  • Interactive fault localization techniques to empower the debugging efforts of end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Ruthruff, Joseph Ronald
    Abstract:
    End users develop more software than any other group of programmers, using software authoring devices such as e-mail filtering editors, by-demonstration macro builders, and spreadsheet environments. Despite this, there has been only a little research on finding ways to help these programmers with the dependability of the software they create....

  • Long Wave Amplification in a Coral-Reef Lagoon

    Creator:
    Bheeroo, Vivek Anand
    Abstract:
    A series of laboratory experiments were conducted to study the wave field in the inner lagoon excited by ‘long’ incident waves. Three cases were considered: Cases A, B and C presenting incident waves of wavelength with factors of 1, 2 and 2.5 times the width of the reef respectively. The...

  • UCT for tactical assault battles in real-time strategy games

    Creator:
    Balla, Radha-Krishna
    Abstract:
    We consider the problem of tactical assault planning in real-time strategy games where a team of friendly agents must launch an assault on an enemy. This problem offers many challenges including a highly dynamic and uncertain environment, multiple agents, durative actions, numeric attributes, and different optimization objectives. While the dynamics...

  • Improving the Effectiveness of Answering Keyword Queries Using Effective Subsets

    Creator:
    Khodadadi, Abtin
    Abstract:
    Most database users do not know formal query languages, such as SQL, and prefer to express their information needs using usable query languages, such as keyword queries. Keyword queries, however, are inherently ambiguous and challenging for the database systems to understand and answer effectively. We propose a novel approach to...

  • A Benchmarking Study of Unsupervised Anomaly Detection Algorithms

    Creator:
    Emmott, Andrew F.
    Abstract:
    It is common practice in the unsupervised anomaly detection literature to create experimental benchmarks by sampling from existing supervised learning datasets. We seek to improve this practice by identifying four dimensions important to real-world anomaly detection applications --- point difficulty, clusteredness of anomalies, relevance of features, and relative frequency of...

  • Metacontent based techniques for the regression testing of component based software : a case study

    Creator:
    Chattopadhyay, Soumya
    Abstract:
    Component based software technologies are viewed as essential for creating the software systems of the future. However the use of externally provided components has serious drawbacks for a wide range of software engineering activities often because of a lack of information about the components. One such drawback involves validation of...

  • Porting and optimizing a routing library for Dataparallel C on the nCUBE 2 system

    Creator:
    Sivaramapuram, Krishna
    Abstract:
    Dataparallel C has been designed for various kinds of architectures and was devel­oped jointly at University of New Hampshire and Oregon State University. This project dealt with porting the libraries to the nCUBE 2 system and helping a user compile his programs on nCUBE 2 directly from a Sun workstation...

  • Re-understanding Finite-State Representations of Recurrent Policy Networks

    Creator:
    Danesh, Mohamad H.
    Abstract:
    We propose an approach for understanding control policies represented as recurrent neural networks. Recent work has approached this problem by transforming such recurrent policy networks into finite-state machines (FSM) and then analyzing the equivalent minimized FSM. While this led to interesting insights, the minimization process can obscure a deeper understanding...

  • A Study of Temporal Convolutional Neural Networks for Music Language Modeling as Applied to Automatic Music Transcription

    Creator:
    Meyn, Matthew
    Abstract:
    Automatic music transcription (AMT) is the task, given an acoustic representation of music, to recover a symbolic notation of the written notes expressed by the sound. Transcribing music with multiple notes sounding simultaneously is difficult for both humans and machines. Much existing work on AMT has focused on suitable acoustic...
