Conventional control of an articulated manipulator such as robot arms involves the use of sensor measurements of joint values to calculate the position and orientation of the end-effector and to perform motion control. Conversely, in cases where direct sensing is not available, a vision-based...

This thesis focuses on event-based state estimation problems in the context of cyber-physical systems (CPSs), targeting at low-complexity event-based state estimators that are optimal in a certain sense. The motivation stems from the resource limitations in the applications of CPSs (e.g.,...

Machine Learning for Robust Tracking of Interface Level Inside a Primary Separation Vessel in the Presence of Occlusions and Noise
DownloadSpring 2021
A Primary Separation Vessel (PSV), used in the oil sands industry, is an important process equipment, where Bitumen is separated from the oil sand using a density based separation process. The interface level between a bitumen rich layer (froth) and a layer that has moderate amounts of bitumen in...

This thesis develops an online parameter and state estimation scheme for a linear parameter varying (LPV) system that utilizes an iterative moving window technique. In the proposed scheme, an online algorithm, based on the input/output measurement, is implemented to approximate the real system...
