The Bird's Ear View: Audification for the Spectral Analysis of Heliospheric Time Series Data.
(2015)
The sciences are inundated with a tremendous volume of data, and the analysis of rapidly expanding data archives presents a persistent challenge. Previous research in the field of data sonification suggests that auditory ...
Selected Problems for High-Dimensional Data - Quantile and Errors-in-Variables Regressions.
(2016)
This dissertation addresses two problems. First, we study joint quantile regression at multiple quantile levels with high dimensional covariates. Variable selection performed at individual quantile levels may lack stability ...
A Legibility Equation for Determining Ideal Viewing Areas in Lecture Halls.
(2008)
Text presented in modern lecture halls often simultaneously appears on multiple visual media (e.g., blackboard, projection screens, TV) that have different locations, geometries, orientations, and lighting conditions. An ...

Finding the Grammar of Generative Craft
(2021)
Art and craft design is challenging even with the assistance of computer-aided design tools. Despite the increasing availability and intelligence of software and hardware, artists continue to find gaps between their practices ...
Programmatic Design Methods in Architecture (GA+TRIZ Solution Search Method)
(2019)
When an architectural design problem is stated, it may take several iterations to evaluate the design alternatives, modify the problem statement and the corresponding solutions and make the final decision. The recursive ...
Generative Reciprocity: A Computational Approach for Performance-Based and Fabrication-Aware Design of Reciprocal Systems
(2020)
Using the capabilities of computation and digital fabrication this thesis provides a basis for a novel process of design to fabrication for reciprocal systems.
In the traditional sense, reciprocal structures combine the ...
