Doctoral Thesis: Rigorously Tested & Reliable Machine Learning for Health

Michael Oberst Abstract: How do we make machine learning as rigorously tested and reliable as any medication or diagnostic test? Machine learning (ML) has the potential to improve decision-making

Doctoral Thesis: Compiler-Hardware Co-Design for Pervasive Parallelization

Victor A. Ying Abstract:Parallelization is critical to fast computation, but it remains a painstaking and piecemeal practice. This dissertation shows how new compilers and hardware can make parallelization

Doctoral Thesis: From Structured Document To Structured Knowledge

Yujie Qian Abstract: Structured documents, such as scientific literature and medical records, are rich resources of knowledge. However, most natural language processing techniques treat these documents as plain

Doctoral Thesis: Function Follows Form: An Exploration of Robotic Embodiment through Geometry

Lillian Chin Abstract:Current robot designers often treat a robot’s body as merely a vessel to transport the brain, limiting the potential scope of “embodied intelligence” that is unique

Doctoral Thesis: Privacy-Preserving Video Analytics

Frank Cangialosi Abstract:  As video cameras have become pervasive in public settings and accurate computer vision has become commonplace, there has been increasing interest in collecting and processing

Doctoral Thesis: Player Capability and Locally Suboptimal Behavior in Strategic Games

Yichen Yang Abstract: Research in game theory has surfaced many interesting phenomena on how strategic players interact in various game settings. In this thesis, I consider two topics

Doctoral Thesis: AI-Based Speech Assessment of Cognitive Impairment Disorders

R’mani Haulcy Abstract: Previous research has shown that speech can be used to detect cognitive impairment in patients with dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases. These diseases produce cognitive deficits
