A Finite-Horizon Approach To Active Level Set Estimation, Phillip Kearns, Bruno Jedynak, John Lipor
A Finite-Horizon Approach To Active Level Set Estimation, Phillip Kearns, Bruno Jedynak, John Lipor
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications and Presentations
We consider the problem of active learning for level set estimation (LSE), where the goal is to localize all regions where a function of interest lies above/below a given threshold as quickly as possible. We present a finitehorizon search procedure to perform LSE in one dimension while optimally balancing both the final estimation error and the distance traveled during active learning for a fixed number of samples. A tuning parameter is used to trade off between the estimation accuracy and distance traveled. We show that the resulting optimization problem can be solved in closed form and that the resulting policy …

Finite Sum Of Integral Operators From The Fractional Cauchy Spaces To Bloch-Type And Zygmund-Type Spaces, Rita A. Hibschweiler, Ajay K. Sharma
Finite Sum Of Integral Operators From The Fractional Cauchy Spaces To Bloch-Type And Zygmund-Type Spaces, Rita A. Hibschweiler, Ajay K. Sharma
Faculty Publications
The family of fractional Cauchy transforms, defined on the open unit disc in the complex plane, is of classical and modern interest. Membership of an analytic function in the family is determined by the requirement that the function can be expressed as an integral of a certain kernel against a complex Borel measure on the disc. Such an integral representation imposes a growth condition on the function and its derivatives. This exposes a connection between the families of Cauchy transforms and familiar spaces of analytic functions, such as the Bloch spaces and the Zygmund space. The notion of a composition …

Diverse Disconnectedness: Homophily, Social Capital Inequality, And Student Experiences In Law School, Anthony Paik, Swethaa Ballakrishnen, Carole Silver, Steven Boutcher, Tanya Rouleau Whitworth
Faculty Publications
Law school students are encouraged frequently to “network.” However, depending on demographic categories, they may have access to differently resourced social networks in law school. In this article, we draw from our mixed-methods research to explore this diversity of experience, its limitations of access, and the possible network inequalities that may limit the value of legal education to diverse students across different institutional contexts. Using survey and network data (N = 744), collected during the fall of 2019 from three law schools, as well as supplementary interview data (N = 55), we examined students’ social networks, the structures of these …

Supporting Secondary Math Students In Developing A Positive Math Identity, Sarah Reisdorf Berger
School of Education and Leadership Student Capstone Projects
It is not uncommon for students (and adults) to experience anxiety when it comes to math class. The underlying notion that mathematics is simply not meant for some while being meant for others permeates the culture in the United States. For students, the development of their math identities begins at an early age and is heavily influenced by their experiences in school, specifically the math classroom. With so much at stake in terms of identity development, achievement, and future success, this capstone project sought to explore the question: How can students be actively supported in building a positive math identity …
