Enhanced Security Utilizing Side Channel Data Analysis, Michael Taylor
Enhanced Security Utilizing Side Channel Data Analysis, Michael Taylor
Computer Science and Engineering Theses and Dissertations
The physical state of a system is affected by the activities and processes in which it is tasked with carrying out. In the past there have been many instances where such physical changes have been exploited by bad actors in order to gain insight into the operational state and even the data being held on a system. This method of side channel exploitation is very often effective due to the relative difficulty of obfuscating activity on a physical level. However, in order to take advantage of side channel data streams one must have a detailed working knowledge of how a …

Context-Aware Sensing And Fusion For Structural Health Monitoring And Night Time Traffic Surveillance, Xinxiang Zhang
Electrical Engineering Theses and Dissertations
Rapid developments in computer vision technologies have been transforming many traditional fields in engineering and science in the last few decades, especially in terms of diagnosing problems from visual images. Leveraging computer vision technologies to inspect, monitor, assess infrastructure conditions, and analyze traffic dynamics, has gained significant increase in both effectiveness and efficiency, compared to the cost of traditional instrumentation arrays to monitor, and manually inspect civil infrastructures and traffic conditions. Therefore, to construct the next-generation intelligent civil and transportation infrastructures, this dissertation develops a comprehensive computer-vision based sensing and fusion framework for structural health monitoring and intelligent transportation systems. …

Learning Deep Architectures For Power Systems Operation And Analysis, Mahdi Khodayar
Electrical Engineering Theses and Dissertations
With the rapid increase in size and computational complexities of power systems, the need for powerful computational models to capture strong patterns from energy datasets is emerged. In this thesis, we provide a comprehensive review on recent advances in deep neural architectures that lead to significant improvements in classification and regression problems in the area of power engineering. Furthermore, we introduce our novel deep learning methodologies proposed for a large variety of applications in this area. First, we present the interval deep probabilistic modeling for wind speed forecasting. Incorporating the Rough Set Theory into deep neural networks, we create an …
