Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the investigation of two types of eye movements; smooth pursuit, and saccadic eye movement, each of which was analysed under normal condition, and then after the administration of alcohol. Parameters of interest in a selected range were measured using the novel approaches developed in this thesis and the results of a series of different tests compared. Much of the early work done in this area was based on minicomputers. Obviously, a microcomputer based system would be welcome because of costs, and the fact that they are readily available in many hospitals and heal

A collection of techniques, featured in my portfolio of compositions, which aim to support or bring about the re-emergence of musical ideas or objects in varied form. Chapter 1 observes the opposing approaches of Elliott Carter and Philip Glass towards musical repetition, and asserts my intention to use variation, or “varied repetition”, in order to place my own music at the centre of these two approaches. Compositional technique is then put forward as the means by which I intend to create varied repetition. I use Stravinsky’s rotational method as an example of such a technique. The introducti

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the leading reasons for treatment in primary healthcare. It is estimated that 50% of the female population in the UK will have least one occurrence of the infection in their lifetime. It is a debilitating condition and causes a variety of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The recommended practice for detecting a UTI is by analysing a urine specimen and culturing the sample for bacterial growth and antibiotic sensitivities. There are two main specimen collection methods: the midstream urine (MSU) and the catheter specimen of urine (CSU). The CSU is r

Abstract:
A large number of image registration techniques have been developed for various types of sensors and applications, with the aim to improve the accuracy, computational complexity, generality, and robustness. They can be broadly classified into two categories: intensity-based and feature-based methods. The primary drawback of the intensity-based approaches is that it may fail unless the two images are misaligned by a moderate difference in scale, rotation, and translation. In addition, intensity-based methods lack the robustness in the presence of non-spatial distortions due to different imaging

In particular, this process commonly has two associated events that are undesirable. First, scenarios are re-used over and over, which can reduce their effectiveness in training.

Infrared antennas are employed in sensing applications requiring specific spectral, polarization, and directional properties.

Validation of design models against measurements requires separation of these effects so that the response of the antenna-coupled sensor alone can be measured in a calibrated manner. Such validations

The goal of this thesis is to design and fabricate a DC-to-DC converter for use in high-voltage capacitor charging applications. The primary objectives include increasing the efficiency and reducing the cost of traditional methods used for this application. Traditional methods were not designed specifically for high-voltage capacitor charging and were thus very primitive and exhibited lower efficiency. Prior methods made use of a high voltage power supply and a current limiting resistor or control scheme. The power supply would often only operate efficiently at a single voltage value and would

Abstract:
The presence of millions of interconnected personal computing devices has given rise to a new class of decentralized networking applications, which are loosely labeled as peer-to-peer (P2P) applications. These P2P applications leverage resources such as processing cycles, storage, content, and network bandwidth available to the user devices, which are also known as peers. A number of current systems - SETI@home, Napster, BitTorrent, and Pastry - are examples of these emerging P2P systems. To fully realize the potential of the peer-to-peer technology, there is a need to define and provide a set

Abstract:
Recent research activities focused on improving the steady-state as well as the dynamic behavior of DC-DC converters for proper system performance, by proposing different design methods and control approaches with growing tendency to using digital implementation over analog practices. Because of the rapid advancement in semiconductors and microprocessor industry, digital control grew in popularity among PWM converters and is taking over analog techniques due to availability of fast speed microprocessors, flexibility and immunity to noise and environmental variations. Furthermore, increased int

University of Central Florida College of Engineering Thesis<br>The rapid advances in electronic imaging, storage, data compression telecommunications, and networking technology have resulted in a vast creation and use of digital videos in many important applications such as digital libraries, distance learning, public information systems, electronic commerce, movie on demand, etc. This brings about the need for management as well as delivery of video data. Organizing and managing video data, however, is much more complex than managing conventional text data due to their semantically rich and u

Abstract:
University of Central Florida College of Engineering Thesis<br>Of the vast number of algorithms used in modern computer image generation, most rely upon data bases comprised of polygons. This becomes a severe impediment when curved objects must be modeled and displayed with an acceptable level of speed and accuracy. A technique is needed to provide a means of modeling curved surfaces, storing them in a data base, and displaying them using existing algorithms. Tessellation is one methd of achieving such goals.<br>M.S.<br>Masters;<br>College of Engineering<br>Engineering<br>Engineering<br>51 p.<
