Computational Analyses Of The Uptake And Distribution Of Carbon Monoxide (Co) In Human Subjects, Kinnera Chada
Computational Analyses Of The Uptake And Distribution Of Carbon Monoxide (Co) In Human Subjects, Kinnera Chada
University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that binds to hemoglobin with high affinity. This property underlies the use of low doses of CO to determine hemoglobin mass (MHb) in the fields of clinical and sports medicine. However, hemoglobin bound to CO is unable to transport oxygen and exposure to high CO concentrations is a significant environmental and occupational health concern. These contrasting aspects of CO—clinically useful in low doses but potentially lethal in higher doses—mandates a need for a quantitative understanding of the temporal profiles of the uptake and distribution of CO …

Theses Digitization Project
The purpose of this thesis is to describe an algorithm and implement a software system based upon facial expression recognition that will accurately determine the specific need of a handicapped individual pertaining to the eating process. Then based upon that need, determine the appropriate action that should be executed. This thesis aims to present a solution to allow a special needs individual to eat more efficienty and foster independence, while providing a platform for further research in the area of feature detection to assist individuals with special needs.
