A faster matching of mathematical model with real life data
produced by University of Surrey (Surrey, England: University of Surrey, 2015), 3 mins
This thesis examines how to solve the problem of when "real-life" data and the mathematical representation you use to view the data starts to drift. Using a new novel approach, this representation can provide almost real-time data analysis to inform better decision-making.

Winner of the 2017 University of Surrey competition. X-ray detectors find uses in many areas, such as healthcare, homeland security, environmental monitoring, and academic research. Current solid-state detectors are made from rigid, brittle materials making them expensive to manufacture and susceptible to physical damage, thus limiting their size. These issues are addressed by our novel X-ray detector, made by printing an ‘X-ray sensitive ink’ on any surface, up to any size. These detectors are 100 times more sensitive than established solid-state detector technologies. They are flexible, and thinner than paper, allowing them to conform to any desired shape, and they can be operated using wrist watch batteries. This new generation of detectors produce an electrical response when exposed to an X-ray and can be used in many applications, such as dose evaluation during cancer therapy, portable security screening, and medical imaging in the field, amongst others.
