  • Innovating Feature Selection in Data Science

    Creator:
    Rubocki, Nikita
    Abstract:
    Data science is a rapidly growing industry permeating throughout every aspect of society. Everything collects data these days, and people use this data to find meaningful patterns leading to benefits ranging from more intuitive marketing to better cancer detection. However, increased data collection also leads to increased complexity, and data...

  • Efficient Public Key Cryptography Frameworks for Emerging IoT Applications

    Creator:
    Ozmen, Muslum Ozgur
    Abstract:
    Internet of Things (IoT) is an integral part of application domains such as smart-home, digital healthcare, smart grid systems and vehicular networks. Various standard public key cryptography techniques (e.g., key exchange, public key encryption, digital signature) are available to provide fundamental security services for IoTs. However, despite their pervasiveness and...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Using provenance to aid document re-finding

    Creator:
    Lonsdale, Heather
    Abstract:
    In the field of Human-Computer Interaction, provenance refers to the complete history and genealogy of a document. Provenance can be useful in identifying related resources, such as different versions of the same document or resources used in the creation of a new document. Though methods of provenance collection and applications...

  • The choice calculus : a formal language of variation

    Creator:
    Walkingshaw, Eric
    Abstract:
    In this thesis I present the choice calculus, a formal language for representing variation in software and other structured artifacts. The choice calculus is intended to support variation research in a way similar to the lambda calculus in programming language research. Specifically, it provides a simple formal basis for presenting,...

  • How Should A Deaf Car Drive?

    Creator:
    Grant, Denue, Jr.
    Abstract:
    This thesis seeks to determine whether a self-driving car's behavior should depend on the hearing status of its passengers: namely, hard-of-hearing (including deaf) or hearing. It is believed that auditory deprivation provokes adaptations in visual attention. These adaptations may lead to atypical movement patterns that can translate to different driving...

  • 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....

  • Engineering Student Perspectives of a New Required Programming Course

    Creator:
    Garcia Ramirez, Jessica
    Abstract:
    We present student perceptions of a new first-year engineering programming class that was designed by informed research practices. While the College of Engineering at Oregon State University saw a lot of major switching in the first year, there were not many students switching into computer science (CS). This could have...
