  • Comparative Transcriptomics in Stress-Induced Rice

    Creator:
    Al-Bader, Noor M.
    Abstract:
    Rice is an important crop that feeds almost half the world population. As climate change models predict floods, drought and extreme temperatures in rice production areas, the need to better understand the genetic basis of adaptation and tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses is vital to sustain our food supply....

  • Statistical analysis of RNA sequencing count data

    Creator:
    Mi, Gu
    Abstract:
    RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) has rapidly become the de facto technique in transcriptome studies. However, established statistical methods for analyzing experimental and observational microarray studies need to be revised or completely re-invented to accommodate RNA-Seq data's unique characteristics. In this dissertation, we focus on statistical analyses performed at two particular stages in...

  • Multi-instance multi-label learning : algorithms and applications to bird bioacoustics

    Creator:
    Briggs, Forrest
    Abstract:
    We consider the problem of supervised classification of bird species from audio recordings in a real-world acoustic monitoring scenario (i.e. audio data is collected in the field with an omnidirectional microphone, without human supervision). Obtaining better data about bird activity can assist conservation efforts, and improve our understanding of their...

  • Factors that affect a school district's ability to successfully implement the use of data warehouse applications in the data driven decision making process

    Creator:
    DeLoach, Robin
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to explore the factors that influence the ability of teachers and administrators to use data obtained from a data warehouse to inform instruction. The mixed methods study was guided by the following questions: 1) What data warehouse application features affect the ability of an...

  • Signatures in the Subsurface - Big & Small Data Approaches for the Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Geologic Properties & Uncertainty Reduction

    Creator:
    Rose, Kelly Kathleen
    Abstract:
    Despite more than two centuries of exploration, including more than six million deep wellbores with depths exceeding 40,000 feet in some parts of the world, our ability to constrain subsurface processes and properties remains limited. Characteristics of the subsurface vary and can be analyzed on a variety of spatial scales....

  • Variational Typing and Its Applications

    Creator:
    Chen, Sheng
    Abstract:
    The study of variational typing originated from the problem of type inference for variational programs, which encode numerous different but related plain programs. In this dissertation, I present a sound and complete type inference algorithm for inferring types of all plain programs encoded in variational programs. The proposed algorithm runs...

  • Investigating Protein-lipid-membrane Interactions in Plant Cells using Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation

    Creator:
    Tao, Kai
    Abstract:
    The overall focus of this thesis is on the distribution of specific lipids and membrane proteins of the external and internal membranes of plant cells, in the context of the roles that those lipids and proteins may play in microbe-plant interactions. The work includes the development of several new tools,...

  • Addressing Data Resolution in Precision Agriculture

    Creator:
    Kelley, Jason
    Abstract:
    Irrigated agriculture constitutes the greatest consumptive water use globally, so that irrigation efficiency measures are an important part of global efforts to best utilize this limited resource. However, greater irrigation efficiency must be achieved while simultaneously maintaining or increasing crop yields and farming profitability. Incremental water use decisions are made...

  • Optimal load and resource balance in internet distributed systems

    Creator:
    Nishida, Hiroshi
    Abstract:
    A distributed system is a network of multiple autonomous computational nodes designed primarily for performance scalability and robustness. The performance of a distributed system depends critically on how tasks and resources are distributed among the nodes. Thus, a main thrust in distributed system research is to design schemes for distributing...

    Abstract:
    As the power system grows larger and more complex, real-time monitoring and control become very significant in order to achieve reliable operation of the power system. Before any security assessment can be made or control actions are taken, the reliable estimate of the existing state of the system must be...
