• An application of machine learning techniques to interactive, constraint-based search 

    Harbert, Christopher W. (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 ...
  • Design of learning objects to support constructivist learning environments 

    Liu, Yuanliang (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
    Using Constructivism to guide the design of learning objects, we develop a generic structure that classifies knowledge into different types on different levels. With a simple generic structure of learning object, learners ...
  • DiffServ overlay multicast for videoconferencing 

    Wagh, Prasad J. (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
    In this dissertation a framework for implementing videoconference in a DiffServ network (DiffServ Overlay Multicast) is proposed. DiffServ Overlay Multicast uses an overlay multicast algorithm for calculating the multicast ...
  • Experimental study of localization in sensor networks and design of adaptive localization algorithms 

    Ahmed, Ahmed Abdol-Monem, 1972- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
    [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] We design an experimental framework to evaluate localization methods for sensor networks. We use this framework to evaluate three existing localization ...
  • Language modeling for automatic speech recognition in telehealth 

    Zhang, Xiaojia, 1977- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
    Standard statistic n-gram language models play a critical and indispensable role in automatic speech recognition (ASR) applications. Though helpful to ASR, it suffers from a practical problem when lacking sufficient in-domain ...
  • Real-time speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recoginition 

    Li, Xiaolong, 1976- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
    In this dissertation, a real-time decoding engine for speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) is presented. Three indispensable and correlated performance measurements -- accuracy, speed, ...
  • Visualizing biochemical networks with Netview 

    Chikkabel, Archana (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
    Networks are modelled as graphs and are represented visually using graph-drawing algorithms. Visualization of such big networks help biologists understand them. In this paper, we present a Java 3d-based visualization toolkit ...
