A novel interpolation-based model for the computation of the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) is presented. The model enables GLCM computation for any...
We demonstrate optical and electrical property enhancement of solar cells using a variety of dielectric nano-resonator array coatings. First, we study close...

Photocurrent generation of methylammonium lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3) hybrid perovskite solar cells is observed at the nanoscale using near-field scanning...
The existence of tactile afferents sensitive to slip-related mechanical transients in the human hand augments the robustness of grasping through secondary force...
Validation of quantitative X-ray powder diffraction measurements traditionally involved compounding test mixtures of known phase compositions. Validation is...
The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to connect and manage an unprecedented number of heterogeneous devices that are not designed to interoperate as a system...

Data sent over the Internet can be monitored and manipulated by intermediate entities in the data path from the source to the destination. For unencrypted...
The surface of coatings and plastics is the first target in any degradation process initiated by ultraviolet (UV) radiation or mechanical stress (via scratch...
This paper reports on quantification and mitigation of the inefficiency of selfish investment in network recovery from Susceptible Infected Susceptible (SIS)...
Recent research has demonstrated benefits of replication of requests with canceling, which initiates multiple concurrent replicas of a request and uses the...
Blockchain based cryptocurrencies are usually unmanaged, distributed, consensus-based systems in which no single entity has control. Managed cryptocurrencies...

We report on recent progress in the development of our focal plane imaging system for the detection and characterization of small fabrication errors in...
Additive manufacturing (AM) has enabled the production of complex geometries such as conformal lattices, topology optimized shapes, and organic structures...
The publication of the latest edition of ISO 1101 in 2017 is a landmark event in the development of ISO tolerancing standards. It represents an important...

The 2017 NIST language recognition evaluation (LRE) was held in the autumn of 2017. Similar to the past LRE's, the basic task in LRE17 was language detection...
Economic and convenience benefits of interconnectivity drive current explosive emergence and growth of networked systems. However, as recent catastrophic...
Constrained least-squares fitting has gained considerable popularity among national and international standards committees as the default method for...
