A signal processing framework for the analysis and application of chaotic systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Signal processing in a real-time three-dimensional acoustic imaging system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Signal processing in biological cells : proteins, networks, and models
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis introduces systematic engineering principles to model, at different levels of abstraction the information processing in biological cells in order to understand the algorithms implemented by the signaling pathways ... -
Signal processing in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the brain
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Signal Processing Techniques Applied to Biomedical Diagnostics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-02)An effective way to combat cancer and infectious disease in resource-poor settings is to implement rapid and accurate diagnostic tests that can be administered at the point of care (POC). Developing such miniaturized, ... -
Signal reconstruction from phase or magnitude
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1981) -
Signal reconstruction in distributed sampling systems with application to time-interleaved A/D converters
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)High-speed distributed sampling systems, such as time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters, are becoming increasing popular for many modern applications. Calibration is a serious challenge in the design of such systems. ... -
Signal recovery using cepstral smoothing in the shallow water environment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
Signal specificity amongst STAT1- and STAT3- inducing cytokines in the context of Th17 differentiation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)The adaptive immune response is very important for our survival in that it gives us the capability of detecting a wide variety of foreign material, allows for the elimination of pathogens, and provides memory to protect ... -
Signal transduction in human cells by metabolites derived from methionine and glucose
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021)Organisms sense nutrients to match physiological responses to their environment. The mechanistic Target of Rapamycin complex I (mTORC1) pathway integrates information from a wide range of nutrient inputs to appropriately ... -
Signal validation methods and architecture for EBR-II natuural circulation flowrate
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1985) -
Signal variation in single particle aerosol mass spectrometry
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Rapid and accurate detection of airborne micro-particles is currently an important problem in national security. One approach to such detection, bioaerosol mass spectrometry (BAMS), is currently under development at Lawrence ... -
Signaling at the neuromuscular synapse
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Signature Crossroads
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997)Signature Crossroads, an urban form that grows out of an street intersection, combines both the sense of "transit" and the sense of "destination." Such dual character gives Signature Crossroads a superiority over traditional ... -
Signature schemes and applications to cryptographic protocol design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Signature schemes are fundamental cryptographic primitives, useful as a stand-alone application, and as a building block in the design of secure protocols and other cryptographic objects. In this thesis, we study both the ... -
Signatures of hydrodynamic transport in an electron system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Electrons in strongly-correlated systems move in a neatly coordinated manner, in many ways resembling the movement of viscous fluids and leading to surprising collective behaviors. Here we explore how the hydrodynamic ... -
Signatures of the first stars in relics of the first galaxies
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)In the billion years following the big bang, the first stars and galaxies fundamentally transformed the universe. They polluted the universe with the first heavy elements, and they produced high energy photons that reionized ... -
Signed coded exposure sequences for velocity and shape estimation from a single photo
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this thesis, I analyze the benefits of signed coded exposure for velocity and shape detection of moving objects. It has been shown that coded exposures enhance deblurring of motion blurred photos [28]. However, these ... -
The significance of fairness/
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This dissertation is about fairness and the role it plays in political and personal morality. Specifically, I investigate when it is appropriate to rely on considerations of fairness to draw substantive conclusions about ... -
The significance of foreign exchange risk in the international real estate securities investment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Traditionally, international real estate investments are mainly conducted through direct investments in foreign properties. Due to the recent securitization and globalization trends in the real estate capital markets, the ...
