Messiness: Automating Iot Data Streaming Spatial Analysis, Christopher White, Atilio Barreda Ii

Publications and Research

The spaces we live in go through many transformations over the course of a year, a month, or a day; My room has seen tremendous clutter and pristine order within the span of a few hours. My goal is to discover patterns within my space and formulate an understanding of the changes that occur. This insight will provide actionable direction for maintaining a cleaner environment, as well as provide some information about the optimal times for productivity and energy preservation.

Using a Raspberry Pi, I will set up automated image capture in a room in my home. These images will …

Machine Learning-Based Recognition On Crowdsourced Food Images, Aditya Kulkarni

Honors Scholar Theses

With nearly a third of the world’s population suffering from food-induced chronic diseases such as obesity, the role of food in community health is required now more than ever. While current research underscores food proximity and density, there is a dearth in regard to its nutrition and quality. However, recent research in geospatial data collection and analysis as well as intelligent deep learning will help us study this further.

Employing the efficiency and interconnection of computer vision and geospatial technology, we want to study whether healthy food in the community is attainable. Specifically, with the help of deep learning in …

The Future Of Artificial Intelligence, Alex Guerra

Emerging Writers

Whether we like it or not Artificial Intelligence (AI) is coming, and we are not ready for it. AI has unimaginable potential and will revolutionize the world over the next few decades, but with this great potential we are faced with choices that could prove detrimental to humanity. This article examines the challenges AI presents and explores possible solutions to make AI align with human interests.

Automated Test Generation For Validating Systemc Designs, Bin Lin

Dissertations and Theses

Modern system design involves integration of all components of a system on a single chip, namely System-on-a-Chip (SoC). The ever-increasing complexity of SoCs and rapidly decreasing time-to-market have pushed the design abstraction to the electronic system level (ESL), in order to increase design productivity. SystemC is a widely used ESL modeling language that plays a central role in modern SoCs design process. ESL SystemC designs usually serve as executable specifications for the subsequent SoCs design flow. Therefore, undetected bugs in ESL SystemC designs may propagate to low-level implementations or even final silicon products. In addition, modern SoCs design often involves …

Computational Simulation And Analysis Of Neuroplasticity, Madison E. Yancey

Browse all Theses and Dissertations

Homeostatic synaptic plasticity is the process by which neurons alter their activity in response to changes in network activity. Neuroscientists attempting to understand homeostatic synaptic plasticity have developed three different mathematical methods to analyze collections of event recordings from neurons acting as a proxy for neuronal activity. These collections of events are from control data and treatment data, referring to the treatment of neuron cultures with pharmacological agents that augment or inhibit network activity. If the distribution of control events can be functionally mapped to the distribution of treatment events, a better understanding of the biological processes underlying homeostatic synaptic …

The Youplanner, Taylor Burgess

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

Staying organized can be difficult. A four tier web application was created to help in the endeavor. Utilizing software engineering practices, an online notepad was created where users can add, update, and delete notes. The application was a full stack application. For the backend, MySQL was the language and phpMyAdmin was the server. For the front end, PHP and Bootstrap 5.1 was used.
