Computational Approaches To Facilitate Automated Interchange Between Music And Art, Rao Hamza Ali May 2022

Computational Approaches To Facilitate Automated Interchange Between Music And Art, Rao Hamza Ali

Computational and Data Sciences (PhD) Dissertations

Recently, there has been a tremendous increase in generating and synthesizing music and art using various computational techniques. An area that is still under-researched, however, is how one medium can be converted into the other, while maintaining the overall aesthetics. Over the last few centuries, artists, composers, and scholars, have attempted to use substitute one form of art for the other: by proposing techniques where music notes are synonymous to colors, by inventing instruments that combine the aesthetics of music and visual art, and by incorporating the two media in live performances. A widely accepted computational approach, for the conversion, …


Enhancing Microbiome Host Disease Prediction With Variational Autoencoders, Celeste Manughian-Peter Aug 2021

Enhancing Microbiome Host Disease Prediction With Variational Autoencoders, Celeste Manughian-Peter

Computational and Data Sciences (MS) Theses

Advancements in genetic sequencing methods for microbiomes in recent decades have permitted the collection of taxonomic and functional profiles of microbial communities, accelerating the discovery of the functional aspects of the microbiome and generating an increased interest among clinicians in applying these techniques with patients. This advancement has coincided with software and hardware improvements in the field of machine learning and deep learning. Combined, these advancements implicate further potential for progress in disease diagnosis and treatment in humans. The ability to classify a human microbiome profile into a disease category, and additionally identify the differentiating factors within the profile between …
