Structure from Motion suggests that an object or scene’s three-dimensional structure can be determined from its observed two-dimensional motion. Human efforts, manifested in computer algorithms, try to mimic the ...

This thesis relates to the design, implementation and evaluation of statistical face recognition techniques. In particular, the use of Hidden Markov Models in various forms is investigated as a recognition tool and ...

In RF power transistor characterisation, the designer is confronted with low impedance measurements (typically from 1 Ohm to 12 Ohm). These transistors are contained in metal-ceramic packages of which the lead widths ...

Power system stability simulations are of growing importance for studying the operational integrity of modern power systems, especially in developing economies where generating and transmission capacity lead the demand ...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (ODFM) has gained considerable attention the past couple of years. In our modern world the need for faster data transmission is never-ending. OFDM modulation provides us with a ...

The Automatic Position Reporting System (APRS) is a well-established packet communication protocol that offers users a graphical position display system and a peer-to-peer textual message service. APRS is used in temporary ...

The next generation of small satellites will require significant onboard data processing and information extraction capabilities to keep up with industry demands. The need for value added information products is ...

Due to the expensive nature of high frequency measurements in the EMC (Electromagnetic Compatability) field, more affordable methods of measurement instrumentation and environments are investigated. Different calibration ...

This thesis presents the design and implementation of a Neutral-Point-Clamped (NPC) shunt Active Filter (AF) for non-linear loads. A NPC shunt AF is an attractive solution for AFs at the medium volage level, because it ...

Visually estimating three-dimensional position, orientation and motion, between an observer and a target, is an important problem in computer vision. Solutions which compute threedimensional movement from two-dimensional ...
