  • Topological analysis, visualization, and design of vector fields on surfaces

    Creator:
    Chen, Guoning
    Abstract:
    Analysis, visualization, and design of vector fields on surfaces have a wide variety of major applications in both scientific visualization and computer graphics. On the one hand, analysis and visualization of vector fields provide critical insights to the flow data produced from simulation or experiments of various engineering processes. On...

  • Tensor Field Design and Analysis for Applications in Computer Graphics and Scientific Visualization

    Creator:
    Palacios, Jonathan
    Abstract:
    Many applications in computer graphics and geometry processing rely on the ability to locally orient 2D and 3D entities on a surface, or inside a volume, such as the sinusoidal kernels in Gabor noise, the color and geometry textures in pattern synthesis, and the finite elements in remeshing. In these...

  • Out of the Mouths of Users : Examining User-Developer Feedback Loops Facilitated by App Stores

    Creator:
    Bailey, Kendall
    Abstract:
    Application Stores, such as the iTunes App Store, give developers access to their users’ complaints and requests in the form of application reviews. However, little is known about how developers are responding to application reviews. Without such knowledge developers, users, Application Stores, and researchers could make incorrect assumptions. To address...

  • Engineering Student Perspectives of a New Required Programming Course

    Creator:
    Garcia Ramirez, Jessica
    Abstract:
    We present student perceptions of a new first-year engineering programming class that was designed by informed research practices. While the College of Engineering at Oregon State University saw a lot of major switching in the first year, there were not many students switching into computer science (CS). This could have...

  • Exploratory Study to Uncover Student Mental Models of Singly Linked Lists in the C Programming Language

    Creator:
    Almadhoun, Eman
    Abstract:
    In computer science, learning abstract fundamental programming concepts requiring students to understand memory management can be very difficult and lead to misunderstandings that carry on into advanced topics. This is especially true in data structures with abstract data types. Understanding how novice students think and reason about data structures is...

  • 2D second-order asymmetric tensor field analysis and visualization

    Creator:
    Lin, Zhongzang
    Abstract:
    The gradient of a velocity vector field is an asymmetric tensor field which can provide critical insight that is difficult to infer from traditional trajectory-based vector field visualization techniques. I describe the structures in the eigenvalue and eigenvector fields of the gradient tensor and how these structures can be used...

  • Structuring Teachable Knowledge through Program-Concept Classifications

    Creator:
    Wilson, Benjamin F.
    Abstract:
    Teaching CS is a challenging task, especially for those without prior programming experience. Even for veteran educators, having to learn CS concepts while also trying to teach those same concepts is difficult; as is the case for many K-12 CS instructors. Unfortunately, there is often no formalized order with CS...

  • The ChildsPlay Approach: Evaluating an Experimental Approach for Teaching Introductory CS at University

    Creator:
    Nelson, Aiden J.
    Abstract:
    University students first learning about computer science (CS) can be intimidated and frustrated by programming. In addition, the general-purpose programming languages chosen for introducing students to programming contain several features that have the potential to overwhelm and distract them from focused curriculum topics, which can lead to reduced retention of...

  • Communication-Efficient Secure Two-Party Computation From Minicrypt and OT

    Creator:
    Roy, Lawrence
    Abstract:
    Secure two-party computation (2PC) is the task of performing arbitrary calculations on secret inputs provided by two parties, while maintaining secrecy if at least one party is honest. 2PC has been applied to privacy-preserving record linkage and machine learning, in areas such as medicine where maintaining privacy is crucial. One...

  • Tracr - Visual Interface for Generating Explanations

    Creator:
    Barnes, Jack
    Abstract:
    Tracr is a modern browser-based user interface, designed to be used with languages that can generate customized explanations from execution traces. While Tracr is primarily designed for use with the Xtra language, Tracr defines a generalized interface that would allow it to be used with other languages as well. Explanations...
