A Multimodal Approach To Sarcasm Detection On Social Media, Dipto Das
A Multimodal Approach To Sarcasm Detection On Social Media, Dipto Das
MSU Graduate Theses
In recent times, a major share of human communication takes place online. The main reason being the ease of communication on social networking sites (SNSs). Due to the variety and large number of users, SNSs have drawn the attention of the computer science (CS) community, particularly the affective computing (also known as emotional AI), information retrieval, natural language processing, and data mining groups. Researchers are trying to make computers understand the nuances of human communication including sentiment and sarcasm. Emotion or sentiment detection requires more insights about the communication than it does for factual information retrieval. Sarcasm detection is particularly …

Blocks' Network: Redesign Architecture Based On Blockchain Technology, Moataz Hanif
Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses
The Internet is a global network that uses communication protocols. It is considered the most important system reached by humanity, which no one can abandon. However, this technology has become a weapon that threatens the privacy of users, especially in the client-server model, where data is stored and managed privately. Additionally, users have no power over their data that store in a private server, which means users’ data may interrupt by government or might be sold via service provider for-profit purposes. Furthermore, blockchain is a technology that we can rely on to solve issues related to client-server model if appropriately …
Dish: Democracy In State Houses, Nicholas A. Russo
Dish: Democracy In State Houses, Nicholas A. Russo
Master's Theses
In our current political climate, state level legislators have become increasingly impor- tant. Due to cuts in funding and growing focus at the national level, public oversight for these legislators has drastically decreased. This makes it difficult for citizens and activists to understand the relationships and commonalities between legislators. This thesis provides three contributions to address this issue. First, we created a data set containing over 1200 features focused on a legislator’s activity on bills. Second, we created embeddings that represented a legislator’s level of activity and engagement for a given bill using a custom model called Democracy2Vec. Third, we …

A Semester Long Classroom Course Mimicking A Software Company And A New Hire Experience For Computer Science Students Preparing To Enter The Software Industry, David A. Chamberlain
Master’s Theses and Projects
Students in a Computer Science degree programs must learn to code before they can be taught Software Engineering skills. This core skill set is how to program and consists of the constructs of various languages, how to create short programs or applications, independent assignments, and arrive at solutions that utilize the skills being covered in the language for that course (Chatley & Field, 2017). As an upperclassman, students will often be allowed to apply these skills in newer ways and have the opportunity to work on longer, more involved assignments although frequently still independent or in small groups of two …
Bridging Act-R And Project Malmo, Developing Models Of Behavior In Complex Environments, David M. Schwartz
Bridging Act-R And Project Malmo, Developing Models Of Behavior In Complex Environments, David M. Schwartz
Honors Theses
Cognitive architectures such as ACT-R provide a system for simulating the mind and human behavior. On their own they model decision making of an isolated agent. However, applying a cognitive architecture to a complex environment yields more interesting results about how people make decisions in more realistic scenarios. Furthermore, cognitive architectures enable researchers to study human behavior in dangerous tasks which cannot be tested because they would harm participants. Nonetheless, these architectures aren’t commonly applied to such environments as they don’t come with one. It is left to the researcher to develop a task environment for their model. The difficulty …
U.S. Census Explorer: A Gui And Visualization Tool For The U.S. Census Data Api, Timothy Snyder
U.S. Census Explorer: A Gui And Visualization Tool For The U.S. Census Data Api, Timothy Snyder
Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects
U.S. Census Explorer is a software application that is designed to provide tools for intuitive exploration and analysis of United States census data for non-technical users. The application serves as an interface into the U.S. Census Bureau’s data API that enables a complete workflow from data acquisition to data visualization without the need for technical intervention from the user. The suite of tools provided include a graphical user interface for dynamically querying U.S. census data, geographic visualizations, and the ability to download your work to common spreadsheet and image formats for inclusion in external works.
