Today's advanced engineering tools and multidisciplinary projects make engineering research more vital than ever. At the University of Wisconsin-Madison College of Engineering, our talented faculty excel in many areas, including emerging interdisciplinary fields such as biomedical engineering, energy research, nanotechnology and atomic-level engineering. The college's consortia and partnerships with more than 200 industrial and governent partners help support and share its research and technology. Our students — tomorrow's leaders — learn in a world-class environment so that they can not only live in that changing world, but they create and shape those changes as well. On campus, students can exercise their creativity and entrepreneurship in both coursework and through extracurricular opportunities such as design competitions and hands-on experience creating new technology-based businesses.

OFDVDnet: A Sensor Fusion Approach for Video Denoising in Fluorescence Guided Surgery
(Proceedings of Machine Learning Research, 2023)Many applications in machine vision and medical imaging require the capture of images from a scene with very low radiance, which may result in very noisy images and videos. An important example of such an application is ... -
Data for "Time-dependent deformation in the damage zone of the Chelungpu fault system and potential stress relaxation. Geophysical Research Letters."
(2024-01-10)High fracture density in fault damage zones not only reduces the elastic stiffness of rocks but may also promote time-dependent bulk deformation through the sliding of fracture and thus alter the stress in fault zones. ... -
Evaluating the compatibility of solvents used in reductive lignin depolymerization with microbial funneling using Novosphingobium aromaticivorans
(2023)The industrial revolution has resulted in the intensive use and dependence of fossil fuels and their products around the world. Fossil fuel emissions and the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are causing ... -
Power Line Wildfire Risk for CATS
(2023)This dataset contains correlations between the WFPI wildfire risk forecast and the power lines in the CATS synthetic power grid system. The data geographic data is processed to identify the maximum, mean, and cumulative ... -

Impacts of managed aquifer recharge on ecosystem services in a forested and agricultural landscape
(2023)Groundwater is a crucial global resource that millions rely on daily. Groundwater provides reliable sources of drinking water, supports ecosystems through maintaining streamflow and wetland habitats, and further provides ... -
Three-phase grid-forming droop control for unbalanced systems and fault ride through
(2023)In this study, we investigate grid-forming (GFM) control for dc/ac voltage source converters (VSC) under unbalanced system conditions and unbalanced faults. To fully leverage the degrees of freedom of VSCs, we introduce ... -
Gait Parameter Monitoring Using A Wearable Stereo Camera System
(2023)An infrared (IR) stereo camera is mounted on each bracelet and tasked with tracking a marker on the bracelet on the other ankle. Based on the imaged trajectories of both markers, a computer vision algorithm that we developed ... -
USING SCADA AND AMI TO IDENTIFY AREAS OF WATER LOSS IN MADISON WATER UTILITY
(2023)Madison Water Utility (MWU) has an annual water loss of approximately 12%. This accounts for roughly 1.1 billion gallons of water and 2500 MWh of electricity per year. The electricity used to pump this lost water contributes ... -
