Learning Deep Representations, Embeddings and Codes from the Pixel Level of Natural and Medical Images
DownloadFall 2013
Significant research has gone into engineering representations that can identify high-level semantic structure in images, such as objects, people, events and scenes. Recently there has been a shift towards learning representations of images either on top of dense features or directly from the...

This thesis studies how to enable a real-world robot to efficiently learn a new task by watching human demonstration videos. We propose to introduce a geometric task structure as an interpretable inductive bias to the learning problem. We aim to learn a representation that geometrically encodes...

Learning in silico Reactant and Bond-of-Metabolism Predictors for Human Cytochrome P450 Enzymes
DownloadFall 2019
Human beings are exposed to many chemicals through their routine interactions with the environment, such as food/drug consumption, household or workplace activities, industrial or transportation activities, and even common environmental processes. Once absorbed, these chemicals are usually...

Learning Individual Readmission-Free Survival Distributions using Longitudinal Medical Events
DownloadFall 2023
The rate of 30-day hospital readmission is a common measurement of hospital quality, which can affect the funding a hospital receives. Over a quarter of readmissions are estimated to be preventable with adequate interventions, but these interventions are themselves costly. For this reason, many...

In the field of metabolomics, mass spectrometry (MS) is the most widely adopted method for identifying metabolites. Conventionally, metabolite identification involves matching the target mass spectrum against experimentally acquired reference mass spectral libraries. However, the limited coverage...

The electrocardiogram (ECG) records the electrical activity of a patient’s heart movement. It is one of the standard routine healthcare tests as it is non-invasive and easy to apply. In this thesis, we analyze 2 million ECGs and over 260,000 patients’ health records from the Alberta Health...

While it is very difficult to diagnose/prognosis psychiatric disorders reliably, especially in early course, such early diagnosis/prognosis is critical for producing an effective treatment. This necessity has motivated many researchers to apply machine learning approaches to high-dimensional...

In this thesis we consider the task of catching a moving target with multiple pursuers, also known as the “Pursuit Game”, in which coordination among the pursuers is critical. Our testbed is inspired by the pursuit problem in video games, which require fast planning to guarantee fluid frame...

Learning online is essential for an agent to perform well in an ever-changing world. An agent has to learn online not only out of necessity --- a non-stationary world might render past learning useless --- but also because continual tracking in a temporally coherent world can result in better...
