  • Using RUBI to partition agents in air traffic problems with hard constraints and reward shaping

    Creator:
    Curran, William
    Abstract:
    Air traffic flow management over the U.S. airpsace is a difficult problem. Current management approaches lead to hundreds of thousands of hours of delay, costing billions of dollars annually. Weather and airport conditions may instigate this delay, but routing decisions balancing delay with congestion contribute significantly to the propagation of...

  • Integrating Side Effects in Variational Programs Using Algebraic Effects

    Creator:
    Alkubaish, Ghadeer
    Abstract:
    Variational programming supports efficiently executing many related programs at once by encoding all of the programs in one "variational program" that captures the differences among them statically and explicitly. An open problem in variational programming is how to handle side effects—if two program variants perform different side effects, we cannot...

  • Physical activity recognition of free-living data using change-point detection algorithms and hidden Markov models

    Creator:
    Anderson, Michael M.
    Abstract:
    Physical activity recognition using accelerometer data is a rapidly emerging field with many real-world applications. Much of the previous work in this area has assumed that the accelerometer data has already been segmented into pure activities, and the activity recognition task has been to classify these segments. In reality, activity...

  • Reinforcement learning-based off-equilibrium incentives to approximate the VCG mechanism

    Creator:
    Moissinac, Béatrice
    Abstract:
    Auctions are used to solve resource allocation problem between many agents and many items in real-world settings. Unfortunately, in most cases, it is possible for selfish agents to manipulate the system for their own interest at the expense of the social welfare. Such manipulation can be prevented using the Vickrey-Clarke-Groves...

  • Exploration of regression models for cancer noncoding mutation recurrence

    Creator:
    Xu, Tanjin
    Abstract:
    An important impact of the genome technology revolution will be the elucidation of mechanisms of cancer pathogenesis, leading to improvements in the diagnosis of cancer and the selection of cancer treatment. Integrated with current well-studied massive knowledge and findings about the role of protein-coding mutations in cancer, demystifying the functional...

  • An ultra low power frequency reference for timekeeping applications

    Creator:
    Oporta, Hector Ivan
    Abstract:
    An ultra low power crystal oscillator that provides a frequency reference for battery powered timekeeping applications is presented. An amplitude control circuit is employed to ensure that minimum current is consumed. A subthreshold voltage regulator provides a supply voltage for the oscillator with minimum current consumption. The oscillator and regulator...

  • Leveraging Hardware-Impaired Out-of-Band Information Through Deep Neural Networks for Robust Wireless Device Classification

    Creator:
    Elmaghbub, Abdurrahman A.
    Abstract:
    Wireless device classification techniques play a key role in promoting emerging wireless applications such as allowing spectrum regulatory agencies to enforce their access policies and enabling network administrators to control access and prevent impersonation attacks to their wireless networks. Leveraging spectrum distortions of transmitted RF signals, caused by transceiver hardware...

  • A Multiresolution Analysis of Temporal Logic

    Creator:
    Pelphrey, Richard E.
    Abstract:
    Is it possible to determine whether a signal violates a formula in Signal Temporal Logic (STL), if the monitor only has access to a low-resolution version of the signal? We answer this question affirmatively by demonstrating that temporal logic has a multiresolution structure, which parallels the multiresolution structure of signals....

  • Indexing Web 2.0 Applications

    Creator:
    Mohan, Sumana
    Abstract:
    This project aims at implementing Indexing for Web 2.0 Applications. Ajax applications consist of a set of states which are generated by the user through actions such as click, focus, blur etc. events. By saving these DOM states we can index information obtained from dynamically generated web content. To prevent...

  • Formative Work Toward a Mixed-Initiative Programming Language

    Creator:
    Abbott, Keeley
    Abstract:
    Mixed-initiative programming entails collaboration between a computer system, and a human to achieve some desired goal or set of goals. Often these goals change or are amended in real time during the course of program execution. As such, the plans these programs are based on must adapt and evolve to...
