Automated understanding of data visualizations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)When a person views a data visualization (graph, chart, infographic, etc.), they read the text and process the images to quickly understand the communicated message. This research works toward emulating this ability in ... -
An automated verfication tool for expert systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996) -
Automated verification of model-based programs under uncertainty
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Highly robust embedded systems have been enabled through software executives that have the ability to reason about their environment. Those that employ the model-based autonomy paradigm automatically diagnose and plan ... -
Automated visual inspection of general curvature surfaces using Moiré interferometry
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988) -
Automated Visual Inspection of Lyophilized Products via Deep Learning and Autoencoders
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-09)Manual visual inspection of every sterile parenteral product for defects is costly, cumbersome, and inconsistent. Industry standard currently relies on a semi-automated method, but the percentage of vials that require ... -
Automated wavelength recovery for silicon photonics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)In 2020, 1Tb/s on-/off-chip communication bandwidth and ~100fJ/bit total energy in a point to point link is predicted by Moore's law for high performance computing applications. These requirements are pushing the limits ... -
An automated web-based searchable archive for implantable cardioverter defibrillator data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)This paper details the research, design, and implementation of a computer system built to archive electrograms and related patient data from implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) produced by Medtronic in particular. ... -
Automated, highly scalable RNA-seq analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)RNA-sequencing is a sensitive method for inferring gene expression and provides additional information regarding splice variants, polymorphisms and novel genes and isoforms. Using this extra information greatly increases ... -
Automatic 'Timed-Up and Go' (TUG) test segmentation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)The Timed-Up and Go test (TUG) is a well-known medical test that is used as an indicator of mental and physical health. I developed the TUG-Segmenter, an automatic segmentation tool that can divide recorded TUG test data ... -
Automatic 3D surface area measurement for vitiligo lesions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Vitiligo is a long term skin depigmentation disease that may result in psychological stress. Monitoring changes in vitiligo lesion area allows assessment of treatment efficacy and aids in clinical decision making. Currently ... -
Automatic 5-axis NC toolpath generation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)Despite over a decade of research, automatic toolpath generation has remained an elusive goal for 5-axis NC machining. This thesis describes the theoretical and practical issues associated with generating collision free ... -
Automatic acoustic guitar tuner
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Acoustic guitar musicians tune their instruments by using a conventional tuner. Individuals pluck the string and the conventional tuner indicates whether the note is sharp or flat. The musician then has to wind the string ... -
Automatic acoustic measurement optimization for segmental speech recognition
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996) -
Automatic acquisition and use of some of the knowledge in physics texts
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1991) -
Automatic acquisition of language models for speech recognition
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
The automatic allocation of tolerances through cost optimization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982) -
Automatic analysis and synthesis of controllers for dynamical systems based on phase-space knowledge
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992) -
Automatic analysis of medical dialogue in the home hemodialysis domain : structure induction and summarization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Spoken medical dialogue is a valuable source of information, and it forms a foundation for diagnosis, prevention and therapeutic management. However, understanding even a perfect transcript of spoken dialogue is challenging ... -
An automatic annotation system for audio data containing music
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999) -
Automatic application-specific optimizations under FPGA memory abstractions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)FPGA-based accelerators have great potential to achieve better performance and energy-efficiency compared to general-purpose solutions because FPGAs permit the tailoring of hardware to a particular application. This hardware ...
