Determining molecular chirality with femtosecond LASERs
More than 200 years since its first discovery Chirality remains one of the most challenging aspects of analytical chemistry. As chiral enantiomers share almost all physical properties they are only distinguishable through interaction with another chiral system, be it chiral molecules or circularly …

The Heinrich Model: Determining Contemporary Relevance
<p>For as long as his work has been at the core of the safety profession, Herbert William Heinrich has been a staple of debate. His 1931 work Industrial Accident Prevention: A Scientific Approach has sparked worldwide debate on the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of his safety theories, as well as …

Determining flaky tests from test failures
… someone else. The most widely used technique for determining whether a test failure is due to a flaky test is to rerun the failing test multiple times immediately after it fails: if some rerun does pass, the test is definitely flaky, but if all reruns still fail, the status is unknown. This thesis …

Determining intrinsic scene characteristics from images
Three fundamental problems in computer vision are addressed in this dissertation. The first deals with the problem of how to extract and assemble a rich symbolic representation of the gray level intensity changes in an image. Results show that the facet model based feature extraction scheme …

Determining the Genes for Distyly in Turnera
Heterostyly promotes outbreeding and reduces pollen wastage. Distylous species have two mating types: L-morph and S-morph plants, which are genetically determined by the S-locus. It was hypothesized that the S-locus carries at least three tightly linked genes constituting a supergene. The S-locus …

A compositional framework for determining pattern applicability.
The notion of ‘pattern’ originates in the work of Christopher Alexander and, in recent years, patterns have become a popular part of software development. A pattern is defined as a ‘three-part rule’: a relationship between a given context, a recurring system of forces peculiar to that context, and …

Determining and characterizing immunological self/non-self
The immune system has the ability to discriminate self from non-self proteins and also make appropriate immune responses to pathogens. A fundamental problem is to understand the genomic differences and similarities among the sets of self peptides and non-self peptides. The sequencing of human, …
