Multiple Face Detection And Recognition System Design Applying Deep Learning In Web Browsers Using Javascript, Cristhian Gabriel Espinosa Sandoval
Multiple Face Detection And Recognition System Design Applying Deep Learning In Web Browsers Using Javascript, Cristhian Gabriel Espinosa Sandoval
Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
Deep learning has advanced progressively in the last years and now demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in various fields. In the era of big data, transformation of data into valuable knowledge has become one of the most important challenges in computing. Therefore, we will review multiple algorithms for face recognition that have been researched for a long time and are maturely developed, and analyze deep learning, presenting examples of current research.
To provide a useful and comprehensive perspective, in this paper we categorize research by deep learning architecture, including neural networks, convolutional neural networks, depthwise Separable Convolutions, densely connected convolutional networks, and …
Image-Driven Automated End-To-End Testing For Mobile Applications, Caleb Fritz
Image-Driven Automated End-To-End Testing For Mobile Applications, Caleb Fritz
Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
The increasing complexity and demand of software systems and the greater availability of test automation software is quickly rendering manual end-to-end (E2E) testing techniques for mobile platforms obsolete. This research seeks to explore the potential increase in automated test efficacy and maintainability through the use of computer vision algorithms when applied with Appium, a leading cross-platform mobile test automation framework. A testing framework written in a Node.js environment was created to support the development of E2E test scripts that examine and report the functional capabilities of a mobile test app. The test framework provides a suite of functions that connect …
Optimization Of Ultra-Low Power Application-Specific Asynchronous Deep Learning Integrated Circuit Design, Cole Sherrill
Optimization Of Ultra-Low Power Application-Specific Asynchronous Deep Learning Integrated Circuit Design, Cole Sherrill
Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
The Internet of Things (IoT) consists of all devices connected to the internet, including battery-powered devices like surveillance cameras and smart watches. IoT devices are often idle, making leakage power a crucial design constraint. Currently, there are only a few low-power application-specific processors for deep learning. Recently, the Trustable Logic Circuit Design (TruLogic) laboratory at the UofA designed an asynchronous Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) system. However, the original design suffered from delay-sensitivity issues undermining its reliable operation. The aim of this thesis research is to modify the existing CNN circuit to achieve increased reliability and to optimize the improved design …
Identifying Fake News Using Emotion Analysis, Brady Gilleran
Identifying Fake News Using Emotion Analysis, Brady Gilleran
Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
This paper presents research applying Emotional Analysis to “Fake News” and “Real News” articles to investigate whether or not there is a difference in the emotion used in these two types of news articles. The paper reports on a dataset for Fake and Real News that we created, and the natural language processing techniques employed to process the collected text. We use a lexicon that includes predefined words for eight emotions (anger, anticipation, disgust, fear, surprise, sadness, joy, trust) to measure the emotional impact in each of these eight dimensions. The results of the emotion analysis are used as features …
Different Approaches To Blurring Digital Images And Their Effect On Facial Detection, Erich-Matthew Pulfer
Different Approaches To Blurring Digital Images And Their Effect On Facial Detection, Erich-Matthew Pulfer
Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the usage of multiple image blurring techniques and determine their effectiveness in combatting facial detection algorithms. This type of analysis is anticipated to reveal potential flaws in the privacy expected from blurring images or, rather, portions of images. Three different blurring algorithms were designed and implemented: a box blurring method, a Gaussian blurring method, and a differential privacy-based pixilation method. Datasets of images were collected from multiple sources, including the AT&T Database of Faces. Each of these three methods were implemented via their own original method, but, because of how common they …
Applications Of Fog Computing In Video Streaming, Kyle Smith
Applications Of Fog Computing In Video Streaming, Kyle Smith
Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
The purpose of this paper is to show the viability of fog computing in the area of video streaming in vehicles. With the rise of autonomous vehicles, there needs to be a viable entertainment option for users. The cloud fails to address these options due to latency problems experienced during high internet traffic. To improve video streaming speeds, fog computing seems to be the best option. Fog computing brings the cloud closer to the user through the use of intermediary devices known as fog nodes. It does not attempt to replace the cloud but improve the cloud by allowing faster …
Prototyping A Capacitive Sensing Device For Gesture Recognition, Chenglong Lin
Prototyping A Capacitive Sensing Device For Gesture Recognition, Chenglong Lin
Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
Capacitive sensing is a technology that can detect proximity and touch. It can also be utilized to measure position and acceleration of gesture motions. This technology has many applications, such as replacing mechanical buttons in a gaming device interface, detecting respiration rate without direct contact with the skin, and providing gesture sensing capability for rehabilitation devices. In this thesis, an approach to prototype a capacitive gesture sensing device using the Eagle PCB design software is demonstrated. In addition, this paper tested and evaluated the resulting prototype device, validating the effectiveness of the approach.
