  • An enhanced version of Caesar supporting 45° geometries

    Creator:
    Lanfri, Ann R.
    Abstract:
    Caesar is an interactive graphic editor that is used to generate layouts for VLSI circuits. It runs on a VAX-11 /780 under the UNIX operating system with Berkeley extensions. Caesar has a unique and simple user interface. Phled is an enhanced version of Caesar that runs on a M68000-based engineering...

  • A generalization of tree automata and its relation to matrix grammars

    Creator:
    Vomocil, David Leo
    Abstract:
    In this thesis we introduce alpha and beta tree acceptors, generalizations of tree automata. The alpha tree acceptors recognize a tree by final symbol and the beta tree acceptors by final state. We show that alpha and beta tree acceptors recognize the same sets of Gorn trees and demonstrate that...

  • The role of documentation in program modification tasks

    Creator:
    Tolman, David M.
    Abstract:
    This paper reports the findings of two studies conducted at Oregon State University. The first set of studies compares use of header comments versus mnemonic procedure and function names by programmers performing tasks relating to modification tasks. The second study compares the use of header comments versus in-line comments when...

  • Position-Dependent Codon Usage Bias in the Human Transcriptome

    Creator:
    Subramanian, Kaavya
    Abstract:
    All life depends on the reliable translation of RNA to protein according to complex interactions between translation machinery and RNA sequence features. While ribosomal occupancy and codon frequencies vary across coding regions, well-established metrics for computing coding potential of RNA do not capture such positional dependence. Here, we investigate position-dependent...

  • Computational Approaches for RNA Structure Prediction with Dynamic Programming and Deep Neural Networks

    Creator:
    Deng, Dezhong
    Abstract:
    Our goal is to build a system to model the RNA sequences that reveals their structural information by using efficient dynamic programming algorithms and deep learning approaches. We aim to 1) achieve linear-time for RNA secondary structure prediction based on existing minimum free energy models; 2) utilize deep neural networks...

  • Determining free energies of hard sphere fluids via Monte Carlo simulation

    Creator:
    Valeskea, Austin
    Abstract:
    Free energy is a fundamental property of a thermodynamic system, from which pressure, entropy, and other interesting properties can be derived. It is useful, then, to be able to accurately compute the free energy at various densities and temperatures in a way that can serve as the basis for further...

  • New Strategies to Develop Hidden Markov Models Combining KEGG and Pfam

    Creator:
    Gupta, Sonica
    Abstract:
    Profile Hidden Markov Models utilize the information stored in a multiple sequence alignment such as its residues and conserved regions to assign probabilities at each column. This indicates areas in the sequences where similar functionality is observed. These probability weights are then combined to assign a sequence score, which is...

  • Tracing the Pacific Islander Diaspora in the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Yarbrough, Nicole
    Abstract:
    The Pacific Islander diaspora in the Pacific Northwest United States is a unique community characterized by diverse cultures, experiences, and motivations for migration. This study aimed to explore the narratives of individuals from different Pacific Islander backgrounds residing in Oregon, shedding light on their reasons for migration and the impact...

  • Machine Learning Methods for the Discovery and Analysis of MicroRNAs

    Creator:
    Bell, Jimmy D.
    Abstract:
    MicroRNAs are a highly conserved class of small endogenous RNA, about ~22nt in length, involved in post-transcriptional gene silencing and have prominent roles in disease and development. Though the process of microRNA discovery was once an arduous task, the advent of high throughput sequencing technology has resulted in novel microRNAs...
