Guiding Deep Probabilistic Models
Deep probabilistic models utilize deep neural networks to learn probability distributions in high-dimensional data spaces. Learning and inference in these models are complicated due to the difficulty of direct evaluation of the differences between the model distribution and the target. This thesis …

Modeling, predicting, and guiding users' temporal behaviors
… for modeling, learning, predicting, and guiding users’ temporal behaviors. Within the proposed framework, we introduce a pipeline of newly developed statistical models, state-of-the-arts learning algorithms to tackle several canonical problems in theory and practice, including: (1) …

Hospitality in Adventure Tourism:: Being, dwelling, guiding
This thesis, through narrating outdoor guiding as hospitality work, brings together two broad areas of academic inquiry – adventure tourism and hospitality studies. Building on existentialist propositions of dwelling as a way of being in the world, more-than-human sociology and a poststructuralist …

Beyond Wilderness: Wildness as a Guiding Ideal
… a case for, and to explicate, wildness as a guiding ideal. I affirm one of Cronon’s objections to wilderness and thus argue that given the previous presence of humans in many wilderness landscapes and the continued presence of wildness within peopled landscapes, a more viable position is to …

Guiding Labor: Sensable Instructions through Digital Jigs
Contemporary architects find themselves at a juncture, navigating the transition from traditional modes of instruction to an asymmetrical integration of digital technologies. Drawings remain central to architectural practice, yet a widening gap persists between tools for making drawings and tools …

Improving Protein Conformational Sampling by Using Guiding Projections
The ability of a protein to perform its function is mainly dened by the spatial shape it exists in and the way the protein alternates between several stable shapes. To prevent or cure diseases related to protein malfunctioning we study the conformational space of proteins. Sampling-based motion …

HOME : collecting narratives, promoting dialogue, and guiding change
Home is where the heart is, the saying goes. The quest for home is ever-present. When looking at the destructive nature of urban planning history - urban renewal, redlining, block busting, etc. - it is imperative to see urban planning's historical impact on the communities vulnerable populations, …

Metabolic and genetic factors guiding hematopoietic cell fate
Proper organismal development requires precise control over cellular identity, and a wide range of diseases is characterized by altered differentiation states. Understanding the environmental factors that interplay with gene expression networks to regulate cell state holds immense potential for …

Novel resonant and light-guiding phenomena in photonics
… theoretically five novel resonant and light-guiding photonics phenomena. First, we develop a universal coupled mode theory (CMT) treatment of the freespace scattering of waves from resonant objects. This analytical framework very accurately models the scattering and absorption cross sections, …

Automatic Bayesian Inference of Reaction Networks via Guiding
… further provides a library of strategies for guiding a jump process to match an observation set. These strategies exploit the form of the underlying symbolic reaction network to automatically produce guides optimized to the particular reaction network structure of interest to the modeler, …

Guiding RTL Test Generation Using Relevant Potential Invariants
In this thesis, we propose to use relevant potential invariants in a simulation-based swarmintelligence-based test generation technique to generate relevant test vectors for design validation at the Register Transfer Level (RTL). Providing useful guidance to the test generator for such techniques …

Guiding navigation of unknown environments with distant visual cues
While navigating unknown environments, robots rely primarily on proximate features for guidance in decision making such as depth information from lidar or stereo to build a costmap, or local semantic information from images. The limited range over which these features can be used can result in poor …

New Leader Mentoring: Guiding Nursing Leaders Of The Future
<p>Nursing leaders throughout our health care system are retiring or leaving at an alarming rate – over 60% of the nursing leader workforce is expected to leave in the next five years. Retention of new nurse leaders is crucial to retention of clinical nurses, morale, and patient outcomes. …
