  • On a Topological Criterion for the Construction of Higher Arity Metrics

    Creator:
    Barkan, Willow
    Abstract:
    Metric spaces (X, d) are ubiquitous objects in mathematics and computer science that are able to capture pairwise distance relationships d(x, y) between points x, y ∈ X. Because of this, it is natural to ask what useful generalizations there are of metric spaces for capturing “k-wise distance relationships” d(x1,...

  • Video Object Segmentation by Jointly Tracking Foreground and Background

    Creator:
    Borkar, Rahul
    Abstract:
    This report presents an efficient method for semi-supervised video object segmentation – the problem of identifying foreground pixels occupied by a target object. The target is specified by the ground-truth mask in the first video frame. While the state of the art achieves a segmentation accuracy greater than 80%, it...

  • A 5 GHz Wi-Fi Receiver Front End with 4x80 MHz Channels for a High Accuracy Indoor Localization System

    Creator:
    Gray, Kyle L.
    Abstract:
    The ability to accurately locate people and objects indoors will enable opportunities for control and automation of indoor environments. Current indoor localization solutions require dedicated hardware which must be custom tailored to each application. There are large technological, societal, and economic benefits in developing a more general purpose system that...

  • Foreground signature extraction for a non-linear hyperspectral mixing model

    Creator:
    Hollis, Jarrod
    Abstract:
    Hyperspectral images consist of intensity measurements associated with a large number of EM wavelengths per pixel. When a pixel contains a single material, the measurements of the pixel match the spectral signature of the material. When multiple materials are present in a single pixel, spectral mixing occurs, and signatures of...

  • Towards Direct Simultaneous Speech Translation

    Creator:
    Chen, Junkun
    Abstract:
    Simultaneous speech translation (SimulST) is widely useful in many cross-lingual communication scenarios, including multinational conferences and international traveling. Since text-based simultaneous machine translation (SimulMT) has achieved great success in recent years. The conventional cascaded approach for SimulST uses a pipeline of streaming ASR followed by simultaneous MT but suffers from...

  • Customizable Visual Traces for Program Explanations

    Creator:
    Bajaj, Divya
    Abstract:
    Correctness and efficiency are important properties of programs. However, to support maintenance and debugging, the programs should also be understandable. Program explanations also play a vital role in educational settings, enhancing the understanding of programs among students. Proof trees provide a sound basis for generating dynamic explanations of programs. But...

  • An Approach to Help End Users Become Aware of Privacy Risks in Home Automation

    Creator:
    Caglar, Turgay
    Abstract:
    Smart home devices, such as voice assistants, smart lights, and smart video doorbells have become a part of end users' daily lives. Many of these devices combine their features with other services and smart devices to create a simple and efficient user experience. This is partly because of the contribution...

  • A Framework of Comparing Privacy Policies for Smart Home Devices

    Creator:
    Saginatham, Manideepa
    Abstract:
    Smart home devices are becoming increasingly popular and by 2021, it is estimated to have 80 million devices in the households of the U.S. The privacy and security threats involved with devices, as a result, are also scaling up in recent years. Smart home cameras have been hacked, private conversations...

  • Facilitating Code Comprehension by Annotations in Canvas-Based IDE

    Creator:
    Adeli, Marjan
    Abstract:
    Developers spend a considerable amount of time comprehending code and building accurate mental models of the code. Understanding the relationships between software features within IDEs is difficult, with information split across different visual hierarchies making navigation cumbersome. Canvas-based IDEs mitigate some of the navigation costs by allowing relevant information to...

  • New Directions in Search-based Structured Prediction: Multi-Task Learning and Integration of Deep Models

    Creator:
    Ma, Chao
    Abstract:
    This thesis studies the problem of structured prediction (SP), where the agent needs to predict a structured output for a given structured input (e.g., Part-of-Speech tagging sequence for an input sentence). Many important applications including machine translation in natural language processing (NLP) and image interpretation in computer vision can be...
