  • Web-PST : Web-based Pesticide Screening Tool

    Creator:
    Manda, Ashwin Prasad
    Abstract:
    We have developed a web-based software tool for evaluating the potential risk of pesticides on the surrounding environment. The software tool is called Web-based Pesticide Screening Tool (Web-PST). It uses the formulas and standards specified by the Soil/Pesticide Interaction Screening Procedure Version II (SPISP II). Web-PST closely models the stand-alone...

  • 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...

  • Learning-based Control of Experimental Hybrid Fuel Cell Power Plant

    Creator:
    Gabler, Andrew
    Abstract:
    Direct red Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) Turbine hybrid plants have the potential to dramatically increase power plant efficiency, decrease emissions, and provide fast response to transient loads. The US Department of Energy's (DOE) Hybrid Performance Project is an experimental hybrid SOFC plant, built at the National Energy Technology Laboratory...

  • Machine learning methods for public policy : simulation, optimization, and visualization

    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...

  • Correct abstraction in counter-planning : a knowledge compilation approach

    Creator:
    Flann, Nicholas S.
    Abstract:
    Knowledge compilation improves search-intensive problem-solvers that are easily specified but inefficient. One promising approach improves efficiency by constructing a database of problem-instance/best-action pairs that replace problem-solving search with efficient lookup. The database is constructed by reverse enumeration- expanding the complete search space backwards, from the terminal problem instances. This approach...

  • Using RUBI to partition agents in air traffic problems with hard constraints and reward shaping

    Creator:
    Curran, William
    Abstract:
    Air traffic flow management over the U.S. airpsace is a difficult problem. Current management approaches lead to hundreds of thousands of hours of delay, costing billions of dollars annually. Weather and airport conditions may instigate this delay, but routing decisions balancing delay with congestion contribute significantly to the propagation of...

  • Model-based approximation methods for reinforcement learning

    Creator:
    Wang, Xin
    Abstract:
    The thesis focuses on model-based approximation methods for reinforcement learning with large scale applications such as combinatorial optimization problems. First, the thesis proposes two new model-based methods to stablize the value–function approximation for reinforcement learning. The first one is the BFBP algorithm, a batch-like reinforcement learning process which iterates between...

  • 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...
