For our research we wanted to examine the issues with the nitrogen cycle and how that was related to chemical fertilizers. This ended up turning into a closer look at composting and how this can be used to combat both environmental issues and food waste. We conducted our work through some basic field work and […]
B44: Predicting the Transmissibility of Emerging SARS-CoV-2 Variants With Bioinformatic Approaches
SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative agent of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Highly infectious variants have emerged over the course of the pandemic as the virus continued to replicate and mutate. Key mutations often take place in the spike protein, and can increase the likelihood of an interaction between the virus and the human […]
A58: Neighbor Discovery in a Multi-Transceiver Free-Space-Optical Ad Hoc Network
Through our research in wireless communication, we present a novel neighbor discovery method for a wireless ad hoc network network where each node is equipped with a Free-Space-Optical (FSO) transceivers capable of electronic beam switching. Directional neighbor discovery can be very challenging due to the requirement of strict line-of-sight (LOS) alignment and can result in […]
A36-P: Oblivious Neighbor Discovery in Direction Multi-Transceiver Networks
In a network of multiple devices, neighbor discovery is the process in which the individual devices make their existence known to other devices in the network in order to begin communicating with one another. The neighbor discovery protocol is an essential part of wireless networks used for communication between devices. In our design, we are […]
C37-P: Internet of Things Botnet Detection Using Network Flow Analysis
Our general research area is cybersecurity in the Internet of Things(IoT). The Internet of Things proposes an unprecedented opportunity as everything can be interconnected; however, it also raises countless security risks. Adversely, a network of bots can be deployed to attack a variety of systems and devices, causing malicious activity. We are working on creating […]
A30: 3D Window Identification for Architectural Modeling from Images
Our general research area is computer vision and computer graphics, and our research problem is 3D reconstruction of window for architectural modeling from window images. The 3D reconstruction of window from images required the learning of 3D properties and viewpoint interpolation of window images. 3D representation will includes PBR mapping, depth mapping and viewpoint interpolation […]
