  • Supervised Hierarchical Segmentation for Bird Bioacoustics

    Creator:
    Tjahja, Teresa V.
    Abstract:
    Bioacoustics analysis can be used to conduct environmental monitoring by detecting the presence of birds species. This analysis usually involves identifying the species from their calls. In most frameworks, bird song syllables are extracted from audio recordings and individual syllables are input to a classifier to identify the species. Extraction...

  • On the Structure of Unconditional UC Hybrid Protocols

    Creator:
    Shirley, Morgan
    Abstract:
    Two parties, Alice and Bob, hold inputs x and y respectively. They wish to compute a function f of their inputs. In an ideal world, f(x, y) could be calculated by sending the inputs to a trusted third party. In the absence of such a third party, Alice and Bob...

  • Methods for cost-sensitive learning

    Creator:
    Margineantu, Dragos D.
    Abstract:
    Many approaches for achieving intelligent behavior of automated (computer) systems involve components that learn from past experience. This dissertation studies computational methods for learning from examples, for classification and for decision making, when the decisions have different non-zero costs associated with them. Many practical applications of learning algorithms, including transaction...

  • A graphical editor for OSU v3.0

    Creator:
    Lin, Fangchen
    Abstract:
    Development of graphical user interface (GUI) applications is difficult since the process can be both complicated and tedious. We propose a solution directed at reducing programming time and effort required to build a GUI application. Our solution is based on the Petri Network, the Oregon SpeedCode Universe (OSU) Application Framework,...

  • FluffyHome : Find a pet‐sitter for free

    Creator:
    Zhang, Chendi
    Abstract:
    More than 50% of American families have at least one pet nowadays, and the number is still rising. Pet caring needs are also growing with it. When people need to leave home for work or vacation, leaving pets home alone might bother some pet owners. Unfortunately, existing approaches all have...

  • Efficient Private Matching for Private Databases

    Creator:
    Trieu, Thi Ni Ni
    Abstract:
    Private matching (PM) is a key cryptographic primitive in secure computation that allows several parties to jointly compute some functions depending on their private inputs. Indeed, this primitive has many practical applications. For instance, in online advertising, two companies may wish to find their common customers for a joint marketing...

  • A router architecture for QoS capable clusters

    Creator:
    Subramanian, Madhusudhanan Anantha
    Abstract:
    Interconnection Networks have been used as a high performance communication fabric in parallel processor architectures. Parallel processors built using off-the-shelf components, called clusters, are becoming increasingly attractive because of their high performance to cost ratio over parallel computers. Many web servers and database servers make efficient use of clustering from...

  • New learning modes for sequential decision making

    Creator:
    Judah, Kshitij
    Abstract:
    This thesis considers the problem in which a teacher is interested in teaching action policies to computer agents for sequential decision making. The vast majority of policy learning algorithms o er teachers little flexibility in how policies are taught. In particular, one of two learning modes is typically considered: 1)...

  • Integrating learning and search for structured prediction

    Creator:
    Doppa, Janardhan Rao
    Abstract:
    We are witnessing the rise of the data-driven science paradigm, in which massive amounts of data - much of it collected as a side-effect of ordinary human activity - can be analyzed to make sense of the data and to make useful predictions. To fully realize the promise of this...

  • A browser-based tool for designing query interfaces to scientific databases

    Creator:
    Newsome, Mark Ronald, 1960-
    Abstract:
    Scientists in the biological sciences need to retrieve information from a variety of data collections, traditionally maintained in SQL databases, in order to conduct research. Because current assistant tools are designed primarily for business and financial users, scientists have been forced to use the notoriously difficult command-line SQL interface, supplied...
