Generalized Differentiable Neural Architecture Search With Performance And Stability Improvements, Emily J. Herron
Generalized Differentiable Neural Architecture Search With Performance And Stability Improvements, Emily J. Herron
Doctoral Dissertations
This work introduces improvements to the stability and generalizability of Cyclic DARTS (CDARTS). CDARTS is a Differentiable Architecture Search (DARTS)-based approach to neural architecture search (NAS) that uses a cyclic feedback mechanism to train search and evaluation networks concurrently, thereby optimizing the search process by enforcing that the networks produce similar outputs. However, the dissimilarity between the loss functions used by the evaluation networks during the search and retraining phases results in a search-phase evaluation network, a sub-optimal proxy for the final evaluation network utilized during retraining. ICDARTS, a revised algorithm that reformulates the search phase loss functions to ensure …

Doctoral Dissertations
In the burgeoning field of quantum machine learning, the fusion of quantum computing and machine learning methodologies has sparked immense interest, particularly with the emergence of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. These devices hold the promise of achieving quantum advantage, but they grapple with limitations like constrained qubit counts, limited connectivity, operational noise, and a restricted set of operations. These challenges necessitate a strategic and deliberate approach to crafting effective quantum machine learning algorithms.
This dissertation revolves around an exploration of these challenges, presenting innovative strategies that tailor quantum algorithms and processes to seamlessly integrate with commercial quantum platforms. A …

Anomaly Detection On Complex Health Information Technology Systems, Haoran Niu
Doctoral Dissertations
While modern complex computer systems provide enormous benefits to our daily lives, the increasing complexity of these large-scale systems also makes them more susceptible to unexpected software malfunctions and malicious attacks. This is especially true for Health Information Technology (HIT), which has revolutionized healthcare delivery by making it more efficient, effective, and accessible. Nevertheless, the widespread adoption of HIT has introduced new challenges related to ensuring system reliability and security. As a result, the development of novel algorithms and frameworks to detect anomalies in such systems has become increasingly important for enhancing patient safety and improving the efficiency and effectiveness …

Computational Analysis Of Microbial Sequence Data Using Statistics And Machine Learning, Zhixiu Lu
Doctoral Dissertations
Since the discovery of the double helix of DNA in 1953, modern molecular biology has opened the door to a better understanding of how genes control chemical processes within cells, including protein synthesis. Although we are still far from claiming a complete understanding, recent advances in sequencing technologies, increased computational capacity, and more sophisticated computational methods have allowed the development of various new applications that provide further insight into DNA sequence data and how the information they encode impacts living organisms and their environment. Sequencing data can now be used to start identifying the relationships between microorganisms, where they live, …
