper, a method is proposed for the design of linear, multivariable, discrete-time controllers with the following characteristics: 1. Constant-gain, minimal order observer - based control laws, 2. n-step, dead beat ... -
The observer-based controller design of discrete-time singularly perturbed systems
(IEEE, 1987-03-01)A class of linear shift-invariant discrete-time singularly perturbed systems with inaccessible states is considered. A design technique is formulated by which the stabilizing controller can be formed through the controllers ... -
The observer-based controller design of the discrete-time singularly perturbed systems
(IEEE, 1986-06-18)The dynamic feedback control for a class of linear shift-invariant discrete-time singularly perturbed systems with inaccessible states is considered through a separate observer-based controller design for two lower-dimensional ... -
Obstacle adaptive approaches for distributed task assignment in autonomous mobile robots
(Wichita State University, 2009-07)It has many challenges to assign a group of mobile robots to individual targets according to the specific constraints. In addition to the group behavior constraints (one-toone or one-to-many) of the task assignment, some ... -
OCTOPUS: an on-demand communication topology updating strategy for mobile sensor networks
(IEEE, 2011-04)Mobile sensor networks are characterized by dynamic changes in communication links and network topology caused mainly due to node mobility. In such networks, it is a challenge to build a communication system that lasts ... -
On automatically classifying software code review feedback in the context of internal quality
(Wichita State University, 2017-07)Recent empirical studies show that the practice of peer-code-review improves soft- ware quality. Therein, the quality is examined from the external perspective of reducing the defects/failures, i.e., bugs, in reviewed ... -
On level-1 cache locking for high-performance low-power real-time multicore systems
(Elsevier, 2013-04-16)Multiple caches in multicore architecture increase power consumption and timing unpredictability. Although cache locking in single-core systems shows improvement for large multithreaded applications, there is no such ... -
On Localization for Magnetic Induction-based Wireless Sensor Networks in Pipeline Environments
(IEEE, 2015-06)The wireless sensor networks can enable the real-time monitoring in the pipeline environments, which can facilitate important applications such as structure identification and fault diagnosis. The magnetic induction ... -
On Schwarz canonical form for large system simplification
(IEEE, 1975-04-01)Recently a new technique for the reduction of a large-order dynamical system, using Schwarz canonical form, has been proposed [1]. It is presently shown that the above is essentially a frequency domain technique for which ... -
On sequence design for relay networks with multipath
(IEEE, 2013)A method for a spreading sequence design based on signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) is presented in this paper. It considers the relay channel where sources communicate with the receiver via relays under ... -
On the capacity of a wireless backhaul for the distribution level of the smart grid
(IEEE, 2014-06)Many application scenarios envisioned as part of the "smarter" grid depend on an effective underlying communication infrastructure for power distribution. The advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is one such application ... -
On the dependence of burst losses on the packet inter-arrival times in VoIP
(IEEE, 2009-12-06)In this paper, the dependency of length of burst losses on the packet inter-arrival time in Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is analyzed and modeled using the semi-Markov process. The model helps in predicting future ... -
On the design of a graduate-level cross-disciplinary course on smart grids
(IEEE, 2012-07)Development and maintenance of smart grids require power systems engineers to have a good understanding of auxiliary fields like computer networks and vice-versa. This paper discusses a graduate level course and its offered ... -
On the design of high gain feedback sampled-data systems
