Comparative Experiments on Disambiguating Word Senses: An Illustration of the Role of Bias in Machine Learning

TL;DR: An experimental comparison of seven different learning algorithms on the problem of learning to disambiguate the meaning of a word from context finds the statistical and neural-network methods perform the best on this particular problem.

Quadric-based polygonal surface simplification

TL;DR: This dissertation presents a simplification algorithm, based on iterative vertex pair contraction, that can simplify both the geometry and topology of manifold as well as non-manifold surfaces, and proves a direct mathematical connection between the quadric metric and surface curvature.

WALRUS: a similarity retrieval algorithm for image databases

TL;DR: WALRUS (wavelet-based retrieval of user-specified scenes), a novel similarity retrieval algorithm that is robust to scaling and translation of objects within an image, is proposed and Experimental results on real-life data sets corroborate the effectiveness of WALR US'S similarity model.

Supporting program comprehension using semantic and structural information

TL;DR: Focuses on investigating the combined use of semantic and structural information of programs to support the comprehension tasks involved in the maintenance and reengineering of software systems.

Learning and example selection for object and pattern detection

TL;DR: This thesis presents a learning based approach for detecting classes of objects and patterns with variable image appearance but highly predictable image boundaries, and proposes an active learning formulation for function approximation, and shows that the active example selection strategy learns its target with fewer data samples than random sampling.
