    Introduction to Manufacturing Systems

    Introduction to Manufacturing Systems

    This course provides ways to analyze manufacturing systems in terms of material flow and storage, information flow, capacities, and times and durations of events. Fundamental topics include probability, inventory and queuing models, optimization, and linear and dynamic systems. Factory planning and scheduling topics include flow planning, bottleneck characterization, buffer and batch-size analysis, and dynamic behavior of production systems.

    Aircraft Stability and Control

    Aircraft Stability and Control

    This class includes a brief review of applied aerodynamics and modern approaches in aircraft stability and control. Topics covered include static stability and trim; stability derivatives and characteristic longitudinal and lateral-directional motions; and physical effects of the wing, fuselage, and tail on aircraft motion. Control methods and systems are discussed, with emphasis on flight vehicle stabilization by classical and modern control techniques; time and frequency domain analysis of control system performance; and human-pilot models and pilot-in-the-loop controls with applications. Other topics covered include V/STOL stability, dynamics, and control during transition from hover to forward flight; parameter sensitivity; and handling quality analysis of aircraft through variable flight conditions. There will be a brief discussion of motion at high angles-of-attack, roll coupling, and other nonlinear flight regimes.

    Airline Management

    Airline Management

    This course provides an overview of airline management decision processes with a focus on economic issues and their relationship to operations planning models and decision support tools. It emphasizes the application of economic models of demand, pricing, costs, and supply to airline markets and networks, and it examines industry practice and emerging methods for fleet planning, route network design, scheduling, pricing and revenue management.

    Introduction to Propulsion Systems

    Introduction to Propulsion Systems

    This course presents aerospace propulsive devices as systems, with functional requirements and engineering and environmental limitations along with requirements and limitations that constrain design choices. Both air-breathing and rocket engines are covered, at a level which enables rational integration of the propulsive system into an overall vehicle design. Mission analysis, fundamental performance relations, and exemplary design solutions are presented.

    SUFR-W (Subtasks of unconstrained face recognition)

    SUFR-W (Subtasks of unconstrained face recognition)

    This package contains: 1. SUFR-W, a dataset of “in the wild” natural images of faces gathered from the internet. The protocol used to create the dataset is described in Leibo, Liao and Poggio (2014) - https://cbmm.mit.edu/publications/conference-abstracts/subtasks-unconstrained-face-recognition 2. The full set of SUFR synthetic datasets, called the “Subtasks of Unconstrained Face Recognition Challenge” in Leibo, Liao and Poggio (2014) - https://cbmm.mit.edu/publications/conference-abstracts/subtasks-unconstrained-face-recognition

    Invariant Action Recognition Dataset

    Invariant Action Recognition Dataset

    A dataset of five actors performing five different actions (drink, eat, jump, run and walk) on a treadmill from five different views (0, 45, 90, 135, and 180 degrees from the front of the actor/treadmill; the treadmill rather than the camera was rotated in place to acquire from different viewpoints). The dataset was filmed on a fixed, constant background.
