  • Learning multiple non-redundant codebooks with word clustering for document classification

    Creator:
    Surve, Akshat Sudhakar
    Abstract:
    The problem of document classification has been widely studied in machine learning and data mining. In document classification, most of the popular algorithms are based on the bag-of-words representation. Due to the high dimensionality of the bag-of-words representation, significant research has been conducted to reduce the dimensionality via different approaches....

  • Semantic embodied navigation : developing agents that navigate from language and vision

    Creator:
    Krantz, Jacob
    Abstract:
    Autonomous robotic agents are on their way to becoming in-home personal assistants, construction assistants, and warehouse workers. The degree of autonomy of such systems is reflected by the manner in which we specify goals to them; the abstraction of low-level commands to high-level goals goes hand-in-hand with increased autonomy. In...

  • Learning to Estimate Multi-Relation Aggregation Functions

    Creator:
    Jadhav, Rashmi Suresh
    Abstract:
    Multi-relation aggregation queries process the join operator before computing the aggregation function. This join is arguably the most costly operation since traditional join algorithms spend majority of their time trying to join the parts of the relations that do not generate any output tuples. This causes slow response times with...

  • Collaborative Online Learning For Join Processing

    Creator:
    Xie, Mian
    Abstract:
    Relational binary operators, such as join, are arguably the most costly and frequently used operations in relational data systems. In many join algorithms, the majority of the process time is spent on scanning and attempting to join the parts of the relations that do not satisfy the join condition and...

  • Anomaly Detection and Probabilistic Diagnosis for Automated Data Quality Control

    Creator:
    Zemicheal, Tadesse H.
    Abstract:
    Advances in sensor technology are greatly expanding the range of quantities that can be measured while simultaneously reducing the cost. However, deployed sensors drift out of calibration and fail, so every sensor network requires quality control procedures to promptly detect these failures. To address these problems, we propose a two-level...

  • Improving automated email tagging with implicit feedback

    Creator:
    Sorower, Mohammad Shahed
    Abstract:
    Machine learning systems are generally trained offline using ground truth data that has been labeled by experts. However, these batch training methods are not a good fit for many applications, especially in the cases where complete ground truth data is not available for offline training. In addition, batch methods do...

  • Representationally Robust and Scalable Learning over Relational Databases

    Creator:
    Picado Leiva, Jose Manuel
    Abstract:
    Learning novel concepts from relational databases is an important problem with applications in several disciplines, such as data management, natural language processing, and bioinformatics. For a learning algorithm to be effective, the input data should be clean and in some desired representation. However, real-world data is usually heterogeneous – the...

    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...

  • 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...

  • 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...
