MIT researchers have developed a new technique for magnetically separating oil and water that could be used to clean up spills.
Description: Probability, as it appears in the real world, is related to axiomatic mathematical models. Events, independence, and random variables are reviewed, stressing both the axioms and intuition. Instructor: Prof. Robert Gallager
Description: After reviewing Wald's identity, we introduce martingales and show they include many processes already studied. Next, submartingales, supermartingales, and stopped (simple, sub, super) martingales are introduced. Instructor: Prof. Robert Gallager
Description: In this lecture, many problem solving techniques are developed using, first, combining and splitting of various Poisson processes, and, second, conditioning on the number of arrivals in an interval. Instructor: Prof. Robert Gallager
CoDAC is a new time-of-flight based range measurement system for acquiring depth maps of piecewise-planar scenes with high spatial resolution.
