Estimation and calibration algorithms for distributed sampling systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Traditionally, the sampling of a signal is performed using a single component such as an analog-to-digital converter. However, many new technologies are motivating the use of multiple sampling components to capture a signal. ... -
Estimation and control of a multi-vehicle testbed using GPS Doppler sensing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002) -
Estimation and control of flexible space structures for autonomous on-orbit assembly
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The ability to autonomously assemble large structures in space is desirable for the construction of large orbiting solar arrays, interplanetary spacecraft, or space telescopes. One technique uses free-flying satellites to ... -
Estimation and detection with chaotic systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
Estimation and hierarchical control of market-driven electric power systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Estimation and modeling of multidimensional non-stationary stochastic processes : application to the remote sensing of atmospheric temperature fields
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1986) -
Estimation and Optimization in Online Marketplaces
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-05)The emergence of e-commerce business models (such as Airbnb and Amazon) brings opportunities and challenges to their operations. This thesis studies several estimation and optimization problems within the online platform ... -
Estimation and prediction of time-dependent origin-destination flows
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996) -
Estimation and tactical allocation of airport capacity in the presence of uncertainty
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Major airports in the United States and around the world have seen an increase in congestion-related delays over the past few years. Because airport congestion is caused by an imbalance between available capacity and demand, ... -
Estimation and tracking of rapidly time-varying broadband acoustic communication channels
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This thesis develops methods for estimating wideband shallow-water acoustic communication channels. The very shallow water wideband channel has three distinct features: large dimension caused by extensive delay spread; ... -
Estimation and variational methods for gradient algorithm generation.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1977) -
Estimation for Poisson processes with applications in optical communication.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1971) -
Estimation method for the thermochemical properties of polycyclic aromatic molecules
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Polycyclic aromatic molecules, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have attracted considerable attention in the past few decades. They are formed during the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbon fuels and are ... -
The estimation of Arctic ice thickness from ambient noise
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Estimation of axial compressor body forces using three-dimensional flow computations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This thesis presents an examination of body force distributions in a single stage low speed compressor. The body force distributions are developed using two different computational procedures, an axisymmetric streamline ... -

Estimation of cardiovascular indices by analysis of the arterial blood pressure signal
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This thesis introduces novel mathematical algorithms that track changes in stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), and total peripheral resistance (TPR) by analysis of the arterial blood pressure (ABP) signal. The algorithms ... -
Estimation of cardiovascular parameters from non-invasive measurements
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003) -
Estimation of channelized features in geological media using sparsity constraint
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In this thesis, a new approach is studied for inverse modeling of ill-posed problems with spatially continuous parameters that exhibit sparseness in an incoherent basis (e.g. a Fourier basis). The solution is constrained ...
