Conditional Variational Autoencoder (Cvae) For The Augmentation Of Ecl Biosensor Data, Matthew Dulcich Apr 2022

Conditional Variational Autoencoder (Cvae) For The Augmentation Of Ecl Biosensor Data, Matthew Dulcich

Honors Theses

Machine Learning (ML) is vastly improving the world, from computer vision to fully self-driving cars, we are now able accomplish objectives that were thought to only be dreams. In order to train ML models accurately, they require mountains of information to work with, but sometimes it becomes impossible to collect the data needed, so we turn to data augmentation. In this project we use a conditional variational auto encoder to supplement the original video electrochemiluminescence biosensor dataset, in order to increase the accuracy of a future classification model. In other words, using a cVAE we will create unique realistic videos …


Exploring The Efficiency Of Neural Architecture Search (Nas) Modules, Joshua Dulcich Apr 2022

Exploring The Efficiency Of Neural Architecture Search (Nas) Modules, Joshua Dulcich

Honors Theses

Machine learning is obscure and expensive to develop. Neural architecture search (NAS) algorithms automate this process by learning to create premier ML networks, minimizing the bias and necessity of human experts. From this recently emerging field, most research has focused on optimizing a promisingly unique combination of NAS’s three segments. Despite regularly acquiring state of the art results, this practice sacrifices computing time and resources for slight increases in accuracy; this also obstructs performance comparison across papers. To resolve this issue, we use NASLib’s modular library to test the efficiency per module in a unique subset of combinations. Each NAS …


On The Reliability Of Wearable Sensors For Assessing Movement Disorder-Related Gait Quality And Imbalance: A Case Study Of Multiple Sclerosis, Steven Díaz Hernández Mar 2022

On The Reliability Of Wearable Sensors For Assessing Movement Disorder-Related Gait Quality And Imbalance: A Case Study Of Multiple Sclerosis, Steven Díaz Hernández

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Approximately 33 million American adults had a movement disorder associated with medication use, ear infections, injury, or neurological disorders in 2008, with over 18 million people affected by neurological disorders worldwide. Physical therapists assist people with movement disorders by providing interventions to reduce pain, improve mobility, avoid surgeries, and prevent falls and secondary complications of neurodegenerative disorders. Current gait assessments used by physical therapists, such as the Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale, provide only semi-quantitative data, and cannot assess walking quality in detail or describe how one’s walking quality changes over time. As a result, quantitative systems have grownas useful tools …

A Combined Approach For Private Indexing Mechanism, Pranita Maruti Desai Ms., Vijay Maruti Shelake Mr. Mar 2022

A Combined Approach For Private Indexing Mechanism, Pranita Maruti Desai Ms., Vijay Maruti Shelake Mr.

Journal of Digital Forensics, Security and Law

Private indexing is a set of approaches for analyzing research data that are similar or resemble similar ones. This is used in the database to keep track of the keys and their values. The main subject of this research is private indexing in record linkage to secure the data. Because unique personal identification numbers or social security numbers are not accessible in most countries or databases, data linkage is limited to attributes such as date of birth and names to distinguish between the number of records and the real-life entities they represent. For security reasons, the encryption of these identifiers …

Research On Active Learning Method And Application Based On Covariance Matrix, Bowen Zhou, Weili Xiong Mar 2022

Research On Active Learning Method And Application Based On Covariance Matrix, Bowen Zhou, Weili Xiong

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Since the data collected from industrial processes often contain a large number of unlabeled samples, while the number of labeled samples is small and the cost of manual labeling is high, an active learning method based on covariance matrix is proposed. This method uses labeled samples to establish a Gaussian process regression model, and constructs the covariance matrix between the unlabeled samples, using the value of the determinant of the covariance matrix as an evaluation indicator. While selecting informative unlabeled samples, the similarity between samples is measured to avoid redundant addition of samples, which finally improves model prediction accuracy …
