Adaptation and Control State Detection Techniques for Brain-Computer Interfaces
… practical BCI system - adaptation and control state detection. Adaptation is the ability of the BCI system to adapt to incoming data, and control state detection refers to its ability to determine whether the user is actively giving input. A co-training based approach is proposed for …

Relaxed mental state detection using the Emotiv Epoc and Adaptive Threshold Algorithms
… detect when the subject is in a relaxed state. Recently, inexpensive and relatively easy to use EEG systems, with multiple electrodes, have become available at prices comparable to cellular phones or game machines. This project’s purpose is to investigate the feasibility of real-time …

Tools for engineering multicellular systems through cell sorting and cell state detection
… systems by detecting and rewriting the cell state. We first develop a method that enables the creation of a synthetic cell state to control morphogenesis. Using inducible expression of recombinases, we show this approach can induce a cell to commit to one of two mutually exclusive cell …

Issues in on-line optimisation
… for on-line Optimisation. Techniques for steady-state detection, static data reconciliation, gross error detection and steady-state optimisation are presented and implemented separately and within an on-line optimisation methodology. It has been acknowledged for some time now that the estimation …

Modeling Radiation Damage in Nanostructured Ferritic Alloys: Helium Bubble Precipitation on Oxide Nanofeatures
… of the KMC model, new insights into steady-state detection concepts were also found. A new type of steady-state detection (SSD) algorithm is described. Additionally, a method of forecasting the number of data points needed to make an accurate determination of steady-state, a 'predicting the …

Integration of Advanced Optics for Trapped Ion Quantum Information Processing
… Even with the advent of scalable ion traps, detection of an individual ion trapped in a high vacuum poses a challenge. The internal state of the ion chosen for a quantum bit can be measured via exposure to a probe beam that causes one state to scatter light (a "bright" state), but not the …

Immobilized Luminol as a Chemiluminescent Reagent
… emphasis on the development of a totally solid-state detection scheme for peroxide based on the luminol reaction.

Optimisation techniques for advanced process supervision and control
… developed and used in conjunction with steady-state optimisation and model predictive control schemes. The inaccuracy of process data due to measurement errors can be considerably reduced by data reconciliation techniques. This in turn improves process knowledge and control system performance. …

Improved Friction and Dynamics Estimation in Legged Robots
… testing in simulation and through more accurate state detection for model-based control architectures. This work built upon current research in the field of robot system dynamics by investigating the effect of using single-layer feed-forward neural nets to model non-linear friction forces and …

Scalable trap technology for quantum computing with ions
… quantum system, such as the electronic or spin state of a trapped atomic ion. Physics experiments with single atomic ions acting as "quantum bits" have demonstrated many of the ingredients for a quantum computer. But to perform useful computations these experimental systems will need to be …

Development of the Visible Light Photon Counter for Applications in Quantum Information Science
… if the QE was improved in the ultraviolet (e.g., state detection of trapped ions) and the infrared (e.g., long-distance quantum cryptography). This thesis describes the development of the ultraviolet photon counter (UVPC) and the infrared photon counter (IRPC), which are modified versions of the …

Slurry, Solution and Speciation Analysis By Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry
… for slurry and solution samples using solid state detection and optimisation algorithms. A range of certified reference materials have been analysed using optimum conditions and results were in good agreement with certified values. Slurry nebulisation has been used for the first time in the …
