      Haplosporidium nelsoni (MSX) and Perkinsus marinus (Dermo) are protozoan parasites that are traditionally detected using time and labor intensive histological methods. Recently developed traditional PCR assays, specific ...
    • Mehlhop, Nathan Alexander; Ogletree, William Travis
      We investigate non-random quantum channels generated from the representation the- ory of orthogonal quantum groups to perform numerical computations for estimates of their minimum output entropies. In doing so, we address ...
    • Torres, Brandon Lee
      The basic unit of information within quantum mechanics can be modeled through two-level systems to provide a foundational understanding of quantum information theory. These quantum systems, which can be represented by ...
