Visualizing Academic Research |
|||
|
|
|
This is a system for visualizing academic activity and collaborations between research institutions. The system aggregates publications from the ACM Digital Library, and provides interactive visualization of institutions publication activity (in terms of publication counts, conference venues, and references made between institutions).

Believable Character Authoring & Execution Environment |
|||
|
|
|
SecondMind is an environment for creating intelligent virtual characters. The system is composed of an AI backend for generation of intelligent character behaviors, and a UI frontend through which users demonstrate behaviors and program character personalities. I was part of the initial team of graduate students which developed the concept for this system through iterative high level design, use case development, and user studies. Publications : C.

ACE: |
|||
|
|
|
ACE is an intelligent tutoring environment for teaching high-school mathematics. The system models users through a Bayesian network and adapts its behavior to maximize student learning. My work on the existing project involved developing new functionality and utility tools, conducting a user study at a local high-school, performing associated data analysis and interface improvements.

NEMOS: |
|||
|
|
|
This is a platform for coupling the paradigms of Web Services and Mobile Agents. It is an extension of my honors thesis project, the NEMO infrastructure, to allow mobile agents to make use of Web 2.0 network services. This infrastructure permits network resources to be semantically annotated, such that agents can intelligently perform tasks in the network. A knowledge management interface and visual-programming environment were also developed as part of this project. Publications : Iulian Radu, Son T. Vuong.
