In this study, we simulate the automatic control of an electric wheelchair for indoor Pac-Man-style navigation using solely thought commands. We delve into the decision-making mechanisms of an operational EEG-based brain computer interface that employs a visual oddball paradigm. We investigate strategies to enhance the efficiency of decision-making processes, aiming to accelerate response times wh

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of different Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) models for administering Propofol and Remifentanil, two critical agents in anesthesia. Initially, different PK models were introduced: one for Propofol based on the Schnider model and another for Remifentanil using the Minto model. Alternatively, both drugs were modeled using the Eleveld models. The P

Modern robotic perception is highly dependent on neural networks.It is well known that neural network-based perception can be unreliable in real-world deployment,especially in difficult imaging conditions.Out-of-distribution detection is commonly proposed as a solution for ensuring reliability in real-world deployment.Previous work has shown that normalizing flow models can be used for out-of-dist

This paper presents a comparison between a Itl-bit asynchronous SAR (ASAR) ADC and a 10-bit synchronous SAR (SSAR) ADC, both designed and simulated in a 22-nm FDSOI CMOS process. To further support the simulation results, the ASAR ADC has also been fabricated and measurements are pre-sented. As opposed to the abrupt SNDR collapse in the SSAR ADC, the SNDR of the ASAR ADC shows a more graceful deg-

Hybrid analog-digital beamforming stands out as a key enabler for future communication systems with a massive number of antennas. In this paper, we investigate the hybrid precoder design problem for angle-of-departure (AoD) estimation, where we take into account the practical constraint on the limited resolution of phase shifters. Our goal is to design a radio-frequency (RF) precoder and a base-ba

The anticipated introduction of multi-GHz channel bandwidths in 6G makes integrated passive baseband filters very attractive. This work presents techniques to obtain high stop-band attenuation in a compact 4.7-GHz 5th-order passive baseband filter. A lumped model of the filter inductors is derived, and a capacitive cancellation technique is proposed, along with techniques to reduce inductive coupl

Software analytics (SA) is frequently proposed as a tool to support practitioners in software engineering (SE) tasks. We have observed that several secondary studies on SA have been published. Some of these studies have overlapping aims and some have even been published in the same calendar year. This presents an opportunity to analyze the congruence or divergence of the conclusions in these studi

Clustering multiple motions from observed point trajectories is a fundamental task in understanding dynamic scenes. Most motion models require multiple tracks to estimate their parameters, hence identifying clusters when multiple motions are observed is a very challenging task. This is even aggravated for high-dimensional motion models. The starting point of our work is that this high-dimensionali

In this paper, we present a multipath-based simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithm that con-tinuously adapts mulitiple map feature (MF) models describing specularly reflected multi path components (MPCs) from flat surfaces and point-scattered MPCs, respectively. We develop a Bayesian model for sequential detection and estimation of interacting MF model parameters, MF states and mob

This paper presents millimeter-wave scattering from a building facade predominantly composed of windows. These windows are integrated into the walls, forming dihedral structures that reflect waves toward the incident angle. The scattered field resulting from the building facade is simulated using the two-bounce Geometrical-Physics (GO) method. We analyze the channel in power loss and arrival angle

An accurate description of the wireless channel is essential to the development of modern wireless systems. In order to mathematically model the propagation channel, one important prior step often done is high-resolution parameter estimation. The estimation accuracy of this step has a significant impact on how well the channel models can represent reality. In this paper, we address this by improvi

Distributed massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication is envisioned as one of the key paradigms of future MIMO systems. To investigate non-wide-sense stationarities (non-WSSs) in distributed massive MIMO channels, this paper first presents an indoor channel measurement campaign, where distributed arrays with a total of 128 elements were implemented. Then relying on the correlatio

Electromagnetic degrees of freedom are instrumental in antenna design, wireless communications, imaging, and scattering. A large number of degrees of freedom enhance control in antenna design, influencing radiation patterns and directivity, while in communication systems, it links to spatial channels for increased data rates, reliability, and resolution in imaging. The correlation between computed

Several studies have evaluated various ML techniques and found promising results in classifying bug reports. However, these studies have used different evaluation designs, making it difficult to compare their results. Furthermore, they have focused primarily on accuracy and did not consider other potentially relevant factors such as generalizability, explainability, and maintenance cost. These two

In July 2000 the five-year Swedish national “Socware Research & Education Program” was started. One of the aims of the program was to develop an innovative unique educational curriculum in System-on-Chip design. The program was targeted at undergraduate and graduate. In total the program received USD $15 million funding. In 2005 the program entered a new phase; more than 500 Master’s students

Immersing a user in life-like extended reality (XR) scenery using a head-mounted display (HMD) with a constrained form factor and hardware complexity requires remote rendering on a nearby edge server or computer. Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication technology can provide sufficient data rate for wireless XR content transmission. However, mmWave channels exhibit severe sparsity in the angular do

Sub-THz frequencies are tomorrow's hot research area in mobile communication. However, in this range of frequencies the systems are complex, and it is hard to explore various system architectures and correlate the system-level solutions with circuit-level performances and requirements. This paper presents a scalable testbench in MATLAB/Simulink for sub-THz hybrid beamforming receivers. The testben

Context:Bug reports created during software development and maintenance do not always describe deviations from a system’s valid behavior. Such invalid bug reports may consume significant resources and adversely affect the prioritization and resolution of valid bug reports. There is a need to identify preventive actions to reduce the inflow of invalid bug reports. Existing research has shown that m

Experimentation has been considered critical for successful software product and business development, including in video game startups. Video game startups need “wow” qualities that distinguish them from the competition. Thus, they need to continuously experiment to find these qualities before running out of time and resources. In this study, we aimed to explore how these companies perform experi
