Souto, Laiz (Date of defense: 2021-01-15)
This thesis presents the study and development of distinct data-driven techniques to support event detection, fault location, and resilience assessment towards enhancements in power systems. It is divided in three main ...
Mujahid, Omer (Date of defense: 2023-09-19)
Modeling biological systems has always been challenging given the complexity of the processes involved in them. Experts have been employing physiological models to approximate the dynamics of biological systems; however, ...
Rusek, Robert (Date of defense: 2017-05-24)
The thesis concentrates particularly on how to enhance space-use in the case of public facilities. This issue has been approached by repurposing existing facilities and introducing additional services, thereby creating ...

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic condition resulting from the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells due to an autoimmune process that may occur at any age, but tends to develop in childhood and ...
Quiroga Quiroga, Oscar Arnulfo (Date of defense: 2012-12-18)
This thesis proposes a formalism to analyse and automatically exploit sequences of events, which are related with faults occurred in power distribution networks and are recorded by power quality monitors at substations. ...
Leal Moncada, Yenny Teresa (Date of defense: 2013-07-30)
This dissertation focuses on the development and improvement of the minimally invasive continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGMS). This dissertation gives emphasis in solving the problem of the accuracy and reliability ...
Meneses Ortegón, Juan Pablo (Date of defense: 2023-06-20)
The development of any process handles data. These data are generated from information that in turn generates knowledge. The ideal is that this knowledge provides the process with added value that allows it to improve, ...
Bosch Rué, Anna (Date of defense: 2007-09-25)
L'increment de bases de dades que cada vegada contenen imatges més difícils i amb un nombre més elevat de categories, està forçant el desenvolupament de tècniques de representació d'imatges que siguin discriminatives quan ...
Flórez Díaz, Jorge Eliécer (Date of defense: 2008-12-10)
Las superfícies implícitas son útiles en muchas áreasde los gráficos por ordenador. Una de sus principales ventajas es que pueden ser fácilmente usadas como primitivas para modelado. Aun asi, no son muy usadas porque su ...
Pacheco Valls, Lluís (Date of defense: 2009-11-30)
Aquesta tesi està inspirada en els agents naturals per tal de planificar de manera dinàmica la navegació d'un robot diferencial de dues rodes. Les dades dels sistemes de percepció són integrades dins una graella d'ocupació ...
Vila Clarà, Oriol (Date of defense: 2024-01-29)
RGB-D cameras return images like an ordinary camera but in addition to color, depthmaps where each pixel value represents the distance to a point of the scene are also obtained. Although originally conceived for gaming and ...
Ferrer Mallorquí, Inès (Date of defense: 2016-06-17)
Complex systems are often subjected to uncertainties that make its model difficult, if not impossible to obtain. A quantitative model may be inadequate to represent the behavior of systems which require an explicit re ...

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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
