Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are very popular nowadays and offer reliable solutions to many classification problems. Recent research indicates that these neural networks might be overparameterized and different solutions have been...
Chan-Vese is a level set method that simultaneously evolves a level set surface and fits locally constant intensity models for the interior and exterior regions to minimize a Mumford-Shah integral. However, the length-based contour...
Clustering is a widely used technique with a long and rich history in a variety of areas. However, most existing algorithms do not scale well to large datasets, or are missing theoretical guarantees of convergence. In this dissertation, ...
In the foreseeable future, autonomous vehicles will have to drive alongside human drivers. In the absence of vehicle-to-vehicle communication, they will have to be able to predict the other road users' intentions. Equally importantly, ...
Interest in online rating data has increased in recent years in which ordinal ratings of products or local businesses are provided by users of a website, such as Yelp! or Amazon. One source of heterogeneity in ratings is that users apply...
Artificial Neural Networks form the basis of very powerful learning methods. It has been observed that a naive application of fully connected neural networks often leads to overfitting. In an attempt to circumvent this issue, a prior...
