Externalizing and interpreting autonomic arousal in people diagnosed with autism
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This research explores how externalization of physiological states helps to provide an awareness of hidden stressors through a home-based study, a lab-based study, and a school-based study in order to facilitate social ... -
Extra robotic legs for augmenting human payload and positioning capabilities
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)The Extra Robotic Legs (XRL) system is a robotic augmentation worn by a human operator that consists of two articulated robot legs that help bear a heavy backpack payload and a portion of the operator's own weight. The ... -
Extra-terrestrial nuclear power stations : transportation and operation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Many challenges exist when considering nuclear power to provide electricity for bases on the Moon or Mars, including launch safety, landing safety, deployment, control, and protecting the astronauts from radiation. Examples ... -
Extracellular electrical stimulation of retinal ganglion cells
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
Extracellular Vesicle Capture and microRNA Detection
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the United states, and there has been much focus on earlier detection through the discovery of novel, easily accessible biomarkers via liquid biopsies. Extracellular vesicles ... -
Extracting 3D motion from hand-drawn animated figures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1991) -
Extracting and optimizing low-level bytecode from high-level verified Coq
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)This document is an MEng thesis presenting MCQC, a compiler for extracting verified systems programs to low-level assembly, with no Runtime or Garbage Collection requirements and an emphasis on performance. MCQC targets ... -
Extracting classical information from quantum states : fundamental limits, adaptive and finite-length measurements
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Motivated by the increasing demand for more powerful and efficient optical communication systems, quantum mechanics of information processing has become the key element in determining the fundamental limits of physical ... -
Extracting clinically-actionable information from wearable physiological monitors
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this thesis I examine several ways of extracting information from wearable monitors so as to help make clinical decisions. Wearable physiological sensors are developing rapidly, and pose a possible part of the solution ... -
Extracting damping ratios using wavelets
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)The focus of this work is to evaluate the accuracy of methods for extracting damping ratios with respect to: three extraction methods, different damping ratios, added noisy data, separated modes and close modes. To achieve ... -
Extracting diverse attribute-value information from product catalog text via transfer learning
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)E-commerce sites are increasingly becoming the norm for how consumers search, purchase, and review products. Such sites internally list millions of products, creating a torrent of product options that can overwhelm a ... -
Extracting Electromechanical Signals for Icebreaker Insights
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-05)Nonintrusive load monitoring has a proven track record of providing benefits for equipment operation logging, fault detection and diagnostics, condition-based maintenance, and energy scorekeeping. A nonintrusive load monitor ... -
Extracting energy from unsteady flows through vortex control
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
Extracting expressive performance information from recorded music
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Extracting fields from free-text
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)The Field Extraction Library (FEL) provides functions for named-entity extraction within free text. FEL models the content structure of the specified named-entities rather than relying on brittle, context-specific separator ... -
Extracting fluid properties through high-speed video analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)We explore a non-contact method to measure changes in fluid properties by analyzing refractive motion in high speed video. We present a method of extracting fluid properties by performing video motion analysis using an ... -
Extracting information from biological networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Systems biology, the study of biological systems in a holistic manner, has been catalyzed by a dramatic improvement in experimental techniques, coupled with a constantly increasing availability of biological data. The ... -
Extracting information from informal communication
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This thesis focuses on the problem of extracting information from informal communication. Textual informal communication, such as e-mail, bulletin boards and blogs, has become a vast information resource. However, such ... -
Extracting more wisdom from the crowd
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)In many situations, from economists predicting unemployment rates to chemists estimating fuel safety, individuals have differing opinions or predictions. We consider the wisdom-of-the-crowd problem of aggregating the ... -
Extracting multi-person respiration from entangled RF signals
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Recent advances in wireless systems have demonstrated the possibility of tracking a person's respiration using the RF signals that bounce off her body. The resulting breathing signal can be used to infer the person's sleep ...
