Given: F(A Great Love + A Missing Body), Emily Anne Barnes
Given: F(A Great Love + A Missing Body), Emily Anne Barnes
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Given: f(A great love + A missing body) is a collection of poems in four sections that takes love and mathematics at its core. The lyric and narrative poems navigate an affair between a female narrator and her lover. The math is positioned with the verse in the way an ekphrastic poem might be positioned next to the art upon which it is based. The connection and alienation of the form fractures the poem, but it also serves as a metaphor for the competing forces of two people in love. And the goal of each is pursuit of the sublime. …
Identifying Dysfunction In Persistent Social Deviance: Perspective Taking As A Mediator Of The Relationship Between Psychopathy And Social Aggression, Olga Vadymovna Berkout
Identifying Dysfunction In Persistent Social Deviance: Perspective Taking As A Mediator Of The Relationship Between Psychopathy And Social Aggression, Olga Vadymovna Berkout
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Psychopathy has been associated with social aggression in a number of studies. Perspective taking (e.g. theory of mind and empathy) has been inversely associated with both psychopathy and social aggression, suggesting that it may serve as a potential mediator of this relationship. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to assess perspective taking as a potential partial mediator of the relationship between psychopathy and social aggression in a sample of 439 undergraduates. Although bivariate correlations produced the expected negative relationships between perspective taking and psychopathy and social aggression, perspective taking did not function as a mediator in the SEM analysis. Implications …
An Analysis Of Down Syndrome Children And The Importance Of Their Cognitive And Communicative Development, Maria Elisa Campana
An Analysis Of Down Syndrome Children And The Importance Of Their Cognitive And Communicative Development, Maria Elisa Campana
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This paper will look at the issues of cognitive and communication development in children with Down Syndrome. With recent advances in neuroscience, educators need to understand brain development in order to utilize methods in dealing with education problems that occur with this population. Therefore this paper will look at the Down Syndrome child in both a physiological and educational context, to better understand appropriate methods of intervention. Moreover, brain development and learning involves not only genetic content specific to each individual, but also the many paths laid out by the family, environment, social and educational needs. As they move through …
On K-Trees And Special Classes Of K-Trees, John Wheless Estes
On K-Trees And Special Classes Of K-Trees, John Wheless Estes
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The class of k-trees is defined recursively as follows: the smallest k-tree is the k-clique. If G is a graph obtained by attaching a vertex v to a k-clique in a k-tree, then G is also a k-tree. Trees, connected acyclic graphs, are k-trees for k = 1. We introduce a new parameter known as the shell of a k-tree, and from the shell special subclasses of k-trees, tree-like k-trees, are classified. Tree-like k-trees are generalizations of paths, maximal outerplanar graphs, and chordal planar graphs with toughness exceeding one. Let fs = fs( G) be the number of independent sets …
Standoff Laser Interferometric Photoacoustic Spectroscopy For The Detection Of Explosives, Logan Marcus
Standoff Laser Interferometric Photoacoustic Spectroscopy For The Detection Of Explosives, Logan Marcus
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
There will unfortunately always be a pressing need to detect and identify explosive materials. Performing detection at a standoff distance is much safer and this is the impetus for this work. Photoacoustic spectroscopy is well suited to the task of explosive detection at a standoff distance. A detailed theory of the standoff measurement of the physical response of a system to photoacoustic excitation with an interferometric sensor has been constructed and tested. The use of this methodology to measure the standoff photoacoustic spectrum of TNT with an interferometric sensor has clearly been demonstrated. This methodology and the tested theory can …
An Ssvep Brain-Computer Interface: A Machine Learning Approach, Fei Teng
An Ssvep Brain-Computer Interface: A Machine Learning Approach, Fei Teng
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) provides a bidirectional communication path for a human to control an external device using brain signals. Among neurophysiological features in BCI systems, steady state visually evoked potentials (SSVEP), natural responses to visual stimulation at specific frequencies, has increasingly drawn attentions because of its high temporal resolution and minimal user training, which are two important parameters in evaluating a BCI system. The performance of a BCI can be improved by a properly selected neurophysiological signal, or by the introduction of machine learning techniques. With the help of machine learning methods, a BCI system can adapt to the …
The Legendre Transform Of The Holst Action, Caixia Gao
The Legendre Transform Of The Holst Action, Caixia Gao
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
I start with a short introduction on 3+1 ADM form and the tetrad form of General Relativity, then I review the Legendre transform of the Einstein-Hilbert action and the Palatini action. The Holst action is a generalization of the Palatini action by including a topological term. I derive Ashtekar's connection form directly from this action by doing the Legendre transformation rather than by a canonical transformation in the usual phase space. This is done in both Remmanian signature with half-flat connection and Lorentz signature with general Barbero-Immirzi parameter.
Functional Morphology Of The Sphyrnid Shark Cephalofoil: An Assessment Of The Hydrodynamic Lift Hypothesis Using Computational Fluid Dynamics, Matthew K. Gaylord
Functional Morphology Of The Sphyrnid Shark Cephalofoil: An Assessment Of The Hydrodynamic Lift Hypothesis Using Computational Fluid Dynamics, Matthew K. Gaylord
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The hammerhead sharks (Family: Sphyrnidae) are all characterized by a conspicuous lateral expansion and dorsoventral flattening of the head forming a structure known as a cephalofoil, however, there is substantial morphological variation within the clade. Many theories have been proposed regarding the functional aspects of this structure. One of these is that it may produce beneficial dynamic lift as the shark swims (in similar fashion to the cambered wings found on many modern-day aircraft). As sharks do not possess a swim bladder, part of their energy intake is expended on simply maintaining vertical station in the water column. If indeed …
The Impact Of The User-It Artifact Interaction On Technology Implementation And Value: Mobile Social Networking And Mobile Social Capital, Donghyun Kim
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Despite investment and cutting-edge features, the majority of new mobile phone subscribers have adopted low-cost handsets instead of the latest mobile devices (Karjaluoto et al., 2005). According to the U.S. Census Bureau report, only 37% of cell phone users selected a smartphone in 2007. The Census Bureau forecasted the figure would increase by less than 10% in 2008. However, only 24% of cell phone users owned a smartphone in 2010, 27 % in 2011 and 30% in 2012. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose a conceptual model of the impact of mobile social capital on mobile networks …
Multi-Configurational Investigation Of Thermolytic Pathways Of Highly Strained Ring Systems, Jeffrey Dwayne Veals
Multi-Configurational Investigation Of Thermolytic Pathways Of Highly Strained Ring Systems, Jeffrey Dwayne Veals
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The isomerization pathways of model high energy structures are of interest because of their relation to high energy density fuels. Electron resonance has been found to greatly affect the relative activation barriers for several isomerization pathways, and the major goal of this research is to accurately describe its role in determining the relative barriers for strain energy release pathways. This research is centered around the potential energy surfaces (PES's) for ? bond breaking and ? bond rotation in these highly strained structures. Of particular interest was how would resonance and or electronegativity affect the allowed/disallonature of the activation barriers in …
Stochastic Models For Evolutionary Genetic Problems, Wei Liao
Stochastic Models For Evolutionary Genetic Problems, Wei Liao
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Two stochastic models are designed for answering evolutionary genetic problems. The first study shows that inbreeding-environment interactions increase extinction risk. The second research demonstrates that 1) the carrying capacity and initial population growth rate is critical to determine the population persistence time; 2) increasing the advantageous mutation rate reduces the extinction risk although its effects are usually shadoby population size and fitness; 3) the new mutation correlation among environments rises during the evolution process, but it has compromised effects on population fate. Being able to accurately estimate the persistence time of populations of endangered plants and animals is central to …

Multidoman Piezo-Ceramic Cantilever, David Paul Sedorook
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
PZT-5H is a ferroelectric and piezoelectric material that has many applications that are the subjects of current research. As a ferroelectric, PZT-5H has a permanent electrical polarization that arises from ferroelectric domains. In this thesis, numerical simulations were conducted via the well know Finite Element Method of several types of piezoelectric cantilevers that were made of PIC-181, a high quality PZT-5H made in Germany. Single crystal cantilever models with multiple polarization vectors were investigated with Q factors ranging from Q = 50 to Q = 1200, where the acoustical displacements were calculated. Further, the displacements were calculated for a multidomain …

Evaluate Agreement Of Differential Expression For Translational Cross-Species Genomics, Cuilan Gao
Evaluate Agreement Of Differential Expression For Translational Cross-Species Genomics, Cuilan Gao
Probability & Statistics Seminar
An important problem in translational genomics is to evaluate the fidelity of an animal model of a human disease. We developed the agreement of differential expression (AGDEX) procedure to evaluate the agreement of the results of a differential expression experiment using mouse with those of a similar experiment using humans. AGDEX uses an agreement statistic to measure the similarity of expression differences for pre-defined sets of ortholog-matched genes. Significance is determined by permutation. In two pediatric cancer genomics studies, AGDEX was used to determine that a brain tumor in a mouse model showed a similar gene expression profile to that …

Statistical Analysis Of Curve Fitting In Errors-In-Variables Models, Ali Al-Sharadqah
Statistical Analysis Of Curve Fitting In Errors-In-Variables Models, Ali Al-Sharadqah
Analysis Seminar
Fitting geometric curves such as lines, circles, and ellipses to data is a fundamental task in computer vision, image processing, and pattern recognition. These problems are classified as Errors-in-Variables models (EIV), where both coordinates of observations are subject to noise, making them more challenging than classical regression. This talk explores statistical methods to assess EIV parameter estimators, comparing geometric and algebraic fits for circles and ellipses. We present new estimators with superior accuracy and bias reduction.

Orbit Uncertainty Propagation Using Sparse Grid-Based Method, Yang Cheng
Orbit Uncertainty Propagation Using Sparse Grid-Based Method, Yang Cheng
Probability & Statistics Seminar
Tracking resident space objects (RSOs) has gained much attention in recent years because of the hazard posed by inactive RSOs to active RSOs. One challenge for RSO tracking is orbit uncertainty propagation. Owing to the sparsity of the available tracking sensor data and the nonlinearity of the orbital dynamics, the uncertainty of the orbit of an RSO is highly nonGaussian after long-term propagation. The state-of-the-art methods for non-Gaussian uncertainty propagation include the Gaussian mixture method that approximates the non-Gaussian probability density function (pdf) by a mixture of Gaussian pdfs and the state transition tensor- and generalized Polynomial Chaos-based method that …
Local Linear Regression With Censored Data, Meng Zhao
Local Linear Regression With Censored Data, Meng Zhao
Probability & Statistics Seminar
We propose a self-consistency based method to conduct local linear estimation of mean functions for general regression models with censored data. Self-consistent estimation techniques are frequently used to obtain consistent estimation of survival functions when data are censored. Such techniques have also been proven useful for estimation of linear regression parameters in censored setting. We extend such methods to local linear estimation of the regression functions for nonparametric models. The bandwidth will be selected adaptively according to the data. Simulation studies are conducted. Some basic asymptotic results are also obtained. *This work was done jointly with Dr. K. Kulasekera, Clemson …
