Fernández Navarro, Sergio (Date of defense: 2012-06-22)
This thesis focuses on the problem of 3D acquisition using coded structured light (CSL). In CSL, a projected pattern impinges artificial texture onto the object surface, increasing the number of correspondences in the ...
Vidal Garcia, Eduard (Date of defense: 2019-11-28)
Autonomous underwater vehicles are used nowadays in many applications. One of the applications is mapping of a particular area of the ocean. Quen the robot needs to cover the area of interest and no prior knowledge of ...
Vallicrosa Massaguer, Guillem (Date of defense: 2018-11-15)
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) true autonomy capabilities in complex unknown environments, have not yet been fully achieved because of the lack of online algorithms that can solve fundamental problems such as ...
Hernández Vega, Juan David (Date of defense: 2017-10-26)
The most common applications of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) include imaging and inspecting different kinds of structures on the sea. Most of these applications require a priori information of the area or structure ...
Torrent-Fontbona, Ferran (Date of defense: 2015-06-23)
The smart grid offers a new infrastructure for the management of energy demand and generation towards a sustainable future. Accordingly, there is the objective to provide consumers with a response capacity to stimuli of ...
Mas Baixeras, Albert (Date of defense: 2011-03-30)
Aquesta tesi presenta un nou mètode pel disseny invers de reflectors. Ens hem centrat en tres temes principals: l’ús de fonts de llum reals i complexes, la definició d’un algoritme ràpid pel càlcul de la il•luminació del ...
García Fernández, Ismael (Date of defense: 2012-10-24)
The main question explored in this thesis is how to define novel parallel random-access data structures for surface and image spatial data with efficient construction, storage, and query memory access patterns. Our main ...
Hernàndez Bes, Emili (Date of defense: 2012-06-15)
This thesis addresses the path planning problem for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) using homotopy classes to provide topological information on how paths avoid obstacles. Looking for a path within a homotopy class ...
Gamero Argüello, Fco. Ignacio (Francisco Ignacio) (Date of defense: 2012-06-26)
The main focus of situation assessment is to decide on the adequacy of process behaviour with respect to specifications. When is not possible to have a mathematical model to represent the system operation, other non-model-based ...
Bonaventura Brugués, Xavier (Date of defense: 2015-07-10)
Viewpoint selection has been an emerging area in computer graphics for some years, and it is now getting maturity with applications in fields such as scene navigation, volume visualization, object recognition, mesh ...
García Jaramillo, Maira Alejandra (Date of defense: 2011-07-22)
In this thesis I propose a novel method to estimate the dose and injection-to-meal time for low-risk intensive insulin therapy. This dosage-aid system uses an optimization algorithm to determine the insulin dose and ...
Carvalho, Adalberto Dias de (Date of defense: 2018-07-12)
The present study assumes an interdisciplinary nature and privileges the undertaken assumption as hypothesis that there is a relation of anthropological nature of the human beings with the small islands, which, by conditioning ...
Pueyo Vallet, Oriol (Date of defense: 2016-01-15)
Computer Graphics applications community has big interest on urban modeling and especially on designing complex and realistic cities and buildings. This topic is interesting for film, video game and urbanism industries. ...
Carrillo Peña, Paulo Nicolás (Date of defense: 2019-07-10)
This research proposes a solution for the reduction of part of the aforementioned barriers, through the design of the consensus protocol called Proof of Reputation (PoR) that is based on the Blockchain technology of Ethereum, ...
Ahmad, Sayyar (Date of defense: 2024-01-18)
Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is a chronic metabolic disorder caused by destruction of the insulin producing beta cells in the islets of Langerhans within the pancreas due to an autoimmune reaction. T1D is distinguished by elevated ...
Colomer, Joan (Colomer Llinàs) (Date of defense: 1998-07-28)
L'objectiu general d'aquest treball és trobar i mostrar una eina que permeti obtenir una<br/>representació dels senyals procedents de sistemes dinàmics adequada a les necessitats<br/>dels sistemes de Supervisió Experta de ...
Carrera Viñas, Arnau (Date of defense: 2017-07-21)
The interest in performing underwater tasks using Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) has been growing over the past few years. In this thesis, a flexible framework for underwater interventions using a Learning ...
Beneyto Tantiña, Aleix (Date of defense: 2020-12-02)
Type 1 diabetes is a serious disease that must be monitored and controlled artificially by supplying exogenous insulin to the body. The artificial pancreas (AP) is a closed-loop system that resulted from integrating an ...
Ghose, Soumya (Date of defense: 2012-10-19)
Prostate segmentation in trans rectal ultrasound (TRUS) and magnetic resonance images (MRI) facilitates volume estimation, multi-modal image registration, surgical planing and image guided prostate biopsies. The objective ...
Segovia Silvero, Juan (Date of defense: 2011-12-15)
This thesis studies robustness against large-scale failures in communications networks. If failures are isolated, they usually go unnoticed by users thanks to recovery mechanisms. However, such mechanisms are not effective ...
