Minimizing Classification Energy of Binarized Neural Network Inference for Wearable Devices
(2019-03-25)In this paper, we propose a low-power hardware for efficient deployment of binarized neural networks (BNNs) that have been trained for physiological datasets. BNNs constrain weights and feature-map to 1 bit, can pack in ... -
Fast estimation of genetic correlation for Biobank-scale data
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2019-01-20)Genetic correlation, i.e., the proportion of phenotypic correlation across a pair of traits that can be explained by genetic variation, is an important parameter in efforts to understand the relationships among complex ... -
PwoP: Intrusion-Tolerant and Privacy-Preserving Sensor Fusion
(2018-12-06)We design and implement, PwoP, an efficient and scalable system for intrusion-tolerant and privacy-preserving multi-sensor fusion. PwoP develops and unifies techniques from dependable distributed systems and modern ... -
Towards Hiding Adversarial Examples from Network Interpretation
(2018-12-06)Deep networks have been shown to be fooled rather easily using adversarial attack algorithms. Practical methods such as adversarial patches have been shown to be extremely effective in causing misclassification. However, ... -
"Woe is me": Examining Older Adults' Perceptions of Privacy
(ACM, 2019-05-04)We conducted a study of n = 20 older adults to better understand their mental models for what the term 'privacy' means to them in both digital and non-digital contexts. Participants were asked to diagrammatically represent ... -
"Pretty Close to a Must-Have": Balancing Usability Desire and Security Concern in Biometric Adoption
(2019-05-09)We report on a qualitative inquiry among security-expert and non-expert mobile device users about the adoption of biometric authentication using semi-structured interviews(n=38, 19/19 expert/non-expert). Security experts ... -
RelExt: Relation Extraction using Deep Learning approaches for Cybersecurity Knowledge Graph Improvement
(2019-05-16)Security Analysts that work in a `Security Operations Center' (SoC) play a major role in ensuring the security of the organization. The amount of background knowledge they have about the evolving and new attacks makes a ... -
A Fully-Flexible Solution-Processed Autonomous Glucose Indicator
(Springer Nature Publishing AG, 2019-05-06)We present the first demonstration of a fully-flexible, self-powered glucose indicator system that synergizes two flexible electronic technologies: a flexible self-powering unit in the form of a biofuel cell, with a flexible ... -
Effect of coil size on transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) focality
(SPIE, 2019-05-02)In recent years, there is an increasing interest in noninvasive treatments for neurological disorders like Alzheimer and Depression. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is one of the most effective methods used for ... -
Importance of lotus effect on surface sensing
(SPIE, 2019-05-02)Superhydrophobic polymer films are a material of interest for aircraft deicing fluids to achieve the selfcleaning lotus effect. Hydrophobic polymer films were obtained by a solvent selective method composed of hydrophilic ... -
Selection of optimal bands for developing multispectral system for inspecting apples for defects
(SPIE, 2019-04-30)Hyperspectral image technology is a powerful tool, but oftentimes the data dimension of hyperspectral images must be reduced for practical purposes, depending on the target and environment. For detecting defects on a variety ... -
Effect of processing on morphology of hydroxyapatites: bioactive glasses and crystalline composites
(SPIE, 2019-05-02)Recent studies on multinary oxides for applications as laser hosts and high dielectric capacitors have shown that processing at high temperature provides glassy or crystalline materials based on thermal treatments and ... -
Flexible polyimide based 34-channel electrode arrays for mouse EEG measurement
(SPIE, 2019-05-02)Electroencephalogram (EEG) recording is a widely used method to measure electrical activity in the brain. Rodent EEG brain recording not only is noninvasive but also has the advantages to accomplish full brain monitoring, ... -
Cybersecurity Challenges to American Local Governments
(2017-06-12)In this paper we examine data from the first ever nationwide survey of cybersecurity among American local governments. We are particularly interested in understanding the threats to local government cybersecurity, their ... -
Eye-Tracking-based Wizard-of-Oz Usability Evaluation of an Emotional Display Agent Integrated to a Virtual Environment
(2019)This paper presents the results of the usability testing of an experimental component of the Virtual Collaboration Arena (VirCA) developed by the Cognitive Informatics Group of the Computer and Automation Research Institute ... -

Degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid by UV 253.7 and UV-H2O2: Reaction kinetics and effects of interfering substances
(Elsevier B.V., 2019)This work investigates the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) using UV irradiation and the UV-H₂O₂ advanced oxidation process (AOP). For UV irradiation at 253.7 nm, ∼66% degradation was observed for a ... -
Generating Videos with Scene Dynamics
(2016)We capitalize on large amounts of unlabeled video in order to learn a model of scene dynamics for both video recognition tasks (e.g. action classification) and video generation tasks (e.g. future prediction). We propose a ...
