Design and Evaluation of a Presentation Maestro: Controlling Electronic Presentations Through Gesture
(University of Waterloo, 2009-11-09)Gesture-based interaction has long been seen as a natural means of input for electronic presentation systems; however, gesture-based presentation systems have not been evaluated in real-world contexts, and the implications ... -
Enhancements to Hidden Markov Models for Gene Finding and Other Biological Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2005)In this thesis, we present enhancements of hidden Markov models for the problem of finding genes in DNA sequences. Genes are the parts of DNA that serve as a template for synthesis of proteins. Thus, gene finding ... -
Linearizing Contextual Multi-Armed Bandit Problems with Latent Dynamics
(University of Waterloo, 2022-02-10)In many real-world applications of multi-armed bandit problems, both rewards and observed contexts are often influenced by confounding latent variables which evolve stochastically over time. While the observed contexts and ...
