"Machine learning approaches for classification of myriad underwater acoustic events over continental-shelf scale regions with passive ocean acoustic waveguide remote sensing" Abstract: Underwater acoustic data contain a myriad of sound sources. Among underwater acoustic events, marine mammal vocalization classification is one of the most challenging problems due to their transient broadband calls, high variation in […]
Location: ISEC 532 "Combining Classical and Learning-based Methods for Visual and Tactile Manipulation" Abstract: Robots that operate in dynamic and ever-changing environments need to make sense of their surroundings and act in them safely and efficiently. This requires the integration of multiple sensory modalities such as visual and tactile. Humans can naturally fuse different feedbacks from […]
"Multiphysics Simulation of Graphene Transistors for On-Chip Plasmonic THz Signal Generation and Modulation" Abstract: Terahertz communication is envisioned as a key technology not only for the next generation of macro-scale networks (e.g., 6G+), but also for transformative networking applications at the nanoscale (e.g., wireless nanosensor networks and wireless networks on chip). This proposal focuses on […]
"Techniques for the Modelling, Design, and Fabrication of Ultra-Wideband Dipole Arrays" Abstract: A novel set of techniques are proposed which advance the state of the art for the modelling, design, and fabrication of ultra-wideband dipole arrays. First, existing techniques and relevant topics in the field are introduced and summarized. These include equivalent circuit and Green’s […]
"AlScN material characterization for MEMS applications" Abstract: The increasing demand for data is pushing the MEMS industry to more performant and area-efficient systems to be used in IOT nodes as sensors and RF-components. In this market, AlN plays a pivotal role thanks to the piezoelectric properties accompanied with good stability over power and temperature in […]
Location: ISEC 532 "Physical Layer Design for Ultrabroadband Terahertz Communications: From Theory to Experiments" Abstract: Terahertz (THz)-band (0.1 THz to 10 THz) communication is envisioned as a key technology to meet the demand for faster, more ubiquitous wireless communication networks for the sixth generation (6G) of wireless systems and beyond. For many years, the lack of […]
"Exploring Micro-Machined Glass Shell Resonators For Sensor Application" Abstract: This work presents the exploration of the chip-scale glass blowing technique for novel sensing methods. On-chip microspherical glass shells (MSG) of hundreds of micrometers in diameter with ultra-smooth surfaces and sub-micrometer wall thicknesses have been fabricated and have been shown to sustain optical whispering gallery mode […]
