Abstract:
The advent of automated machine learning (AutoML) tools promises to democratize machine learning to non-experts in the field. These tools certainly effect the process of applying machine learning for non-experts, but it is not clear how data scientists will be able to draw benefit from having access to automated machine learning systems. This bachelor thesis is an inquiry into how an application of one such AutoML system, Google Cloud AutoML, can improve upon commercial state of the art ensemble models. Specifically, inferences about unimportant features were examined and removed from an ensem

Abstract:
Logical frameworks allow us to specify formal systems and prove properties about them. One interesting logical framework is Twelf, a language that uses higher order abstract syntax to encode object languages into the meta language. Currently, uniform proofs have been used for describing proof search in backwards logic programming style. However, there are certain limitations to a backward system, for example, loop-detection mechanisms are required for some of the simplest problems to yield a solution. As a consequence, the search for a more effective proof search algorithm prevails and a forwa

Abstract:
Speculative multithreading (SpMT), also known as thread level speculation (TLS), is a dynamic parallelization technique that relies on out-of-order execution, dependence buffering, and misspeculation rollback to achieve speedup of sequential programs on multiprocessors. A large number of hardware studies have shown good results for irregular programs, as have a smaller number of software studies in the context of loop level speculation for unmanaged languages.In this thesis we explore software method level speculation for Java.

Abstract:
Vortex filaments are isolated tubes of vorticity, the behaviour of which is important to the understanding of the fluid flows they are found in. Vortex reconnection, the change in filament topology when filaments collide, is a particular phenomenon that cannot be modelled by the traditional vortex method, which leads (Ghuneim, 2002) to integrate it with the level set method. However, the computational complexity of this method's traditional implementation severly limits the types of simulations possible. Motivated by this, we propose a new level set implementation that stores voxels in a tree

Abstract:
A study of feasibility is performed for the development of a nowcasting method of aircraft icing conditions. The supercooled cloud water content is a key parameter for the determination of hazardous regions. The production of supercooled water in clouds is possible only where sufficiently strong updraft produces supersaturation with respect to water. However, to maintain the presence of supercooled droplets, the generation of moisture excess during the air uplift must exceed the rate of vapor deposition on snow and the rate of snow riming. The "storm of the century" (March 13-14, 1993) has bee

But humans recognize words not just through bottom-up processing, but also top-down. In many cases of listening, one can usually predict what will come based on the preceding context, or one can determine what has been pronounced by listening to the following sounds. Th

Abstract:
Thesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2007.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 61-62).<br>This thesis proposes and implements ANA, a new method for the simulation of ARM programs on the ARM platform. ANA is a lightweight ARM instruction interpreter that uses the hardware to do a lot of the work for the read-decode-execute piece of simulation. We compare this method to the two existing methods of full simulation and direct execution that have been traditionally used to achieve this. We demonstrate that despite some
