A hybrid weighted interacting particle filter, the selectively resampling particle filter (SERP), is used to detect and track multiple ships maneuvering in a region of water. The ship trajectories exhibit nonlinear dynamics and interact in a nonlinear manner such that the ships do not collide....

Applications of nonautonomous infinite-dimensional systems control theory for parabolic PDEs
DownloadFall 2013
Parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are used as models of transport-reaction phenomena in a variety of different industrial chemical and materials engineering processes, and can yield precise descriptions of process variables with complex temporal and spatially dependent system...

Intrafractional tumour tracking is of considerable interest as a means to minimize the PTV in treating mobile tumours. By utilizing the intrafractional MR imaging feature of linac-MR, this thesis seeks to develop a direct, non-surrogate based intrafractional tumour tracking system, and physically...

Needle Shape Visualization, Tracking and Steering Control for Permanent Prostate Brachytherapy Applications
DownloadFall 2016
Prostate cancer is one of the most prevalent types of cancers in North American males, afflicting one in eight men over the course of their lifetime. Fortunately, early-stage prostate cancer has a wide variety of treatment options. One such option, permanent prostate brachytherapy, has been...

Ballantyne, David, Hoffman, John, Kouritzin, Michael
Particle-based nonlinear filters provide a mathematically optimal (in the limit) and sound method for solving a number of difficult filtering problems. However, there are a number of practical difficulties that can occur when applying particle-based filtering techniques to real world problems....

Cobzas, Dana, Birkbeck, Neil, Jagersand, Martin
Technical report TR09-03. We propose a method that makes standard turntable-based vision acquisition a practical method for recovering models of human geometry. A human subject typically exhibits some unintended joint motion while rotating on a turntable. Ignoring such motion causes...
