Three Essays on Money Input and Time Input in Food Poverty Measurement and Healthy Eating Index
… of food and health by analyzing the money and time inputs in food, the food poverty measurement, and a corresponding health outcome. The second chapter extends the current food poverty measure in headcount and proposes a set of Foster, Greer, and Thorbecke (FGT) indices, which is commonly used …

Universal approximation of input-output maps and dynamical systems by neural network architectures
… such as sequence-to-sequence transformations or input-output characteristics of systems of differential equations. For discrete-time input-output maps having limited long-term memory, we prove universal approximation guarantees for temporal convolutional nets constructed using only a finite …

Probabilistic characterization and synthesis of complex driven systems
Real-world systems that have characteristic input-output patterns but don't provide access to their internal states are as numerous as they are difficult to model. This dissertation introduces a modeling language for estimating and emulating the behavior of such systems given time series data. As a …

Real-time control of a robot using brain activity
… The system interface will rely on a pseudo real-time input that is streaming from pre-recorded artefact-free electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The system consists of mainly of two computing units: a transmitter (Tx) and a receiver (Rx). Tx will process the EEG signal and send a classification …
