Analysis and processing of hyperspectral data with the purpose of classification

Logan Smith with Julia DobrosotkayaAnalysis and processing of hyperspectral data with the purpose of classificationHyperspectral imaging is an advanced imaging technique that measures visible and near-infrared light reflecting off a surface. Hyperspectral imagery has a wide range of applications from geospatial sciences to ecology, surveillance and more. A hyperspectral...

Analysis of Bifurcations and Abrupt Transitions in Energy Balance Models (EBM) coupled to green-house-gas emissions (GHG)

Robert Taylor with David GurarieAnalysis of Bifurcations and Abrupt Transitions in Energy Balance Models (EBM) coupled to green-house-gas emissions (GHG).Simple energy balance models with temperature dependent albedo (reflected fraction of incoming radiation) can exhibit hysteresis and rapid transitions between “warm” and “cold” equilibrium states. Another important factor that affects...

Investigating the growth mechanism of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides

Christopher Wagner with Xuan GaoInvestigating the growth mechanism of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenidesMonolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), such MoS­­2­ and MoSe­2­ ­, have been the subject of increased interest due to their promising potential in nanoelectronics, optoelectronics, and other fields. To date, the synthesis of large area...
