    • A Computer Vision and Maps Aided Tool for Campus Navigation 
      Hall, Alexander James
      Current study abroad trips rely on students utilizing GPS directions and digital maps for navigation. While GPS-based navigation may be more straightforward and easier for some to use than traditional paper maps, studies ...
    • An adaptive application of multiquadric interpolants for numerically modeling large numbers of irregularly spaced hydrographic data 
      Schiro, Richard Anthon (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)
      The approximation or interpolation of irregularly spaced data in two or higher dimensions is extremely difficult in contrast to the one dimensional case. No one method works well in all instances with the possible exception ...
    • Adaptive topological configuration of an integrated circuit/packet-switched computer network 
      Kiemele, Mark Ja (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)
      This research investigates the performance and design of integrated circuit/packet-switched computer-communication networks. The integrated network under consideration has a circuit-switched communications subnet whose ...
    • An AI System for Coaching Novice Programmers 
      Cruz, Gilberto; Jones, Jacob; Morrow, Meagan (2015-10-23)
      Rapidly giving students meaningful feedback is a key component in an effective educational experience. A common problem in modern education is scalability, as class size increases the ability of the instructor to rapidly ...
    • Analysis of a hybrid algorithm for packing unequal bins 
      Kuhl, Frederick Stephe (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)
      We consider a bin-packing problem where the sizes of the bins are allowed to vary and where the goal is to maximize the number of pieces packed. This problem is NP-Hard. We examine a new efficient approximation algorithm ...
    • Analyzing the Flow of Information from Initial Publishing to Wikipedia 
      Villanueva, Nathan T
      This thesis covers my efforts at researching the factors that lead to a research paper being cited by Wikipedia. Wikipedia is one of the most popular websites on the internet for quickly learning about a specific topic. ...
    • Analyzing TnSeq Data to Predict Insertion Counts in M. tuberculosis 
      Brown, Adlie Jacob
      TnSeq is a genetic method used to evaluate the essentiality of genes in bacteria, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It uses random insertions by the Himar1 transposon and high throughput sequencing to determine the most ...
    • Challenges in Research Experimentation with Open-source Platforms for Serverless Computing 
      Bailey, Kalista Kimbri
      Cloud computing technology has enabled enterprises in all societal domains to achieve remarkable growth by harnessing data and computation power without an upfront investment in computer infrastructure or any expense in ...
    • The design and implementation of an ecological simulation development environment 
      George, Leroy Conra (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)
      Researchers have suggested two approaches for designing software development environments (SDEs) aimed at alleviating the software crisis: an evolutionary approach that supports the contemporary software life cycle model ...
    • Exploring Optimizations in Multi-Task Recommendation via Manipulating Auxiliary Gradients 
      Lee, Ronald
      Auxiliary Task Learning has proven to be an effective way to transfer knowledge between tasks. This is the case in many personalized recommendation scenarios, where many auxiliary tasks can boost the performance of the ...
    • Few Shot Learning to Improve Deep Medical Model Transfer 
      Berezoski, Dayton Lee
      The advent of machine learning has changed the way healthcare providers care for their patients. Utilizing data driven models, healthcare workers are now able to predict and account for symptoms in patients before they ...
    • Human-Computer Interaction in Study Room Reservation Systems 
      Stadler, Clara Frances
      Study rooms provide a key resource for college students. However, many study spaces require reservations ahead of time to manage high demand. A reservation system serves to control the flow and population of a building to ...
    • IMEGS, an incremental multi-language editor generator and system 
      Bagert, Donald Josep (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)
      A limitation of current selection-entry syntax-directed editors is that a particular editor is limited to manipulating programs in one particular programming language. The IMEGS research project was initiated with one of ...
    • A language directed software development environment 
      Reese, Richard Marti (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)
      This paper presents the design and prototype implementation of a language directed Software Development Environment (SDE) which permits the hiding of developmental information, provides a flexible means of control of the ...
    • Medial-Axis Biased Rapidly-Exploring Random Trees 
      Greco, Evan (2012-05-09)
      RRTs (Rapidly-Exploring Random Trees) have shown wide applications in robotics. RRTs are a type of sampling-based motion planners that expand to fill the space starting from one or more root configurations. RRTs are excellent ...
    • A methodology for the analysis of programmer productivity and effort estimation within the framework of software conversion 
      Fernandez, John Dieg (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)
      Software conversion is becoming increasingly significant as the inventory of programs increases and as the life cycle of many applications becomes longer. Although some work has been done in the area of software conversion, ...
