  • An Object-Oriented Compiler Construction Toolkit

    Creator:
    Justice, Timothy P.
    Abstract:
    Although standard tools have been used for lexical and syntactic analysis since the late 1970's, no standard tools exist for the remaining parts of a compiler. Part of the reason for this de ciency is due to the di culty of producing elegant tools capable of handling the large amount...

  • Multi-Reward Learning and Sparse Rewards

    Creator:
    Christopher, Reid M.
    Abstract:
    Reinforcement learning has made impressive strides in solving problems in challenging domains, but problems are increasingly being described with sparse rewards. Sparse rewards directly reduce the rate at which useful feedback is provided to the learner and make it difficult to distinguish between what specific actions led to the reception...

  • Integrating multimedia mechanism into object-oriented framework Objex

    Creator:
    Liu, Rui
    Abstract:
    The problem addressed in this paper is that of the extension of multimedia mechanism into Objex, an object oriented framework. Several multimedia productions have been developed recently, such as QuickTime™, HyperCard, MacSpeaker, Multi-Ad Creator 3.0, etc. [Heid 91]. The common problems with them, however, are that they are all implemented...

  • Use-case-based generation of forms from a class diagram

    Creator:
    Choodamani, Mohan
    Abstract:
    Forms are an easy-to-use interface to access a database, including a remote database on the Internet. An entity-relationship (ER} diagram, which is a picto­rial representation of a database schema, is widely used in designing a database. A class diagram, which shows set of classes, relationships among them, and associa­tions, are...

  • Investigating software complexity : knot count thresholds

    Creator:
    Hannan, Paula A.
    Abstract:
    This study concentrates on threshold values for the two most popular control flow metrics: McCabe's cyclomatic complexity and the knot count. We describe the results of an experimental study to empirically determine a threshold value for knot count for student programmers. The experiment was designed to measure the interaction between...

  • Enhancing Facial Recognition: A Comparative Analysis of Image Preprocessing Techniques in PCA, KL Expansion and SVD

    Creator:
    Tuffour, Prince A.
    Abstract:
    Facial recognition has become increasingly important in recent years, due to the wide range of applications it has in fields such as security, surveillance, and human-computer interaction. Three popular methods for facial recognition are the Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Karhunen-Loeve Expansions, which is fundamentally a continuous form of PCA but...

    Creator:
    Gilbert, Kirby Wayne
    Abstract:
    The ski areas of Oregon and Washington are similar in many [respects], especially in that they are predominately local day areas and are located on United States Forest Service lands. The demand for more ski facilities is apparent yet the number of new areas opening has decreased over the years....
