  • Weak-supervision Time-series Analysis

    Creator:
    You, Zeyu
    Abstract:
    Efficient time-series analysis can impact multiple application domains such as motif discovery in gene analysis or music data, extracting spectro-temporal patterns in acoustic scene analysis, or annotating and classifying electrical bio-signals (such as ECG, EEG, and EMG) for medical applications. Time-series analysis involves a variety of tasks. To predict future...

  • Estimation of the order of an autoregressive time series : a Bayesian approach

    Creator:
    Robb, Loretta J.
    Abstract:
    Finite order autoregressive models for time series are often used for prediction and other inferences. Given the order of the model, the parameters of the models can be estimated by least squares, maximum likelihood, or the Yule-Walker method. The basic problem is estimating the order of the model. A number...

  • Performance evaluation and design of multiple time series based forecasting systems

    Creator:
    Chen, Kuei-Lin
    Abstract:
    The study evaluates performances of three multiple time series (MTS) forecasting methods; investigates possible improvements in MTS forecasting operations, and proposes a multiple time series based forecasting system. Time series considered are finite, linear, covariance stationary, and discrete. Specific objectives for the thesis were: (a) conducting comparative studies of MTS...

  • Bilinear stochastic processes and time series

    Creator:
    Tang, Zhigiang
    Abstract:
    In engineering, biology, ecology, medicine, economics and social science, some processes are essentially bilinear, and some could be approximated accurately by bilinear processes under certain conditions. In this thesis the bilinear stochastic process and bilinear time series are discussed. Bilinear models essentially are nonlinear; the superposition rule is not valid....

  • Adult 4-H volunteer empowerment in 4-H youth development settings

    Creator:
    Olsen, Pamela
    Abstract:
    The primary purpose of this study was to determine which factors related to adult 4-H volunteer empowerment in 4-H youth development settings. This study examined the relationship of adult 4-H volunteers’ perceived leadership styles of Oregon 4-H Youth Development Educators (YDE) to the adult 4-H volunteer sense of empowerment. In...

    Creator:
    Klangwang, Jetjaroen
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we begin by presenting the result of F. K. C. Rankin and Swinnerton-Dyer on the location of the zeros of the Eisenstein series for the full modular group in the standard fundamental domain. Their simple but beautiful argument shows that all zeros are located on the lower...

    Lambrecht, Keith W.
    Abstract:
    The primary focus of this study was to determine the competencies required to manage an athletic club. Also, the intention was to determine if differences existed in required competencies between managing varying sizes of clubs: namely, mini, maxi, and super; and to identify course content areas for purposes of developing...
