"Environmental Monitors on Lobster Traps and Large Trawlers (eMOLT): Harvesting data for ocean models"

Abstract:
Approximately one hundred commercial fishing vessels on the Northeast Shelf now have oceanographic sensors installed on their fixed and mobile gear. Some have experimented with salinity monitors, cameras, tide guages, acoustic listening devices, and current meters but the primary focus has been collecting bottom temperatures. While some gear fitted with internally-recording devices
have returned more than two decades of hourly data from fixed locations, 50+ vessels have automatically reported over 19,000 haul-averaged bottom temperatures from 2015-2022 via satellite in real time. In the past year, several vessels were equipped with water column profilers to document the vertical stratification of temperature and a few are collecting records of dissolved oxygen. After quickly reviewing the project status and introducing new members of the team, the talk will focus on the potential use of the
temperature data by ocean modelers.

A new kind of book club meeting
- Location: Claire T. Carney Library, Room 122, Grand Reading Room
- Cost: free
- Contact: > See Description for contact information
- Description: Steven Manchester
The Claire T. Carney Library Associates would like to invite you to a book club meeting on Thursday, September 8th, 2022 at 4 PM in the Grand Reading Room of the Claire T. Carney Library. Parking is available on campus in lot13. We will be discussing the national best-selling book, Ashes, by local author Steven Manchester.
How often have you attended a book club meeting and wondered what it would be like to discuss the book with its author? Here’s your chance. Steven Manchester will be discussing the book with the group.
Steven Manchester is the author of #1 bestsellers, Twelve Months, The Rockin’ Chair, Pressed Pennies and Gooseberry Island. He also wrote national bestsellers, Ashes, the Changing Season and Three Shoeboxes. This fall, he will be releasing a new novel. A native of Westport, he began his writing career after serving in Operation Desert Storm. He is married to his wife, Paula. Together, they have four children.
Come spend an afternoon, discussing this fascinating novel that depicts estranged middle-aged brothers, brought together by the final request of a cruel father who asked that they travel around the country to spread his ashes.
Ashes puts a new spin on family and dysfunction with a story that is at once fresh and timelessly universal.
The program is free and open to the public. Refreshments will follow a Q&A and book signing.
Spend an afternoon filled with good reading and good fun.

TOPIC:
Single-Pattern Filter Algorithm for Training Analog Artificial Neural Networks
ABSTRACT:
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are typically realized as computer programs designed to simulate the way in which the human brain processes information. ANNs gather their knowledge by detecting the patterns
and relationships through training not from programming. This thesis is using "Self-trained Multi-layer Analog Real-time" (SMART) architecture to solve the handwritten pattern recognition problem for numbers (0-9) by introducing a "Single-Pattern Filter Algorithm" (SPF) which takes inputs from raw data in the MNIST file for handwritten numbers (0-9) and provides 10x10 outputs to set the weights for the 10 neurons in the output layer neurons (OLNs). This thesis is also presenting MATLAB simulation using the Single-Pattern Filter algorithm.
ADVISORS:
Dr. David Rancor, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering, UMD
COMMITTEE MEMBERS: Dr. Dayalan Kasilingam and Dr. Paul Fortier, Electrical and Computer Engineering, UMD
Open to the public. All ECE students are encouraged to attend.
