Cooperative Protocols for Relay and Interference Channels with Half-Duplex Constraint
(University of Waterloo, 2010-09-02)Enabling cooperation among nodes of a wireless network can significantly reduce the required transmit power as well as the induced intra-network interference. Due to the practical half-duplexity constraint of the cooperating ... -
Evolutionary Design for Computational Visual Attention
(University of Waterloo, 2003)A new framework for simulating the visual attention system in primates is introduced. The proposed architecture is an abstraction of existing approaches influenced by the work of Koch and Ullman, and Tompa. Each stage ... -
An Information-Theoretic Exploration of Multi-Body Fluid-Structure Interactions
(University of Waterloo, 2019-06-19)Fluid-structure interactions are highly complex and difficult to resolve using classical physics tools. Recently, information theory has been proposed as an alternative for exploring these often highly non-linear and complex ... -
On Capacity-Achieving Input Distributions to Additive Vector Gaussian Noise Channels Under Peak and Even Moment Constraints
(University of Waterloo, 2021-08-25)We investigate the support of the capacity-achieving input distribution to a vector-valued Gaussian noise channel. The input is subject to a radial even-moment constraint and, in some cases, is additionally restricted ... -
SIVO: Semantically Informed Visual Odometry and Mapping
(University of Waterloo, 2018-11-12)Accurate localization is a requirement for any autonomous mobile robot. In recent years, cameras have proven to be a reliable, cheap, and effective sensor to achieve this goal. Visual simultaneous localization and mapping ...
