Randomly connected networks with synchronous update and asymmetric connections and constant parameters, when given different initial conditions, typically converge to only a small number of different...
Erickcek, Adrienne L., Steinhardt, Paul J., McCammon, Dan, McGuire, Patrick C.
Although the rocket-based x-ray quantum calorimetry (XQC) experiment was designed for x-ray spectroscopy, the minimal shielding of its calorimeters, its low atmospheric overburden, and its...
The Cyborg Astrobiologist: Porting from a wearable computer to the Astrobiology Phone-cam (2007)
Bartolo, Alexandra, McGuire, Patrick C., Camilleri, Kenneth P., Spiteri, Christopher, Borg, Jonathan C., Farrugia, Philip J., ...
We have used a simple camera phone to significantly improve an `exploration system' for astrobiology and geology. This camera phone will make it much easier to develop and test computer-vision...
