Finding A Viable Neural Network Architecture For Use With Upper Limb Prosthetics, Maxwell Lavin
Master of Science in Computer Science Theses
This paper attempts to answer the question of if it’s possible to produce a simple, quick, and accurate neural network for the use in upper-limb prosthetics. Through the implementation of convolutional and artificial neural networks and feature extraction on electromyographic data different possible architectures are examined with regards to processing time, complexity, and accuracy. It is found that the most accurate architecture is a multi-entry categorical cross entropy convolutional neural network with 100% accuracy. The issue is that it is also the slowest method requiring 9 minutes to run. The next best method found was a single-entry binary cross entropy …

A Constrained Box Algorithm For Imbalanced Data In Remote Sensing Images, Wajira Abeysinghe
Master of Science in Computer Science Theses
Imbalanced data is a common problem in machine learning where the number of observations that belong to one class is significantly lower than other classes. Due to the skewed distribution among the classes, most classification algorithms fail to classify minority instances effectively. The class imbalance problem can be found in many domains such as credit card fraud detection and rare diseases diagnosis.
Imbalanced data is a prominent issue also in remote sensing images (RSI) which are used to obtain information of earth resources and the surrounding environment. RSI are collected by special cameras that capture information from a specific wavelength …
