To enhance robotic grasping capabilities, we are developing new contactless fingertip sensors to measure distance in close proximity and simultaneously detect the type of material and the interior structure. These sensors are referred to as…
Measuring device is proposed for determining a linear dimension. The device comprises three associated longitudinally moving parts one of which is a scale. The integer part of the device reading is being taken from the standard millimeter…
Collaborative filtering, a widely-used recommendation technique, predicts a user's preference by aggregating the ratings from similar users. As a result, these measures cannot fully utilize the rating information and are not suitable for…
A distance measure is presented between two unitary propagators of quantum systems of differing dimensions along with a corresponding method of computation. A typical application is to compare the propagator of the actual (real) process…
Bladder volume measurement is critical for early detection and management of lower urinary tract dysfunctions. The current gold standard is invasive, and alternative technologies either require trained personnel or do not offer medical…
Product distribution matching (PDM) is proposed to generate target distributions over large alphabets by combining the output of several parallel distribution matchers (DMs) with smaller output alphabets. The parallel architecture of PDM…
Euclidean distance matrices (EDM) are matrices of squared distances between points. The definition is deceivingly simple: thanks to their many useful properties they have found applications in psychometrics, crystallography, machine…
Spectroscopy is the most fundamental instruments in almost every field of modern science. Conventional spectrometer is based on the dispersion elements such as various gratings. An alternative way is based on the filters such as…
The dispersion measure (DM) is one of the key attributes of radio pulsars and Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). There is a mistaken view that the DM is an accurate measure of the column density of electrons between the observer and the source. To…

Quantum-dense metrology (QDM) constitutes a special case of quantum metrology in which two orthogonal phase space projections of a signal are simultaneously sensed beyond the shot noise limit. Previously it was shown that the additional…
In many robotics applications, it is necessary to compute not only the distance between the robot and the environment, but also its derivative - for example, when using control barrier functions. However, since the traditional Euclidean…
Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) are measurement devices long used in transmission systems and today even more essential for a proper monitoring of distribution grids. The expected massive penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs)…
Phasor measurement units (PMUs) provide a high-resolution view of the power system at the locations where they are placed. As such, it is desirable to place them in bulk in low voltage distribution circuits. However, the power consumption…
Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) is the primary tool for exploring nanoscale functionality, yet standard single-frequency operation is fundamentally limited, because the dynamic tip-sample interaction is mathematically underdetermined. While…
