  • Just a tool after all? No evidence for tool-use effects on the body representation across virtual and real environments

    Creator:
    Bell, Joshua D.
    Abstract:
    While human tool-use proficiency helped define our history, the cognitive and perceptual mechanics of how humans use tools are not fully understood. This question is of great value to the design of hand-held tools and prosthetics. A prominent theory, tool embodiment, suggests that tool use is facilitated by a flexible...

  • Tracr - Visual Interface for Generating Explanations

    Creator:
    Barnes, Jack
    Abstract:
    Tracr is a modern browser-based user interface, designed to be used with languages that can generate customized explanations from execution traces. While Tracr is primarily designed for use with the Xtra language, Tracr defines a generalized interface that would allow it to be used with other languages as well. Explanations...

  • Generating and manipulating painterly renderings of images

    Creator:
    Todd, Grace
    Abstract:
    We present a tool that converts any image into a painterly rendered one, or one that looks as though it was hand-painted. To do this, we implemented the Sobel filter to calculate the edge field that is used to create streamlines, which serve as the foundation for brush strokes. We...

  • Deep learning for robotic exploration

    Creator:
    Caley, Jeffrey A.
    Abstract:
    Emerging applications for robotic data collection include ocean monitoring, emergency response and urban search and rescue. At the core of these applications is a robot's ability to make informed decisions on incomplete data. This dissertation addresses this problem by developing novel techniques for modeling and estimating structured environments using deep...

  • Supporting the learning process of open source novices : an evaluation of code and project history visualization tools

    Creator:
    Park, Yunrim
    Abstract:
    Active participation and collaboration of community members are crucial to the continuation and expansion of open source software projects. Researchers have recognized the value of community in open source development and studied various aspects of it including structure of communities, motivations for participation, and collaboration among members. However, the majority...

  • Topological Learning for Robotic Exploration and Navigation in Uncertain Environments

    Creator:
    Saroya, Manish R.
    Abstract:
    The effectiveness of robot autonomy is governed by the ability to make decisions based on online sensor measurements and a prior belief of the environment. Uncertainty in the environment introduces challenges to robotic decision making. This thesis address two key robot decision making problems: exploration and navigation. The robotic exploration...

  • A computational-based methodology for the rapid determination of initial AP location for WLAN deployment

    Creator:
    Altamirano, Esteban
    Abstract:
    The determination of the optimal location of transceivers is a critical design factor when deploying a wireless local area network (WLAN). The performance of the WLAN will improve in a variety of aspects when the transceivers' locations are adequately determined, including the overall cell coverage to the battery life of...

  • Machine Learning for Architectural Design Space Exploration and Resource Control

    Creator:
    Penney, Drew D.
    Abstract:
    Machine learning has enabled significant advancements in diverse fields, yet, with a few exceptions, has had limited impact on computer architecture. Recent work, however, has begun to explore broader application to design, optimization, and simulation. Notably, machine-learning-based strategies often surpass prior state-of-the-art analytical, heuristic, and human-expert approaches. This thesis first...

  • Geothermal exploration by telluric currents in the Klamath Falls area, Oregon

    Creator:
    Tang, Rex Wai-yuen
    Abstract:
    Geothermal resources are characterized by a very low electrical resistivity of the reservoir formations. The application of electrical methods in the reconnaissance type exploration for such resources is discussed. It is concluded that the magneto-telluric method is very well suited for this purpose. In 1971 and 1972 a reconnaissance type...
