Classification Of Electropherograms Using Machine Learning For Parkinson’S Disease, Soroush Dehghan Jan 2022

Classification Of Electropherograms Using Machine Learning For Parkinson’S Disease, Soroush Dehghan

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative movement disorder that progresses gradually over time. The onset of symptoms in people who are suffering from PD can vary from case to case, and it depends on the progression of the disease in each patient. The PD symptoms gradually develop and exacerbate the patient’s movements throughout time. An early diagnosis of PD could improve the outcomes of treatments and could potentially delay the progression of this disorder and that makes discovering a new diagnostic method valuable. In this study, I investigate the feasibility of using a machine learning (ML) approach to classify PD …


Surrogate Modeling Of Fluid Flows With Physics-Aware Graph Neural Networks, Emanuel Raad Jan 2022

Surrogate Modeling Of Fluid Flows With Physics-Aware Graph Neural Networks, Emanuel Raad

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Graph neural networks provide a framework for learning on unstructured data, such as meshes used for solving Computational Fluid Dynamics problems. However, current applications do not take advantage of known physical laws in the training process. This thesis addresses that gap by introducing graph convolution layers to calculate the divergence and gradient operator. The convolutions are valid on any 2D or 3D graph storing spatial data, and can be added to existing graph architectures. Using these convolutions, the residuals of the conservation of mass and momentum equations are computed and minimized through a physics-aware loss function. Two classical fluid dynamics …


Cloud-Based Machine Learning And Sentiment Analysis, Emmanuel C. Opara Jan 2022

Cloud-Based Machine Learning And Sentiment Analysis, Emmanuel C. Opara

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The role of a Data Scientist is becoming increasingly ubiquitous as companies and institutions see the need to gain additional insights and information from data to make better decisions to improve the quality-of-service delivery to customers. This thesis document contains three aspects of data science projects aimed at improving tools and techniques used in analyzing and evaluating data. The first research study involved the use of a standard cybersecurity dataset and cloud-based auto-machine learning algorithms were applied to detect vulnerabilities in the network traffic data. The performance of the algorithms was measured and compared using standard evaluation metrics. The second …
