Accelerating Multiparametric Mri For Adaptive Radiotherapy, Shraddha Pandey
Accelerating Multiparametric Mri For Adaptive Radiotherapy, Shraddha Pandey
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
MR guided Radiotherapy (MRgRT) marks an important paradigm shift in the field of radiotherapy. Superior tissue contrast of MRI offers better visualization of the abnormal lesions, as a result precise radiation dose delivery is possible. In case of online treatment planning, MRgRT offers better control of intratumoral motion and quick adaptation to changes in the gross tumor volume. Nonetheless, the MRgRT process flow does suffer from some challenges that limit its clinical usability. The primary aspects of MRgRT workflow are MRI acquisition, tumor delineation, dose map prediction and administering treatment. It is estimated that the acquisition of MRI takes around …
Boundary Behavior Of Analytic Functions And Approximation Theory, Spyros Pasias
Boundary Behavior Of Analytic Functions And Approximation Theory, Spyros Pasias
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
In this Thesis we deal with problems regarding boundary behavior of analytic functions and approximation theory. We will begin by characterizing the set in which Blaschke products fail to have radial limits but have unrestricted limits on its complement. We will then proceed and solve several cases of an open problem posed in \cite{Da}. The goal of the problem is to unify two known theorems to create a stronger theorem; in particular we want to find necessary and sufficient conditions on sets $E_1\subset E_2$ of the unit circle such that there exists a bounded analytic function that fails to have …
Data-Driven Analytical Predictive Modeling For Pancreatic Cancer, Financial & Social Systems, Aditya Chakraborty
Data-Driven Analytical Predictive Modeling For Pancreatic Cancer, Financial & Social Systems, Aditya Chakraborty
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most deathly disease and becoming an increasingly commoncause of cancer mortality. It continues giving rise to massive challenges to clinicians and cancer researchers. The combined five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is extremely low, about 5 to 10 percent, owing to the fact that a large number of the patients are diagnosed at stage IV when the disease has metastasized. Our study investigates if there exists any statistical significant difference between the median survival times and also the survival probabilities of male and female pancreatic cancer patients at different cancer stages, and irrespective of …
On Simultaneous Similarity Of D-Tuples Of Commuting Square Matrices, Corey Connelly
On Simultaneous Similarity Of D-Tuples Of Commuting Square Matrices, Corey Connelly
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
It has been shown by B. Shekhtman that when any d-tuple A of pairwise commuting N × N matrices with complex entries is cyclic, then A is simultaneously similar to the d-tuple of commuting N × N matrices B if and only if B is cyclic, and the sets of polynomials in d variables which annihilate A and B are equivalent.
This thesis offers a further generalization of this result, demonstrating the necessary and sufficient conditions for the simultaneous similarity of n-cyclic d-tuples of commuting square complex-valued matrices.
A Functional Optimization Approach To Stochastic Process Sampling, Ryan Matthew Thurman
A Functional Optimization Approach To Stochastic Process Sampling, Ryan Matthew Thurman
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
The goal of the current research project is the formulation of a method for the estimation and modeling of additive stochastic processes with both linear- and cycle-type trend components as well as a relatively robust noise component in the form of Levy processes. Most of the research in stochastic processes tends to focus on cases where the process is stationary, a condition that cannot be assumed for the model above due to the presence of the cyclical sub-component in the overall additive process. As such, we outline a number of relevant theoretical and applied topics, such as stochastic processes and …
Stability Analysis Of Delay-Driven Coupled Cantilevers Using The Lambert W-Function, Daniel Siebel-Cortopassi
Stability Analysis Of Delay-Driven Coupled Cantilevers Using The Lambert W-Function, Daniel Siebel-Cortopassi
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
A coupled delay-feedback system of two cantilevers can yield greater sensitivity than that of asingle cantilever system, with potential applications in atomic force microscopy. The Lambert W-function analysis concept for delay differential equations is used to more accurately model the behavior of specific configurations of these cantilever systems. We also use this analysis concept to find parameters which yield stability for greater parameter ranges, of the delay differential equations. The Q factor, or quality factor, is the ratio of energy stored in the system, to the energy lost per fixed oscillation/movement cycle. Having stability of the cantilevers corresponds to the …
Advances And Applications Of Optimal Polynomial Approximants, Raymond Centner
Advances And Applications Of Optimal Polynomial Approximants, Raymond Centner
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
The history of optimal polynomial approximants (OPAs) dates back to the engineering literature of the 1970s. Here, these polynomials were studied in the context of the Hardy space H^2(X), where X denotes the open unit disk D or the bidisk D^2. Under certain conditions, it was thought that these polynomials had all of their zeros outside the closure of X. Hence, it was suggested that these polynomials could be used to design a stable digital filter. In recent mathematics literature, OPAs have been studied in many different function spaces. In these settings, numerous papers have been devoted to studying the …
Symbolic Computation Of Lump Solutions To A Combined (2+1)-Dimensional Nonlinear Evolution Equation, Jingwei He
Symbolic Computation Of Lump Solutions To A Combined (2+1)-Dimensional Nonlinear Evolution Equation, Jingwei He
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This thesis aims to consider a (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation and its lump solutions. Byusing symbolic computation, two classes of lump solutions are presented. And for two specific chosen examples, we will show three-dimensional plots and density plots to exhibit dynamical features of the lump solution, which are made by Maple plot tools.
