Information Economics in the Age of e-Commerce: Models and Mechanisms for Information-Rich Markets
(2013-02-25)The internet has dramatically changed the landscape of both markets and computation with the advent of electronic commerce (e-commerce). It has accelerated transactions, informed buyers, and allowed interactions to be ... -
Information Extraction from Semi-Structured Websites
The World Wide Web contains countless semi-structured websites, which present information via text embedded in rich layout and visual features. These websites can be a source of information for populating knowledge bases ... -
Information Retrieval Methods for DNA Data Storage
This thesis presents methods of data retrieval in DNA data storage systems. While DNA has been considered a promising data storage medium for decades for its data density, durability, programmability, and eternal relevance, ... -
Input Devices for the Next Generation of Computing Platforms
Our personal computing devices are becoming smaller, more powerful, and more tightly coupled to our body. Emerging computing platforms, such as wearable displays for virtual and augmented reality, promise to revolutionize ... -
Intelligence Through the Lens of Interaction
In this thesis, I will discuss the problem of acquiring visual intelligence from the interaction, focusing on two aspects of visual understanding: (1) visual perception and (2) embodied intelligence. To address the first ... -
Intelligent Behavior in Autonomous Agents through Optimization and Learning
The dream of intelligent robotics performing useful tasks is predicated on the ability to quickly generate complex behaviors. These systems must be able to dynamically react and adapt to unstructured environments and ... -
Intelligent Earable Systems for Equitable Healthcare
Access to basic medical resources like hearing care is influenced by factors like an individual’s birth country. This lack of access is often due to the prohibitively high prices of medical devices which cannot be afforded ... -
Interactive AI Model Debugging and Correction
While the accuracy of Natural Language Processing (NLP) models has been improving, users have expectations beyond what is captured by standard performance metrics. For example, chatbot assistants should not provide ... -
Interactive Analysis of Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing Data
Analysis of single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets is a complex and time-consuming process, requiring both biological knowledge and technical skill. With the rapid growth in scRNA-seq datasets and the increasing ... -
Interactive character animation using dynamic elastic simulation
(2004)This dissertation describes a framework for interactively animating characters such as humans and animals based on dynamic elastic simulation. Using dynamic simulation, the secondary motion of the character's soft tissue ... -
Interactive Data Integration and Entity Resolution for Exploratory Visual Data Analytics
Data has become more widely available to the public for consumption, for example, through the Web and the recent “Open Data” movement. An emerging cohort of users, called Data Enthusiasts, want to analyze this data, but ... -
Interactive In-Situ Scene Capture on Mobile Devices
Architectural visualizations of indoor scenes enable compelling applications in several areas, such as real estate, interior design, cultural heritage preservation, and more recently, immersive virtual reality. Computer-Aided ... -
Interactive Learning of Relation Extractors with Weak Supervision
(2013-04-17)The ability to automatically convert natural language text into a knowledge base may open the door to great new opportunities, including question-answering on the Web, detection of trends and sentiments in social media, ... -
Interactive Playspaces for Object Assembly and Digital Storytelling
(2013-11-14)Today we observe a consistent shift towards doing our tasks virtually through machines. This mode of work ensures that the users are not tied by lack of resources required for the task, and get additional advantages like ... -
Interactive Systems for Scalable Visualization and Analysis
While computers can help us manage data, human judgment and domain expertise is what turns it into understanding. Meeting the challenges of increasingly large and complex data requires methods that richly integrate the ... -
Interference-Free Regions and Their Application to Compiler Optimization and Data-Race Detection
(2013-02-25)Programming languages must be defined precisely so that programmers can reason carefully about the behavior of their code and language implementers can provide correct and efficient compilers and interpreters. However, ... -
Interpretation Errors: Extracting Functionality from Generative Models of Language by Understanding Them Better
The rise of large language models as the workhorse of NLP, and the continuous release of better models (OpenAI, 2023; Pichai, 2023; Schulman et al., 2022, inter alia) has created a strange situation: we have models that ... -
Investigating Constrained Objects in AR for Validation of Real-life Models
Augmented Reality (AR) studies the approaches that enhance reality by integrating virtual content into the physical environment in real-time. In the simplest form, virtual objects in the physical environment are stationary, ... -
Investigating Natural Language Interactions in Communities
In this work, we investigate language use in communities. First, we study how authors of scientific textsexplain how their paper relates to another. We propose a new task, relationship explanation generation for scientific ... -
A kernel for distributed and shared memory communication
(1982)Interprocess communication via shared memory has received considerable attention in the past. More recently, there has been a growing interest in communication in distribution environments. This dissertation examines ...
