Simultaneous localization and mapping for pedestrians using only foot-mounted inertial sensors
In this paper we describe a new Bayesian estimation approach for simultaneous mapping and localization for pedestrians based on odometry with foot mounted inertial sensors. When s...

A methodology to improve timing yield in the presence of process variations
The ability to control the variations in IC fabrication process is rapidly diminishing as feature sizes continue towards the sub-100 nm regime. As a result, there is an increasing...
