An Empirical Analysis of the Impact of Climate-related Disasters on the Regional Economy

Creator:: Fouzia, Sultana Z.
Abstract:: The ongoing climate change has impacted the lives and livelihoods of people. A climate-related disaster acts as an exogenous shock to the economy that can have lingering effects over a larger region even if all the locations are not directly affected. Climate-related disasters do not follow the administrative boundaries. So,...

Two Essays on Local Government Finances in the United States

Creator:: Jung, Jaeho
Abstract:: County governments in the United States play important roles in the tax collection and public service provisions. Thus, a better understanding of the local government finances is closely related to the welfares of residents. In this dissertation, I provide two essays: in the first essay, I examine the fiscal impacts...

Statistical analysis of RNA sequencing count data

Creator:: Mi, Gu
Abstract:: RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) has rapidly become the de facto technique in transcriptome studies. However, established statistical methods for analyzing experimental and observational microarray studies need to be revised or completely re-invented to accommodate RNA-Seq data's unique characteristics. In this dissertation, we focus on statistical analyses performed at two particular stages in...

Some potential mechanisms for finely-tuned regulation of phospholipase C-β isozymes : studies of dimerization and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate activation

Creator:: Zhang, Yong
Abstract:: Phospholipase C-β (PLC-β) isozymes are key effectors in G protein-coupled signaling pathways. Prior research suggested that some isoforms of PLC-β may exist and function as dimers, but little is known about dimerization of PLC-β. Data from coimmunoprecipitation assays of differentially-tagged PLC-β constructs and sizeexclusion chromatography of native PLC-β support homodimerization...

Fine-Grained Object Recognition Under Limited Training Data

Creator:: Lam, Michael Q.
Abstract:: This dissertation addresses object recognition in challenging settings, where distinct object classes are visually very similar (e.g., species of birds and insects) and/or access to training examples of object classes is limited (e.g., due to the associated high costs of data annotation). In this dissertation, we present a variety of...

Innovating Feature Selection in Data Science

Creator:: Rubocki, Nikita
Abstract:: Data science is a rapidly growing industry permeating throughout every aspect of society. Everything collects data these days, and people use this data to find meaningful patterns leading to benefits ranging from more intuitive marketing to better cancer detection. However, increased data collection also leads to increased complexity, and data...

Ultrastructural study of the embryo during germination involving douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menseizii Franco) seeds

Creator:: Hsu, Kay Yong-Yong
Abstract:: The seeds of Douglas fir, a representative of the gymnosperm flora, were studied at six stages of germination to discern the structures of food reserves and to study ultrastructural changes occurring during germination in the embryo and resulting seedlings. The materials were fixed in three fixatives, dehydrated with ethanol series,...

Development of a D genome specific marker resource for diploid and hexaploid wheat

Creator:: Wang, Yi, Drader, Thomas, Tiwari, Vijay K., Dong, Lingli, Kumar, Ajay, Huo, Naxin, Ghavami, Farhad, Iqbal, M. Javed, Lazo, Gerard R., Leonard, Jeff, Gill, Bikram S., Kianian, Shahryar F., Luo, Ming-Cheng, and Gu, Yong Q.
Abstract:: Background: Mapping and map-based cloning of genes that control agriculturally and economically important traits remain great challenges for plants with complex highly repetitive genomes such as those within the grass tribe, Triticeae. Mapping limitations in the Triticeae are primarily due to low frequencies of polymorphic gene markers and poor genetic...

Collective electronic excitation modes in a superlattice

Creator:: Lee, Yong-Inn
Abstract:: Collective excitation(plasmon) modes of an electron gas in a multilayer system (superlattice) have been studied in great detail in recent years. One important aspect of this Fermion system is that the dispersion relation of the plasma frequency shows transitional behavior between two- and three- dimensional character. Inelastic light scattering experiment...

On the multipole expansion in the computation of gravity anomalies

Creator:: Kim, So Gu
Abstract:: Techniques for computing gravity anomalies by multipole expansions obtained from surface integrals and volume integrals are derived together with a vertical line element method. The results are compared with exact calculation for right rectangular prisms and right circular cylinders and the effects of block size and separation between the field...
