Probing the Diversity of Fast Radio Bursts with CHIME/FRB
… Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME)/FRB project has revolutionized the FRB field with its field-leading discovery rate. With CHIME/FRB, we can start to carry out population-level studies of FRBs to constrain their origins and inform their use as cosmological probes. I present …

Localization and Lensing of Fast Radio Bursts using CHIME/FRB and its VLBI Outriggers
… Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is perhaps the single most promising path towards uncovering the mystery of FRBs. CHIME detects about 700 FRBs per year, but lacks the resolution to pinpoint its bursts. Very-long baseline interferometry (VLBI) is a solution which uses …

Controlling for the Ionospheric and Baseline-Offset Uncertainties in the CHIME/FRB Outriggers VLBI Network for Milliarcsecond Precision
… Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME)/FRB project has led the field with the hundreds of FRB detections the collaboration has published to date. However, these detections typically have localization regions so large that we cannot identify a single host galaxy, never mind its …

Digital Signal Processing for the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment
… Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) and its Pathfinder. CHIME is designed to investigate the behaviour of Dark Energy in order to constrain its physical mechanism; it will do so by examining the geometry of the recent universe using as a `standard ruler' the imprint of the …

Experimental analysis of specific auditory-light safety belt reminder systems and safety belt behavior: "prods" or "prompts"
… of different auditory reminder stimuli (i.e., chime, buzzer, and voice), temporal factors (e.g., presentation delays and second reminders) I and the measurement of the driver's safety belt use. Three modifications were explored: the presentation of a Delayed Reminder, Second Reminder, and …

Automatic Speech Recognition Quality Estimation
… manner. The experiments are mostly conducted on CHiME-3 English dataset. CHiME-3 consists of Wall Street Journal utterances, recorded by multiple far distant microphones in noisy environments. The results show that QE-informed acoustic model adaptation leads to 1.8\% absolute WER reduction and …

What matters to me? Photovoice with people living with severe mental illness
… through the lens of the recovery framework CHIME (Connection, Hope and optimism, Identity Meaning, Empowerment). Findings illustrate that participants identified home, and homemaking, the things they do and the people in their life as what matters. Contrary to much of the literature, …

'It was as if she had said....': May Sinclair and reading narratives of cure
… terms of formal experimentation too her concerns chime with the aesthetic innovations of, for example, pound, Eliot and Woolf. Her early interest in psychoanalysis and support for the suffrage campaign also mark her out as a modern. Despite some work from feminist literary critics and her partial …

Increasing Transplant Medication Knowledge Through Implementation Of A Medication Education Intervention Algorithm
<p>Limited health literacy (LHL) has profound implications on measured transplant outcomes as it is associated with higher incidence of graft loss, organ rejection, decreased immunosuppression medication adherence, and increased hospital re-admissions. Identification of patients with limited health …

Application of Background Oriented Schlieren (BOS) in Underground Mine Ventilation
The schlieren technique describes an optical analysis method designed to enhance light distortions caused by air movement. The ability to visualize gas flows has significant implications for analyzing underground mine ventilation systems. Currently, the widely utilized traditional schlieren methods …

Development and Evaluation of a Permeation Plug Release Vessel (PPRV) for the Release of Perfluoromethylcyclohexane (PMCH) in Underground Mine Tracer Gas Studies
The use of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) as a tracer gas for analyzing underground mine ventilation systems has been practiced for over 30 years. As a result, the methods used to release, sample, and analyze SF6 are well accepted. Although improvements are still being made to enhance the analysis of …

Investigation of the monazite chemical dating technique
… independently against the calculated Th* or U* CHIME ages. Across the entire 2,200 m.y. age range represented by the sample set, the chemical ages calculated from the EMP data chemical ages are internally consistent (within 2Ï error) with the previously measured SHRIMP isotopic ages, except in …

Capitalism and private nature reserves: the taming of Mala Mala land claim
… restitution produce a model of land reform that chime with neoliberalism. Backed by government and landowners, the model separates business ownership from landownership in order to guarantee capital accumulation. This study contributes to our understanding of land restitution in private nature …

Clinical foundations and information architecture for the implementation of a federated health record service
Clinical care increasingly requires healthcare professionals to access patient record information that may be distributed across multiple sites, held in a variety of paper and electronic formats, and represented as mixtures of narrative, structured, coded and multi-media entries. A longitudinal …
