Sensorless ultrasound probe 6DoF pose estimation through the use of CNNs on image data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
Ultrasound probe pose estimation has many applications in medical practice and research. Currently, ultrasound probe pose estimation with respect to the human body requires the use of sensors attached to the ultrasound ...
Technoeconomic analysis of perovskite photovoltaic manufacturing for powering telecommunications Towers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
In recent years, metal halide perovskite solar cells have gained traction as a potential competitor to the mature silicon-based solar cells in terms of both cost and performance. Being a young technology, however, means ...
Designing an experimental platform for a split-classroom comparison study
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)
SimBio, an education-technology company, has created two new online question formats which are constrained enough to give students automatic feedback, but open enough to give students ample room for expression. The LabLib, ...
The BigDawg monitoring framework
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)
In this thesis, I designed and implemented a monitoring framework for the BigDawg federated database system which maintains performance information on benchmark queries. As environmental conditions change, the monitoring ...
Photon-efficient computational imaging with single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) arrays
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)
Single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) are highly sensitive photodetectors that enable LIDAR imaging at extremely low photon flux levels. While conventional image formation methods require hundreds or thousands of photon ...
Virus constructed iron phosphate lithium ion batteries in unmanned aircraft systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)
Since lithium ion batteries first became commercially available in 1991, they have been repeatedly improved, continually redefining just how much we can do with electronic devices. Today, battery powered Unmanned Aerial ...
Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) technology : current advancement and future development
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)
Ability to store data is one of the key utilities in modern computer. The memory industry grows as demand for denser, smaller, cheaper and faster memory device increases. The term memory has been used widely in computing ...
Telemedicine systems at intensive care units : identifying patients that benefit most
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
Telemedicine is an exciting development at the intersection of technology and medicine, which promises to improve health care systems and alleviate the workload on doctors and nurses alike at hospital intensive care units. ...
Custom and interactive environments in StarLogo Nova for computational modeling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
StarLogo Nova is an agent-based simulation and game programming application geared towards classroom learning. In many cases, StarLogo Nova can be an effective computational modeling tool, allowing students to apply their ...
Computational analysis of genomic data provides insight into cell sensitivity to BCNU-Induced DNA damage
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
The transcriptional response to DNA damage plays a critical role in cellular responses to exogenous stress, and is a key component of resistance to therapeutics in cancer cells. Understanding the underlying mechanisms, as ...
