Bie is staying with us from August 26, 2002 until January 10, 2003. He is
currently doing research in Laurent El-Ghaoui's group on making
kernel versions for certain classes of algorithms. Dr. Mika
Kuulusa is studying the implementation of an ultra-low power wireless sensor
node called the PicoNode. He is working with Professor Jan Rabaey
and the BWRC. He is here from March 15, 2001 until April 30, 2002. Dr. Claudio
Privitera has been a Visiting Scholar working with Professor Lawrence Stark
pursuing research projects concerning bottom-up image processing
and in particular, families of algorithms that might produce results for
specific tasks and for specific types of pictures, thereby imitating
some functions of human vision. He has been with us since August 15,
2000 and will stay until August 16, 2003. Dr.
Seleme is a Visiting Scholar with Professor Sanders and is currently
working on sensorless speed control of induction motors and the
aspects of loss minimization. He will be here from January 20,
2002 until January 19, 2003. Yuping Tian is visiting Professor Leon O. Chua from January 01, 2002 until December 31, 2002. He is here to study complex dynamics including chaos and bifurcations in engineering systems and networks; study nonlinear control theory and its application to chaos control and synchronization; study possibility of application of chaos control and synchronization techniques in information processing.
Suwon Cho worked with Professor Ernest Kuh on modeling and simulation of low-temperature plasmas. He was here from December 17, 2000 until February 14, 2002. Johan Driesen worked with Professor Seth Sanders from January 07, 2002 until July 07, 2002. His research was in design, use and control of power electronic systems containing energy storage in the form of a high-speed flywheel-motor/generator combination are studied. It is aimed to investigate the further application capabilities of this technology in fixed, electricity grid connected systems, thereby optimizing the energy delivery of irregular distributed sources such as renewable energy sources, and enhancing the power quality and supply reliability by adding other functionalities. johan.driesen@esat.kuleuven.ac.be From September 01, 2001 until February 28, 2002, Rowena Guevara stayed in the EECS Department as a visiting scholar for Professor Nelson Morgan. Her research was in perceptual coding of speech to develop a low-bit rate speech coder. Makoto Itoh visited the EECS department from April 01, 2001 until March 31, 2003. He worked with Professor Leon O. Chua in application of chaos to communication systems and medical information technology. Dr. Pedro Julian
Dr. Pedro Julián was working with Dr. Leon O. Chua on Cellular
