Design Of Distortion-Invariant Correlation Filters Using Supervised Learning, Samuel Peter Kozaitis, Rufus H. Cofer, Wesley E. Foor

Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Faculty Publications

We designed binary phase-only filters from a training set of images using a statistical approach. We forced images into clusters and designed filters to recognize objects from that cluster. We report on results obtained by computer simulation comparing the performance of filters to recognize objects from clusters of one and two classes.


Photovoltaic-Powered Water Pumping-Design, And Implementation: Case Studies In Wyoming, Badrul H. Chowdhury, S. Ula, K. Stokes Jan 1993

Photovoltaic-Powered Water Pumping-Design, And Implementation: Case Studies In Wyoming, Badrul H. Chowdhury, S. Ula, K. Stokes

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A photovoltaic-powered water pumping project comprising of several rural electric cooperatives and their customers is described in detail. A number of remote water pumping installations in the state of Wyoming, USA, are currently operating as a result of this project. The design, installation and performance monitoring of these systems are discussed. In general, it can be stated that PV-powered water pumping in this state has been a cost-effective alternative to distribution line extension or other conventional means of water pumping. Customer satisfaction, in terms of functional adequacy and low maintenance requirements of these systems, is high. The benefit for the …
