Cosmic Ray Particles Images With Orca-Ii Erg, George Mcnamara
Cosmic Ray Particles Images With Orca-Ii Erg, George Mcnamara
George McNamara
Cosmic ray particles image series acquired using a Hamamatsu ORCA-II ERG scientific grade CCD camera, cooled to -60 C. Each image is a consecutive 600 second (10 minute) exposure time with no light to the camera.
While processing the data, I discoverd that the background changed around planes 25 and 227 (see Excel file and jpeg screenshots), so I also processed only planes 025-227 (203 planes total, 2030 minutes, 33.83 hours). the CCD industry "rule of thumb" for a "typical" CCD sensor (i.e. 1/3" CCD) is that one cosmic ray particle strikes a sensor approximately every 30 seconds (assuming not …

Ambiguous Data Association And Entangled Attribute Estimation, Randy Paffenroth, David Trawick, Philip Du Toit, Gregory Norgard
Ambiguous Data Association And Entangled Attribute Estimation, Randy Paffenroth, David Trawick, Philip Du Toit, Gregory Norgard
Randy C. Paffenroth
This paper presents an approach to attribute estimation incorporating data association ambiguity. In modern tracking systems, time pressures often leave all but the most likely data association alternatives unexplored, possibly producing track inaccuracies. Numerica's Bayesian Network Tracking Database, a key part of its Tracker Adjunct Processor, captures and manages the data association ambiguity for further analysis and possible ambiguity reduction/resolution using subsequent data. Attributes are non-kinematic discrete sample space sensor data. They may be as distinctive as aircraft ID, or as broad as friend or foe. Attribute data may provide improvements to data association by a process known as Attribute …
Detecting Clustered Chem/Bio Signals In Noisy Sensor Feeds Using Adaptive Fusion, Randy Paffenroth, Scott Lundberg, Chris Calderon
Detecting Clustered Chem/Bio Signals In Noisy Sensor Feeds Using Adaptive Fusion, Randy Paffenroth, Scott Lundberg, Chris Calderon
Randy C. Paffenroth
Chemical and biological monitoring systems are faced with the challenge of detecting weak signals from contam- inants of interest while at the same time maintaining extremely low false alarm rates. We present methods to control the number of false alarms while maintaining power to detect; evaluating these methods on a fixed sensor grid. Contaminants are detected using signals produced from underlying sensor-specific detection algorithms. By learning from past data, an adaptive background model is constructed and used with a multi-hypothesis testing method to control the false alarm rate. Detection methods for chemical/biological releases often depend on specific models for release …

Distributed Pattern Detection In Cyber Networks, Randy Paffenroth, Philip Du Toit, Louis Scharf, Anura Jayasumana, Vidarshana Banadara, Ryan Nong
Randy C. Paffenroth
In this paper we describe an approach for the detection and classication of weak, distributed patterns in sensor networks. Of course, before one can begin development of a pattern detection algorithm, one must rst dene the term "pattern", which by nature is a broad and inclusive term. One of the key aspects of our work is a denition of pattern that has already proven eective in detecting anomalies in real world data. While designing detection algorithms for all classes of patterns in all types of networks sounds appealing, this approach would almost certainly require heuristic methods and only cursory statements …
Clay Fabric And Mass Physical Properties Of Surficial Marine Sediment Near The Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill, Andrew Head, Richard H. Bennett, Jessica R. Douglas, Kenneth J. Curry
Clay Fabric And Mass Physical Properties Of Surficial Marine Sediment Near The Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill, Andrew Head, Richard H. Bennett, Jessica R. Douglas, Kenneth J. Curry
Kenneth J. Curry
Surficial sediment was obtained on the RV Cape Hatteras Cruise (2010) from the seafloor at a water depth of 1570 meters located at latitude 28°44'20.16"N and longitude 88°20'24.96"W in close proximity to the Deepwater Horizon well, Gulf of Mexico. Preliminary clay nano- and microfabric observation using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) depicted a sediment rich in clays and organic matter (OM) especially in the upper 2 cm subbottom. Initial analysis of TEM micrographs depicted a high porosity clay sediment. Initial study of the mass physical properties revealed water content ωt = 67.32 – 67.28% (percent total mass), porosity n= 84.1 …
R Code: A Non-Iterative Implementation Of Tango's Score Confidence Interval For A Paired Difference Of Proportions, Zhao Yang
Zhao (Tony) Yang, Ph.D.
For matched-pair binary data, a variety of approaches have been proposed for the construction of a confidence interval (CI) for the difference of marginal probabilities between two procedures. The score-based approximate CI has been shown to outperform other asymptotic CIs. Tango’s method provides a score CI by inverting a score test statistic using an iterative procedure. In the developed R code, we propose an efficient non-iterative method with closed-form expression to calculate Tango’s CIs. Examples illustrate the practical application of the new approach.
