Phenotyping is used to develop new strains of plants, understand plant-affecting diseases (phyto-pathology) and evaluate the effects of various substances on plants. A growing variety of sensors and sensor technology is used to gather data used for phenotyping, in a non-destructive manner, and this overall process of data acquisition and analysis is being automated, leading […]

This project will develop artificial intelligence techniques to identify characteristics in audio samples that relate to real-world descriptions of sounds. When humans listen to various samples of sounds of a same category, they intuitively affix qualitative words to these sounds. The objective of the research is to find ways to let an AI algorithm find […]

In this project the human body movement and its balance will be studied, and artificial intelligence-based algorithms will be developed in order to detect the body movement and the posture in real-time. Specific camera technology will be utilized in order to gather required data of the human movement and the environment. The data will then […]

Recently, more researchers and developers are looking towards HTML5 mobile applications as a solution for targeting multiple devices and platforms. This is because the browser is becoming the default platform and its de facto standards are HTML5 and JavaScript. In the enterprise, compelling HTML5 mobile web applications that promise to offer the same functionality as […]

Security is a huge concern in our digital society, especially with distributed systems like the Internet. Services deployed on such systems are frequently subject to malicious attacks; thus, verifying and enforcing its security is essential. One way of doing this is by using models like finite state automata. Past literature has explored how a system […]

The 12-week research work will make a novel contribution to a large project called the Model Integration (MINT) framework, which in turn will improve the integration of scientific models in Environmental and Earth Sciences. Furthermore, this contribution to the MINT project will be a combination of best practices in reproducible research, Machine Learning, and domain […]

The WaferBoard™ is a “waffle iron” for prototyping electronic systems. In the envisioned concept, the user simply place components in the WaferBoard™ and close the cover. ”WaferBoard™ then senses the component contacts and recognizes the components and interconnects them. The prototype is now ready to be brought up and run. The candidate will do research […]

Performance assurance activities are an essential step in the release cycle of large software systems. However, prior research on software performance often does not consider the impact on end users; while developers may miss performance issues that lowers the satisfaction rate of end users, or the effort is spent on fixing those issues that may […]
