  • ThreshKnot: Thresholded ProbKnot for Improved RNA Secondary Structure Prediction

    Creator:
    Zhang, Liang
    Abstract:
    RNA structure prediction is a challenging problem, especially with pseudoknots. Recently, there has been a shift from the classical minimum free energy-based methods (MFE) to partition function-based ones that assemble structures based on base-pairing probabilities. Two typical examples of the latter group are the popular maximum expected accuracy (MEA) method...

  • Efficient training and feature induction in sequential supervised learning

    Creator:
    Hao, Guohua
    Abstract:
    Sequential supervised learning problems arise in many real applications. This dissertation focuses on two important research directions in sequential supervised learning: efficient training and feature induction. In the direction of efficient training, we study the training of conditional random fields (CRFs), which provide a flexible and powerful model for sequential...

  • Weak-supervision : Probabilistic Models and Inference

    Creator:
    Pham, Anh
    Abstract:
    In supervised learning, label information can be provided at different levels of granularity. For small datasets, it is possible to acquire a label for each data instance. However, in the big-data regime, this fine granularity approach is prohibitively costly. For example, in semi-supervised learning, only a limited number of samples...
