Autonomous Systems With Reuse: A Survey On The State-Of-The-Practice, Denny Laverne Hood Iii
Autonomous Systems With Reuse: A Survey On The State-Of-The-Practice, Denny Laverne Hood Iii
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports
This problem report presents the results of an anonymous online survey that was used to collect information about software systems that use model-based software engineering, contain autonomy and where software reuse plays an important role. Recent advancements in computation ability and the emergence of decision-making algorithms have increased interest in and use of autonomy in applications areas such as aeronautics, automotive, military, and space industries. In these application domains, autonomy is used to reduce costs, reduce reaction times, and improve performance. Due to the emerging nature of autonomy, very little research has been done regarding the level of autonomy of …
Evaluation And Understandability Of Face Image Quality Assessment, Mohammad I. Nouyed
Evaluation And Understandability Of Face Image Quality Assessment, Mohammad I. Nouyed
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports
Face image quality assessment (FIQA) has been an area of interest to researchers as a way to improve the face recognition accuracy. By filtering out the low quality images we can reduce various difficulties faced in unconstrained face recognition, such as, failure in face or facial landmark detection or low presence of useful facial information. In last decade or so, researchers have proposed different methods to assess the face image quality, spanning from fusion of quality measures to using learning based methods. Different approaches have their own strength and weaknesses. But, it is hard to perform a comparative assessment of …
Quantifying Human Biological Age: A Machine Learning Approach, Syed Ashiqur Rahman
Quantifying Human Biological Age: A Machine Learning Approach, Syed Ashiqur Rahman
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports
Quantifying human biological age is an important and difficult challenge. Different biomarkers and numerous approaches have been studied for biological age prediction, each with its advantages and limitations. In this work, we first introduce a new anthropometric measure (called Surface-based Body Shape Index, SBSI) that accounts for both body shape and body size, and evaluate its performance as a predictor of all-cause mortality. We analyzed data from the National Health and Human Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Based on the analysis, we introduce a new body shape index constructed from four important anthropometric determinants of body shape and body size: body …

Deep Learning For Image Restoration And Robotic Vision, Yixin Du
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports
Traditional model-based approach requires the formulation of mathematical model, and the model often has limited performance. The quality of an image may degrade due to a variety of reasons: It could be the context of scene is affected by weather conditions such as haze, rain, and snow; It's also possible that there is some noise generated during image processing/transmission (e.g., artifacts generated during compression.). The goal of image restoration is to restore the image back to desirable quality both subjectively and objectively. Agricultural robotics is gaining interest these days since most agricultural works are lengthy and repetitive. Computer vision is …
