Autonomous Trading Strategies For Dynamic Energy Markets, Moinul Morshed Porag Chowdhury Jan 2020

Autonomous Trading Strategies For Dynamic Energy Markets, Moinul Morshed Porag Chowdhury

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

With increasing energy demand and an intermittent supply of renewable energy sources, our current energy grid needs a transformation towards a more robust, reliable energy trading architecture. The smart grid promises this architecture as the future of the present energy market, where traders will use digital technologies to automate the management of power delivery. It will improve many issues of the current energy grid such as sustainable, clean, renewable, reliable and secure energy supply, customer participation in markets, distributed generation, and transparency in energy trading. Using autonomous trading agents, we can bridge several dynamic energy markets and ensure an efficient …


Glacier Segmentation In Satellite Images For Hindu Kush Himalaya Region, Bibek Aryal Jan 2020

Glacier Segmentation In Satellite Images For Hindu Kush Himalaya Region, Bibek Aryal

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Climate change poses a risk to individuals whose livelihoods depend on the health of glacier ecosystems. Monitoring glaciers in the Himalayan Hindu Kush (HKH) region is of high importance especially when we consider the impact of recent climate change on them. Our work aims to provide an automated method to outline glaciers using machine learning techniques and publicly available remote sensing imagery.In this work, we present ways to delineate glaciers from Landsat-7 imagery using various machine learning and computer vision techniques. The multi-step methodology that we present in this work is generalizable across different types of satellite and overhead imagery, …
