MS Thesis Defense: Multipath Beam Steering for OFDM Systems Ibrahim Farah Location: Zoom Abstract: OFDM systems prove effective in combatting the frequency-selective fading, dispersive response of underwater acoustic channels. Coherent symbol detection requires estimation of this channel response at each receiving element, typically done through tap-based models (Least Squares) or path-based models (Path Identification). This […]

PhD Dissertation Defense: Human Grasp Intent Inference and Multimodal Control in Prosthetic Hands Mo Han Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Upper limb and hand functionality is critical to many activities of daily living and the amputation of one can lead to significant functionality loss for individuals. From this perspective, advanced prosthetic hands of the future are […]

ECE Seminar: Reliable Machine Learning in Feedback Systems Sara Dean Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Machine learning techniques have been successful for processing complex information, and thus they have the potential to play an important role in data-driven decision-making and control. However, ensuring the reliability of these methods in feedback systems remains a challenge, since classic […]

PhD Proposal Review: Distributed Data and Energy Beamforming with Unmanned Vehicles for Wireless IoT : A Systems Perspective Subhramoy Mohanti Location: Teams Meeting Abstract: The pervasive deployment of the wireless Internet of Things (IoT) has given rise to heterogeneous sensors and small form-factor computing devices in homes, offices, public spaces, manufacturing floors, among others. Such […]

PhD Dissertation Defense: Visual Navigation Applications in Low Contrast Environments: Multi Sensor Iceberg Mapping Vikrant Shah Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Most approaches to visual navigation make multiple assumptions about the scenes being imaged. There are implicit assumptions about the scene being predominantly static and the availability of well illuminated, texture rich, objects in the scene. […]

ECE Seminar: Reinforcement Learning Perspective to Data-Driven and Model-Based Experimental Design Mahdi Imani Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Design and decision-making are pervasive in most practical systems including smart grids, transportation, manufacturing, healthcare, and smart homes. Accurate system modeling is difficult in most systems/processes due to the complicated system dynamics, multi-physics and multiple time scales involved […]
