Each patient with Type-1 diabetes must decide how much insulin to inject before each meal to maintain an acceptable level of blood glucose. The actual injection dose is based on a formula that takes current blood glucose level and the meal size into consideration. While following this insulin...

Ideal agent behaviour in multiagent environments depends on the behaviour of other agents. Consequently, acting to maximize utility is challenging since an agent must gather and exploit knowledge about how the other (potentially adaptive) agents behave. In this thesis, we investigate how an...

Optimal Mechanisms for Machine Learning: A Game-Theoretic Approach to Designing Machine Learning Competitions
DownloadSpring 2013
In this thesis we consider problems where a self-interested entity, called the principal, has private access to some data that she wishes to use to solve a prediction problem by outsourcing the development of the predictor to some other parties. Assuming the principal, who needs the machine...

Polarity classification in text is the problem of automatically detecting the general opinion of textual data. Analyzing the general opinion toward a topic of interest is important for different audiences, such as companies, politicians or even regular users. On the other hand, the availability of...

Technical report TR03-14. Identifying the destination or localization of proteins is key to understanding their function and facilitating their purification. A number of existing computational prediction methods are based on sequence analysis. However, these methods are limited in scope, accuracy...

This thesis addresses the challenge of prognosis, in terms of survival prediction, for patients with Glioblastoma Multiforme brain tumors. Glioblastoma is the most malignant brain tumor, which has a median survival time of no more than a year. Accurate assessment of prognostic factors is critical...

Public Health Applications Using Big Data and Machine Learning Methods: Name- and Location-based Aboriginal Ethnicity Classification and Sentiment Analysis of Breast Cancer Screening in the United States Using Twitter
DownloadFall 2017
Applications using big data and machine learning techniques are transforming how people live in the 21st century, however they are generally underutilized in public health compared to other domains. We proposed and conducted two independent studies to investigate how big data and machine learning...
