Indoor And Outdoor Localization In An Unknown Environment With Window Detection For Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Laphonchai Jirachuphun Jan 2022

Indoor And Outdoor Localization In An Unknown Environment With Window Detection For Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Laphonchai Jirachuphun

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

In this thesis, we design and build a system for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). We combine, adjust and improve existing open-source algorithms for localization tasks in an indoor and outdoor environment with window detection for transitioning between the two environments. For outdoor localization, we mainly use GPS, while for indoor localization, we use Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). However, for the transitioning area where the GPS is unreliable and the environment has too few structures for EKf, we use an opening such as a window or a door for localization with a stereo camera. We compare our technique with GPS only, …


Content And Community Based Hybrid Tag Recommendation, Umaporn Padungkiatwattana Jan 2022

Content And Community Based Hybrid Tag Recommendation, Umaporn Padungkiatwattana

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Personalized hashtag recommendations can provide relevant hashtags for a microblog. Despite performance improvement, three challenges remain unexplored. First, previous works construct user and hashtag representations based on relations from themselves. We argue that users and hashtags are influenced not only by their own relations (i.e., first-order relations) but also by the relations of a distant user/hashtag that is indirectly connected in multiple communities (i.e., high-order relations). Second, prior works perform personalization at the microblog level while ignoring the user aspects presented for each word in the microblog. Third, past studies capture correlations among hashtags in the same microblog by considering …

Real-Time Object Detection For Screening Cannabis Seed Gender, Prachya Boonsri Jan 2022

Real-Time Object Detection For Screening Cannabis Seed Gender, Prachya Boonsri

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Perception and understanding of cannabis are more expansive than they formerly were. Almost all growers are primarily interested in getting harvests of big flower buds from cannabis female plants since THC, CBD and other cannabinoids are found in female flowers and valuable for medical and industrial market segments. Selecting only female seeds to cultivate is thus an important step to produce THC, CBD profitably. Unfortunately, outdoor cultivation in Thailand traditionally grows regular cannabis seeds that grow up of mixed male and female plants. The male plants will be later spot and eliminated during the pre-flowering stage. This incurs the higher …

We applied this technique to seven Java systems …


Y-X-Y Encoding For Identifying Types Of Sentence Similarity, Thanaporn Jinnovart Jan 2022

Y-X-Y Encoding For Identifying Types Of Sentence Similarity, Thanaporn Jinnovart

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

The task of finding semantic similarity of any two arbitrary sentences consists of two main steps, which are encoding sentences to produce feature vectors of equal length and measuring the similarity, respectively. The quality of an encoding technique can determine the degree of success a model can achieve in measuring the similarity. This is because a good representation is subjected to how finely established the spectrum of similarities is. The clearer the definition of similarity is, the better the representations can be constructed. This, in turn, helps distinguish between types of sentences. Generally, all existing methods for measuring similarity were …

Hashtag Recommendation Based On Neural Topic Model, Thunchanok Tangpong Jan 2022

Hashtag Recommendation Based On Neural Topic Model, Thunchanok Tangpong

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Hashtag recommendation is a method that aims to recommend the relevant hashtag to the target microblog. The previous work applies a topic model for discovering the topic of users, words, and hashtags. Despite their progress, two problems remain unresolved. Firstly, the previous work infers topic distribution by using a non-neural network framework which is a non-linear function, limiting the model's ability to capture topic distribution complexly. Secondly, the representation of words and hashtags used in the prior model is merely the frequency of words, making the model to ignore not only word context but also the relation between word and …

Steps Before Syntax: Helping Novice Programmers Solve Problems Using The Pcdit Framework, Oka Kurniawan, Cyrille Jegourel, Norman Tiong Seng Lee, Matthieu De Mari, Christopher M. Poskitt

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Novice programmers often struggle with problem solving due to the high cognitive loads they face. Furthermore, many introductory programming courses do not explicitly teach it, assuming that problem solving skills are acquired along the way. In this paper, we present 'PCDIT', a non-linear problem solving framework that provides scaffolding to guide novice programmers through the process of transforming a problem specification into an implemented and tested solution for an imperative programming language. A key distinction of PCDIT is its focus on developing concrete cases for the problem early without actually writing test code: students are instead encouraged to think about …

On Discovering Motifs And Frequent Patterns In Spatial Trajectories With Discrete Fréchet Distance, Bo Tang, Man Lung Yiu, Kyriakos Mouratidis, Jiahao Zhang, Kai Wang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The discrete Fréchet distance (DFD) captures perceptual and geographical similarity between two trajectories. It has been successfully adopted in a multitude of applications, such as signature and handwriting recognition, computer graphics, as well as geographic applications. Spatial applications, e.g., sports analysis, traffic analysis, etc. require discovering similar subtrajectories within a single trajectory or across multiple trajectories. In this paper, we adopt DFD as the similarity measure, and study two representative trajectory analysis problems, namely, motif discovery and frequent pattern discovery. Due to the time complexity of DFD, these tasks are computationally challenging. We address that challenge with a suite of …

Computational Analysis Of Drug Targets And Prediction Of Protein-Compound Interactions, Sina Ghadermarzi Jan 2022

Computational Analysis Of Drug Targets And Prediction Of Protein-Compound Interactions, Sina Ghadermarzi

Theses and Dissertations

Computational prediction of compound-protein interactions generated a substantial amount of interest in the recent years owing to the importance of the knowledge of these interaction for drug discovery and drug repurposing efforts. Research suggests that the currently known drug targets constitute only a fraction of a complete set of drug targets, limiting our ability to identify suitable targets to develop new drugs or to repurpose current drugs for new diseases. These efforts are further thwarted by our limited knowledge of protein-drug (and more generally protein-compound) interactions, where only a subset of drug targets is typically known for the currently used …


Contextual Documentation Referencing On Stack Overflow, Sebastian Baltes, Christoph Treude, Martin P. Robillard Jan 2022

Contextual Documentation Referencing On Stack Overflow, Sebastian Baltes, Christoph Treude, Martin P. Robillard

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Software engineering is knowledge-intensive and requires software developers to continually search for knowledge, often on community question answering platforms such as Stack Overflow. Such information sharing platforms do not exist in isolation, and part of the evidence that they exist in a broader software documentation ecosystem is the common presence of hyperlinks to other documentation resources found in forum posts. With the goal of helping to improve the information diffusion between Stack Overflow and other documentation resources, we conducted a study to answer the question of how and why documentation is referenced in Stack Overflow threads. We sampled and classified …

Learning From Web Recipe-Image Pairs For Food Recognition: Problem, Baselines And Performance, Bin Zhu, Chong-Wah Ngo, Wing-Kwong Chan

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Cross-modal recipe retrieval has recently been explored for food recognition and understanding. Text-rich recipe provides not only visual content information (e.g., ingredients, dish presentation) but also procedure of food preparation (cutting and cooking styles). The paired data is leveraged to train deep models to retrieve recipes for food images. Most recipes on the Web include sample pictures as the references. The paired multimedia data is not noise-free, due to errors such as pairing of images containing partially prepared dishes with recipes. The content of recipes and food images are not always consistent due to free-style writing and preparation of food …
