VMASC Publications

Recent advances in the integration of high-speed mobile networks and real-time IoT devices have facilitated in building of smart warehouses, where a set of beacons and Internet of Things (IoT) devices (or source nodes) can monitor the status of various physical processes in a time-critical way. In real-time status monitoring systems, like smart warehouses, quantifying the freshness of the Internet of Things (IoT) data based on the age of information (AoI) metrics becomes quite crucial. As source nodes are battery-constrained, a balanced trade-off between AoI minimization and preservation of source node battery energy is essential. In this paper, in a …

Faithful Narratives From Complex Conceptual Models: Should Modelers Or Large Language Models Simplify Causal Maps, Tyler J. Gandee, Philippe J. Giabbanelli

VMASC Publications

(1) Background: Comprehensive conceptual models can result in complex artifacts, consisting of many concepts that interact through multiple mechanisms. This complexity can be acceptable and even expected when generating rich models, for instance to support ensuing analyses that find central concepts or decompose models into parts that can be managed by different actors. However, complexity can become a barrier when the conceptual model is used directly by individuals. A ‘transparent’ model can support learning among stakeholders (e.g., in group model building) and it can motivate the adoption of specific interventions (i.e., using a model as evidence base). Although advances in …

We evaluated five techniques: a baseline, Simple Moving Average, Median filter, Hampel filter, and Kalman filter. For each technique, we conducted systematic experiments across time windows (360 and 720 min) that reflect real-world industrial inspection cycles, along with five prediction offsets (up …

Stack Bonding In Pentacene And Its Derivatives, Craig A. Bayse

Chemistry & Biochemistry Faculty Publications

Understanding the nature of π-stacking interactions is important to molecular recognition, self-assembly, and organic semiconductors. The stack bonding order (SBO) model of π-stacking has shown that the conformations of dimers occur when the combinations of monomer MOs are overall stack bonding in character. DFT calculations show that minima found on the potential energy surface for the π-stacked dimers of pentacene and perfluoropentacene occur when the dimer MOs are constructed from combinations of monomer MOs with an allowed SBO. An ex-amination of the MOs of π-stacked dimers extracted from X-ray structures of alkynyl derivatives like TIPS-pentacene pack at one or more …

Identification Of Π-Stacking Motifs In Naphthalene Diimides Via Solid-State Nmr, Jennifer E. Mejia, Hannah E. Butler-Au, Nalaya E. Thompson, Karcher D. Goodman, Elizabeth R. Zengel, Robert D. Pike, Jingdong Mao, Craig A. Bayse

Chemistry & Biochemistry Faculty Publications

Organic electronics, featuring π-conjugated small molecules and polymers, have gained significant attention for their potential in flexible, lightweight devices. However, characterization of the ordered, π-stacking domains within these materials using microscopy or X-ray diffraction (XRD) is challenging with complex systems or when crystallography is impractical. This study applied 1D ¹³C multiple cross-polarization magic angle spinning (multiCP/MAS) and 2D ¹H-¹³C heteronuclear correlation (HetCor) solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) to systematically characterize π-stacking motifs in a series of N,N'-dialkyl naphthalene diimides (NDIs). These techniques were shown to distinguish between the electronic environments attributed to different π-stacking motifs adopted in these NDIs, such …

Study Of Deep Neural Network Trained With Salient, Compressed Medical Video Data For Enhanced Predication, Aileen Sengupta

Electrical Engineering Dissertations - Archive

The rapid growth of surgical video analysis presents a need for efficient deep learning models for surgical training, while reducing the need for excessive image and video image storage. Traditional training approaches typically rely on uniformly compressed video data, instead of selectively preserving the most surgically relevant regions. This dissertation investigates the impact of training deep neural networks (DNNs), both convolutional and transformer-based architectures, on saliency-guided, differentially compressed surgical video sequences. The study systematically evaluates how such compression influences prediction accuracy, computational efficiency and storage requirements. Experimental results demonstrate that models trained on ROI-focused compressed data combined with motion vectors …

Hardware Implementation Of An Efficient Frequency Comb Generator For Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors, Frank Atobrah Danso

Open Access Master's Theses

The frequency comb generator is an essential component in the readout of superconducting detectors. This component is responsible for generating the resonant frequencies necessary to detect photon interaction with the detectors. This component however has not received the much needed attention in terms of readout systems optimization. Conventional implementations rely on either inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) engines, which scale poorly in power with increasing frequency resolution requirement but allow flexible tone updates, or lookup tables (LUTs), which demand large memory for high frequency resolution.

Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) are superconducting detectors which have gained significant interest for cryogenic …

Tracking Control Of A String Actuated Soft Trunk Robot Using State-Space Modeling, Jacob Trivisonno

Open Access Master's Theses

Soft robots, primarily composed of compliant materials, exhibit highly complex and nonlinear dynamics, making precise control a significant challenge. Traditional control methods often struggle with these complexities, requiring more advanced and data-driven methods. In our previous work, “Automatic Control of a Soft Trunk Robot Actuated by Strings” [1], a proportional controller was developed to drive the steady-state tracking error to zero. While this method was effective, it required time-consuming manual tuning and was not easily adaptable to physical modifications of the robot.

To address these limitations, this research implements gain-scheduled feedback control with state-space models calculated through a multiple linear …

High-Performance Computational Kernels For Algorithm-System Co-Design In Machine Learning: Enabling Efficient Gcn Training And Llm Inference Serving., Shakya D. Jayakody Arachchige

Graduate Thesis and Dissertation post-2024

The rapid advancement of machine learning, from Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) to transformer-based Large Language Models (LLMs), continues to expose fundamental limitations in memory efficiency, scalability, and system reliability. GCNs are critical for domains such as biomedical modeling, social networks, and recommendation systems, yet their reliance on sparse general matrix–matrix multiplication (SpGEMM) makes them highly sensitive to GPU memory constraints and irregular access patterns. As graph data scales, out-of-core computation becomes inevitable, but existing systems are hindered by I/O bottlenecks and underutilized GPU resources. Our contribution with AIRES demonstrates how algorithm–system co-design can alleviate these challenges: by introducing block-wise data …

EEG signals were collected from 100 participants using a Neurosky Mindset sensor at the FP1 (prefrontal) location, with each subject performing nine standardized cognitive tasks such as breathing, memory recall, and mathematical problem-solving. Hypnosis was applied not as a filtering method but as a behavioral protocol to standardize subject conditions and minimize physiological and environmental noise. The EEG signals were sampled at 128 Hz and analyzed using KHM clustering with K=4K = 4K=4, resulting in a Silhouette Score …

Stable Numerical Solution Of An Elliptic Pde Inverse Problem Subject To Incomplete Boundary Conditions, Qasim Abd Ali Tayyeh

Knowledge Engineering and Data Science

This study addresses the challenging problem of solving inverse elliptic Partial Differential Equations (PDE) with incomplete boundary data, data available only on a part of the domain boundary. The aim is to develop a robust, effective numerical framework that consistently recovers parameters and/or sources from incomplete, ill-posed data. In the case of a variational problem discretized by the Finite Element Method (FEM) and solved by an adjoint-based optimization strategy, the framework uses Tikhonov regularization. Morozov's Discrepancy Principle is used to determine regularization parameters that achieve the best balance between accuracy and stability. Even with 5% noise in the measurement data, …

Video Comprehension Score (Vcs): A Metric For Long-Form Video Description Evaluation, Harsh Dubey

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Existing video description evaluation metrics fail to capture the long-range chronology and semantic alignment essential for long-form descriptions. An effective evaluation metric for long-form descriptions must (i) assess global thematic alignment, (ii) measure local semantic alignment, and (iii) evaluate chronological alignment while detecting corrupted content. We introduce Video Comprehension Score (VCS), a reference-based metric, which directly addresses these evaluation requirements through three components: Global Alignment Score for thematic alignment, Local Alignment Score for local semantic alignment, and Narrative Alignment Score for chronological alignment with adjustable tolerance. We evaluate VCS on two large-scale synthetic datasets designed to test corruption detection and …

Old, Flat, And Slow: Interior Greenland Snow And Ice Dynamics Revealed With Gnss, Derek James Pickell

Dartmouth College Ph.D Dissertations

The interior dry snow zone region of the Greenland Ice Sheet can no longer be confidently considered a reliably melt-free region, yet our ability to investigate and quantify the dynamic nature of this landscape is hindered by its remoteness. To overcome this challenge, this work describes a novel, low-cost, low-power GNSS (positioning) instrument that enables simultaneous measurements of (1) ice accumulation/ablation changes and (2) 3D ice flow. Deployed in a dense array, these GNSS instruments achieve similar performance to scientific-grade, commercial options (cm- to mm- precision), yet operate at < 60% of the power and < 34% of the hardware cost. Over a three year campaign, we analyze spatial and temporal patterns of accumulation in this region, using a technique called GNSS interferometric reflectometry (GNSS-IR). Observations with this technique show low bias and high precision relative to a validation study (-2.1 ± 2.9 cm), while we also demonstrate for the first time how GNSS-IR can reveal cm- to m- scale surface roughness, a critical yet often neglected measurement due to longstanding observational challenges. Patterns of accumulation show a spatial dependence linked to surface slope (~+0.7 mm w.e. km^-1 westward away from the divide) while surface roughness has a temporal dependence likely driven by wintertime high winds. Next, we combine GNSS-IR surface heights with the geodetic position time series of the antenna to derive surface elevation changes, which are compared to coincident ICESat-2 laser altimetry elevations. Observations of the surface show a millimeter-level relative bias and cm-level precision (-0.9 ± 3.8 cm) compared with the satellite altimeter, demonstrating for the first time that this technique is a viable ground-truthing method, while ICESat-2 performance has continued to exceed mission performance requirements. Finally, we examine station positioning through time to show a sensitivity to dynamic ice thinning and firn densification, two parameters than cannot be finely observed with space-based methods in this region. Together, these results provide the first ground‑based, high‑resolution picture of interior ice‑sheet change—capturing accumulation, roughness, surface elevation, and strain in one unified dataset. Our approach dramatically lowers logistical barriers, opening the interior of Greenland (and other remote regions) to sustained, quantitative monitoring at unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution.

Transformer-Based Symbolic Music Generation, Ben Buentello

Master’s Theses

This thesis investigates the capacity of transformer-based architectures to learn generalized musical patterns through symbolic generation. To support this exploration, a complete music generation pipeline was developed, beginning with the construction and classification of a large-scale dataset of over 170,000 MIDI files. The dataset was processed using rule-based heuristics and custom neural classifiers to separate tracks by musical function and contour. A novel tokenization scheme, MINTii, was introduced to encode musical information compactly through interval-based representations, reducing redundancy and promoting generalization. Using this infrastructure, a transformer model was trained to generate single-track melodic sequences. Its performance was evaluated through both …

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Simulating nonlinear classical dynamics on a quantum computer is an inherently challenging task due to the linear operator formulation of quantum mechanics. In this work, we provide a systematic approach to alleviate this difficulty by developing an explicit quantum algorithm that implements the time evolution of a second-order time-discretized version of the Lorenz model. The Lorenz model is a celebrated system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations that has been extensively studied in the contexts of climate science, fluid dynamics, and chaos theory. Our algorithm possesses a recursive structure and requires only a linear number of copies of the initial state …

The Effect Of Electrode Geometry On Excited Species Production In Atmospheric Pressure Air-Hydrogen Streamer Discharge, Shirshak Kumar Dhali, Stuart Reyes

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

When a gas is overvolted at or near atmospheric pressure, it results in a streamer discharge formation. Electrode geometries exert significant impact on the electrical breakdown of gases by altering the spatial profile of the electric field. In many applications the efficient generation of radicals is critical and is determined by the characteristics of the streamer discharge. We examine the effect of electrode geometry on the streamer characteristics and the production of radicals. This is performed for three different electrode geometries: plane–plane, pin–plane, and pin–pin. A two-dimensional rotationally symmetric fluid model is used for the streamer discharge simulation in the …
