  • Behavior graphs for data-driven animation of 3d characters

    Creator:
    Srinivasan, Madhusudhanan
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we present a user-in-the-loop method for the design of an interactive motion data structure that benefits from the advantages of both motion graphs and blend-based techniques. Our novel approach automatically analyzes a traditional motion graph built from labeled motion clips. The result is a more condensed, coarser...

  • 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....

  • Rare category detection using hierarchical mean shift

    Creator:
    Vatturi, Pavan Kumar
    Abstract:
    Many applications in surveillance, monitoring, scientific discovery, and data cleaning require the identification of anomalies. Although many methods have been developed to identify statistically significant anomalies, a more difficult task is to identify anomalies that are both interesting and statistically significant. Category detection is an emerging area of machine learning...

  • Activity recognition in desktop environments

    Creator:
    Shen, Jianqiang
    Abstract:
    Knowledge workers are struggling in the information flood. There is a growing interest in intelligent desktop environments that help knowledge workers organize their daily life. Intelligent desktop environments allow the desktop user to define a set of “activities” that characterize the user’s desktop work. These environments then attempt to identify...

  • Scaling multiagent reinforcement learning

    Creator:
    Proper, Scott
    Abstract:
    Reinforcement learning in real-world domains suffers from three curses of dimensionality: explosions in state and action spaces, and high stochasticity or "outcome space" explosion. Multiagent domains are particularly susceptible to these problems. This thesis describes ways to mitigate these curses in several different multiagent domains, including real-time delivery of products...

  • Path-based dynamic impact analysis

    Creator:
    Law, James (James Bruce)
    Abstract:
    Successful software systems evolve over their lifetimes through the cumulative changes made by software maintainers. As software evolves, the problems resulting from software change worsen, exacerbated by increased system size and complexity, lack of program understanding, amount of effort required to make changes, and number of personnel involved. Experience shows...

  • Gender HCI issues in end-user programming

    Creator:
    Beckwith, Laura A.
    Abstract:
    Until recently, research has not considered whether the design of end-user programming environments, such as spreadsheets, multimedia authoring languages, and CAD systems, affects males and females differently. As a result, we began investigating how the two genders are impacted by end-user programming software and whether attention to gender differences is...
