Comparing Accuracy and Time Complexity of Machine Learning Algorithms for Eye Gesture Recognition
(2018-05-15)
The eye motion data can be utilized to perform behavior analysis and improve common applications, such as accessible HCI, interactive interface, marketing, and remote-controlling. This research project compares accuracy ...
Structure-Based Drug Discovery Against the Caseinolytic Protease From Mycobacterium tuberculosis
(2018-05-02)
Antibacterial drug resistance is a major factor in the increasing rate of failure to successfully treat diseases such as tuberculosis (TB). The World Health Organization estimates that in 2015 a total of 10.4 million new ...
The Effects of Sex on Spinal Cord Injury Recovery Following Noxious Input
(2018-04-19)
Spinal cord injuries (SCI) are often the result of traumatic accidents resulting in polytrauma. Pain input from associated injuries has been shown to negatively impair locomotor recovery and foster the development of ...
A Genetic Screen for High-Copy Suppressors of the Growth Defect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae set1 Null Mutants Under Histidine Starvation Conditions
(2018-04-19)
Previous research indicates that Set1 is the catalytically active protein in COMPASS, a protein methyltransferase complex associated with transcription in budding yeast cells. However, the mechanistic role that Set1 and ...
The Effects of Genetic Information on Feelings of Authenticity
(2019-04-23)
While previous research has focused on the effects of genetic information on behavior and perceptions of phenotypes, this research examines the subjective experiences associated with believing that one’s behavior is ...
Future Time Perspective and Goal Setting Among College Students: A Measurement for the Dimensions of Future Time Perspective
(2019-04-26)
The perceptions of the future, including attitudes, beliefs, and actions toward it, have been formalized into a construct known as Future Time Perspective (FTP). The purpose of this study was to determine if college students’ ...
Recognizing Seatbelt-Fastening Activity Using Wearable Sensor Technology
(2017-04-27)
Many fatal car accidents involve victims who were not wearing a seatbelt, even though systems for detecting such behavior and intervening to correct it already exist. Activity recognition using wearable sensors has been ...
A Shift in the Lysis Paradigm: How Phage PhiKT Breaks Free
(2018-05-03)
Spanins are required for the last step in bacteriophage lysis: the disruption of the outer membrane. However, bioinformatic analysis has shown 15 percent of phages lack a spanin gene, which suggests an alternate mechanism ...
Virus-Host Interactions Within Galveston Bay, Texas
(2018-04-30)
Viruses are among the most abundant biological entities in the world, numbering approximately 4x1030 in the ocean alone. Despite the inherent importance of viruses, aspects of host preferences and specificity within the ...
The War on Dissent: Legal Repression in the Civil Rights Era
(2018-04-25)
Beginning in the 1960s, concerns about rising crime rates, urban rebellions, and political demonstrations across the United States prompted a shift toward “law and order” for many Americans. Over the following decades, ...
