Morphological approaches to understanding Antarctic Sea ice thickness
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Sea ice thickness has long been an under-measured quantity, even in the satellite era. The snow surface elevation, which is far easier to measure, cannot be directly converted into sea ice thickness estimates without ...
Robust non-Gaussian semantic simultaneous localization and mapping
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
The recent success of object detection systems motivates object-based representations for robot navigation; i.e. semantic simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), in which we aim to jointly estimate the pose of the ...
Adaptive sampling of transient environmental phenomena with autonomous mobile platforms
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)
In the environmental and earth sciences, hypotheses about transient phenomena have been universally investigated by collecting physical sample materials and performing ex situ analysis. Although the gold standard, logistical ...
