A Genetic Algorithm Approach For Optimized Routing, Pavithra Gudur Apr 2010

A Genetic Algorithm Approach For Optimized Routing, Pavithra Gudur

Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations

Genetic Algorithms find several applications in a variety of fields, such as engineering, management, finance, chemistry, scheduling, data mining and so on, where optimization plays a key role. This technique represents a numerical optimization technique that is modeled after the natural process of selection based on the Darwinian principle of evolution. The Genetic Algorithm (GA) is one among several optimization techniques and attempts to obtain the desired solution by generating a set of possible candidate solutions or populations. These populations are then compared and the best solutions from the set are retained. Subsequently, new candidate solutions are produced, and the …

Determining The Utility Of Technology For Education, Brian Spencer Dillon Apr 2010

Determining The Utility Of Technology For Education, Brian Spencer Dillon

Computational Modeling & Simulation Engineering Theses & Dissertations

There is a substantial debate concerning the place of technology in education. This debate has been going on over every technology introduced through at least three millennia although the modern version takes place in journal articles. Technology, in the general sense, is already in the educational arena 1n ways which have become so commonplace that we hardly question them today. More modern technologies, however, meet perpetual resistance in achieving their potential. This paper calls into question the most recent trend in research and suggests a new research paradigm which focuses not only on student achievement, but on a variety of …


Expression Invariant Face Recognition Using Shifted Phase-Encoded Joint Transform Correlation Technique, Trisha Ahmed Apr 2010

Expression Invariant Face Recognition Using Shifted Phase-Encoded Joint Transform Correlation Technique, Trisha Ahmed

Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations

A new face recognition algorithm using a synthetic discriminant function based shifted phase-encoded fringe-adjusted joint transform correlation (SDF-SPFJTC) technique is proposed. The dark region in an input image is enhanced by using a nonlinear technique named ratio enhancement in gaussian neighborhood (REIGN). Histogram equalization and Gaussian smoothing are then performed to the enhanced face images and the synthetic discriminant function (SDF) image before they are subjected to the joint transform correlation process. The two distinct correlation peaks produced on extreme ends of the SPFJTC plane signifies the recognition of a potential target. A post processing step utilizes the peak-to-clutter ratio …


Embedding Gps Data Into Speech Signal, Kagan Can Apr 2010

Embedding Gps Data Into Speech Signal, Kagan Can

Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations

Communication between deployed troops is very important on a battlefield. The real time knowledge of the location of the communicating patter is also very important in many situations because if you do not know the exact position of your units you cannot give correct orders. A minor error in an order can cause fatal results or lead to defeat. In many cases the position of the units is given through the speech channel by simply speaking the coordinates of the location. This can cause misunderstandings due to misinterpretation of the speech and makes it unsafe to rely on such communications. …

Cs 499/699: Logic For Computer Scientists, Pascal Hitzler Apr 2010

Cs 499/699: Logic For Computer Scientists, Pascal Hitzler

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

Logic is often called the Calculus of Computer Science. Indeed, logic permeates most areas of Computer Science in one way or the other, sometimes more prominently, and sometimes as motivational or formal underpinning. Examples are database schema, program verification, semantics of programming languages, computer security, artificial intelligence, cognitive robotics, Web information systems, computer hardware circuitry, or modeling in software engineering.


Cs 740: Algorithms, Complexity And The Theory Of Computability, Pascal Hitzler Apr 2010

Cs 740: Algorithms, Complexity And The Theory Of Computability, Pascal Hitzler

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

What does it mean to say that some computational problem is intrinsically more difficult than some other problem? How can I claim that I have found a good algorithmic solution? The study of these questions gives rise to an area of Theoretical Computer Science called Complexity Theory, which is based on a systematic and thorough formal study of the complexity of problems with respect to their algorithmic solvability, using Turing machines as main conceptual tool. In this class, we will understand how problem and algorithmic complexity is measured, and discuss some of the main complexity classes arising from this study. …
