Improving feedback in elementary mathematics autograders
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)
As schools grow more crowded and required testing outcomes become more stringent, teachers experience increasing demands on their time. To ease this load, I designed a program that is able to give students thorough, automated ...
Understanding the doer effect for computational subjects with MOOCs
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
In this thesis, we examined the relationship between the doer effect and learning computational subjects. Computational thinking is becoming increasingly important for students and professionals, and teaching this thought ...
Modelling signal interactions with application to financial time series
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
In this thesis, we concern ourselves with the problem of reasoning over a set of objects evolving over time that are coupled through interaction structures that are themselves changing over time. We focus on inferring ...
SenseML : a platform for constructing IOT data pipelines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
In this thesis, we present SenseML. SenseML is a general-purpose platform that enables users to transform sensor data from the IOT domain into a machine learning-ready format - what we call an attribute time series. It is ...
Increasing customization in a location-based augmented reality software platform
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
In this thesis, I designed and implemented a framework for adding customizable icons to an existing location-based augmented reality software platform. This platform is comprised of a browser-based editor and a mobile ...
Online social network sensors for influenza outbreaks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Previous research has shown strong correlations between postings on the online social network Twitter where users complain of influenza-like symptoms, and clinical data on actual influenza rates. In addition, previous ...
Improving learnability of high functionality user interfaces through simplification without loss of functionality
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Justify is a high-functionality web application that helps users clearly state arguments and organize them in a meaningful structure, however due to its complicated user interface and abundance of point types, it is extremely ...
Web-based data visualization and optimization methods for applications in urban planning
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)
This thesis deals with the problem of enhancing the understanding of urban information through interactive data-driven visualization and planning tools. In the first part of the thesis, I present a series of web-based data ...
Multi-volume high resolution RGB-D mapping with dynamic volume placement
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)
We present a novel method for creating high-resolution 3D reconstructions using RGB-D cameras, such as the Microsoft Kinect. We demonstrate how such a technique can be used both for large scale mapping and high-resolution ...
Automatic documentation generation from source code
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)
Many systems lack robust documentation because writing documentation comes at a cost for developers and offers little immediate benefits. To motivate developers to write more documentation, we need a framework that ...
