  • Collaborative filtering with probability and collaborative filtering with privacy

    Creator:
    Yang, Min
    Abstract:
    "Collaborative filtering has seen considerable success in the areas regarding information overload and e-commerce, while the current developed systems are flawed in several respects. Two approaches, the distribution-based algorithm and the blurring profile solution, are proposed to address several outstanding issues. The main findings of this research include: • The...

  • Information Theoretical Analysis of Self-Similar Trees

    Creator:
    Chunikhina, Evgenia V.
    Abstract:
    Tree-like patterns are ubiquitous in nature. Botanical trees, river networks, and blood systems are the most well-known examples of complex hierarchical systems met in observations. Interestingly, many of such systems exhibit statistical self-similarity. There are two main types of self-similarity: Horton self-similarity and Tokunaga self-similarity. Although there is an increased...

  • Designing and understanding information retrieval systems using collaborative filtering in an academic library environment

    Creator:
    Jung, Seikyung
    Abstract:
    Accessing information on the Web has become ingrained into our daily lives, and we seek information from many different sources, including conference and journal publications, personal web pages, and others. Increasingly, web-based information retrieval systems such as web-based search engines, library on-line catalog systems, and subscription-based federated search systems are...

  • Efficient decoder design for error correction codes

    Creator:
    He, Jinjin
    Abstract:
    Error correction codes (ECCs) have been widely used in communication systems and storage devices. Nowadays, the rapid development of integrated circuit technologies makes feasible the implementation of powerful ECCs such as turbo code and low-density parity-check (LDPC) code. However, these high-performance codes require complex decoding algorithms, resulting in large hardware...

  • Implementation of an information management system for vehicle preventative maintenance using a 4GL

    Creator:
    Hurng, Jyh-Mirng
    Abstract:
    The Vehicle Preventative Maintenance System (VPMS) is a 4GL application system that keep track of information required for vehicle maintenance. It can be used to schedule routine vehicle maintenance, and to produce complete and accurate vehicle cost reports, enabling its users to optimize vehicle maintenance. In this report, after describing...

  • Information theoretic approach to quantization and classification for signal processing, communications, and machine learning applications

    Creator:
    Thuan Nguyen D.
    Abstract:
    There are five main contributions of this dissertation. The first contribution is new closed-form expressions for channel capacity of a new class of channel matrices. The second contribution is the discovery of the structure for optimal binary quantizer and the associated methods for finding an optimal quantizer that maximizes mutual...

  • Advances in side-channel cryptanalysis : microarchitectural attacks

    Creator:
    Aciiçmez, Onur
    Abstract:
    Cryptographic devices leak timing and power consumption information that is easily measurable, radiation of various levels, and more. Such devices also have additional inputs, other than plaintext and keys, like voltage, which can be modified to force the device to produce certain faulty outputs that can be used to reveal...

  • Secure socket layer protocol simulation in Java

    Creator:
    Karri, Nagendra
    Abstract:
    This project aims to study the performance of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Protocol implemented in JAVA for web applications. Secure Sockets Layer protocol allows client/server applications to communicate in a way that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, or message forgery. In particular, this project focuses on an implementation of...

  • Target-based coverage extension of 802.11 MANETs via constrained UAV mobility

    Creator:
    Johnson, Taylor N.
    Abstract:
    MANETs are known to be useful in situations where mobile nodes need to communicate and coordinate in dynamic environments with no access to fixed network infrastructure. However, connectivity problems can occur when sub-groups within a MANET move out of communication range from one another. The increasingly prolific use of UAVs...
