Optimizing Cancer Drug Treatment Models Using Process Dynamics

Creator:: Jones, Alexander R.
Abstract:: Cancer is currently the second leading cause of death in the United States and the sixth leading cause of death worldwide. Due to cancer’s variability in type, location, growth rates, and patient physiology, treatment models are based off of previous experimental and clinical work. This variability, however, can lead to...

Tracking the Range Expansion of a Native Bee, the Squash Bee, Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa; (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Oregon using Community Science

Creator:: Jones, Miranda L.
Abstract:: The foraging distance of bees has been intensely studied. In contrast, little is known about the factors that determine bee dispersal distance, especially on large spatial scales. Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa is a wild ground nesting bee that exclusively collects pollen from squash in the genus Cucurbita. Although the bee occurs...

Cancer Cell Detection with Mask R-CNN

Creator:: Wong, Ryan
Abstract:: Instance segmentation, the classification and localization of objects in an image, is a problem in cellular biophysics due to the physiological relevance of cell morphology. Particularly, cancer cells migrate in tissue space by changing their body shape similarly to how humans extend their limbs to swim through water. Monitoring such...

Application of lean manufacturing principles to the healthcare workforce training system : Using lean principles to determine best practices in healthcare workforce planning for Linn, Benton, and Lincoln Counties (Oregon)

Creator:: Bame, Christopher A.
Abstract:: Increasing complexity and demand of healthcare has not been matched with policy changes and improvements in healthcare training. In Linn, Benton, and Lincoln Counties (LBL), a few challenges that prevent the efficient training of healthcare providers are (1) limited training capacity due to clinical placements and availability of qualified faculty...

Detection and Segmentation of Bird Song in Noisy Environments

Creator:: Neal, Lawrence W.
Abstract:: Recent work in machine learning concerns the detection and identification of bird species from audio recordings of their vocalizations. Such analysis can yield valuable ecological information concerning the activity and distribution of species in the wild. Current species-identification methods require individual syllables of bird audio as input, but field-collected audio...

Predicting Watershed Characteristics Using Bacterial DNA

Creator:: Chadwick, Jessica A.
Abstract:: This study was conducted to determine if bacterial DNA present streams could be used to predict upstream watershed characteristics. Previous studies have found that bacterial composition in soil is influenced by land use. It was hypothesized that if the bacteria present in a stream is known that it can be...

The United States Election System: How an Outdated Electoral Structure has led to Political Polarization in the United States

Creator:: Fitzharris, Jacob H.
Abstract:: Political Polarization in the United States is at a level higher today than at any point in the past few decades. Possible causes of this rise in polarization have been provided from various sources, including explanations such as mass media and income inequality. Through historical analysis and a wide literature...

A General Framework for Predicting the Geospatial Distribution of Botanical Species

Creator:: Chick, Jesse S.
Abstract:: The local presence or absence of individual botanical species can be predicted with high accuracy by a simple feed-forward neural network, using only local climate data to make inference. This study proposes a framework for learning these predictive models, demonstrates highly accurate predictions for species with a sufficiently large area...
