Sparse Feature Learning For Image Analysis In Segmentation, Classification, And Disease Diagnosis., Ehsan Hosseini-Asl
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The success of machine learning algorithms generally depends on intermediate data representation, called features that disentangle the hidden factors of variation in data. Moreover, machine learning models are required to be generalized, in order to reduce the specificity or bias toward the training dataset. Unsupervised feature learning is useful in taking advantage of large amount of unlabeled data, which is available to capture these variations. However, learned features are required to capture variational patterns in data space. In this dissertation, unsupervised feature learning with sparsity is investigated for sparse and local feature extraction with application to lung segmentation, interpretable deep …

Greenc5: An Adaptive, Energy-Aware Collection For Green Software Development, Junya Michanan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Dynamic data structures in software applications have been shown to have a large impact on system performance. In this paper, we explore energy saving opportunities of interface-based dynamic data structures. Our results suggest that savings opportunities exist in the C5 Collection between 16.95% and 97.50%. We propose a prototype and architecture for creating adaptive green data structures by applying machine learning tools to build a model for predicting energy efficient data structures based on the dynamic workload. Our neural network model can classify energy efficient data structures based on features such as the number of elements, frequency of operations, interface …

A Near-To-Far Learning Framework For Terrain Characterization Using An Aerial/Ground-Vehicle Team, Ashkan Hajjam
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In this thesis, a novel framework for adaptive terrain characterization of untraversed far terrain in a natural outdoor setting is presented. The system learns the association between visual appearance of different terrain and the proprioceptive characteristics of that terrain in a self-supervised framework. The proprioceptive characteristics of the terrain are acquired by inertial sensors recording measurements of one second traversals that are mapped into the frequency domain and later through a clustering technique classified into discrete proprioceptive classes. Later, these labels are used as training inputs to the adaptive visual classifier. The visual classifier uses images captured by an aerial …
