  • muupi: An Abstract Syntax Tree based Mutation Testing Tool for Python 2.x Programs

    Creator:
    Liu, Xin
    Abstract:
    Mutation testing is one of the effective approaches measuring test adequacy of test suites. It is widely used in both academia and industry. Unfortunately, the adoption and practical use of mutation testing for Python 2.x programs face three obstacles. First, limited useful mutation operators. Existing mutation testing tools support very...

  • Evaluation functions in aerial image segmentation

    Creator:
    Langford, William T.
    Abstract:
    Remote sensing is the most practical way to acquire large amounts of land cover data for monitoring and understanding environmental change, so it is important to be able to map land cover from imagery. Maps defining land cover patches as polygons rather than pixels greatly improve processing efficiency in models...

  • Feedback-Based Random Test Generator for TSTL

    Creator:
    Kaneoka, Kazuki
    Abstract:
    Software testing is the process of evaluating the accuracy and performance of software, and automated software testing allows programmers to develop software more efficiently by decreasing testing costs. We compared two advanced random test generators, a Feedback-Directed Random Test Generator (FDR) and a Feedback-Controlled Random Test Generator (FCR), for an...

  • Reinforcement learning-based off-equilibrium incentives to approximate the VCG mechanism

    Creator:
    Moissinac, Béatrice
    Abstract:
    Auctions are used to solve resource allocation problem between many agents and many items in real-world settings. Unfortunately, in most cases, it is possible for selfish agents to manipulate the system for their own interest at the expense of the social welfare. Such manipulation can be prevented using the Vickrey-Clarke-Groves...

  • Scale effects on reinforced concrete beams strengthened for shear with discrete externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer U-wraps

    Creator:
    Dawson, Matthew Ryan
    Abstract:
    Current ACI design provisions for shear in reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) U-wraps may not adequately account for the effect of scale. This paper describes tests of 6 geometrically scaled beams to identify possible scale effects of such beams. Results indicated that effective...

  • Learning and Improving Policies for Probabilistic Planning Problems

    Creator:
    Issakkimuthu, Murugeswari
    Abstract:
    In this work, we study the problem of learning and improving policies for probabilistic planning problems. In the first part, we train neural network policies for probabilistic planning problems modeled as factored Markov decision problems. The objective is to train problem-specific neural networks via supervised learning to imitate the action...

    Creator:
    McGregor, Sean
    Abstract:
    Society faces many complex management problems, particularly in the area of shared public resources such as ecosystems. Existing decision making processes are often guided by personal experience and political ideology rather than state-of-the-art scientific understanding. This dissertation envisions a future in which multiple stakeholders are provided with computational tools for...

  • Learning ranking functions for efficient search

    Creator:
    Xu, Yuehua
    Abstract:
    This dissertation explores algorithms for learning ranking functions to efficiently solve search problems, with application to automated planning. Specifically, we consider the frameworks of beam search, greedy search, and randomized search, which all aim to maintain tractability at the cost of not guaranteeing completeness nor optimality. Our learning objective for...

    Creator:
    Mansergh, Ryan H.
    Abstract:
    Oxo-hydroxo Group 5 metal clusters are an untapped resource to study and advance aqueous solution processing of metal oxide thin films. The tetramethylammonium (TMA) hexatantalate salt (TMA6[H2Ta6O19]) yields dense Ta2O5 films (~95% of the bulk ß-Ta2O5 density) with atomically smooth surfaces (<4 Å root mean square surface roughness). This same...
