QProf--a scalable profiler for the Q back end
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
QT-interval adaptation to changes in autonomic balance
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)ECG variability, as it relates to the influence of the autonomic nervous system on the heart, is primarily studied via frequency-domain and time-domain analysis of heart rate variability (HRV). HRV studies the variability ... -
Quadrasense : immersive UAV-based cross-reality environmental sensor networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Quadrasense explores futuristic applications in environmental sensing by integrating ideas of cross-reality with semi-autonomous sensor-aware vehicles. The cross-reality principals of telepresence, augmented reality, and ... -
Quadratic forms : harmonic transformations and gradient curves
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1980) -
A quadratic regulator-based heuristic for rapidly exploring state space
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Kinodynamic planning algorithms like Rapidly-Exploring Randomized Trees (RRTs) hold the promise of finding feasible trajectories for rich dynamical systems with complex, non-convex constraints. In practice, these algorithms ... -
The quadratic Zeeman effect in hydrogen
