An Interactive 3D Visualization Tool to Analyze the Functionality of Convolutional Neural Networks
DownloadFall 2022
Convolutional Neural Networks have outperformed traditional image processing approaches for many image classification tasks. However, despite achieving high classification accuracy on multiple datasets, these machine learning approaches are not transparent and act more like a black box. For this...

An open-source two-phase non-isothermal mathematical model of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell
DownloadSpring 2014
A comprehensive open-source two-phase non-isothermal MEA model including the microporous layer and accounting for multi-step reaction kinetics for the ORR and HOR is developed for the first time. The model is integrated into openFCST, an open-source FEM based fuel cell simulation framework. All...
