I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. A. Lynn Abbott, for helping me throughout my research, Gary Fleming and the rest of the people at NASA Langley who provided all the flight information and image sequences, and my parents who supported me in my decision to enter graduate study. Also, thanks to Phichet Trisirisipal and Xiaojin Gong for helping when I had computer vision questions, and Nathan Herald for his help creating an illustration.
