  • Adaptation-based programming

    Creator:
    Bauer, Tim
    Abstract:
    Partial programming is a field of study where users specify an outline or skeleton of a program, but leave various parts undefined. The undefined parts are then completed by an external mechanism to form a complete program. Adaptation-Based Programming (ABP) is a method of partial programming that utilizes techniques from...

  • AOPS : an abstraction oriented programming system for literate programming

    Creator:
    Shum, Stephen M.
    Abstract:
    The practice of literate programming is not widespread because existing literate programming systems have some undesirable characteristics such as programming language and text processor dependence and lack of flexible tools for viewing and manipulation of the source file. This dissertation describes the literate programming system AOPS (Abstraction Oriented Programming System)...

  • Information foraging in debugging

    Creator:
    Lawrance, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Programmers spend a substantial fraction of their debugging time by navigating through source code, yet little is known about how programmers navigate. With the continuing growth in size and complexity of software, this fraction of time is likely to increase, which presents challenges to those seeking both to understand and...

  • 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...

  • End-user software engineering in the spreadsheet paradigm

    Creator:
    Abraham, Robin
    Abstract:
    Spreadsheets are among the most widely used end-user programming systems. Unfortunately, there is a high incidence of errors in end-user spreadsheets, and some of these errors have high impact. In this dissertation, we describe techniques we have developed to help end users develop safer spreadsheets. As part of our research,...

  • Towards Direct Simultaneous Speech Translation

    Creator:
    Chen, Junkun
    Abstract:
    Simultaneous speech translation (SimulST) is widely useful in many cross-lingual communication scenarios, including multinational conferences and international traveling. Since text-based simultaneous machine translation (SimulMT) has achieved great success in recent years. The conventional cascaded approach for SimulST uses a pipeline of streaming ASR followed by simultaneous MT but suffers from...

  • Characterizing and Addressing Dataset Shift with Deep Learning

    Creator:
    Olson, Matthew L.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation delves into understanding, characterizing, and addressing dataset shift in deep learning, a pervasive issue for deployed machine learning systems. Integral aspects of the problem are examined: We start with the use of counterfactual explanations in order to characterize the behavior of deep reinforcement learning agents in visual input...

  • Computational Elucidation of the Regulatory SNPs in the Non-Coding Regions of the Human Genome

    Creator:
    Yao, Yao
    Abstract:
    We describe a series of novel computational models, CERENKOV (Computational Elucidation of the REgulatory NonKOding Variome) and its successors CERENKOV2, CERENKOV3, and Convolutional CERENKOV3, for discriminating regulatory single nucleotide polymorphisms (rSNPs) from non-regulatory SNPs within non-coding genetic loci. The CERENKOV models are designed for recognizing rSNPs in the context of...
