Looping Predictive Method To Improve Accuracy Of A Machine Learning Model, Subramanyam Reddy Pogili
Looping Predictive Method To Improve Accuracy Of A Machine Learning Model, Subramanyam Reddy Pogili
Theses
The topic of this project is an analysis of drug-related tweets. The goal is to build a Machine Learning Model that can distinguish between tweets that indicate drug abuse and other tweets that also contain the name of a drug but do not describe abuse. Drugs can be illegal, such as heroin, or legal drugs with a potential of abuse, such as painkillers. However, building a good Machine Learning Model requires a large amount of training data. For each training tweet, a human expert has determined whether it indicates drug abuse or not. This is difficult work for humans. …
Visual Odometry Using Convolutional Neural Networks, Alec Graves, Steffen Lim, Thomas Fagan, Kevin Mcfall Phd.
Visual Odometry Using Convolutional Neural Networks, Alec Graves, Steffen Lim, Thomas Fagan, Kevin Mcfall Phd.
The Kennesaw Journal of Undergraduate Research
Visual odometry is the process of tracking an agent's motion over time using a visual sensor. The visual odometry problem has only been recently solved using traditional, non-machine learning techniques. Despite the success of neural networks at many related problems such as object recognition, feature detection, and optical flow, visual odometry still has not been solved with a deep learning technique. This paper attempts to implement several Convolutional Neural Networks to solve the visual odometry problem and compare slight variations in data preprocessing. The work presented is a step toward reaching a legitimate neural network solution.
Understanding Huntington's Disease Using Machine Learning Approaches, Sonali Lokhande
Understanding Huntington's Disease Using Machine Learning Approaches, Sonali Lokhande
KGI Theses and Dissertations
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder with a complex pathophysiology. Despite extensive studies to study the disease, the sequence of events through which mutant Huntingtin (mHtt) protein executes its action still remains elusive. The phenotype of HD is an outcome of numerous processes initiated by the mHtt protein along with other proteins that act as either suppressors or enhancers of the effects of mHtt protein and PolyQ aggregates. Utilizing an integrative systems biology approach, I construct and analyze a Huntington’s disease integrome using human orthologs of protein interactors of wild type and mHtt protein. Analysis of this integrome …

Fifa: Exploring A Focally Induced Fault Attack Strategy In Near-Threshold Computing, Prabal Basu, Chidhambaranathan Rajamanikkam, Aatreyi Bal, Pramesh Pandey, Trevor Carter, Koushik Chakraborty, Sanghamitra Roy
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications
In this letter, we explore the emerging security threats of near-threshold computing (NTC). Researchers have shown that the delay sensitivity of a circuit to supply voltage variation tremendously increases, as the circuit's operating conditions shift from traditional super-threshold values to NTC values. As a result, NTC systems become extremely vulnerable to timing fault attacks, jeopardizing trustworthy computing. Inspired by the operation of a polymorphic virus, we propose a novel threat model for NTC, referred to as a focally induced fault attack (FIFA). FIFA employs a machine learning framework to ascertain the circuit vulnerabilities and generates targeted software modules to cause …
Instagram Photos Reveal Predictive Markers Of Depression, Andrew G. Reece, Christopher M. Danforth
Instagram Photos Reveal Predictive Markers Of Depression, Andrew G. Reece, Christopher M. Danforth
College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences Faculty Publications
Using Instagram data from 166 individuals, we applied machine learning tools to successfully identify markers of depression. Statistical features were computationally extracted from 43,950 participant Instagram photos, using color analysis, metadata components, and algorithmic face detection. Resulting models outperformed general practitioners’ average unassisted diagnostic success rate for depression. These results held even when the analysis was restricted to posts made before depressed individuals were first diagnosed. Human ratings of photo attributes (happy, sad, etc.) were weaker predictors of depression, and were uncorrelated with computationally-generated features. These results suggest new avenues for early screening and detection of mental illness.
Uncovering New Links Through Interaction Duration, Laxmi Amulya Gundala
Uncovering New Links Through Interaction Duration, Laxmi Amulya Gundala
Boise State University Theses and Dissertations
Link Prediction is the problem of inferring new relationships among nodes in a network that can occur in the near future. Classical approaches mainly consider neighborhood structure similarity when linking nodes. However, we may also want to take into account whether the two nodes we are going to link will benefit from that by having an active interaction over time. For instance, it is better to link two nodes � and � if we know that these two nodes will interact in the social network in the future, rather than suggesting �, who may never interact with �. Thus, the …
Machine Learning To Discover And Optimize Materials, Conrad Waldhar Rosenbrock
Machine Learning To Discover And Optimize Materials, Conrad Waldhar Rosenbrock
Theses and Dissertations
For centuries, scientists have dreamed of creating materials by design. Rather than discovery by accident, bespoke materials could be tailored to fulfill specific technological needs. Quantum theory and computational methods are essentially equal to the task, and computational power is the new bottleneck. Machine learning has the potential to solve that problem by approximating material behavior at multiple length scales. A full end-to-end solution must allow us to approximate the quantum mechanics, microstructure and engineering tasks well enough to be predictive in the real world. In this dissertation, I present algorithms and methodology to address some of these problems at …
Ethics And Bias In Machine Learning: A Technical Study Of What Makes Us “Good”, Ashley Nicole Shadowen
Ethics And Bias In Machine Learning: A Technical Study Of What Makes Us “Good”, Ashley Nicole Shadowen
Student Theses
The topic of machine ethics is growing in recognition and energy, but bias in machine learning algorithms outpaces it to date. Bias is a complicated term with good and bad connotations in the field of algorithmic prediction making. Especially in circumstances with legal and ethical consequences, we must study the results of these machines to ensure fairness. This paper attempts to address ethics at the algorithmic level of autonomous machines. There is no one solution to solving machine bias, it depends on the context of the given system and the most reasonable way to avoid biased decisions while maintaining the …
Video Frame Interpolation Via Adaptive Separable Convolution, Simon Niklaus, Long Mai, Feng Liu
Video Frame Interpolation Via Adaptive Separable Convolution, Simon Niklaus, Long Mai, Feng Liu
Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations
Standard video frame interpolation methods first estimate optical flow between input frames and then synthesize an intermediate frame guided by motion. Recent approaches merge these two steps into a single convolution process by convolving input frames with spatially adaptive kernels that account for motion and re-sampling simultaneously. These methods require large kernels to handle large motion, which limits the number of pixels whose kernels can be estimated at once due to the large memory demand. To address this problem, this paper formulates frame interpolation as local separable convolution over input frames using pairs of 1D kernels. Compared to regular 2D …

Artificial Intelligence In Health Care: Applications And Legal Implications, W. Nicholson Price Ii
Artificial Intelligence In Health Care: Applications And Legal Implications, W. Nicholson Price Ii
Articles
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly moving to change the healthcare system. Driven by the juxtaposition of big data and powerful machine learning techniques—terms I will explain momentarily—innovators have begun to develop tools to improve the process of clinical care, to advance medical research, and to improve efficiency. These tools rely on algorithms, programs created from healthcare data that can make predictions or recommendations. However, the algorithms themselves are often too complex for their reasoning to be understood or even stated explicitly. Such algorithms may be best described as “black-box.” This article briefly describes the concept of AI in medicine, including …

Deep-Learned Generative Representations Of 3d Shape Families, Haibin Huang
Deep-Learned Generative Representations Of 3d Shape Families, Haibin Huang
Doctoral Dissertations
Digital representations of 3D shapes are becoming increasingly useful in several emerging applications, such as 3D printing, virtual reality and augmented reality. However, traditional modeling softwares require users to have extensive modeling experience, artistic skills and training to handle their complex interfaces and perform the necessary low-level geometric manipulation commands. Thus, there is an emerging need for computer algorithms that help novice and casual users to quickly and easily generate 3D content. In this work, I will present deep learning algorithms that are capable of automatically inferring parametric representations of shape families, which can be used to generate new 3D …
Deep Energy-Based Models For Structured Prediction, David Belanger
Deep Energy-Based Models For Structured Prediction, David Belanger
Doctoral Dissertations
We introduce structured prediction energy networks (SPENs), a flexible frame- work for structured prediction. A deep architecture is used to define an energy func- tion over candidate outputs and predictions are produced by gradient-based energy minimization. This deep energy captures dependencies between labels that would lead to intractable graphical models, and allows us to automatically discover discrim- inative features of the structured output. Furthermore, practitioners can explore a wide variety of energy function architectures without having to hand-design predic- tion and learning methods for each model. This is because all of our prediction and learning methods interact with the energy …
An Integrated Framework For Staffing And Shift Scheduling In Hospitals, Wael Rashwan
An Integrated Framework For Staffing And Shift Scheduling In Hospitals, Wael Rashwan
Doctoral
Over the years, one of the main concerns confronting hospital management is optimising the staffing and scheduling decisions. Consequences of inappropriate staffing can adversely impact on hospital performance, patient experience and staff satisfaction alike. A comprehensive review of literature (more than 1300 journal articles) is presented in a new taxonomy of three dimensions; problem contextualisation, solution approach, evaluation perspective and uncertainty. Utilising Operations Research methods, solutions can provide a positive contribution in underpinning staffing and scheduling decisions. However, there are still opportunities to integrate decision levels; incorporate practitioners view in solution architectures; consider staff behaviour impact, and offer comprehensive applied …

A Decision Tree Approach For The Musical Genres Classification, Glaucia M. Bressan, Beatriz C. F. De Azevedo, Elisangela Ap. S. Lizzi
Applied Mathematics & Information Sciences
The interest in the music classification has increased due to its wide applicability and discoveries obtained from researches. However, efficient methods for systemic organization of digital libraries are required, since users need to classify the available music files. When an automatic classification is desired, the extraction of input attributes and an efficient system, able to process them, are needed. In this context, the use of decision trees as a tool to predict musical genres classes allows the monitoring of the ramification, since nodes and branches of the tree can be accessed in this process. Decision tree is a technique very …
An Integrated Framework For Modeling And Predicting Spatiotemporal Phenomena In Urban Environments, Tuc Viet Le
An Integrated Framework For Modeling And Predicting Spatiotemporal Phenomena In Urban Environments, Tuc Viet Le
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
This thesis proposes a general solution framework that integrates methods in machine learning in creative ways to solve a diverse set of problems arising in urban environments. It particularly focuses on modeling spatiotemporal data for the purpose of predicting urban phenomena. Concretely, the framework is applied to solve three specific real-world problems: human mobility prediction, trac speed prediction and incident prediction. For human mobility prediction, I use visitor trajectories collected a large theme park in Singapore as a simplified microcosm of an urban area. A trajectory is an ordered sequence of attraction visits and corresponding timestamps produced by a visitor. …
Scalable Online Kernel Learning, Jing Lu
Scalable Online Kernel Learning, Jing Lu
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
One critical deficiency of traditional online kernel learning methods is their increasing and unbounded number of support vectors (SV’s), making them inefficient and non-scalable for large-scale applications. Recent studies on budget online learning have attempted to overcome this shortcoming by bounding the number of SV’s. Despite being extensively studied, budget algorithms usually suffer from several drawbacks.
First of all, although existing algorithms attempt to bound the number of SV’s at each iteration, most of them fail to bound the number of SV’s for the final averaged classifier, which is commonly used for online-to-batch conversion. To solve this problem, we propose …

Fast On-Line Kernel Density Estimation For Active Object Localization, Anthony D. Rhodes, Max H. Quinn, Melanie Mitchell
Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations
A major goal of computer vision is to enable computers to interpret visual situations—abstract concepts (e.g., “a person walking a dog,” “a crowd waiting for a bus,” “a picnic”) whose image instantiations are linked more by their common spatial and semantic structure than by low-level visual similarity. In this paper, we propose a novel method for prior learning and active object localization for this kind of knowledge-driven search in static images. In our system, prior situation knowledge is captured by a set of flexible, kernel-based density estimations— a situation model—that represent the expected spatial structure of the given situation. These …
Anomaly Detection For A Water Treatment System Using Unsupervised Machine Learning, Jun Inoue, Yoriyuki Yamagata, Yuqi Chen, Christopher M. Poskitt, Jun Sun
Anomaly Detection For A Water Treatment System Using Unsupervised Machine Learning, Jun Inoue, Yoriyuki Yamagata, Yuqi Chen, Christopher M. Poskitt, Jun Sun
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this paper, we propose and evaluate the application of unsupervised machine learning to anomaly detection for a Cyber-Physical System (CPS). We compare two methods: Deep Neural Networks (DNN) adapted to time series data generated by a CPS, and one-class Support Vector Machines (SVM). These methods are evaluated against data from the Secure Water Treatment (SWaT) testbed, a scaled-down but fully operational raw water purification plant. For both methods, we first train detectors using a log generated by SWaT operating under normal conditions. Then, we evaluate the performance of both methods using a log generated by SWaT operating under 36 …
Autoplug: An Automated Metadata Service For Smart Outlets, Lurdh Pradeep Reddy Ambati
Autoplug: An Automated Metadata Service For Smart Outlets, Lurdh Pradeep Reddy Ambati
Masters Theses
Low-cost network-connected smart outlets are now available for monitoring, controlling, and scheduling the energy usage of electrical devices. As a result, such smart outlets are being integrated into automated home management systems, which remotely control them by analyzing and interpreting their data. However, to effectively interpret data and control devices, the system must know the type of device that is plugged into each smart outlet. Existing systems require users to manually input and maintain the outlet metadata that associates a device type with a smart outlet. Such manual operation is time-consuming and error-prone: users must initially inventory all outlet-to-device mappings, …
Neural Network Prediction Of Barbell Kinematics From Joint Kinetics In Weightlifting, Kristof Kipp
Neural Network Prediction Of Barbell Kinematics From Joint Kinetics In Weightlifting, Kristof Kipp
ISBS Proceedings Archive
The purpose of this study was to develop and train neural networks (NN) to predict barbell motion and velocity from hip, knee, and ankle joint torques during a weightlifting exercise. Seven weightlifters performed two repetitions of the clean exercise at 85% of maximum while reaction forces and 3-D motion data of the lifter and barbell were acquired. An inverse dynamics procedure was then used to calculate torques at the hip, knee, and ankle joints. The joint torque time-series data were used as inputs to two seperate NN to predict 1) the horizontal and vertical barbell trajectories and 2) the vertical …

Brain imaging genetics intends to uncover associations between genetic markers and neuroimaging quantitative traits. Sparse canonical correlation analysis (SCCA) can discover bi-multivariate associations and select relevant features, and is becoming popular in imaging genetic studies. The L1-norm function is not only convex, but also singular at the origin, which is a necessary condition for sparsity. Thus most SCCA methods impose ℓ1-norm onto the individual feature or the structure level of features to pursuit corresponding sparsity. However, the ℓ1-norm penalty over-penalizes large coefficients and may incurs estimation bias. A number of non-convex penalties are proposed to reduce …
Evolution Of Bias In Human And Machine Learning Algorithm Interaction, Wenlong Sun, Olfa Nasraoui, Patrick Shafto
Evolution Of Bias In Human And Machine Learning Algorithm Interaction, Wenlong Sun, Olfa Nasraoui, Patrick Shafto
Commonwealth Computational Summit
Human algorithm interaction:
- people are now affected by the output of all types of machine learning algorithms.
- social media, blogs, social networks, and other services and applications.
Motivation:
- ML algorithm relied on reliable labels from experts to build prediction.
- However, ML algorithm started to receive data from the more general population.
- The interaction leads to biased result which is caused by ingesting unchecked information from general population, such as biased samples and biased labels.
