  • Improving robotic grasping performance using machine learning techniques

    Creator:
    Goins, Alex Keith
    Abstract:
    Robots are being utilized in ever more complex tasks and environments to help humans with difficult or dangerous tasks. However, robotic grasping is still in its infancy and is one of the limiting factors which prevent the deployment of robots in the home and other assisted living scenarios. Traditional methods...

  • Personalizing machine learning systems with explanatory debugging

    Creator:
    Kulesza, Todd
    Abstract:
    How can end users efficiently influence the predictions that machine learning systems make on their behalf? Traditional systems rely on users to provide examples of how they want the learning system to behave, but this is not always practical for the user, nor efficient for the learning system. This dissertation...

  • Integrating learning and search for structured prediction

    Creator:
    Doppa, Janardhan Rao
    Abstract:
    We are witnessing the rise of the data-driven science paradigm, in which massive amounts of data - much of it collected as a side-effect of ordinary human activity - can be analyzed to make sense of the data and to make useful predictions. To fully realize the promise of this...

  • Image Based Crypto

    Creator:
    Basa, Gungor
    Abstract:
    The ability to create reproducible cryptographically secure keys from temporal environments (e.g., images) has the potential to be a contributor to effective cryptographic mechanisms. Due to the noisy nature of these environments, achieving this goal in a user friendly fashion is a very challenging task, especially since there exists a...

  • Robust and Efficient Classification of Videos in the Wild

    Creator:
    Mahasseni, Behrooz
    Abstract:
    Recognizing human actions in videos is a long-standing problem in computer vision with a wide range of applications including video surveillance, content retrieval, and sports analysis. This thesis focuses on addressing efficiency and robustness of video classification in unconstrained real-world settings. The thesis work can be broadly divided into four...

  • The Pursuit of Hoppiness : Propelling Hop into the Genomic Era

    Creator:
    Hill, Steven T.
    Abstract:
    Hop (Humulus lupulus L. var lupulus) is a plant of great cultural significance, used as a medicinal herb for thousands of years, and for flavor and as a preservative in brewing beer. Studies of the medicinal effects of the unique compounds produced by hop have led to interest from the...

  • Simultaneous segmentation and classification of bird song using CNN

    Creator:
    Narasimhan, Revathy
    Abstract:
    In bioacoustics, automatic animal voice detection and recognition from audio recordings is an emerging topic for animal preservation. Our research focuses on bird bioacoustics, where the goal is to segment bird syllables from the recording and predict the bird species for the syllables. Traditional methods for this task addresses the...

  • Parsing with Recurrent Neural Networks

    Creator:
    Cross, James Henry, III
    Abstract:
    Machine learning models for natural language processing have traditionally relied on large numbers of discrete features, built up from atomic categories such as word forms and part-of-speech labels, which are considered completely distinct from each other. Recently however, the advent of dense feature representations coupled with deep learning techniques has...

  • Pixel- and Frame-level Video Labeling using Spatial and Temporal Convolutional Networks

    Creator:
    Lei, Peng
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses the problem of video labeling at both the frame and pixel levels using deep learning. For pixel-level video labeling, we have studied two problems: i) Spatiotemporal video segmentation and ii) Boundary detection and boundary flow estimation. For the problem of spatiotemporal video segmentation, we have developed recurrent...

  • A study of methods for fine-grained object classification of arthropod specimens

    Creator:
    Lin, Junyuan
    Abstract:
    Object categorization is one of the fundamental topics in computer vision research. Most current work in object categorization aims to discriminate among generic object classes with gross differences. However, many applications require much finer distinctions. This thesis focuses on the design, evaluation and analysis of learning algorithms for fine- grained...
