Appearance modeling for persistent object tracking in wide-area and full motion video
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)Object tracking is a core element of computer vision and autonomous systems. As such single and multiple object tracking has been widely investigated especially for full motion video sequences. The acquisition of wide-area ... -
Application of deep learning networks to crime prediction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Crimes are a major public concern in cities. Every day, a tremendous amount of law enforcement and policemen have been assigned to patrol and protect ... -
Application of deep reinforcement learning for battery design
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The conventional material research and development are mainly driven by human intuition, labor, and manual decision. It is ineffective and inefficient. ... -
An application of machine learning techniques to interactive, constraint-based search
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)Search engine users frequently place additional constraints on search results that are not included in the user's original query. To respond to these additional constraints, search engine designers frequently add an "advanced ... -
Application-driven overlay network as a service for data-intensive science
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Campuses are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud architectures for supporting data-intensive science applications that require "on-demand" resources, ... -
Applications of deep neural networks to protein structure prediction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)Protein secondary structure, backbone torsion angle and other secondary structure features can provide useful information for protein 3D structure prediction and protein functions. Deep learning offers a new opportunity ... -
Applying visual routines in a cognitive model of visual analysis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)Through years of experience, expert image analysts acquire knowledge which allows them to perform an in-depth analysis of images quickly and efficiently. This research aims to build a humanlike framework and cognitive model ... -
An approach to clustering biological phenotypes /
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Recently emerging approaches to high-throughput phenotyping have become important tools in unraveling the biological basis of agronomically and medically important phenotypes. These experiments produce very large sets of ... -
Architecting the spatial enablement of a film location database for enhanced geographic analysis and query
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The Missouri Film Commission hosts data and resources that producers of film and video need in order to choose locations. This data includes only ... -
Augmenting biological pathway extraction with synthetic data and active learning
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)The corpus of biomedical literature is growing rapidly as many papers are recorded in PubMed every day. These papers often contain high-quality biological pathways in their figures/text, which are great resources for ... -
Automated defense against targeted attacks using suspiciousness tracking
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Cloud ecosystems, technologies, and paradigms have transformed our world in recent years revolutionizing supply chains, healthcare, energy distribution, as well as our home functions. With everything in our lives so ... -
Automated vector-vector and vector-imagery geospatial conflation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)With the rapid advance of geospatial technologies, the availability of geospatial data from multiple sources has increased dramatically. Integration of multi-source geospatial data can provide insights and capabilities not ... -
Automatic 3D face reconstruction and tracking using consumer RGB-D camera
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] 3D face reconstruction and tracking has become an important research topic during the past few decades in both computer graphics and computer vision. ... -
Automatic geospatial content summarization and visibility enhancement by dehazing in aerial imagery
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The objective of this work is to develop a methodology to summarize the content of a long sequential geospatial video using a few geospatial coverage ... -
Automating database curation with workflow technology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)Building scientific databases is extremely difficult and expensive. Costs could be reduced if the experts who curate the deposited data, are provided with data that are reviewed by other experts at lower levels for accuracy ... -
