Over the past 5 years, the advent of echocardiographic screening for rheumatic heart disease
(RHD) has revealed a higher RHD burden than previously thought. In light of this global …

The global necessity to increase agricultural production from a steadily decreasing and
degrading land resource base has placed considerable strain on the fragile agro-ecosystems. …

Lung cancer is a major global health problem, as it is the leading cause of cancer-related
deaths worldwide. Major advances in the identification of key mutational alterations have led to …

An analysis of the forward I–V data of the Schottky barriers formed by Au, Ni and Cr on n-type
Si, and of two commercially available Schottky barrier diodes (Fairchild's FH-1100 and …

Deep Recurrent Neural Network architectures, though remarkably capable at modeling
sequences, lack an intuitive high-level spatio-temporal structure. That is while many problems in …

The increasing demands of energy storage resulted in the development of lithium based
batteries. But these batteries are struggling with high energy density and high power capacity …

We consider the task of depth estimation from a single monocular image. We take a
supervised learning approach to this problem, in which we begin by collecting a training set of …

We consider the problem of grasping novel objects, specifically objects that are being seen
for the first time through vision. Grasping a previously unknown object, one for which a 3-d …

We consider the problem of detecting robotic grasps in an RGB-D view of a scene containing
objects. In this work, we apply a deep learning approach to solve this problem, which …

This paper describes how damage propagation can be modeled within the modules of
aircraft gas turbine engines. To that end, response surfaces of all sensors are generated via a …
