The pressure for Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRF) operators to efficiently treat wastewater is greater than ever because of the water crisis, produced by the climate change effects and more r…
Wave-driven desalination systems are an innovative solution to the global freshwater crisis, leveraging the complementary characteristics of seawater reverse osmosis and wave energy converters. Howeve…
Origami-inspired robotic grippers have shown promising potential for object manipulation tasks due to their compact volume and mechanical flexibility. However, robust capture of objects with random sh…
Monitoring physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) in daily life is essential for characterizing individual health and metabolic status. Although indirect calorimetry provides gold-standard PAEE m…
Approximating collision-free space is fundamental to robot planning in complex environments. Convex geometric representations, such as polytopes and ellipsoids, are widely employed due to their struct…
As with every emerging technology, new tools in the hands of artists reshape the nature of artwork creation. Current frameworks for robotics in arts deploy the robot as an autonomous creator or a coll…
Weak constitutive fluctuations in dispersive subsurface media can induce distributed clutter that reshapes the observation structure of ground-penetrating radar (GPR). This paper analyzes this effect …
Monitoring sea states across the offshore wind farm areas is essential to keep their structures safe, efficiently operate the systems, and assess the environmental effects of wind turbines. Convention…
The escalating climate crisis and ecosystem degradation demand intelligent, low-cost sensors capable of robust, long-term monitoring in real-world environments. Absolute dissolved oxygen (DO) concentr…
Electrooculogram (EOG) is a non-invasive bio-signal generated by the potential difference between the retina and cornea during eye movement, and is widely utilized in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) …
Biomolecular systems are often modeled with partially known nonlinear stochastic dynamics, making state and parameter estimation a central challenge. While Kalman filtering techniques are widely used …
Directional Selective Fixed-Filter Active Noise Control (D-SFANC) can effectively attenuate noise from different directions by selecting the suitable pre-trained control filter based on the Direction-…
AI and data-driven models have large potential for data assimilation applications by creating fast and accurate forecasts. Their tendency to produce spurious inaccurate, nonphysical results -- halluci…
Radar-Inertial Odometry (RIO) based on the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) relies on accurate extrinsic calibration between the radar and the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and is sensitive to disturban…
Indoor positioning is an essential technology for a wide range of applications in GNSS-denied environments, including indoor navigation and IoT systems. Combining convolutional neural networks (CNNs) …
AI is increasingly used to accelerate engineering design by improving decision-making and shortening iteration cycles. Application to marine propeller design, however, remains challenging due to scarc…
Ensuring safety is a critical requirement for autonomous systems, yet providing formal guarantees for nominal controllers remains a significant challenge. In this paper, we propose a modular sampling-…
In many applications of state estimation, the process noise is colored; this case is addressed by applying the standard Kalman filter (KF) to dynamics that are augmented with the coloring dynamics. Th…
Satellite constellation design requires optimizing orbital parameters across multiple satellites to maximize mission specific metrics. For many types of mission, it is desirable to maximize coverage a…
Most autonomous driving safety benchmarks use time-to-collision (TTC) to assess risk and guide safe behaviour. However, TTC-based methods treat risk as a one-dimensional closing problem, despite the i…
