  • 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...

  • The Ownership Monad

    Creator:
    McGirr, Michael G.
    Abstract:
    The Rust programming language is a systems programming language with a strong static type system. A central feature of Rust’s type system is its unique concept of “ownership”, which enables Rust to give a user safe, low-level control over resources without the overhead of garbage collection. In Haskell, most data...

  • Toward computer vision for understanding American football in video

    Creator:
    Hess, Robin W.
    Abstract:
    In this work, I examine the problem of understanding American football in video. In particular, I present several mid-level computer vision algorithms that each accomplish a different sub-task within a larger system for annotating, interpreting, and analyzing collections of American football video. The analysis of football video is useful in...

  • Adaptive Multiagent Traffic Management for Autonomous Robotic Systems

    Creator:
    Rebhuhn, Carrie
    Abstract:
    There is growing commercial interest in the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in urban environments, specifically for package delivery applications. However, the size, complexity and sheer numbers of expected UAVs makes conventional air traffic management that relies on human air traffic controllers infeasible. To enable UAVs to safely and...

  • Reaction Pathways of Oxo-Hydroxo Group 5 Clusters to Metal Oxide Thin Films

    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...

  • 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...

  • Learning greedy policies for the easy-first framework

    Creator:
    Xie, Jun
    Abstract:
    Easy-first, a search-based structured prediction approach, has been applied to many NLP tasks including dependency parsing and coreference resolution. This approach employs a learned greedy policy (action scoring function) to make easy decisions first, which constrains the remaining decisions and makes them easier. This thesis studies the problem of learning...

  • WebGD : Framework for web-based GIS/database applications

    Creator:
    Wangmutitakul, Paphun
    Abstract:
    We have developed a framework for Web-based GIS/database applications which allow users to insert, update, delete, and query data with a map interface displayed by Web browsers. The framework was designed so that a Web-based GIS application that uses ArcIMS as a map server can be easily created, customized, and...

  • Heuristic search in symbolic probability inference

    Creator:
    Pan, Yonghong
    Abstract:
    I present a new heuristic search approach to compute approximate answers for the probability query in belief nets. This approach can compute the 'best' bounds for a query in a period of any given time (if time permitted, it will get an exact value). It inherits the essence of Symbolic...

    Creator:
    Koo, Chang Sul
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, A nonlinear methodology for the control of the highly maneuverable, high performance aircraft HARV (F-18) is studied by using sliding-mode control (SMC). This control law, which takes a continuous function when the input constraints are not considered, satisfies the reachability condition by which concerned states are driven...
