Designs and methodologies for post-silicon timing characterization
(2013-05)Timing analysis is a key sign-off step in the design of today's chips, but technology scaling introduces many sources of variability and uncertainty that are difficult to model and predict. The result of these uncertainties ... -
Measuring the validity of self-monitoring heart rate and activity tracking wearables
(2016-05)PURPOSE: To examine the validity of wearable physical activity tracking devices. METHODS: Participants were 62 students. Participants wore a Polar HR chest strap, Actigraph GT3X+ Acceleremetor, Apple Watch, Fitbit Charge ... -
Mocking embedded hardware for software validation
(2016-08)This report makes the case for unit testing embedded systems software, a procedure traditionally found in application software development. While the challenges of developing and executing unit tests on embedded software ... -
Quantifying grasp quality using an inverse reinforcement learning algorithm
(2017-05)This thesis considers the problem of using a learning algorithm to recognize when a mechanical gripper and sensor combination has achieved a robust grasp. Robotic hands are continuously evolving with finer motor control ... -
Toward a predictive model of tumor growth
(2011-05)In this work, an attempt is made to lay out a framework in which models of tumor growth can be built, calibrated, validated, and differentiated in their level of goodness in such a manner that all the uncertainties associated ... -
Validating the 1-cm orbit
(2015-12)Determination of three dimensional orbit accuracy to the 1-cm level is a difficult problem for even today's most well-tracked satellites. Gravity fields that are extracted from low earth orbit (LEO) satellites operating ...
