Counting coloured boxes
… The variables correspond to a colouring of the boxes according to a finite abelian subgroup G of SO(3). These generating functions turn out to be orbifold Donaldson-Thomas partition functions for the orbifold [C³/G]. We need only the vertex operator methods of Okounkov-Reshetikhin-Vafa for the …

Storage life of fresh whitefish fillets in grass fiber boxes and expanded polystyrene boxes
… that a significant percentage of polystyrene boxes are collected in landfills after being used and discarded which leads to environmental pollution. Therefore, the implementation of grass fiber box as an alternative to EPS packaging will significantly reduce the damage to the environment and …

Numerical Modelling of Corrugated Paperboard Boxes
Corrugated paperboard boxes are widely used for transporting fresh produce, yet they can lose structural integrity under static palletising loads, leading to package damage and reduced produce quality. Finite element simulation offers a cost effective route to improved package design, but its …

Turbulent Line Plumes and Filling Boxes
… between line plumes and related flows. Filling boxes are commonly interpreted with the Baines & Turner model in which a plume fills a confined environment with a series of infinitesimally thin and passive layers. Flow visualisations show that this idealised filling process does not represent the …

Graph representations using stars, trees, intervals and boxes
We introduce star number (tree number) of a graph G, which is the minimum t such that G is the intersection graph of unions of t substars (subtrees) of a host tree. We characterize the graphs with star number 1 and prove that a planar graph has star number at most 3. We study bounds on these two …

Presentation, Structure, and Storytelling of Perinatal Loss Memory Boxes
… professionals who care for them. Memory boxes are a customary component of perinatal bereavement care, intended to support continuing bonds by preserving tangible connections between bereaved parents and their baby. Traditionally, these boxes contain items that hold significance and …

Design and manufacture of the 2003 2.007 wireless control boxes
A new smaller, lighter, and more durable wireless control box was designed and built for use in the 2.007 Design Contest. The new units can also be commanded by an external controller via a standard serial interface.

Steel boxes of the everyday: in search of the (extra) ordinary
… d configurations of the seemingly ordinary steel boxes begin to reveal intriguing forms and spatial qualities and I often found myself envisioning the spaces which may be revealed within and around the containers. With the notion of the shipping container as a spatial object of an ordinary, …

Four Black Boxes and a Beacon: A Theater for Roanoke, Virginia
A proposition for a theater in Roanoke, Virginia is the vehicle for the exploration of architectural ideas on space, form, materiality, and atmosphere. The thesis developed through a series of models and drawings that studied oppositions in mass, scale, transparency, opacity, and most importantly, …

The Perception of the Food Pantry Customer Receiving Diabetes-Friendly Food Boxes
… diabetes-friendly (low-glycemic index) food boxes developed for food insecure individuals with type 2diabetes using food pantries. The analysis is based upon three focus groups and one interview with participants of an on-going study, conducted from October through November 2012. An …

The evolution of 'Boxes' to quantized inductive learning: a study in inductive learning
… Learning (QIL) algorithm, an extension of ‘Boxes’, on simple linear systems and a simulated simply supported aluminum beam. Concurrent with the simulations, a theoretical analysis of the learning mechanism was generated. The evaluation of several issues with the algorithm (performance …

Segment and Cut: A Simpler Method for Extracting Bounding-Boxes for Object Detection
… the need for bounding-box regression, anchor-boxes, region proposal methods and all of their associated complexities. Experiments show that my method gets competitive performance on the WIDER Face dataset with full-size images and runs between 30 and 50 FPS when using 640x480 pixel images.

Bat Boxes as Mitigation Tools: Factors Impacting Microclimate and Myotis sodalis Roost Selection
… often deploy artificial roosts (e.g., bat boxes). There are no established species-specific practices for deployment strategy and roost design selection, but occupancy rates are known to vary across species and roost microclimates can be harmful to bats. Providing bats with thermally …

Kernel Machines are Not Black Boxes - On the Interpretability of Kernel-based Nonparametric Models
… are often perceived as uninterpretable black boxes. This notion is however questionable; permutation-based variable importance, for example, is one approach for interpreting various nonparametric models. Unfortunately, besides being computationally intensive, permutation-based variable …
