Accurate Treatments of Electronic Correlation: Phase Transitions in an Idealized One-Dimensional Ferroelectric and Modelling Experimental Quantum Dots
… with the Computational Electronics Group at the Beckman Institute, we have performed QMC calculations on realistically modelled quantum dots in the effective mass approximation. The potentials of these dots are determined using the FEM method to solve Poisson's equation and the effective mass is …

Computation cloud to enable high throughput neuroimaging
… for neuroimaging and deployed it to users of the Beckman Institute Bioimaging Center. This thesis aims to demonstrate the scientific advantage for neuroimaging from such a system, to serve as a guide for users and administrators, and to provide implementation details to other groups who may wish …

Development of machine-vision technology for inspection of railroad track
Railroad engineering practices and Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) regulations require track to be inspected for physical defects at specified intervals, which may be as often as thrice per week. These inspections are conducted visually by railroad track inspectors, but due to practical …
