physics as less appealing, preferring to stay in the lab, and may not apply themselves in working complex, multistep problems. (B) Some are interested in pure science and/or are planning to pursue other scientific fields (e.g., medicine). These students sometimes have little interest in the bots and programming but may do well in learning theory and taking tests.Unfortunately, most students have never done any programming or worked with spreadsheets.Some students struggle with programming beyond simple commands. Programs of any length,which required use of several subroutines and “IF…THEN” logic, were a struggle for many ofthe students. We have not emphasized programming in the course; we see it as an enablingtechnology

Some applications require a special image acquisition system like a thermal camera or an infrared camera8. 3. Image processing acts as the brain of the machine vision and is typically composed of pre-processing, segmentation, and feature extraction. a. Pre-processing – modify and prepare the raw image to produce an image data that is suitable for subsequent operation. An example is increasing the intensity of the image pixels. b. Segmentation - the desired object is differentiated from the background. The

During this period, he has attracted research and development grants fromthe National Science Foundation and industries. Some of these developments are used to deliverlaboratory courses within an electrical engineering technology program. This section willprovide an outline of those developments.To maximize the benefit of remote laboratories, the facility design philosophy includes a numberof features: a) use of emerging technologies; b) individualized learning; c) knowledge-centeredlearning; d

Themost commonly used coordinate system in the Hough Transform implementation is (ρ, θ). With nimage points, the ranges of (ρ,θ) can be taken to be ρ: [−M, M ] and θ: [−π, π] where M depends onthe image size. If we restrict θ to be in [0, π] range, then normal parameters for the line will beunique. With this restriction, every line in the x

demonstrate differences in team performance for simulations and real robotexperiments. While simulations are good for quicker testing and a cheaper solution thanpurchasing equipment, conducting experiments with real robots allows for more accurate results.In physical experiments, there are many factors, such as robot interference, an unknownenvironment, and delayed communications, which can influence results. However, running realexperiments are required to accurately test the efficiency of an approach. Future work includesexamining these factors further.Bibliography[1] S. Dawson, B. L. Wellman, and M.

for a pattern to be "interesting". 2. Data Preprocessing. Real world data are generally (a) incomplete: lacking attribute values, lacking certain attributes of interest, or containing only aggregate data (b) noisy: containing errors or outliers and (c) inconsistent: containing discrepancies in codes or names. Certain basic preprocessing techniques are discussed here, including: • Data cleaning: fill in missing values, smooth noisy data, identify or remove outliers, and resolve inconsistencies. • Data integration: using multiple databases, data cubes, or files. • Data transformation: normalization and aggregation. • Data reduction: reducing
