Dictionary-Based Data Generation For Fine-Tuning Bert For Adverbial Paraphrasing Tasks, Mark Anthony Carthon
Theses and Dissertations
Recent advances in natural language processing technology have led to the emergence of
large and deep pre-trained neural networks. The use and focus of these networks are on transfer
learning. More specifically, retraining or fine-tuning such pre-trained networks to achieve state
of the art performance in a variety of challenging natural language processing/understanding
(NLP/NLU) tasks. In this thesis, we focus on identifying paraphrases at the sentence level using
the network Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT). It is well
understood that in deep learning the volume and quality of training data is a determining factor
of performance. The objective of …

A Study Of The Efficacy Of Machine Learning For Diagnosing Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease In Non-Diabetic Patients, Demond Larae Handley
Theses and Dissertations
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 18.2 million adults age 20 and older have Coronary Artery Disease in the United States. Early diagnosis is therefore of crucial importance to help prevent debilitating consequences, and principally death for many patients. In this study we use data containing gene expression values from peripheral blood samples in 198 non-diabetic patients, with the goal of developing an age and sex gene expression model for diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease. We employ machine learning methods to obtain a classification based on genetic information, age and sex. Our implementation uses feed forward …
