There is an increasing demand for highly reliable systems in the safety conscious climate of today’s world. When a fault does occur there are two desirable outcomes. Firstly, de...
Microfluidics-based biochips, also referred to as lab-on-a-chip (LoC), are devices that integrate fluid-handling functions such as sample preparation, analysis, separation, and de...
Our proposed methods employ learning and search techniques to estimate outcome features of interest as a function of mechanism parameter settings. We illustrate our approach with ...
