  • Variant Annotation

    Creator:
    He, Jun
    Abstract:
    With the development of technologies in genome sequencing and variant detection, a huge number of variants are detected. To further analyze the variants, it requires an efficient tool to annotate the functional effect of variants. This project managed to develop an efficient program to annotate the functional effect of variants...

  • Exploration of regression models for cancer noncoding mutation recurrence

    Creator:
    Xu, Tanjin
    Abstract:
    An important impact of the genome technology revolution will be the elucidation of mechanisms of cancer pathogenesis, leading to improvements in the diagnosis of cancer and the selection of cancer treatment. Integrated with current well-studied massive knowledge and findings about the role of protein-coding mutations in cancer, demystifying the functional...

  • Trip Poll: Plan before you ride

    Creator:
    Baisetti, Rama Krishna
    Abstract:
    People like going on trips with friends and tend to plan their trips well in advance to have the best possible experience of a destination and get the most out of the places they visit and/or the activities they plan to partake in. Right now, the Internet provides a wealth...

  • A Formal Foundation for Variational Programming Using the Choice Calculus

    Creator:
    Hubbard, Spencer
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, we present semantic equivalence rules for an extension of the choice calculus and sound operations for an implementation of variational lists. The choice calculus is a calculus for describing variation and the formula choice calculus is an extension with formulas. We prove semantic equivalence rules for the...

  • Visualization and analysis of sensor data for detecting microclimate cold air pools

    Creator:
    Singh, Satpreet Harcharan
    Abstract:
    Cold air pools are spatiotemporal phenomena that occur when cold air from higher elevations roll down the slope to accumulate in lower elevations. Behaviors like this lead to microclimate anomalies such as the city of Corvallis (Oregon) experiencing persistent cold weather even on a sunny day. We analyze multivariate temperature...

  • Learning with Limited Labeled Data in Natural Language Processing

    Creator:
    Obeidat, Rasha
    Abstract:
    The advent of deep learning models leads to a substantial improvement in a wide range of NLP tasks, achieving state-of-art performances without any hand-crafted features. However, training deep models requires a massive amount of labeled data. Labeling new data as a new task or domain emerges consumes time and efforts...

  • 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...

  • Causal Structure Learning from Experiments and Observations

    Creator:
    Sinha, Meghamala
    Abstract:
    In this research, we address the problem of learning a single causal network structure from multiple dataset generated from different experiments. The experiments can be observational or interventional. We assume that each dataset is generated by an unknown causal network altered under different experimental conditions (interventions, manipulation or perturbation). As...

  • Learning with Partial Supervision for Clustering and Classification

    Creator:
    Pei, Yuanli
    Abstract:
    In the field of machine learning, clustering and classification are two fundamental tasks. Traditionally, clustering is an unsupervised method, where no supervision about the data is available for learning; classification is a supervised task, where fully-labeled data are collected for training a classifier. In some scenarios, however, we may not...

  • Object detection in biological images using a search-based framework

    Creator:
    Lam, Michael
    Abstract:
    This thesis addresses a basic problem in computer vision, that of semantic labeling of images. Our work is aimed at object detection in biological images for evolutionary biology research. In particular, our goal is to detect nematocysts in Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images. This biological domain presents challenges for existing...
