  • Semantic embodied navigation : developing agents that navigate from language and vision

    Creator:
    Krantz, Jacob
    Abstract:
    Autonomous robotic agents are on their way to becoming in-home personal assistants, construction assistants, and warehouse workers. The degree of autonomy of such systems is reflected by the manner in which we specify goals to them; the abstraction of low-level commands to high-level goals goes hand-in-hand with increased autonomy. In...

  • Automatic scheduling and dynamic load sharing of parallel computations on heterogeneous workstation clusters

    Creator:
    Jacob, Joseph, 1971-
    Abstract:
    Parallel computing on heterogeneous workstation clusters has proved to be a very efficient use of available resources, increasing their overall utilization. However, for it to be a viable alternative to expensive, dedicated parallel machines, a number of key issues need to be resolved. One of the major challenges of heterogeneous...

  • Efficient Oblivious Access to Trees

    Creator:
    Hackebeil, Gabriel A.
    Abstract:
    The outsourcing of data storage and related infrastructure to third-party services in the cloud is a trend that has gained considerable momentum in the last decade due to the savings it affords companies in both capital and operational costs. Although encryption can alleviate some of the privacy concerns associated with...

  • 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...

  • Machine Learning Techniques to Model Species Interactions and Distributions Under Imperfect Detection

    Creator:
    Seo, Eugene
    Abstract:
    Ecological domains seeking to understand the environment and the behavior of species have received little attention in machine learning (ML), despite the fact that environmental changes have a significant impact on humans as well as ecosystems. Some ecological problems can be formulated similarly to other common ML applications, but there...

  • Electra : integrating constraints, condition-based dispatching, and features exclusion into the multiparadigm language Leda

    Creator:
    Zamel, Nabil M.
    Abstract:
    Multiparadigm languages are languages that are designed to support more than one style of programming. Leda is a strongly-typed multiparadigm programming language that supports imperative, functional, object-oriented, and logic programming. The constraint programming paradigm is a declarative style of programming where the programmer is able to state relationships among some...

  • Scheduling non-uniform parallel loops on MIMD computers

    Creator:
    Liu, Jie
    Abstract:
    Parallel loops are one of the main sources of parallelism in scientific applications, and many parallel loops do not have a uniform iteration execution time. To achieve good performance for such applications on a parallel computer, iterations of a parallel loop have to be assigned to processors in such a...

  • 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...

  • Computer vision for geometrical analysis of bridge gusset plates

    Creator:
    Varakantham, Shravya
    Abstract:
    Gusset plates are an important component of bridges. They are thick sheets of steel that join steel members together using fasteners and also strengthen their joint. Transportation agencies regularly evaluate and rate their inventories of gusset plate connections using visual inspection, which is very costly. To address this issue, we...
