Deep Learning For Task-Based Image Quality Assessment In Medical Imaging, Weimin Zhou

McKelvey School of Engineering Graduate Student Theses & Dissertations

It has been advocated to use objective measures of image quality (IQ) for assessing and optimizing medical imaging systems. Objective measures of IQ quantify the performance of an observer at a specific diagnostic task. Binary signal detection tasks and joint signal detection and localization (detection-localization) tasks are commonly considered in medical imaging. When optimizing imaging systems for binary signal detection tasks, the performance of the Bayesian Ideal Observer (IO) has been advocated for use as a figure-of-merit (FOM). The IO maximizes the observer performance that is summarized by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. When signal detection-localization tasks are considered, …

Holistic Control For Cyber-Physical Systems, Yehan Ma

McKelvey School of Engineering Graduate Student Theses & Dissertations

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are transforming industries through emerging technologies such as wireless networks, edge computing, and machine learning. However, IIoT technologies are not ready for control systems for industrial automation that demands control performance of physical processes, resiliency to both cyber and physical disturbances, and energy efficiency. To meet the challenges of IIoT-driven control, we propose holistic control as a cyber-physical system (CPS) approach to next-generation industrial automation systems. In contrast to traditional industrial automation systems where computing, communication, and control are managed in isolation, holistic control orchestrates the management of cyber platforms (networks and computing platforms) …

Stellar Classification Of Folded Spectra Using The Mk Classification Scheme And Convolutional Neural Networks, John Magee

Dissertations

The year 1943 saw the introduction of the Morgan-Keenan (MK) classification scheme and this replaced the existing Harvard Classification scheme. Both stellar classification scheme are fundamentally grounded in the field of spectroscopy. The Harvard Classification scheme classified stars based on stellar surface temperature. The MK Classification scheme introduced the concept of a luminosity class that is intrinsically linked to the surface gravity of a star. Temperature and luminosity class values are estimated directly from the stellar spectrum.

Machine learning is a well-established technique in astronomy. Traditionally, a spectrum is treated as a one-dimensional sequence of data. Techniques such as artificial …
