Multi-Objective Optimization in Multiagent Systems

Creator:: Yliniemi, Logan Michael
Abstract:: Cooperative multiagent systems are used as solution concepts in many application domains including air traffic control, satellite communications, and extra planetary exploration. As systems become more distributed and complex, we observe three phenomena. First, these systems cannot be accurately modeled, rendering traditional model based control methods inadequate. Second, system parameters...

The late holocene atmospheric methane budget reconstructed from ice cores

Creator:: Mitchell, Logan E.
Abstract:: Ice cores are considered the gold standard for recording past climate and biogeochemical changes. However, gas records derived from ice core analysis have until now been largely limited to centennial and longer timescales because sufficient temporal resolution and analytical precision have been lacking, except during rare times when atmospheric concentrations...

Structural studies of the antioxidant defense enzymes; copper, zinc superoxide dismutase and alkyl hydroperoxide reductase flavoprotein

Creator:: Roberts, Blaine R.
Abstract:: Oxygen derived radicals are involved in many aspects of life from aging and cell signaling to disease states as diverse as heart disease, diabetes, neurodegeneration and inflammation. Therefore, understanding the function of antioxidant defense proteins and the effects of oxygen derived radicals on protein function is essential to elucidate the...

Essays on behavioral economics

Creator:: Cao, Zheng
Abstract:: This dissertation consists of two essays that address behavioral economics issues. In first chapter we analyze the effects of psychological pressure on performance using National Basketball Association (NBA) free throw data from the 2002-2003 through 2009-2010 seasons. We find evidence that players choke under pressure – they shoot on average...

Target Value Uncertainty and Goodwill Impairment: Public & Private Targets

Creator:: Mikus, Brad
Abstract:: In this study, I investigate how target value uncertainty may lead to acquirer mispricing of an acquisition target and how the mispricing may be a determinant of goodwill impairment. To the extent the mispricing leads to both high and low industry-adjusted purchase price multiples (PPMs are my proxies for overpayment...

Physical Activity Promotion for Emerging Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Transitioning from High School into the Community: A Virtual Intervention Grounded in Self-Determination Theory

Creator:: Raja Vora, Joseline
Abstract:: People with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) engage in lesser physical activity (PA) and more time in sedentary activities as compared to those without disabilities. A subset of people with IDD who are most vulnerable to develop habits detrimental to health is the emerging adults who are transitioning from adolescence...

Towards a Better Understanding of How the Dietary Supplement Xanthohumol Can Improve Health

Creator:: Logan, Isabelle E.
Abstract:: Xanthohumol, a prenylated flavonoid found in hops and beer, possesses a long-standing reputation to improve health. Xanthohumol’s cytotoxicity to a wide variety of cancer cell lines is well-established. Herein we provide further insight into the cytotoxicity of not only xanthohumol, but also its non-estrogenic derivatives, to a number of colonic...

Symbiosis in the Pacific Ring of Fire : evolutionary-biology of Rhizopogon subgenus Villosuli as mutualists of Pseudotsuga

Creator:: Mujic, Alija Bajro
Abstract:: Rhizopogon is a large genus of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi that grows in association with host trees of the family Pinaceae. We have conducted a series of studies investigating the ecology and evolutionary biology of the EM symbiosis shared between R. subgenus Villosuli and trees of the genus Pseudotsuga. Two members...

Measuring protein metal binding via mass spectrometry : copper, zinc superoxide dismutase and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Creator:: Rhoads, Timothy W.
Abstract:: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating disease characterized by the progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Dominantly-inherited mutations to the antioxidant enzyme Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) cause 3-6% of all ALS cases. The complete mechanism behind the toxicity of mutant SOD1 remains unclear, although significant evidence points to aberrant or...
