PhysioMiner : a scalable cloud based framework for physiological waveform mining
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
This work presents PhysioMiner, a large scale machine learning and analytics framework for physiological waveform mining. It is a scalable and flexible solution for researchers and practitioners to build predictive models ...
Sanitizing private data for repair systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
The SOLAR system helps restore interconnected system integrity after security attacks with a focus of minimizing the exposure of sensitive data in the repair logs. It builds upon Warp, a repair system for Django web ...
Affordance-based control of a variable-autonomy telerobot
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
Most robot platforms operate in one of two modes: full autonomy, usually in the lab; or low-level teleoperation, usually in the field. Full autonomy is currently realizable only in narrow domains of robotics-like mapping ...
Indium arsenide quantum dots for single photons in the communications band
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
This thesis presents work towards engineering and characterizing epitaxial Indium Arsenide (InAs) quantum dots as single photon sources in the optical communications C-Band (Conventional Band; 1535 nm-1565 nm wavelength). ...
FlexGP 2.0 : multiple levels of parallelism in distributed machine learning via genetic programming
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
This thesis presents FlexGP 2.0, a distributed cloud-backed machine learning system. FlexGP 2.0 features multiple levels of parallelism which provide a significant improvement in accuracy v.s. elapsed time. The amount of ...
Development and performance-testing of Multi-Path I/O algorithms on V-Series systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
As data growth continues to accelerate, so must performance and efficiency of large scale storage systems. This project will present the implementation and performance analysis of Multi-Path I/O within Data ONTAP. The goal ...
A study in human attention to guide computational action recognition
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
Computer vision researchers have a lot to learn from the human visual system. We, as humans, are usually unaware of how enormously difficult it is to watch a scene and summarize its most important events in words. We only ...
Old man coyote stories : cross-cultural story understanding in the Genesis story understanding system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
The original question was: "Can machines think?" Alan Turing asked: "Does there exist a digital computer that can do sufficiently well at the imitation game?" Patrick Winston asked: "What makes human intelligence different ...
Efficient wireless charging with gallium nitride FETs
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
Though wireless charging is more convenient than traditional wired charging methods, it is currently less efficient. This not only wastes power but can also result in a longer charging time. Improving the efficiency of ...
Development of a powered transtibial prosthesis for ball room dancing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
Research on lower extremity prostheses has primarily focused on activities of daily living, such as walking and running, but has largely overlooked less common activities. As a result, traditional prosthetic devices are ...
