  • Identifying Design Discussion Topics in Open Source Software

    Creator:
    Chatterjee, Amreeta
    Abstract:
    When contributing to a software system, developers need to understand the rationale for previous design decisions so that they can adhere to the system’s design. Not doing so can lead to erosion of the overall design quality of the system. However, discussions embedded in a large volume of communication on...

  • Distributed OpenCL : a platform for distributed, heterogeneous computing for domain scientists

    Creator:
    Dillon, William H.
    Abstract:
    It is possible to purchase, for as little as $10,000, a cluster of computers with the capability to rival the supercomputers of only a few years ago. Now, users that have little to no experience developing distributed applications or managing a cluster are in a position to do so. To...

  • Learning greedy policies for the easy-first framework

    Creator:
    Xie, Jun
    Abstract:
    Easy-first, a search-based structured prediction approach, has been applied to many NLP tasks including dependency parsing and coreference resolution. This approach employs a learned greedy policy (action scoring function) to make easy decisions first, which constrains the remaining decisions and makes them easier. This thesis studies the problem of learning...

  • Fabrication of Cost-effective Flexible Glucose Sensor for Continuous Glucose Monitoring

    Creator:
    Mullapudi, Sri Sai Kameswara
    Abstract:
    Diabetes is a pandemic that affects nearly 29.1 million Americans and the fourth leading cause of mortality in the US. Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition which occurs due to little to no production of insulin by the pancreas. This form of diabetes requires constant monitoring of blood glucose...

  • 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...

  • Efficient Spectrum Sensing and Sharing Techniques for Dynamic Wideband Spectrum Access

    Creator:
    Khalfi, Bassem
    Abstract:
    Besides enabling an enhanced mobile broadband access, fifth-generation (5G) wireless mobile networks are envisioned to support the connectivity of massive, heterogeneous Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Connecting these devices through 5G systems and providing them with their needed data rates require huge amounts of spectrum and power resources, thus calling...

  • Multimedia streaming using multiple TCP connections

    Creator:
    Tullimalli, Sunand
    Abstract:
    Packet loss, delay and time-varying bandwidth are three main problems facing multimedia streaming applications over the Internet. Existing techniques such as Media-aware network protocol, network adaptive source and channel coding, etc. have been proposed to either overcome or alleviate these drawbacks of the Internet. But these techniques either need specialized...

  • Electrical characterization of thermally reduced graphite oxide

    Creator:
    Jewell, Ira
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the transport properties observed in thermally treated graphite oxide (GO), which holds promise as an economical route to obtaining graphene. Graphene is a material consisting of a single atomic plane of carbon atoms and was first isolated as recently as 2004. Several isolation techniques have been investigated,...

  • Machine Learning Techniques to Model Species Interactions and Distributions Under Imperfect Detection

    Creator:
    Seo, Eugene
    Abstract:
    Ecological domains seeking to understand the environment and the behavior of species have received little attention in machine learning (ML), despite the fact that environmental changes have a significant impact on humans as well as ecosystems. Some ecological problems can be formulated similarly to other common ML applications, but there...

  • Deep Learning for Human and Biological Languages

    Creator:
    Hong, Junki
    Abstract:
    We explore the application of deep learning to the disparate fields of natural language processing and computational biology. Both the sentences uttered by humans as well as the RNA and protein sequences found within the cells of their bodies can be considered formal languages in computer science, as sets of...
