Hybrid Statistical and Engineering Optimization Architectures in Early Multidisciplinary Designs of Resilience and Expensive Black-box Complex Systems

Creator:: Biswas, Arpan
Abstract:: Practical engineering design problems are generally multi-disciplinary with limited budget and high risk in terms of life loss, economic resources, etc. In the early phase of such problems, selection of true efficient designs is desired while minimizing overall design cost by avoiding expensive search processes. However, the task is difficult...

A Normal Approximation to N-mixture Models with Applications in Large Abundance Estimation and Disease Surveillance

Creator:: Brintz, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: N-mixture models provide a structure for making inference about a local population size while accounting for imperfect detection. Using a binomial likelihood, they assume prior distributions on the size parameters and then integrate those parameters out of the full likelihood. For large population sizes, the established frequentist methods have exhibited...

Statistics in Education: Contributions to Teaching and Data Analysis

Creator:: Totty, Njesa
Abstract:: In this dissertation we present a compilation of the research conducted during the author’s doctoral program. In the first part, we discuss a case study regarding the impact of scholar-ships on student success at Oregon State University (OSU). Specifically, we look at the grad-uation and retention rates and aim to...

Turbine Induced Bird and Bat Fatalities at Wind Projects : Statistical Methods for Mortality Estimation Using Road and Pad Carcass Surveys

Creator:: Maurer, Joseph D.
Abstract:: Turbines at wind projects pose a threat to birds and bats flying at altitudes within the rotor swept area. These animals die from colliding with the turbine blades. Estimating mortality, or the total number of bird or bat fatalities at a wind project, is critical to understanding environmental impacts of...

Measuring Local Genetic Variability in Populations of Codling Moth (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) Across an Unmanaged and Commercial Orchard Interface

Creator:: Fuentes-Contreras, Eduardo, Basoalto, Esteban, Franck, Pierre, Lavandero, Blas, Knight, Alan L., and Ramírez, Claudio C.
Abstract:: The genetic structure of adult codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), populations was characterized both inside a managed apple, Malus domestica Borkdhausen, orchard and in surrounding unmanaged hosts and nonhost trees in central Chile during 2006–2007. Adult males were collected using an array of sex pheromone-baited traps. Five microsatellite genetic markers...

A Linear Mixed Model Framework for Spatio-Temporal Random Processes using the Separable and Product-Sum Covariance Structures

Creator:: Dumelle, Michael J.
Abstract:: We describe spatio-temporal random processes using linear mixed models and discuss estimation, inference, and prediction under this formulation. We show how many commonly used covariances are special cases of this more general framework and pay special attention to the separable and product-sum covariances. The linear mixed model formulation facilitates straightforward...

Latinx Students in Latinx Fraternities and Sororities

Creator:: Martinez, Clara L.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to look at how Latinx fraternities and sororities influence a Latinx student’s identity development, academics, and their sense of belonging at a historically white university. A qualitative narrative study was utilized to understand the experiences of the four participants and their responses to the...

Modelling Early-Seral Vegetation Dynamics Using Climate and Soil Moisture

Creator:: Guevara, Claudio A.
Abstract:: Forest plantations in the Pacific Northwest are highly productive and have been intensively managed to maximize tree growth with practices such as Forest Vegetation Management (FVM). Different FVM regimes have been shown to enhance forest establishment by reducing the competition between the planted seedlings and early-seral vegetation. To better understand...
