• Synchronized Swimming and Formation Control for Fish-inspired Underwater Vehicles 

  ghanem, paul (2019)

  Multi-vehicle underwater control has different applications in oceanographic sampling and water pollution monitoring. Previous work in this field generated control laws that stabilizes parallel and circular formations of ...

• Model Based Systems Engineering for a Typical Smartgrid 

  Ninawe, Omkar (2019)

  The complexity and heterogeneity of today’s large Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) is addressed by model based design. This class of systems is a direct consequence of our entry into the new era of systems characterized by ...

• Developments in Lagrangian Data Assimilation and Coupled Data Assimilation to Support Earth System Model Initialization 

  Sun, Luyu (2019)

  The air-sea interface is one of the most physically active interfaces of the Earth's environments and significantly impacts the dynamics in both the atmosphere and ocean. In this doctoral dissertation, developments are ...

• Rich and Scalable Models for Text 

  nguyen, thang dai (2019)

  Topic models have become essential tools for uncovering hidden structures in big data. However, the most popular topic model algorithm—Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA)— and its extensions suffer from sluggish performance ...

• Topics in Stochastic Optimization 

  Sun, Guowei N/A (2019)

  In this thesis, we work with three topics in stochastic optimization: ranking and selection (R&S), multi-armed bandits (MAB) and stochastic kriging (SK). For R&S, we first consider the problem of making inferences about ...
