  • Mood-dynamic playlist : interpolating a path of emotions using a KNN algorithm

    Creator:
    Gaur, Shaurya
    Abstract:
    Users curate music playlists based on emotion to focus or relax, so streaming services often create playlists of songs to aid this process. Prior research focuses on generating playlists of a single mood or genre, although a few studies work to construct automatic playlists that transition between the genres of...

  • Collaborative Metacognition and Decision Making in a Signal Detection Task

    Creator:
    Duncan-Reid, Jackson
    Abstract:
    When decision makers work collaboratively, their combined performance can exceed the performance of even the best group member working alone. However, despite the potential for performance gains when working in a group, collaborating individuals often show poor coordination and losses of motivation, and are generally inefficient at combining their resources...

  • The effect of acquisition and analysis automation failure in a low-fidelity multitasking system

    Creator:
    Secor, William R.
    Abstract:
    Research into the effect of automation on human multitasking performance is primarily focused on Decision Automation (a machine suggesting a certain course of action for a human operator to take) and Action Automation (a machine carrying out a certain course of action on behalf of the human operator) while Acquisition...

  • Network coding for sensor networks, distributed storage and video streaming

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Kien Trung
    Abstract:
    The classical store-and-forward routing has and will continue to be the most important routing architecture in many modern packet-switched communication networks. In a packet-switched network, data is sent in the form of discrete packets that traverse hop-by-hop from a source to a destination. At each intermediate hop, the router stores...

  • Throughput optimization for single-hop wireless networks using network coding

    Creator:
    Tran, Tuan Tho
    Abstract:
    Recent advances in wireless technologies have helped the proliferation of wireless devices, ranging from hand-held devices such as cellular phones to more powerful mobile computing platforms as such laptops [1]. Along with that, the end users’ applications running on these devices, ranging from text message to multimedia applications such as...

  • Initial state estimation for a gun launched projectile in a spatially varying magnetic field

    Creator:
    Chawla, Feni
    Abstract:
    Smart weapons promise to provide leap ahead capability with regard to accuracy and engagement range for medium and large caliber projectiles. One of the most critical components of a smart weapon system is its sensor suite that provides position, orientation, and velocity information as the projectile flies down range so...

  • Automation-Aided Collaborative Strategies in Signal Detection Tasks

    Creator:
    Duncan-Reid, Jackson
    Abstract:
    Automated systems have become increasingly important to human decision making and task performance in a wide variety of complex fields and situations. Decision aids, a specific form of automation, assist human operators in making complex decisions under conditions of uncertainty, such as air traffic control or combat identification. When humans...

  • Evaluation of Cycling Behavior: Factors that Influence Bicyclists’ Comprehension, Comfort, and Stress

    Creator:
    Cobb, Douglas P.
    Abstract:
    Travel demand has increased due to population growth, increase of vehicle ownership, and development patterns resulting in greater levels of congestion, pollution, and crash frequency. One approach to demand management is to increase the share of trips made by bicycles. With the increase in bicycling rates, there is a critical...

  • Large-Area Nanoplasmonic Structures for Enhanced Fluorescence-Based Biosensing

    Creator:
    Wang, Yi-Chieh
    Abstract:
    An innovative silver nano-dimple arrays (Ag DAs)-integrated microfluidic device was developed to achieve highly sensitive fluorescence-based nucleic acid detection. The Ag DAs were utilized to produce surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for strong fluorescence enhancement. We systematically investigated the plasmon-enhanced fluorescence by controlling the nanostructure dimension of the Ag DA substrate....

  • Investigating Differences between Rural and Non-rural Students

    Creator:
    Sinnott, Christian B.
    Abstract:
    Rural students have lagged behind non-rural students in matriculation into higher education, as well as in completion of four-year degrees. The current studies sought to investigate academic readiness, academic performance, and psychological differences between rural and non-rural students at Oregon State University. Rural and non-rural students were compared during spring...
