  • Effects of harvest date on sweet corn maturity, sugar content and yield

    Creator:
    Wong, Yueh-Mei
    Abstract:
    Studies were conducted in 1976 and 1977 on the effects of harvest dates on maturity, yields and sugar content of four cultivars of sweet corn. The cultivars were 'Golden Cross Bantam', 'Jubilee', 'Rapidpak' and 'Tendertreat'. Moisture content of kernels ranged from 80 to 67 per cent for the six harvest...

  • Classification of motion capture sequences

    Creator:
    Maniar, Dharin Haresh
    Abstract:
    Motion capture data is a digital representation of the complex temporal structure of human motion. Motion capture is widely used for data-driven animation in sports,medicine and entertainment, because of its ability to capture complex and realistic motions. Due to its efficiency and cost, methods for reusing collections of motion capture...

  • Weakly Supervised Learning for Activity Recognition from Time Series Data

    Creator:
    Guan, Xinze
    Abstract:
    The thesis focuses on activity recognition from sensor data, which has spurred a great deal of interest due to its impact on health care and security. Previous work on activity recognition from multivariate time series data has mainly applied supervised learning techniques which require a high degree of annotation effort...

  • Defining leisure and recreation in Malaysia

    Creator:
    Wong, Jenny Lai Ping
    Abstract:
    The fundamental aim of this study was to determine how Malaysians define both leisure and recreation. Two ethnic groups, Chinese and Malays, and rural and urban variants of these groups were included in the sample. The other objective was to determine if there were differences in the definitions due to...

  • Bayesian optimization with empirical constraints

    Creator:
    Azimi, Javad
    Abstract:
    Bayesian Optimization (BO) methods are often used to optimize an unknown function f(•) that is costly to evaluate. They typically work in an iterative manner. In each iteration, given a set of observation points, BO algorithms select k ≥ 1 points to be evaluated. The results of those points are...

  • Effects of ciliary neutrophic factor (CNTF) on protein turnover in cultured L8 rat muscle cells

    Creator:
    Wang, Mei-Chuan
    Abstract:
    Skeletal muscle proteins are the largest amino acid pool in animal body and are continuously degraded and resynthesized. Dozens of factors have been shown to influence the balance between synthesis and degradation and thereby regulate muscle growth and function. It is now know that one of the major regulatory bases...

  • Voxel based indirect illumination using spherical harmonics

    Creator:
    Rauwendaal, Randall
    Abstract:
    Realistic (ideally photorealistic) real-time rendering has remained an elusive goal in computer graphics. While photorealistic rendering has certainly been achieved at the expense of tremendous computational resources and corresponding rendering times; real-time rendering typically must accept a great number of compromises to achieve adequate performance, such as aliasing artifacts, the...

  • Test Case Reduction, Prioritization, and Selection for Symbolic Execution

    Creator:
    Zhang, Chaoqiang
    Abstract:
    Software testing is of critical importance for the success of software projects. Current inefficient testing methods often still take up half or more of a software project's budget. Automatic test data generation is the most promising way to lower the software testing cost. Manually creating testing data is expensive and...

  • Multi-instance multi-label learning : algorithms and applications to bird bioacoustics

    Creator:
    Briggs, Forrest
    Abstract:
    We consider the problem of supervised classification of bird species from audio recordings in a real-world acoustic monitoring scenario (i.e. audio data is collected in the field with an omnidirectional microphone, without human supervision). Obtaining better data about bird activity can assist conservation efforts, and improve our understanding of their...

  • A probabilistic framework and algorithms for modeling and analyzing multi-instance data

    Creator:
    Behmardi, Behrouz
    Abstract:
    Multi-instance data, in which each object (e.g., a document) is a collection of instances (e.g., word), are widespread in machine learning, signal processing, computer vision, bioinformatic, music, and social sciences. Existing probabilistic models, e.g., latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), probabilistic latent semantic indexing (pLSI), and discrete component analysis (DCA), have been...
