Real-Time Automated Weld Quality Analysis From Ultrasonic B-Scan Using Deep Learning, Zarreen Naowal Reza

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Resistance spot welding is a widely used process for joining metals using electrically generated heat or Joule heating. It is one of the most commonly used techniques in automotive industry to weld sheet metals in order to form a car body. Although, industrial robots are used as automated spot welders in massive scale in the industries, the weld quality inspection process still requires human involvement to decide if a weld should be passed as acceptable or not. Not only it is a tedious and error- prone job, but also it costs industries lots of time and money. Therefore, making this …


Computational Drug Repurposing For Breast Cancer Subtypes, Roopesh Dhara Jan 2019

Computational Drug Repurposing For Breast Cancer Subtypes, Roopesh Dhara

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Breast cancer makes up 25 percent of all new cancer diagnoses globally according to the American Cancer Society(ACS). Developing a highly effective drug can be a time consuming and an expensive ordeal. Drug repurposing is a tremendous approach which takes away some disadvantages of traditional drug development procedures making it both time and cost effective. In this thesis, we are interested in finding good drugs for each of the ten subtypes of breast cancer. Repurposing incorporates identifying unique indications of pre-approved drugs and utilizing them to observe the anti-correlation between the perturbation data and disease data. If anti-correlation, whether it …
