Transfer Learning For Predictive Maintenance: A Case Study, Colter A. Swanson
Transfer Learning For Predictive Maintenance: A Case Study, Colter A. Swanson
Masters Theses
In light of recent strides in high-performance computing, the concept of transfer learning has emerged as a prominent paradigm within the realm of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning methodologies. Analogous to the human brain's capacity to assimilate information across related domains for pattern recognition, transfer learning has swiftly asserted its dominance, particularly in deep learning applications such as image classification and natural language processing. Despite its ascendancy in these domains, there exists a lack of comprehensive investigations in alternative domains, notably those encompassing tabular data formats. This thesis seeks to redress this gap by conducting an empirical examination of transfer …
Advancing Compact Modeling Of Electronic Devices: Machine Learning Approaches With Neural Networks, Mixture Density Networks, And Deep Symbolic Regression, Jack Robert Hutchins
Advancing Compact Modeling Of Electronic Devices: Machine Learning Approaches With Neural Networks, Mixture Density Networks, And Deep Symbolic Regression, Jack Robert Hutchins
Masters Theses
This thesis pioneers the integration of deep learning techniques into the realm of compact modeling, presenting three distinct approaches that enhance the precision, efficiency, and adaptability of compact models for electronic devices. The first method introduces a Generalized Multilayer Perception Compact Model, leveraging the function approximation capabilities of neural networks through a multilayer perception (MLP) framework. This approach utilizes hyperband tuning to optimize network hyperparameters, demonstrating its effectiveness on a HfOx memristor and establishing a versatile modeling strategy for both single-state and multistate devices.
The second approach explores the application of Mixture Density Networks (MDNs) to encapsulate the inherent stochasticity …

Evaluation Of Robust Deep Learning Pipelines Targeting Low Swap Edge Deployment, David Carter Cornett
Masters Theses
The deep learning technique of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has greatly advanced the state-of-the-art for computer vision tasks such as image classification and object detection. These solutions rely on large systems leveraging wattage-hungry GPUs to provide the computational power to achieve such performance. However, the size, weight and power (SWaP) requirements of these conventional GPU-based deep learning systems are not suitable when a solution requires deployment to so called "Edge" environments such as autonomous vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and smart security cameras.
The objective of this work is to benchmark FPGA-based alternatives to conventional GPU systems that have the …
