Improving Deep Entity Resolution By Constraints, Soudeh Nilforoushan Aug 2022

Improving Deep Entity Resolution By Constraints, Soudeh Nilforoushan

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Entity resolutions the problem of finding duplicate data in a dataset and resolving possible differences and inconsistencies. ER is a long-standing data management and information retrieval problem and a core data integration and cleaning task. There are diverse solutions for ER that apply rule-based techniques, pairwise binary classification, clustering, and probabilistic inference, among other techniques. Deep learning (DL) has been extensively used for ER and has shown competitive performance compared to conventional ER solutions. The state-of-the-art (SOTA) ER solutions using DL are based on pairwise comparison and binary classification. They transform pairs of records into a latent space that can …

Simultaneous Energy Harvesting And Gait Recognition Using Piezoelectric Energy Harvester, Dong Ma, Guohao Lan, Weitao Xu, Mahbub Hassan, Wen Hu

Piezoelectric energy harvester, which generates electricity from stress or vibrations, is gaining increasing attention as a viable solution to extend battery life in wearables. Recent research further reveals that, besides generating energy, PEH can also serve as a passive sensor to detect human gait power-efficiently because its stress or vibration patterns are significantly influenced by the gait. However, as PEHs are not designed for precise measurement of motion, achievable gait recognition accuracy remains low with conventional classification algorithms. The accuracy deteriorates further when the generated electricity is stored simultaneously. To classify gait reliably while simultaneously storing generated energy, we make …


Entity Based Sentiment Analysis For Textual Health Advice, Dae Lim Chung Apr 2022

Entity Based Sentiment Analysis For Textual Health Advice, Dae Lim Chung

Computer Science Senior Theses

This work explores entity based sentiment analysis for textual health advice through deep learning. We fine tuned a pretrained BERT model to analyze sentiments across five different predetermined categories which consist of food, medicine, disease, exercise, and vitality for three different sentiments: positive, negative, and neutral. Original set of annotated medical dataset from Dartmouth College’s Persist Lab was used to conduct the experiments. For the aim of tailoring the data for the purpose of entity based sentiment analysis, we explored data transformation techniques to generate optimum training examples. During the experiments, we were able to discover that the wide variety …

Food retrieval is an important task to perform analysis of food-related information, where we are interested in retrieving relevant information about the queried food item such as ingredients, cooking instructions, etc. In this paper, we investigate cross-modal retrieval between food images and cooking recipes. The goal is to learn an embedding of images and recipes in a common feature space, such that the corresponding image-recipe embeddings lie close to one another. Two major challenges in addressing this problem are 1) large intra-variance and small inter-variance across cross-modal food data; and 2) difficulties in obtaining discriminative recipe representations. To address these …
