Analyzing Life-logging Image Sequences
Moghimi Najafabadi, Mohammad (2017-01-30)With the abundance of ubiquitous cameras, it has become easier people take pictures of everything and everywhere. People take pictures of their possessions, interesting subjects and the places they visit. There is a class ... -
Automated analysis of quantitative image biomarkers from low-dose chest CT scans
Liu, Shuang (2018-08-30)A quantitative imaging biomarker is a quantitatively measured characteristic derived from medical images, which serves as cost¬-effective and non¬invasive tools for patient health assessment, including diagnosis and periodic ... -
Automatic Patent Classification Using Support Vector Machines And Its Applications
Zhao, Yan (2011-08-31)Patents as an important component belonging to innovation can serve as an index in representing the technological development level in a given industry. However, agricultural biotechnology patent (ABP) data have not been ... -
Bayesian Optimization with Parallel Function Evaluations and Multiple Information Sources: Methodology with Applications in Biochemistry, Aerospace Engineering, and Machine Learning
Wang, Jialei (2017-01-30)Bayesian optimization, a framework for global optimization of expensive-to-evaluate functions, has recently gained popularity in machine learning and global optimization because it can find good feasible points with few ... -
Coordinated Static and Dynamic Scheduling for High-Quality High-Level Synthesis
Dai, Steve Haihang (2019-05-30)The breakdown of Dennard scaling has led to the rapid growth of specialized hardware accelerators to meet ever more stringent performance and energy requirements. However, great performance-per-watt comes at the cost of ... -
Counterfactual Evaluation And Learning From Logged User Feedback
Swaminathan, Adith (2017-05-30)Interactive systems that interact with and learn from user behavior are ubiquitous today. Machine learning algorithms are core components of such systems. In this thesis, we will study how we can re-use logged user behavior ... -
Data-Driven Material Recognition and Photorealistic Image Editing Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
Upchurch, Paul (2018-08-30)Fully automatic processing of images is a key challenge for the 21st century. Our processing needs lie beyond just organizing photos by date and location. We need image analysis tools that can reason about photos like a ... -
Deep Sequential and Structural Neural Models of Compositionality
Irsoy, Ozan (2017-01-30)Recent advances in deep learning have provided fruitful applications for natural language processing (NLP) tasks. One key advance was the invention of word vectors, representing every word in a dense, low-dimensional vector ... -
Deformable Media for Visual and Tactile Interfaces
Larson, Chris (2017-05-30)We experience a variety of natural touch surfaces in our daily lives. These surfaces range in compliance from hard to soft, and in texture from smooth to rough. Human computer interfaces, on the other hand, have largely ... -
Detecting Common Objects in Context
Lin, Tsung-Yi (2017-08-30)Visual scene understanding is a basic function of human perception and one of the primary goals of computer vision. Object detection, which involves recognizing and localizing objects present in an environment, is a ... -
DFT study of the complex diffusion of oxygen in cobalt & Machine learning of ab-initio energy landscapes for crystal structure predictions
Honrao, Shreyas Jaikumar (2019-05-30)Point defects in solids are important because they can have a large influence on the mechanical, electronic, and optical properties. One of the most ubiquitous defects in metals is oxygen. Here, we use DFT to show that all ... -
EMPIRICAL METHODS FOR FINE-GRAINED OPINION EXTRACTION FROM TEXT
Breck, Eric (2008-07-29)Opinions are everywhere. The op/ed pages of newspapers, political blogs, and consumer websites like epinions.com are just some examples of the textual opinions available to readers. And there are many consumers who are ... -
Extensible Spectralism: Revealing Latent Structures In Music Audio For Composition, Analysis, And Retrieval
Topel, Spencer (2012-05-27)Music exemplifies the repetitive patterns in nature. These patterns lend a distinctiveness to sound sources that make them identifiable. In audio analysis, this information can be accessed by using a process called spectral ... -
