  • Pandey, Bivash (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2022-04-26)
    Three-dimensional object detectors are essential components of the perception sys tems of autonomous robots. Most of the 3D object detection methods are point-based, voxel-based, or point-voxel-based (uses both point-based ...

  • Kamra, Vivek (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2022-09-09)
    Commercial buildings as well as residential houses represent core structures of any modern day urban or semi-urban areas. Consequently, 3D models of urban buildings are of paramount importance to a majority of digital ...

  • Murtha, Thomas (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2017)
    Differential equations are involved in many felds. Often these cannot be solved exactly, so they must be approximated. To do this, we derive a fourth order finite difference scheme for non-uniform meshes. This is paired ...

  • Goodspeed, Ben (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2016)
    The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the state of the art in formal methods usage in secure computing. From this evaluation, we analyze the common components and search for weaknesses within the common workflows of ...

  • Xu, Jing (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2004)
    For many information processing applications, there are several different existing error models and error correction algorithms. This research focuses on a general methodology for defining error models describing different ...

  • Dow, Fatima (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2017)
    Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) arise in many applications. Typically these ODEs are sufficiently complicated that they must be solved using numerical methods. One of the well-known classes of numerical methods for ...

  • Thakur, Sumesh (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2021)
    Three-dimensional point cloud datasets are becoming ubiquitous due to the availability of consumer-grade 3D sensors such as Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR), and RGB-D cameras. Recent advancements in 3D deep learning ...

  • Lin, Ling (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2009)
    BACOL is an efficient software package for solving systems of second order parabolic PDEs in one space dimension. A significant feature of the package is that it employs adaptive error control in both time and space. A ...

  • Sharpe, Owen (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2020)
    We define a Hopf algebra and give a variety of examples of varying complexity. To facilitate the definition, we first define the commutative diagram, the tensor product, and an algebra/coalgebra/bialgebra. We briefly discuss ...

  • Wiechert, Glavin (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2016)
    This paper studies the supervised classification of electroencephalogram (EEG) brain signals to identify persons and their activities. The brain signals are obtained from a commercially available and modestly priced wearable ...

  • Newman, Jennie J. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2016)
    In Mathematics, graph theory is the study of graphs, which consist of a set of points, called vertices, and the connections between them, called edges. Domination is a subfield of this study, which looks at subsets of ...

  • Zhang, Peng, M.Sc. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2010)
    Inventory management, as an important business issue, plays a significant role in promoting business development. This study aims to apply data mining techniques, such as time series clustering and time series prediction ...

  • MacDonald, Zachary A. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2016)
    Fast matrix multiplication algorithms such as the Strassen algorithm allow for the multiplication of matrices with fewer multiplications than would normally be needed, thus making the calculations more efficient. We introduce ...

  • Akiyama, Yasushi, 1972- (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2005)
    The process of creating character animation requires hours of work and years of experience by skilled animators. Assisting this process by providing tools to automate some of the procedures during the animation creation ...

  • Tian, Geng (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2005)
    Level set methods are powerful numerical techniques for tracking the motion of an interface. Many applications arise in such areas as fluid flow simulations, medical science, and image processing. In fluid flow simulations, ...
