Algorithms for the Reeb Graph and Related Concepts
(2014)This thesis is concerned with a structure called the Reeb graph. There are three main problems considered. The first is devising an efficient algorithm for comnstructing the Reeb graph of a simplicial complex with respect ... -
Ambush on Black Veterans: Foreign Disinformation Swayed the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election by Targeting Black Voters
(2023-04-19)A Russian-orchestrated influence campaign spread disinformation using social media during the 2016 United States (U.S.) presidential election. Digital evidence shows that Russian operatives developed presumptions about differing ... -
Developing Scalable Abilities for Self-Reconfigurable Robots
(2010)The power of modern computer systems is due in no small part to their fantastic ability to adapt to whatever tasks they are charged with. Self-reconfigurable robots seek to provide that flexibility in hardware by building ... -
Discriminación y colonialidad en la visión algorítmica. Abordajes artísticos para una revisión crítica de la clasificación de personas
(Revista 180, 2021-12-31)A la luz de propuestas artísticas con medios digitales y, específicamente, con inteligencia artificial, en este artículo se analiza críticamente la discriminación de personas en modelos de aprendizaje de máquinas; en particular, ... -
Essays on Criminal Justice and Inequality
(2022)This dissertation encompasses three essays on policing and criminal justice, algorithms and inequality. The first two essays examine the efficacy and equity implications of data-driven algorithms that are increasingly used ... -
Homological Illusions of Persistence and Stability
(2008-08-04)In this thesis we explore and extend the theory of persistent homology, which captures topological features of a function by pairing its critical values. The result is represented by a collection of points in the extended ... -
Methods for Systematic Exploratory Analysis of Gene Expression Data with Applications to Cancer Genomics
(2017)Advances in technologies for gene expression profiling have resulted in an unprecedented abundance of gene expression data. However, computational methods available for the exploratory analysis of such data are limited in ... -
Two Algorithmic Schemes for Geometric Bipartite Matching and Transportation
(2020)Given n red points and n blue points in d-dimensional space and a distance function, the geometric bipartite matching problem is to find a matching of red points to blue points, such that the sum of distances between the ...
