Data-driven approaches to optical patterned defect detection

September 5, 2019
Author(s)
Mark-Alexander Henn, Hui Zhou, Bryan M. Barnes
Computer vision and classification methods have become increasingly popular in recent years due to ever-increasing computation power. While advances in semiconductor devices are the basis for this growth, few publications have probed the benefits of data

CHARACTERIZING ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF THE INJECTION MOLDING PROCESS

June 14, 2013
Author(s)
Jatinder Madan, Mahesh Mani, Kevin W. Lyons
Presently available systems for sustainability assessment do not fully account for aspects related to a product’s manufacturing. In an effort to make more sustainable decisions, today’s industry seeks reliable methods to assess and compare sustainability

Measures, Uncertainties, and Significance Test in Operational ROC Analysis

January 31, 2011
Author(s)
Jin Chu Wu, Alvin F. Martin, Raghu N. Kacker
In operational ROC (receiver operating characteristic) analysis of fingerprint-image matching algorithms on large datasets, the measures and their accuracies are investigated in the three scenarios: 1) the true accept rate (TAR) of genuine scores at a

Validation of Two-Sample Bootstrap in ROC Analysis on Large Datasets Using AURC

October 11, 2010
Author(s)
Jin Chu Wu, Alvin F. Martin, Raghu N. Kacker
Sampling variability can result in uncertainties of measures. The nonparametric two-sample bootstrap method has been used to compute uncertainties of measures in receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis on large datasets, such as the standard error

Index of Refraction of Air

February 16, 2001
Author(s)
Jack A. Stone Jr., Jay H. Zimmerman
These Web pages are intended primarily as a computational tool that can be used to calculate the refractive index of air for a given wavelength of light and given atmospheric conditions (air temperature, pressure, and humidity). The calculations are

Textile Composites: Modeling Strategies

January 1, 2001
Author(s)
S V. Lomov, G Huysmans, Y Luo, Richard~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Parnas, A Prodromou, I Verpoest, Frederick R. Phelan Jr.
Textile materials are characterised by the distinct hierarchy of structure, which should be represented by a model of textile geometry and mechanical behaviour. In spite of a profound investigation of textile materials and a number of theoretical models

Percolation Aspects of Cement Paste and Concrete - Properties and Durability

August 1, 2000
Author(s)
Edward J. Garboczi, Dale P. Bentz
Synopsis: Portland cement concrete is a composite material, where the matrix consists of portland cement paste. Cement paste forms from the hydration reaction of portland cement with water. The microstructure of cement paste changes drastically over a time

Design for Tolerance of Electro-Mechanical Assembles

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
Sudarsan Rachuri, Yadati Narahari, Kevin W. Lyons, M R. Duffey
Tolerancing decisions during the design of electromechanical products profoundly affect cost and quality. Existing approaches to tolerance analysis and synthesis entail detailed knowledge of geometry of the assemblies and are mostly applicable during
