Bile Acid Metabolism and Gastrointestinal Microbiota in Dogs with Chronic Inflammatory Enteropathy
(2019-04-04)
Chronic inflammatory enteropathy (CIE) is a common cause of gastrointestinal signs in dogs, but its etiology is poorly understood. Dogs with CIE have imbalances in their bile acid (BA) metabolism and gastrointestinal ...
Preconditioning, Formation, and Impact of Maud Rise and Weddell Sea Polynyas in a High-Resolution Earth System Model
(2019-04-18)
Open ocean polynyas (OOPs) in the Southern Ocean are ice-free areas within the winter ice pack that are associated with deep convection, potentially contributing to the formation of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW). To enhance ...
A FLEXIBLE PROCEDURE FOR POSITIVE–UNLABELED LEARNING & PERIODS ESTIMATION FOR MIRAS USING MULTI-BAND LIGHT CURVES AND INVERSE PERIOD-LUMINOSITY RELATIONS
(2019-05-28)
This dissertation contains two independent projects: the first project develops a general methodology for solving the Positive–Unlabeled (PU) learning problem, and the second project creates a hierarchical Bayesian model ...
DFT Study of Copper-Nickel (111) Catalyst for Methane Dry Reforming
(2019-03-21)
No one can deny that the increasing energy demand -due to world population booming- and climate change are two major challenges facing humanity in the current century. Climate change phenomenon is basically related to green ...
Performance Analysis of Dispersed Spectrum Cognitive Radio Systems
(2011-02-22)
Dispersed spectrum cognitive radio systems represent a promising approach to exploit the utilization of spectral resources to full extent. Therefore, the performance analysis of such systems is conducted in this research. ...
Auxiliary Loss Weighting for Robust Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion with Deep Neural Networks
(2019-04-08)
The major focus of this research is on sensor fusion. Sensor fusion means to combine multiple sensory input or data from different source such that the performance is better than the best performance would be when those ...
Particle Gaussian Mixture Filters for Nonlinear Non-Gaussian Bayesian Estimation
(2019-03-14)
Nonlinear filtering is the problem of estimating the state of a stochastic nonlinear
dynamical system using noisy observations. It is well known that the posterior state
estimates in nonlinear problems may assume non-Gaussian ...
A New Multiscale Algorithm and the Framework of Code Systems for Advanced Defect Cluster Dynamics Simulations
(2019-04-03)
In the research of void swelling for reactor material, the dynamics of defect clusters is an important topic during the research of principles for this phenomenon. The simulation of defect cluster evolution pursues more ...
HARDWARE INSTRUCTION BASED CRC32C, A BETTER ALTERNATIVE TO THE TCP ONE’S COMPLEMENT CHECKSUM
(2019-06-28)
End-to-end data integrity is of utmost importance when sending data through a communication network, and a common way to ensure this is by appending a few bits for error detection (e.g., a checksum or cyclic redundancy ...
Essays on Economic Dynamics
(2017-07-17)
The dissertation includes two sections, which apply dynamic economic models to study different economic issues.
The Section Two studies the optimal design of the Pacific Salmon Treaty, which was signed by the U.S. and ...
