Modeling, Simulation and Visualization Student Capstone Conference

Maritime autonomy, specifically the use of autonomous and semi-autonomous maritime vessels, is a key enabling technology supporting a set of diverse and critical research areas, including coastal and environmental resilience, assessment of waterway health, ecosystem/asset monitoring and maritime port security. Critical to the safe, efficient and reliable operation of an autonomous maritime vessel is its ability to perceive on-the-fly the external environment through onboard sensors. In this paper, buoy detection for LiDAR images is explored by using several tools and techniques: machine learning methods, Unity Game Engine (herein referred to as Unity) simulation, and traditional image processing. The Unity Game …

Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference

Large software systems are implemented using many different programming languages and scripts, and consequently the dependencies between their components are very complex. It is therefore difficult to extract and understand these dependencies by solely analyzing the source code, so that failure risks can be detected accurately. On the other hand, it is a common practice for software engineers to keep track of process related metrics such as the number of times a component was maintained, with which other components it has been co-committed, whether the maintenance activity was a bug-fixing activity, and how many lines of source code have been …
