Atoms And Leaves, Patty Tomanovich
Atoms And Leaves, Patty Tomanovich
Theses
Atoms and Leaves is a photographic project presented as windows into a utopia. The glass images display a potential time and place where the landscape, photography, and transness intertwine and grow from each other. Photography historically harms the landscape- requiring precious metals, releasing pollution into the atmosphere, and creating hazardous water waste. The traditional photographic canon erases the connection between queerness and ecology. Atoms and Leaves rethreads these connections, creating a world where photography collaborates with the landscape and takes on a transgender perspective by reshaping given material. The photographic printing process developed in this project was inspired by the …

Learning From Disagreement In Human-Annotated Datasets, Tharindu Cyril Weerasooriya
Learning From Disagreement In Human-Annotated Datasets, Tharindu Cyril Weerasooriya
Theses
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems frequently need to learn from human decision makers, which aids in scaling systems for mass use. We see this in automated financial decisions, manufacturing processes, self- driving cars, and content moderation on social networks. These systems are built on human values and trained to mimic human decision-making through human annotation. However, different groups of human annotators, including domain experts, annotate content differently, leading to disagreements. Some practitioners treat dissenting opinions as “label noise”. A common approach to dealing with disagreement is to consider a majority vote, which effectively conceals the disagreements from the trained model. Although …
Novel Methods For Modeling And Treating Biofilm Infections, Emily Lazarus
Novel Methods For Modeling And Treating Biofilm Infections, Emily Lazarus
Theses
Biofilms are responsible for the development of chronic infections, which are 10-1000 times more resistant to antimicrobial agents than two-dimensional (2D) planktonic culture. Traditionally, 2D planktonic cultures are used to study efficacy of antimicrobial treatments but 2D cultures have several shortcomings such as increased sensitivity to treatments, lack of complexity of the three-dimensional (3D) environment, limited host defense mechanisms, and lack the structural thickness of natural biofilms. Biofilm-related infections play a critical role in the delayed healing process of chronic skin wounds, and while treatments for chronic skin wounds exist, including negative pressure wound healing (NPWT), biofilm infections still prevail. …
Hierarchical Parameterization In Spherical Domains For Deforming Feature Alignment, Lizhou Cao
Hierarchical Parameterization In Spherical Domains For Deforming Feature Alignment, Lizhou Cao
Theses
The growing interest in immersive technology and lifelike virtual worlds has underscored the importance of creating automated methods to generate characters with a wide range of morphological variations. Traditional methods have either depended heavily on manual effort or simplified the challenge by only addressing static meshes or basic deformation transfers, without supporting dynamic shape morphing with deformation. In this work, we introduce a novel method that leverages cross-parameterization to semi-automate the creation of characters that are not only morphologically varied but also capable of synthesized deformation and animations. The key innovation of our work lies in the parameterization of deforming …
