  • 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...

  • Parsing with Recurrent Neural Networks

    Creator:
    Cross, James Henry, III
    Abstract:
    Machine learning models for natural language processing have traditionally relied on large numbers of discrete features, built up from atomic categories such as word forms and part-of-speech labels, which are considered completely distinct from each other. Recently however, the advent of dense feature representations coupled with deep learning techniques has...

  • Decentralized Multi-Robot Exploration with Sparse Communication through Deep Imitation Learning

    Creator:
    Senewiratne, Yomal K.
    Abstract:
    We present a method for decentralized, multi-robot exploration in adverse environments where communication is minimal. A key conceptual feature of our method is enabling implicit coordination between robots by training a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as a heuristic for planning using Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS). Our method consists of...

  • Deep Convolutional Network on Point Clouds for 3D Scene Understanding

    Creator:
    Wu, Wenxuan
    Abstract:
    As one of the most popular data types, the point cloud is widely used in various appli- cations, including computer vision, computer graphics and robotics. The capability to directly measure 3D point clouds is invaluable in those applications as depth information could remove a lot of the segmentation ambiguities in...

  • The density signature

    Creator:
    Migler-VonDollen, Theresa
    Abstract:
    In real networks, identifying dense regions is of great importance. For example, in a network that represents academic collaboration, authors within the densest component of the graph tend to be the most prolific. Dense subgraphs often identify communities in social networks. And dense subgraphs can be used to discover regulatory...
