  • National health insurance in Taiwan : welfare analysis and hospital competition

    Creator:
    Chen, Wen-Yi
    Abstract:
    This dissertation consists of three essays that evaluate various types of health care policies from the social welfare perspective. Chapter 1 introduces the main ideas and framework of this dissertation. Chapter 2 evaluates the new co-payment policy, enacted on July 15, 2005 under Taiwan’s National Health Insurance (NHI). We show...

  • A New Approach of Computational Fluid Dynamics Studying Power Transient Critical Heat Flux

    Creator:
    Chen, Tsung-Wen
    Abstract:
    Power transient boiling has been studied for decades, however, the mechanistic understanding of phenomena which occur during such an event remains incomplete. Due to a dearth of systematic researches, the information of studied phenomenon, detailed physics and applicable hypothesis are very limited. Transient critical heat flux (CHF) is paramount in...

  • A case for application-based linear transformers : applied towards text-to-spectrogram

    Creator:
    Agostinelli, Victor
    Abstract:
    Various natural language processing (NLP) tasks necessitate deep models that are fast, efficient, and small based on their ultimate application at the edge or elsewhere. While significant investigation has furthered the efficiency and reduced the size of these models, reducing their downstream latency without significant trade-offs remains a difficult task....

  • Routerless Network-on-chip

    Creator:
    Alazemi, Fawaz
    Abstract:
    Traditional bus-based interconnects are simple and easy to implement, but the scalability is greatly limited. While router-based networks-on-chip (NoCs) offer superior scalability, they also incur significant power and area overhead due to complex router structures. In this thesis, a new class of on-chip networks, referred to as Routerless (RL) NoCs,...

  • Leakage power minimization by considering self-bias transistor and pin reordering technique

    Creator:
    Gopalakrishnan, Harish
    Abstract:
    Recent trends in CMOS technology and scaling of devices clearly indicate that leakage power in digital circuits would be crucial and largely depend on the sub-threshold current. Minimizing leakage is gaining increasing importance along with other critical design aspects primarily due to the growing demand for portable battery-operated electronic devices...

  • Micropower incremental analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Chen, Chia-Hung
    Abstract:
    Incremental ADCs (IADCs) have many advantages for low-frequency high-accuracy data conversion—they are easy to multiplex between channels, need simpler digital decimation filter, and allow extended counting with a Nyquist-rate ADC. A single-loop incremental ADC was designed and fabricated in 90 nm for a biosensor interface circuit. It incorporates one integrator,...

  • The Melamine Milk Scandal and Its Implication for Food Safety Policy in China

    Creator:
    Chen, Zhe
    Abstract:
    China suffered its biggest food-safety crisis in 2008 when it was discovered that melamine had been illegally added to the milk formula. More than 290,000 children were poisoned and at least six infants were dead. Chinese citizens and the governments around the world gave the Chinese government a lot of...

  • Object Tracking-by-Segmentation in Videos

    Creator:
    Chen, Sheng
    Abstract:
    This thesis focuses on the problem of object tracking. Given a video, the general objective of tracking is to track the location over time of one or more targets in the image sequence. This is a very challenging task as algorithms need to deal with problems such as appearance variations,...

    Creator:
    Chen, Di
    Abstract:
    In order to synthesize polyethylene by the microreactor with a catalyst, this thesis prepares the chemical coating layers for the reactor channel. There are two layers in the channel: the Phillips catalysts and an antimony-doped tin oxide layer on glass substrate. The Phillips catalyst help to synthesize polyethylene in the...
