  • Heuristic search in symbolic probability inference

    Creator:
    Pan, Yonghong
    Abstract:
    I present a new heuristic search approach to compute approximate answers for the probability query in belief nets. This approach can compute the 'best' bounds for a query in a period of any given time (if time permitted, it will get an exact value). It inherits the essence of Symbolic...

  • Implementation of molecular collection theory

    Creator:
    Srinivasan, Vijay
    Abstract:
    Hayes, in his Naive Physics Manifesto, identified two alternate ontologies for reasoning about liquids, an ontology based on the notion of a contained substance and one based on the notion of a molecular collection. Qualitative Process theory, proposed by Forbus, lends itself easily to encoding the contained substance ontology. It...

  • Nesting season ecology of marbled murrelets at a remote mainland fjord in southeast Alaska

    Creator:
    Barbaree, Blake A.
    Abstract:
    This thesis focuses on the nesting ecology and marine space use of Marbled Murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus) during the 2007 and 2008 nesting seasons in and around Port Snettisham, a remote mainland fjord in Southeast Alaska. Marbled Murrelets (murrelets) are a declining species throughout most of their range, and their conservation...

  • Evidence for Cross-Seasonal Effects: Insights from Long-term Data on Northern Pintail

    Creator:
    Zarzycki, Megan C.
    Abstract:
    Cross-seasonal effects, where conditions in one season can have consequences in a following season, can have population-level implications for migratory species. To assess the presence of cross-seasonal effects on a migratory dabbling duck population, we examined the relative importance of habitat conditions in multiple seasons on the subsequent productivity of...

  • Exploring Vitamin B9 Diversity for the Nutritional Improvement of Potato

    Creator:
    Robinson, Bruce R.
    Abstract:
    The cultivated potato, Solanum tuberosum L., has been one of the world’s most important food crops for more than 190 years and may become even more important to global food security in the coming 20 - 30 years. One of the world's largest growing health concerns is not just the...

  • Changing Climate, Changing Contexts : Variation in Rocky Intertidal Predator-prey Interactions Seen Through an Environmental Stress Framework

    Creator:
    Cerny-Chipman, Elizabeth B.
    Abstract:
    The multifaceted role of the environment in regulating the structure and dynamics of biological communities has long fascinated ecologists and motivated much debate and research. Now, in a time of accelerated global changes due to human impacts, the need to understand how the environment shapes communities has gained new urgency....

  • Comparative wintering ecology of two subspecies of sandhill crane : informing conservation planning in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta region of California

    Creator:
    Ivey, Gary L.
    Abstract:
    California's Central Valley agricultural landscapes provide several important wintering regions for Pacific Flyway sandhill crane (Grus canadensis) populations; however, the value of those regions is being compromised by urban expansion, other developments, and conversions to incompatible crop types. Greater (G. c. tabida) and lesser sandhill cranes (G. c. canadensis) both...

  • A graphical editor for OSU v3.0

    Creator:
    Lin, Fangchen
    Abstract:
    Development of graphical user interface (GUI) applications is difficult since the process can be both complicated and tedious. We propose a solution directed at reducing programming time and effort required to build a GUI application. Our solution is based on the Petri Network, the Oregon SpeedCode Universe (OSU) Application Framework,...
