  • Explanations and Processes to Enable Humans to Assess AI with Respect to Manipulable Properties

    Creator:
    Dodge, Jonathan E.
    Abstract:
    Assessing AI systems is difficult. Humans rely on AI systems in increasing ways, both visible and invisible, meaning a variety of stakeholders need a variety of assessment tools (e.g., a professional auditor, a developer, and an end user all have different needs). We posit that it is possible to provide...

  • Test case prioritization

    Creator:
    Malishevsky, Alexey Grigorievich
    Abstract:
    Regression testing is an expensive software engineering activity intended to provide confidence that modifications to a software system have not introduced faults. Test case prioritization techniques help to reduce regression testing cost by ordering test cases in a way that better achieves testing objectives. In this thesis, we are interested...

  • 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...

  • 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....

  • New learning modes for sequential decision making

    Creator:
    Judah, Kshitij
    Abstract:
    This thesis considers the problem in which a teacher is interested in teaching action policies to computer agents for sequential decision making. The vast majority of policy learning algorithms o er teachers little flexibility in how policies are taught. In particular, one of two learning modes is typically considered: 1)...

    Creator:
    Yuan, Jialin
    Abstract:
    Learning to recognize objects is a fundamental and essential step in human perception and understanding of the world. Accordingly, research of object discovery across diverse modalities plays a pivotal role in the context of computer vision. This field not only contributes significantly to enhancing our understanding of visual information but...

  • 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...

  • Coordination for Scalable Multiple Robot Planning Under Temporal Uncertainty

    Creator:
    Marcon dos Santos, Gilberto
    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...

  • 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...
