Thermal Management Considerations For Lunar Polar Micro-Rovers
Meeting ID: 940 0396 4889 Passcode: 906118 Abstract: This research addresses the significant and unprecedented challenge of thermal regulation for lunar polar micro-rovers. These are distinct from priors by way of very small size, mass, and power, but particularly for the extremes of ambient environment in which they must operate. On the lunar poles, rovers experience temperatures [...]

Title: Efficient Methods for Model Performance Inference Abstract: A key challenge in neural architecture search (NAS) is quickly inferring the predictive performance of a broad spectrum of neural networks to discover statistically accurate and computationally efficient ones. We refer to this task as model performance inference (MPI). The current practice for efficient MPI is gradient-based methods [...]

Title: Addressing Time-series Signal Quality in Healthcare Data Abstract: Healthcare data time-series signal quality assessment (SQA) plays a vital role in the accuracy and reliability of machine learning algorithms to analyze health metrics. However, these signals are often corrupted with different kinds of noises and artifacts, including Baseline Wander, Muscle Artifacts, Powerline Interference, and Equipment Failure. This [...]

Object Pose Estimation without Direct Supervision
Abstract: Currently, robot manipulation is a special purpose tool, restricted to isolated environments with a fixed set of objects. In order to make robot manipulation more general, robots need to be able to perceive and interact with a large number of objects in cluttered scenes. Traditionally, object pose has been used as a representation to [...]
