An assessment of risk factors for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and provider practices for post-GDM care

Creator:: Hunsberger, Monica L.
Abstract:: The number of women diagnosed with diabetes, including gestational diabetes, will continue to increase in the face of epidemic rates of obesity. The concurrent rise in obesity and diabetes makes it important to determine the risk factors for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and the nature and extent of care offered...

Forms of Life: Goethe’s Impact on Twentieth-Century Anglophone Botany and Morphology

Creator:: Hahn, Andre M.
Abstract:: This dissertation examines the impact of the German naturalist and literary figure Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s ideas on twentieth century Anglophone plant morphology and biology. Goethe interpreted the organ forms of flowering plants as metamorphoses of each other. His literary, historical, and philosophical writings suggest themes of alienation from and...

Glyphosate-resistance in Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum): evaluation and investigation of the mechanisms of resistance

Creator:: Perez-Jones, Alejandro
Abstract:: A suspected glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) (OR) population was collected from a filbert (Corylus avellana L.) orchard near Portland, OR. Based on the dose-response experiments conducted in the greenhouse, it was found that the suspected glyphosate-resistant population was approximately fivefold more resistant to glyphosate than the susceptible (S) population....

Graphical models for multivariate spatial data

Creator:: Irvine, Kathryn M.
Abstract:: In this thesis we focus on a graphical model for multivariate spatially correlated data--isomorphic chain graphs (ICG; Gitelman and Herlihy, 2007). We feel ICG allow flexibility for modeling spatial correlation and are intuitively appealing because each model has an associated graph that visually represents a complex multivariate system. We examine...

An Integrated Approach to Gauge the Effects of Global Climate Change on Headwater Stream Ecosystems

Creator:: Bury, Gwendolynn W.
Abstract:: Climate change is predicted to affect ecosystems, including systems already stressed by human impacts. One ecosystem that is already highly impacted by human land use is the cold headwater stream system of the Pacific Northwest. One method of assessing the function of an ecosystem is by using an indicator species....

Some factors controlling the establishment and distribution of Quercus agrifolia Nee and Q. engelmannii Greene in certain southern California oak woodlands

Creator:: Snow, Gerald Eldon
Abstract:: The structure of two oak woodland types in the Santa Rosa region of the Santa Ana Mountains of southern California has been described by Zuill (1967). One type called the grass oak woodland (GOW) is composed mainly of Q. engelmannii on hills and slopes. The other type called the dense...

Tolerating processor-memory performance gap

Creator:: Lai, Shih-Chang
Abstract:: While the performance gap between microprocessors and main memory is ever increasing each year, cache memory has been a bridge to alleviate this discrepancy. In this thesis proposal, we introduce three techniques to tolerate this processor and memory speed imbalance. First, we propose the bloom filter scheme to identify which...

Design for Clean Technology Adoption: Application of Discrete Choice Analysis and the Theory of Planned Behavior for Development Engineering

Creator:: Pakravan, Mohammad H.
Abstract:: Clean technologies can address multiple challenges associated with climate change, environmental protection, and human health. However, the impact desired by introduction of such technologies is achievable only if new options effectively replace inefficient, conventional practices. This ‘design for adoption’ requires understanding of user motivations, associated beliefs, context of use, and...

Structured gradient boosting

Creator:: Parker, Charles (Charles Lincoln)
Abstract:: The goal of many machine learning problems can be formalized as the creation of a function that can properly classify an input vector, given a set of examples of that function. While this formalism has produced a number of success stories, there are notable situations in which it fails. One...
