  • Finding and Using Chokepoints in Stratagus

    Creator:
    Brewster, Benjamin
    Abstract:
    This paper describes a method for finding areas of interest on a two-dimensional grid map used in the real-time strategy engine Stratagus. The method involves discovering chokepoints where through all simulation agents must pass. Using a set of tunable parameters, a full set of chokepoints are located. The redundant and...

  • Using Web Services for Image Processing in a Desktop Widgets Engine

    Creator:
    Le, Hien
    Abstract:
    Desktop widget engines have emerged as an alternative for completing simple tasks without the need for a full-blown application or constant user interaction. Widgets can simply display data in a compact and visually appealing manner (such as stock tickers, weather forecasts, and news notifications), or go so far as to...

  • Natural language date-time parsing in Chandler™

    Creator:
    Chhajed, Darshana
    Abstract:
    The increasing need to share and synchronize personal information, such as schedules, tasks and events, amongst users has lead to the development of inter-personal information management software like ChandlerTM. Chandler is being developed in Python at the Open Source Applications Foundation, San Francisco. Before I started working on the project...

  • Enhancing WebGen5 with access control, AJAX support, and editable-and-insertable select form

    Creator:
    Imaeda, Mariko
    Abstract:
    WebGen is a software tool for generating Web scripts automatically for a Web-based database application. In this project, access control, AJAX support, and editable-and-insertable table mechanisms were added to WebGen. With our access control mechanism, an access-control level can be specified for each table. In access control level 1, for...

  • Reinforcement Learning for Network Routing

    Creator:
    Yalamanchi, Hema Jyothi
    Abstract:
    Efficient routing of information packets in dynamically changing communication networks requires routing policies that adapt to changes in load levels, traffic patterns and network topologies. Reinforcement Learning (RL) is an area of artificial intelligence that studies algorithms that dynamically optimize their performance based on experience in an environment. RL, thus,...

  • OSU Fee Tracking

    Creator:
    Wu, Zhi
    Abstract:
    This project describes a web-based information management system which has been widely used by staff members and students at OSU. Without this system, it was very hard for the staff members to manage a variety of fees; for example, if they want to change a certain fee, staff members had...

  • Effective decision-theoretic assistance through relational hierarchical models

    Creator:
    Natarajan, Sriraam
    Abstract:
    Building intelligent computer assistants has been a long-cherished goal of AI. Many intelligent assistant systems were built and fine-tuned to specific application domains. In this work, we develop a general model of assistance that combines three powerful ideas: decision theory, hierarchical task models and probabilistic relational languages. We use the...

  • Gender differences in end-user debugging strategies

    Creator:
    Narayanan, Vaishnavi
    Abstract:
    There has been little prior research reporting strategy usage in end-user problem solving, and even less using gender as a factor. Without this type of information, enduser programming systems cannot know the “target” at which to aim, if they are to support male and female end-user programmers’ debugging. As a...

  • An automated web crawl methodology to analyze the online privacy landscape

    Creator:
    Sarkar, Chandan
    Abstract:
    Protecting end-users privacy and building trust are the two most important factors needed to support the growth of ecommerce. The increased dependence on the Internet for a wide variety of daily transactions causes a corresponding loss in privacy for many users, as virtually all websites collect data from users directly...

  • A probabilistic model for anomaly detection in remote sensor streams

    Creator:
    Dereszynski, Ethan W.
    Abstract:
    Remote sensors are becoming the standard for observing and recording ecological data in the field. Such sensors can record data at fine temporal resolutions, and they can operate under extreme conditions prohibitive to human access. Unfortunately, sensor data streams exhibit many kinds of errors ranging from corrupt communications to partial...
