An embedding technique to determine ττ backgrounds in proton-proton collision data
(IOP Publishing, 2019-06)An embedding technique is presented to estimate standard model tau tau backgrounds from data with minimal simulation input. In the data, the muons are removed from reconstructed mu mu events and replaced with simulated tau ... -
Emergent emotion via neural computational energy conservation on a humanoid robot
(IEEE, 2013)This paper presents our initial work on how emotion based behaviors may emerge through computational mechanisms. We hold that in addition to basic emotions such as anger and fear that serves bodily well being of the organism, ... -
Emerging optical wireless communications-advances and challenges
(IEEE, 2015-09)New data services and applications are emerging continuously and enhancing the mobile broadband experience. The ability to cope with these varied and sophisticated services and applications will be a key success factor for ... -
Emotion as an emergent phenomenon of the neurocomputational energy regulation mechanism of a cognitive agent in a decision-making task
(Sage, 2021-02)Biological agents need to complete perception-action cycles to perform various cognitive and biological tasks such as maximizing their wellbeing and their chances of genetic continuation. However, the processes performed ... -
Enabling difference-based dynamic partial self reconfiguration for large differences
(IEEE, 2013)This paper presents a new Dynamic Partial Self Reconfiguration (DPSR) flow for Xilinx FPGAs. Leveraging the Xilinx FPGA Editor and PlanAhead tools, we provide two implementation approaches that enable partial reconfiguration ... -
Enabling smart environments through scalable policy reasoning and Internet of Things
(Wiley, 2019-04)In this paper, we discuss how to combine ontology-based policy reasoning mechanisms with in-use Internet of Things applications to customize and automate device behaviors. We discuss how the policy framework can be extended ... -
End-of-life materials used as supplementary cementitious materials in the concrete industry
(MDPI, 2020-04)A sustainable solution for the global construction industry can be partial substitution of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) by use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) sourced from industrial end-of-life (EOL) ... -
End-to-end performance of mixed RF/FSO transmission systems
(IEEE, 2013-11)In this paper, we consider a heterogenous scenario where free-space optical (FSO) and radio-frequency (RF) technologies are deployed together as a dual-hop communication system, and we investigate the end-to-end outage ... -
Energetic reasoning revisited: application to parallel machine scheduling
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2008-08)We consider the problem of minimizing makespan on identical parallel machines subject to release dates and delivery times. We present several new feasibility tests and adjustment techniques that consistently improve ... -
Energy aware trajectory optimization of solar powered AUVs for optical underwater sensor networks
(IEEE, 2022-12)Visible light communication (VLC) provides an alternative underwater wireless connectivity solution with its low latency and high data rates albeit at relatively shorter distances in the order of tens of meters. In the ... -
Energy calibration and resolution of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
(2013-09)The energy calibration and resolution of the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) of the CMS detector have been determined using proton-proton collision data from LHC operation in 2010 and 2011 at a centre-of-mass energy of ... -
Energy harvesting and magneto-inductive communications with molecular magnets on vibrating graphene and biomedical applications in the kilohertz to terahertz band
(IEEE, 2017-09)Magneto-inductive (MI) Terahertz (THz) wireless channels provide significant theoretical performances for MI communications (MIC) and wireless power transmission (WPT) in nanoscale networks. Energy harvesting (EH) and ... -
Energy optimized routing with directional antennas and tagging for multimedia sensor networks
(IEEE, 2018-04-24)Several routing optimization strategies have been proposed in research for Wireless Multimedia Sensor Network (WMSN), because of unavailability of the external power source. In this paper, a global energy optimization ... -
Energy sensing strategy optimization for opportunistic spectrum access
(IEEE, 2012-06)This paper introduces a correlator-based energy sensing strategy for opportunistic spectrum access in a slow, flat-fading channel. The correlator provides weighted energy accumulation in time. We assume that the noise ... -
Energy-based sidesway collapse fragilities for ductile structural frames under earthquake loadings
(Elsevier, 2018-11)In assessing the likelihood of structural collapse under strong earthquake motions, uncertainties in structural properties and ground motions can be incorporated by use of a probabilistic analysis framework in conjunction ... -
Engineering with and for light absorption and scattering: a quarter century of experimental research at RTL
(Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti, 2011)Characterization of particles requires detailed understanding of light interaction with homogeneous/inhomogeneous and regular/irregular shaped particles, or fractallike structures, within optically thin or thick media. ... -
Enhanced energetic reasoning-based lower bounds for the resource constrained project scheduling problem
(Elsevier, 2012-05)We present new and effective lower bounds for the resource constrained project scheduling problem. This problem is widely known to be notoriously difficult to solve due to the lack of lower bounds that are both tight and ... -
Enhanced MRC for decode-and-forward cooperative diversity systems
(IEEE, 2012-10)In this letter, we propose a novel enhanced maximal-ratio combining (E-MRC) scheme for multi-branch decode-and-forward (DF) cooperative diversity systems consisting of a source, a destination, and multiple relays. This ... -
