Feasibility studies for quantum computation with spectral hole burning media
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
In this thesis I consider a scheme for quantum computation in which quantum bits (qubits) are stored in individual spectral holes of an in homogeneously broadened medium, such as a cryogenically cooled crystal of Pr:Y2 SiO ...
An axial force sensor for a prosthetic knee
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
Protection and fusing in advanced automotive electrical environment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Generation of non-verbal behavior for an embodied conversational character
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
This thesis discusses the generation of multi-modal conversational cues in animated computer characters. Drawing from psycholinguistic literature of behaviors observed in human-human interactions, a study of turn-taking ...
Quantum mechanics on phase space : geometry and motion of the Wigner distribution
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
We study the Wigner phase space formulation of quantum mechanics and compare it to the Hamiltonian picture of classical mechanics. In this comparison we focus on the differences in initial conditions available to each ...
