  • Studies on effect of stabilizers, chelators and inherent periodicity on nanoparticle antioxidant activity

    Creator:
    Zhou, Zheng
    Abstract:
    The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is tightly regulated in biological systems as overproduction can lead to oxidative stress and result in a number of diseases. Due to its negative effects, antioxidants are studied and used against ROS in medicine, pharmaceuticals and therapeutics. Because of issues with the uptake...

  • Behaviors and strategies in end-users' collaborative programming

    Creator:
    Liu, Zheng
    Abstract:
    Traditionally, research into end-user programming has focused on how to make programming more accessible to end users conducting the programming activities all by themselves. However, few researchers have considered introducing the concept of collaborative programming into the area of end-user programming, and how the programming environments and devices should be...

  • Predicting activity type from accelerometer data

    Creator:
    Zheng, Yonglei
    Abstract:
    The study of physical activity is important in improving people’s health as it can help people understand the relationship between physical activity and health. Accelerometers, due to its small size, low cost, convenience and its ability to provide objective information about the frequency, intensity, and duration of physical activity, has...

  • Estimation of the setup accuracy of a surface image-guided stereotactic positioning system

    Creator:
    Meng, Lu Zheng
    Abstract:
    Purpose: Stereotactic radiation therapy and stereotactic radiosurgery deliver radiation precisely to tumors, using special equipment to position and demobilize patients. The VisionRT system, with its component AlignRT, is a non-invasive stereotactic positioning and tracking system that uses cameras to capture infra-red images of patients, and process these images, to obtain...

  • A low ground bounce CMOS off-chip driver design

    Creator:
    Zheng, Jieyin
    Abstract:
    With the advancement of technology, submicron CMOSonly process is available now for Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). The high integration leads to the need for high pin counts. However voltage supply and ground bounce due to many output drivers switching at the same time is becoming a major problem. In...

  • Flex-shape convolution and an interactive image segmentation system

    Creator:
    Zhou, Zheng
    Abstract:
    Semantic image segmentation is a relatively difficult task in computer vision. With the advent of deep learning, semantic image segmentation is increasingly of interest for researchers because of the excellent predictions from Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). However, CNNs have proven to struggle with obtaining global context of image due to...

  • Low power high resolution data converter in digital CMOS technology

    Creator:
    Zheng, Zhiliang
    Abstract:
    The advance of digital IC technology has been very fast, as shown by rapid development of DSP, digital communication and digital VLSI. Within electronic signal processing, analog-to-digital conversion is a key function, which converts the analog signal into digital form for further processing. Recently, low-voltage and low-power have become also...

  • A simple local area network, COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network)

    Creator:
    Zheng, Yuepeng
    Abstract:
    COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network ) is a redesign of the Task-Master, a daisy-chain structure distributed control system. COLAN is a simple bus structure communication subnetwork intended for distributed control applications. Low cost and simplicity are two main design criteria. Point-to-point and broadcast communications are possible. A packet switching...

  • Developing safety performance functions for 4-leg single-lane roundabouts based on Oregon data : a case study

    Creator:
    Zheng, Jianfei
    Abstract:
    Roundabouts have become an alternative for traditional intersections due to the safer operational performance. Previous research has provided crash modification factors (CMFs) as a criterion based on before-after studies as to evaluate the safety performance of roundabouts. One drawback of assessment based on crash modification factors, however, is that a...

  • Using Computational and Statistical Methods as an Aid to Study Environmentally Relevant Organic Molecules

    Creator:
    Dorn, Shelby E.
    Abstract:
    In this report, three studies are presented that utilize computations to predict transformations, identities, and properties of environmental organic molecules. Each study shows how computations can lead to models of chemical behavior. The importance of this research is rooted in the need for understanding how human behavior and health intersect...
