Occupied: The Civilian Experience In Montélimar, 1939-1945, Cameron Zinsou Apr 2021

Occupied: The Civilian Experience In Montélimar, 1939-1945, Cameron Zinsou

Theses and Dissertations

The vast literature of World War II in France contains a major gap. There is little on the daily life of civilians prior to France's defeat during the Battle of France or civilian life after the liberation of France from the German occupier. Most literature on France during the war focuses on the Vichy years from 1940-1944. This dissertation extends the timeline to encapsulate the whole war from 1939-1945. By doing so, historians can uncover other themes central to the French civilian experience besides the German presence. This dissertation shows the benefits of this chronological extension through its investigation of …


Using Spectral Graph Theory To Analyze Gene Expression Networks, Chuyen Nguyen Apr 2021

Using Spectral Graph Theory To Analyze Gene Expression Networks, Chuyen Nguyen

Honors Theses

This paper covers the potential applications of using the spectral analysis of a graph’s Laplacian matrix to gene co-expression networks. The general idea is to take publically available genetic data from cancer studies, organize them into gene co-expression networks, and analyze them using Spectral Graph theory. The publically available cancer study data includes files that show the occurrence of several different genes within a single person’s genetic data (given by fragments per kilobase million). The research takes the data of several patients and organizes them into a table. From there, each gene’s occurrence is measured against every other gene’s occurrence …


The Narrative Of Salvation And Ritual Re-Presentation In Piers Plowman, Dylan Bufkin Apr 2021

The Narrative Of Salvation And Ritual Re-Presentation In Piers Plowman, Dylan Bufkin

Honors Theses

Scholarship on Piers Plowman has consistently overlooked the rich depth of meaning concerning the Eucharist that Langland provides in the final few passus. The poem examines a broad view of salvation history that encompasses the Abrahamic, Mosaic, and the advent of Christ and the Church while simultaneously presenting the narrative of one’s personal salvation that runs parallel with the discussions of literal salvation history. Both of these narratives, historical and personal, culminate in the poem with Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, which is re-presented at every Mass by Christ’s Eucharistic presence. Within the text, Piers acts as an evolving allegory …


Image Denoising Methods Based On Partial Differential Equations And Non-Local Means Filter, Ben Spencer Apr 2021

Image Denoising Methods Based On Partial Differential Equations And Non-Local Means Filter, Ben Spencer

Honors Theses

Images occur in many forms in our daily lives, and denoising is one of the most important steps of image analysis in improving the quality of images. It is also used as a preprocessing for other imaging techniques such as feature segmentation and compression. One of the most fundamental mathematical techniques among the various image denoising methods developed for the last two to three decades is using nonlinear partial differential equations from energy minimization. These partial differential equations based methods use the minimizing functional to numerically find the solution. The filtering-based methods using smoothing operators have also been used for …


Examining The Role Of Wnt Signaling In Vascular Calcification, Kaylee Bundy Apr 2021

Examining The Role Of Wnt Signaling In Vascular Calcification, Kaylee Bundy

Honors Theses

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a worldwide epidemic. As the leading cause of death across the world, many researchers are working to better understand the causes and mechanisms resulting in the disease [1]. One of the predictors of and contributors to cardiovascular mortalities is vascular calcification, the buildup of hydroxyapatite deposits within the arterial wall. The mineral deposition can occur in either the intimal or medial layers of the arteries; the location depends upon the causative factors and can create different effects within the body [2]. Conditions conductive of calcification include but are not limited to hypercalcaemia, hyperphosphatemia, and mechanical stress …


Measuring Immigrant Integration In The United States South, Ashton Porter Apr 2021

Measuring Immigrant Integration In The United States South, Ashton Porter

Honors Theses

This study examines the integration success of immigrants in the U.S. South. The design of this study establishes six indicators of integration: employment, education, political engagement, health, housing, and language. In the discussion, each section establishes the indicator’s measurement technique, its relevance to integration, and its relationship with other indicators. The proposed measure is a point-based survey which correlates to a hexagonal spider graph as an overall index of integration success. The survey is recommended for individual administration to compare cases and determine change across time of immigrants as they integrate into the U.S. South. Integration is viewed as the …
