Abstract:

Aliasing is a potential source of problems in software development and can, for example,lead to data races in concurrent programs. More recent programming languages includealiasing control in order to catch more errors at compile time. However, this does notexist for most widely-used languages.LaCasa introduces aliasing control to Scala. LaCasa is a type system and program-ming model that provides lightweight unique and affine (consumable) object referencesin Scala. The unique references provided by LaCasa enable messages to be passed effi-ciently by reference. They also guarantee a deep-copy

Abstract:

Solving NP-hard facility location problems in wireless network planning is a common scenario. In our research, we study the Covering problem, a well known facility location problem with applications in wireless network deployment. We focus on networks with a sparse structure. First, we analyzed two heuristics of building Tree Decomposition based on vertex separator and perfect elimination order. We extended the vertex separator heuristic to improve its time performance. Second, we propose a dynamic programming algorithm based on the Tree Decomposition to solve the Covering problem optimally on

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with improving the effectiveness of nearest neighbour search. Nearest neighbour search is the problem of finding the most similar data-points to a query in a database, and is a fundamental operation that has found wide applicability in many fields. In this thesis the focus is placed on hashing-based approximate nearest neighbour search methods that generate similar binary hashcodes for similar data-points. These hashcodes can be used as the indices into the buckets of hashtables for fast search. This work explores how the quality of search can be improved by learning t

Island biogeography theory predicts that the patterns and distributions of spatially isolated populations are governed by large scale processes. The high elevations forests in the Southern Appalachians represent a series of naturally fragmented islands that harbor many isolated populations of species at the southern limits of their range. Understanding the governing forces of population dynamics in this region will enhance the probability of species persistence in the face of threats such as global warming and human development.

In this thesis, we explore a variety of such distance learning problems using different amounts/types of supervision and provide efficient and scalable algorithms to learn appropriate distance functions for each of these
