  • Analysis of Convolutional Neural Network Image Pre-processing Methods

    Creator:
    Jacobsen, Matthew
    Abstract:
    Oceanic plankton have both a large impact on our oceans health and atmo- spheric balance of Co2. The overall health of planktonic life is determined by many physical, chemical, and ecological factors, that drive taxonomic abundances and the relative amount of non-living biomass called detritus. Recent advances in microscopic imaging...

  • Understanding and supporting end-user debugging strategies

    Creator:
    Grigoreanu, Valentina I.
    Abstract:
    End users' programs are fraught with errors, costing companies millions of dollars. One reason may be that researchers and tool designers have not yet focused on end-user debugging strategies. To investigate this possibility, this dissertation presents eight empirical studies and a new strategy-based end-user debugging tool for Excel, called StratCel....

  • Evaluating the Effects of Multiple Environmental Stressors on the Gulf of Alaska Pacific Cod Fishery Using a Dynamic Stress-Scape Framework

    Creator:
    Blaisdell, Josiah
    Abstract:
    The Gulf of Alaska (GOA) is home to the most productive fisheries in the world. In 2019, 2.2 million metric tons of fish were shipped from Alaska to destinations all over the world (NOAA Fisheries, 2019). From 2014-2016 and, more recently, in 2019 the largest heatwaves in recorded history caused...

  • Similarity inheritance : a model of inheritance for declarative visual programming languages

    Creator:
    Djang, Rebecca W. (Rebecca Walpole)
    Abstract:
    Declarative visual programming languages (VPLs), including spreadsheets, make up a large portion of both research and commercial VPLs. Spreadsheets in particular enjoy a wide audience, including end users. Unfortunately, spreadsheets and most other declarative VPLs still suffer from some of the problems that have been solved in other languages, such...

  • Knowledge Base Completion Leveraging Natural Language Data

    Creator:
    Shahbazi, Hamed
    Abstract:
    Information about named entities (real-world objects) is usually harvested from different sources and organized as a multiple relational directed graph in Knowledge Bases (KBs). KBs play essential roles in many NLP modules including question answering, fact-checking, search engines, etc. KBs are big but still incomplete: relational information among entities is...

  • Theory and Implementation of a Variational Database Management System

    Creator:
    Ataei, Parisa S.
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, I present the variational database management system, a formal framework and its implementation for representing variation in relational databases and managing variational information needs. A variational database is intended to support any kind of variation in a database. Specific kinds of variation in databases have already been...

    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...
