  • Update programming -- a safe approach to software maintenance

    Creator:
    Ren, Deling
    Abstract:
    Software maintenance accounts for a large portion of the software development cost, particularly the process of updating programs either to adapt for requirement change or to enhance design or efficiency. Currently, program updates are generally performed manually by programmers using text editors. This is an unreliable method because syntax and...

  • Microstructure of radiation damage in the uranium film and its backing materials irradiated with 136 MeV 136Xe+26, Microstructure of radiation damage in the uranium film and its backing materials irradiated with 136 MeV ¹³⁶Xe⁺²⁶

    Creator:
    Sadi, Supriyadi
    Abstract:
    Microstructure changes in uranium and uranium/metal alloys due to radiation damage are of great interest in nuclear science and engineering. Titanium has attracted attention because of its similarity to Zr. It has been proposed for use in the second generation of fusion reactors due to its resistance to radiation-induced swelling....

  • 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...

  • Interpretable Machine Learning: Applications in Biology and Genomics

    Creator:
    Danaee, Padideh
    Abstract:
    Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models impact our daily lives with applications in natural language modeling, image analysis, healthcare, genomics, and bioinformatics. The exponential growth of biological sequence data necessitates accompanying advances in computational methods. Although deep learning is highly effective for detecting and classifying biological sequences, challenges...

  • 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....

  • Learning MDP action models via discrete mixture trees

    Creator:
    Wynkoop, Michael S.
    Abstract:
    This thesis addresses the problem of learning dynamic Bayesian network (DBN) models to support reinforcement learning. It focuses on learning regression tree models of the conditional probability distributions of the DBNs. Existing algorithms presume that the stochasticity in the domain can be modeled as a deterministic function with additive noise....

  • Structured learning with latent variables : theory and algorithms

    Creator:
    Zhao, Kai
    Abstract:
    Most tasks in natural language processing (NLP) try to map structured input (e.g., sentence or word sequence) to some form of structured output (tag sequence, parse tree, semantic graph, translated/paraphrased/compressed sentence), a problem known as “structured prediction”. While various learning algorithms such as the perceptron, maximum entropy, and expectation-maximization have...

  • 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...

    Abstract:
    This dissertation incorporates coalition formation and probabilistic planning towards a domain-independent automated planning solution scalable to multiple heterogeneous robots in complex domains. The first research direction investigates the effectiveness of Task Fusion and introduces heuristics that improve task allocation and result in better quality plans, while requiring lower computational cost...

  • Machine learning in engineering : techniques to speed up numerical optimization

    Creator:
    Cerbone, G. (Giuseppe)
    Abstract:
    Many important application problems in engineering can be formalized as nonlinear optimization tasks. However, numerical methods for solving such problems are brittle and do not scale well. For example, these methods depend critically on choosing a good starting point from which to perform the optimization search. In high-dimensional spaces, numerical...
