Bridging the gap for hardware transactional memory
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2018-10-31)
Transactional memory (TM) is a promising new tool for shared memory application development. Unlike mutual exclusion locks, TM allows atomic sections to execute concurrently, optimistically predicting the threads will not ...
Visual question answering and beyond
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-09-03)
In this dissertation, I propose and study a multi-modal Artificial Intelligence (AI) task called Visual Question Answering (VQA) -- given an image and a natural language question about the image (e.g., "What kind of store ...
Improving in-house testing using field execution data
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-08-14)
Software testing is today the most widely used approach for assessing and improving software quality. Despite its popularity, however, software testing has a number of inherent limitations. First, due to resource limitations, ...
Graph-level operations: A high-level interface for graph visualization technique specification
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2016-08-18)
More and more the world is being described as graphs---as connections between people, places, and ideas---since they provide a richer model than simply understanding each item in isolation. In order to help analysts ...
Process-structure linkages with materials knowledge systems
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2016-09-09)
The search for optimal manufacturing process routes that results in the combination of desired properties for any application is a highly dimensional optimization problem due to the hierarchical nature of material structure. ...
Exploring the usability of augmented reality interaction techniques during children's early elementary-school years
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2016-08-24)
Augmented reality (AR) has been shown to have measurable benefits in enriching children's lives, by advancing education through in-situ 3D visualizations, providing entertainment through whole-body interaction, and enhancing ...
Evaluating visual conversational agents via cooperative human-AI games
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-04-26)
As AI continues to advance, human-AI teams are inevitable. However, progress in AI is routinely measured in isolation, without a human in the loop. It is crucial to benchmark progress in AI, not just in isolation, but ...
Algorithmic, game theoretic and learning theoretic aspects of distributed optimization
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2016-08-26)
Distributed systems are fundamental to today's world. Many modern problems involve multiple agents either competing or coordinating across a network, and even tasks
that are not inherently distributed are often divided ...
Urban 3D scene understanding from images
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2018-01-22)
Human vision is marvelous in obtaining a structured representation of complex dynamic scenes, such as spatial scene-layout, re-organization of the scene into its constituent objects, support of each object, etc. We also ...
Image retrieval and geolocalization with deep learning
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-01-09)
This work studies image localization task and explores image ranking/retrieval approach. Deep Learning has advanced many computer vision task including image retrieval; in addition, location tagged image data has become ...
