Detection, Tracking, And Classification Of Aircraft And Birds From Multirotor Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems, Chester Valentine Dolph
Detection, Tracking, And Classification Of Aircraft And Birds From Multirotor Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems, Chester Valentine Dolph
Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The ability for small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) to safely operate beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) is of great interest to governments, businesses, and scientific research. One critical element for sUAS to operate BVLOS is the capability to avoid other air traffic. While many aircraft will be cooperative and broadcast their locations using Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B), it is expected that many aircraft will remain non-cooperative – meaning they do not communicate position or flight plan to other aircraft. Avoiding mid-air collisions with non-cooperative aircraft is a critical limitation to widespread sUAS flying BVLOS. Examples of non-cooperative traffic …
Emotion Detection Using An Ensemble Model Trained With Physiological Signals And Inferred Arousal-Valence States, Matthew Nathanael Gray
Emotion Detection Using An Ensemble Model Trained With Physiological Signals And Inferred Arousal-Valence States, Matthew Nathanael Gray
Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
Affective computing is an exciting and transformative field that is gaining in popularity among psychologists, statisticians, and computer scientists. The ability of a machine to infer human emotion and mood, i.e. affective states, has the potential to greatly improve human-machine interaction in our increasingly digital world. In this work, an ensemble model methodology for detecting human emotions across multiple subjects is outlined. The Continuously Annotated Signals of Emotion (CASE) dataset, which is a dataset of physiological signals labeled with discrete emotions from video stimuli as well as subject-reported continuous emotions, arousal and valence, from the circumplex model, is used for …
Machine Learning Classification Of Digitally Modulated Signals, James A. Latshaw
Machine Learning Classification Of Digitally Modulated Signals, James A. Latshaw
Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
Automatic classification of digitally modulated signals is a challenging problem that has traditionally been approached using signal processing tools such as log-likelihood algorithms for signal classification or cyclostationary signal analysis. These approaches are computationally intensive and cumbersome in general, and in recent years alternative approaches that use machine learning have been presented in the literature for automatic classification of digitally modulated signals. This thesis studies deep learning approaches for classifying digitally modulated signals that use deep artificial neural networks in conjunction with the canonical representation of digitally modulated signals in terms of in-phase and quadrature components. Specifically, capsule networks are …
