  • Assessing mental workload and situation awareness in the evaluation of real-time, critical user interfaces

    Creator:
    Strawn, Jordan J.
    Abstract:
    While there are many ways to evaluate a user interface design, the user's mental workload and situation awareness (SA) are particularly important considerations in the supervisory control of safety-critical systems. Typically, operators of these systems must monitor high-volume, time-sensitive status information. Interface design for this domain can be challenging and...

  • Perceptual thresholds for foot slipping in animated characters

    Creator:
    Strawn, Jordan J.
    Abstract:
    The computer game industry continues to progress toward realistic-looking character motion. However, even in state-of-the-art games, the use of motion capture data in character animation may result in errors such as “foot slipping,” where the feet do not match up with the floor properly during translation. Various algorithms have been...

  • High-Dimensional Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback

    Creator:
    Curran, William
    Abstract:
    State-of-the-art personal robots need to perform complex manipulation tasks to be viable in complex scenarios. However, many of these robots, like the PR2, use manipulators with high degrees of freedom. High degrees of freedom are desirable from a functionality standpoint, but make the learning task more difficult by adding a...

  • Machine Learning Methods for the Discovery and Analysis of MicroRNAs

    Creator:
    Bell, Jimmy D.
    Abstract:
    MicroRNAs are a highly conserved class of small endogenous RNA, about ~22nt in length, involved in post-transcriptional gene silencing and have prominent roles in disease and development. Though the process of microRNA discovery was once an arduous task, the advent of high throughput sequencing technology has resulted in novel microRNAs...

  • Porting and optimizing a routing library for Dataparallel C on the nCUBE 2 system

    Creator:
    Sivaramapuram, Krishna
    Abstract:
    Dataparallel C has been designed for various kinds of architectures and was devel­oped jointly at University of New Hampshire and Oregon State University. This project dealt with porting the libraries to the nCUBE 2 system and helping a user compile his programs on nCUBE 2 directly from a Sun workstation...

  • Applications of Conditional Topic Models to Species Distribution Prediction

    Creator:
    Wilkins, Paul Christopher
    Abstract:
    The topic of species distribution modelling has been on of increasing interest in recent years. As climate change is becoming of even more interest to researchers, more tools are needed to better analyze and predict various climate change scenarios. One particular area of interest is that of species distribution modeling....

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Efficient Algorithms for Robust Spatiotemporal Data Analysis

    Creator:
    Moore, Travis W.
    Abstract:
    Many large-scale data analysis applications involve data that can vary over both time and space. Often the primary goal of analyzing spatiotemporal data is identifying trends, movements, and sudden changes with respect to time, location, or both. This can include a variety of applications in economics (housing prices, unemployment, job...
