An Intelligent Framework To Assess Embodied Cognition From Physical Activities In Children, Ashwin Ramesh Babu
An Intelligent Framework To Assess Embodied Cognition From Physical Activities In Children, Ashwin Ramesh Babu
Computer Science and Engineering Dissertations
Cognition refers to "The mental actions or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses". It encompasses many aspects of intellectual functions and processes such as attention, working memory, response inhibition, motor functions, and more. Humans start to develop these cognitive skills right from their childhood and become fully developed through their adulthood. Impairments in these cognitive functions, specifically in Executive Functions (Higher-order cognitive functions), disrupt their everyday life leading to a troubled childhood and lifelong difficulties in family, employment, and community functioning leading to socio-economic repercussions. Identifying such impairments at the right age (early childhood) …

Deep Representation Learning On Giga-Pixel Whole Slide Images, Xinliang Zhu
Computer Science and Engineering Dissertations
I present my work towards solving the fundamental, challenging and valuable problem for automatically processing the giga-pixel level whole slide pathology images (WSIs): the representation of them. Specifically, I target on solving the combinations of three critical aspects of the problem: (1) it's not engineering feasible to directly fit them into existing convolutional neural networks because they are too large; (2) pre-trained parameters from other domains may not be effectively transferred to pathology images, and (3) both the image samples and annotations for those images are rarely available. To evaluate the effectiveness of the developed methods, I mainly focus on …
