Initial Designs for Improving Conversations for People Using Speech Synthesizers

Creator:: Nguyen, Duy M.
Abstract:: This thesis aims to determine the impact that Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices have on social interactions, and then improves the AAC user experience through a user focus design process. AAC devices enable people who cannot speak to communicate with others. Unfortunately, they are tedious to use and make...

Receiver synchronization for UWB TDOA localization

Creator:: Baek, Seungjin
Abstract:: Pulsed ultra-wideband (UWB) radio uses extremely short pulses to transmit information. Such pulses provide very fine timing information, which has led to technological advances in high-precision localization. This thesis investigates UWB localization strategies with a focus on receiver synchronization algorithms for time-difference-of-arrival localization to achieve centimeter accuracies in a 3-dimensional...

Multiagent Learning via Dynamic Skill Selection

Creator:: Sachdeva, Enna
Abstract:: Multiagent coordination has many real-world applications such as self-driving cars, inventory management, search and rescue, package delivery, traﬃc management, warehouse management, and transportation. These tasks are generally character-ized by a global team objective that is often temporally sparse - realized only upon completing an episode. The sparsity of the shared...

Evaluating the Dietary Toxicity of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and Development of a High Throughput Non-Invasive Zebrafish Cortisol Assay

Creator:: Leong, Connor A.
Abstract:: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are contaminants of concern because they do not readily degrade in the environment. Some in vivo studies report that PFAS alter neurological development and are carcinogenic. Perfluorohexanesulfonamide (FHxSA) and 6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonate (6:2 FTS) are two PFASs, which are often detected in drinking water sources....

Radiation effects in III-V heterojunction bipolar transistors

Creator:: Vuppala, Soujanya
Abstract:: Electron and neutron irradiation effects in InGaP/GaAs single heterojunction bipolar transistors are investigated in this thesis. Devices with different emitter sizes and grown by two different growth techniques were examined. Based on the physics of heterojunction bipolar transistors and concepts of radiation damage mechanisms, the irradiation effects were analyzed. The...

How do Programmers Forage through Variants? Modeling Hierarchical Foraging and Changelogs

Creator:: Pandya, Bhargav Chandravadan
Abstract:: Complex information environments are often organized as hierarchies. However, computational models of Information Foraging Theory (IFT) have almost entirely ignored this fact. Models and tools for predicting programmer navigations have ignored people’s foraging behavior across hierarchies —called hierarchical foraging. Without modeling hierarchical foraging, our ability to build tools to support...

Mining Temporal Patterns for Prediction: A Mixed-Integer Programming Approach

Creator:: Mansourifard, Farzaneh
Abstract:: In the past two decades, the advancement in data collection and storage have led to the accumulation of complex datasets. Consequently, various industries have sought data-driven solutions to predict and detect anomalies. Temporal patterns have emerged as potential features in prediction models that could improve the performance of the identification...

Deep Segmentation in Plant Phenomics

Creator:: Kaur, Damanpreet
Abstract:: The abilities of plant biologists to characterize the genetic basis of physiological traits are limited by their abilities to obtain quantitative data representing precise details of trait variation and mainly to collect this data on a high-throughput scale at low cost. Deep learning-based methods have demonstrated unprecedented potential to automate...

Collaborative Filtering-Based In-Network Content Placement and Caching for 5G Networks

Creator:: Alorayj, Haya
Abstract:: As the number of wireless devices, the demand for high data rates, and the need for always-on connectivity are growing and becoming more stringent with the evolvement and emergence of 5G systems, network engineers and researchers are being faced with new unique challenges that need to be addressed. Among many...

Robots Against Infectious Diseases : A Technologically Grounded, Human-Centered Exploration

Creator:: Kraft, Kory
Abstract:: Robots have the potential to protect health care workers, provide patient care, and ultimately save lives in infectious disease outbreaks. Nevertheless, infectious disease outbreak scenarios present unique technological and social challenges for robotics. This work explores what robots can and should do in the fight against infectious diseases. We present...
