Inertial sensor calibration plays a progressively important role in many areas of research among which navigation engineering. By performing this task accurately, it is possible to significantly increase general navigation performance by…
In general, the problem of non-rigid registration is about matching two different scans of a dynamic object taken at two different points in time. These scans can undergo both rigid motions and non-rigid deformations. Since new parts of the…
Fourier transform interferometers usually need a dedicated reference light to precisely track optical path difference changes. There are a few different ways to incorporate the reference light into the optical system. This paper conducted…
Although traditional cameras are the primary sensor for end-to-end driving, their performance suffers greatly when the conditions of the data they were trained on does not match the deployment environment, a problem known as the domain gap.…
A satellite navigation system for a safety critical application is required to provide an integrity alert of any malfunction; the probability that a navigation positioning error exceeds a given alert limit without an integrity alert is…
Scheduling surgeries is a challenging task due to the fundamental uncertainty of the clinical environment, as well as the risks and costs associated with under- and over-booking. We investigate neural regression algorithms to estimate the…
The alignment of optical systems is a critical step in their manufacture. Alignment normally requires considerable knowledge and expertise of skilled operators. The automation of such processes has several potential advantages, but requires…
The question tackled here is the time allocation of radars in a multitarget environment. At a given time radars can only observe a limited part of the space; it is therefore necessary to move their axis with respect to time, in order to be…
In this work, we address the problem of measuring and predicting temporal video saliency - a metric which defines the importance of a video frame for human attention. Unlike the conventional spatial saliency which defines the location of…
In current navigating platforms, the user's orientation is typically estimated based on the difference between two consecutive locations. In other words, the orientation cannot be identified until the second location is taken. This…
The ability to detect anomalies in time series is considered highly valuable in numerous application domains. The sequential nature of time series objects is responsible for an additional feature complexity, ultimately requiring specialized…
In wave propagation theories, many problems of multi-sensor systems utilize time delay in their solution in signal processing. This technique finds great utility in seismic exploration and static correction (low-velocity weathering), which…
One use of image processing is for medical equipment such as wound identification. This technology is carried out non-invasively by taking images so as to avoid direct touch with the wound thereby reducing the possibility of infection. The…
SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) seeks to provide a moving agent with real-time self-localization. To achieve real-time speed, SLAM incrementally propagates position estimates. This makes SLAM fast but also makes it vulnerable…
Tomography can be used to reveal internal properties of a 3D object using any penetrating wave. Advanced tomographic imaging techniques, however, are vulnerable to both systematic and random errors associated with the experimental…
We demonstrate precision enhancements in a timekeeping device at constant power and regardless of the operation frequency. Our timekeeping device is a laser-driven coupled-cavity system sustaining limit cycles. We quantify the precision of…
Precision contouring control is crucial in industrial machining processes, particularly for applications such as laser and water jet cutting, where contouring accuracy directly determines product quality. This paper presents a novel control…
We investigate methods for determining if a planar surface contains geometric deviations (e.g., protrusions, objects, divots, or cliffs) using only an instantaneous measurement from a miniature optical time-of-flight sensor. The key to our…
The problem of detecting the presence of a signal that can lead to a disaster is studied. A decision-maker collects data sequentially over time. At some point in time, called the change point, the distribution of data changes. This change…
Underwater sites are a harsh environment for augmented reality applications. Obstacles that must be battled include poor visibility conditions, difficult navigation, and hard manipulation with devices under water. This chapter focuses on…
