Indoor fire disasters pose severe challenges to autonomous search and rescue due to dense smoke, high temperatures, and dynamically evolving indoor environments. In such time-critical scenarios, multi…
Operational near-real-time monitoring of Earth's surface deformation using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) requires processing algorithms that efficiently incorporate new acquisitions…
Missions such as the Ingenuity helicopter have shown the advantages of using novel locomotion modes to increase the scientific return of planetary exploration missions. Legged robots can further expan…
Planetary exploration missions require robots capable of navigating extreme and unknown environments. While wheeled rovers have dominated past missions, their mobility is limited to traversable surfac…
Interactive dynamic simulators are an accelerator for developing novel robotic control algorithms and complex systems involving humans and robots. In user training and synthetic data generation applic…
We present a framework for experimentally linking speech production and hearing. Using this approach, we describe experimental results, that lead to the concept that sounds made by different individua…
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs) have risen to the forefront of wireless communications research due to their proactive ability to alter the wireless environment intelligently, promising imp…
This paper presents an innovative method that can be used to produce deterministic channel models for 5G industrial internet-of-things (IIoT) scenarios. Ray-tracing (RT) channel emulation can capture …
Industrial environments are considered to be severe from the point of view of electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation. When dealing with a wide range of industrial environments and deployment setups, ra…
In clinical practice, many diagnosis tasks rely on the identification of cells in histopathology images. While supervised machine learning techniques require labels, providing manual cell annotations …
In this report, we present the system design, operational strategy, and results of coordinated multi-vehicle field demonstrations of autonomous marine robotic technologies in search-for-life missions …
The controller for a quadrotor working in severe environment is developed in this study. Here, the severe environment indicates the temperature-varying air near the volcano. The controller overcomes t…
In this paper, an end-to-end based LSTM scheme is proposed to address the problem of volcano event localization without any a priori model relating phase picking with localization estimation. It is wo…
As sadly known, forest fires are part of a set of natural disasters that have always affected regions of the world typically characterized by a tropical climate with long periods of drought. However, …
We introduce a new real-time pipeline for Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and Visual Inertial Odometry (VIO) in the context of planetary rovers. We leverage prior information of the locat…
In this paper we propose a 2D deep residual Unet with 104 convolutional layers (DR-Unet104) for lesion segmentation in brain MRIs. We make multiple additions to the Unet architecture, including adding…
We present a novel high-fidelity real-time neural vocoder called VocGAN. A recently developed GAN-based vocoder, MelGAN, produces speech waveforms in real-time. However, it often produces a waveform t…
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a critical sensing technology that is notably independent of the sensor-to-target distance and has numerous cross-cutting applications, e.g., target recognition, mapp…
Support Vector Machines (SVM) is a computational technique which has been used in various fields of sciences as a classifier with k-class classification capability, k being 2,3,4, etc. Seismograms of …
In this article, the framework and architecture of Subsurface Camera (SAMERA) is envisioned and described for the first time. A SAMERA is a geophysical sensor network that senses and processes geophys…
