  • Agile Bipedal Maneuvers Optimized then Learned from Single Rigid-Body Model Dynamics

    Creator:
    Batke, Ryan
    Abstract:
    As bipedal robots move ever closer to being integrated into all manner of real world envi-ronments there is a necessity to push their dynamic capabilities to meet or exceed those of humans and animals. Advancements must be made to address ordinary challenges that arise everyday in the same environments that...

  • Action Segmentation with Limited Supervision

    Creator:
    Li, Jun
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we address action segmentation in videos under limited supervision. The goal of action segmentation is to predict an action class for each frame of a video. The limited supervision means ground truth labels of video frames are not available in training. We focus on three types of...

  • Counterfactual States for Atari Agents via Generative Deep Learning

    Creator:
    Olson, Matthew L.
    Abstract:
    Although deep reinforcement learning agents have produced impressive results in many domains, their decision making is difficult to explain to humans. To address this problem, past work has mainly focused on explaining why an action was chosen in a given state. A different type of explanation that is useful is...

  • Toward Disentangling the Activations of the Deep Networks via Low-dimensional Embedding and Non-negative Factorization

    Creator:
    Khorram, Saeed
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, we introduce a novel Explanation Neural Network (XNN) to explain the predictions made by a deep network. The XNN works by embedding a high-dimensional activation vector of a deep network layer non-linearly into a low-dimensional explanation space while retaining faithfulness i.e., the original deep learning predictions can...

  • Uncertainty in Deep Learning with Implicit Neural Networks

    Creator:
    Ratzlaff, Neale
    Abstract:
    The ability to extract uncertainties from predictions is crucial for the adoption of deep learning systems to safety-critical applications. Uncertainty estimates can be used as a failure signal, which is necessary for automating complex tasks where safety is a concern. Furthermore, current deep learning systems do not provide uncertainty estimates,...

  • 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...

  • Characterizing and Addressing Dataset Shift with Deep Learning

    Creator:
    Olson, Matthew L.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation delves into understanding, characterizing, and addressing dataset shift in deep learning, a pervasive issue for deployed machine learning systems. Integral aspects of the problem are examined: We start with the use of counterfactual explanations in order to characterize the behavior of deep reinforcement learning agents in visual input...

  • Protein secondary structure prediction using conditional random fields and profiles

    Creator:
    Shen, Rongkun
    Abstract:
    Protein secondary structure prediction plays a pivotal role in predicting protein folding in three-dimensions. Its task is to assign each residue one of the three secondary structure classes helix, strand, or random coil. This is an instance of the problem of sequential supervised learning in machine learning. This thesis describes...

  • Adaptive Movement Intent Decoding for Intuitive Control of Neuroprostheses

    Creator:
    George, Damon A.
    Abstract:
    Movement intent decoders, which interpret volitional movement intent from human bioelectric signals, can be incorporated into modern neuroprostheses to offer people living with limb loss or paralysis the potential to regain their lost motor control. Machine learning methods have become the research standard for continuous decoders with high degrees of...

  • A Deep Action Segmentation and Its Explanation with a Dictionary of Meaningful Attention Maps

    Creator:

    Abstract:
    This thesis addresses the problem of temporal action segmentation in videos, where the goal is to label every video frame with the appropriate action class present. We focus on the domain of NFL football videos, where action classes represent common football play types. For action segmentation, we use a temporal...
