Generalization of kernel machine methods for association testing of multi-omics data
… analyses using the kernel machine regression (KMR) testing framework. Within this context, we propose three projects. For project one, we extend an existing KMR testing method to accommodate joint association testing of two data types with a trait of interest in correlated samples. For project …

Scalable data analytics techniques for summarizing spatial network-based observations
… paths. This work proposes a K-Main Routes (KMR) approach that discovers k shortest paths to summarize activities. To improve performance, KMR uses network Voronoi, divide and conquer, and pruning strategies. Experimental results on synthetic and real data show that KMR with our …

Bayesian Inference Based on Nonparametric Regression for Highly Correlated and High Dimensional Data
… as fused kernel machine regression (Fused-KMR). Lastly, it presents a Bayesian hierarchical framework designed to identify multiple change points in the relationship between ambient temperature and mortality rate. This framework, unlike traditional methods, treats change points as random …

How Māori precariat whānau navigate social services : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for a Master of Arts in Psychology at Massey University, New Zealand
… Māori Theory (KMT) and Kaupapa Māori Research (KMR) and utilized qualitative methods, including repeat semi-structured interviews. My approach enabled participants to share their experiences of how the present welfare system operates, their strategies for accessing resources, and the broader …

Obstructive sleep apnoea in Aotearoa/New Zealand : an objective and questionnaire-based approach to population prevalence and clinical screening : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Health at Massey University, Wellington Campus, New Zealand
… was conducted within a Kaupapa Māori Research (KMR) framework. Between August 1999 and June 2001 letters and information were progressively sent out to 1200 (600 Māori, 600 non-Māori) Wellington residents aged 30-60 years selected randomly from the electoral rolls. Participants were asked to …

Performance Evaluation of Wells With Single and Multiple Fractures in Tight Formations
… parameters, i.e., relative minimum permeability (kmr) and non-Darcy number (FND), have been introduced to incorporate the non-Darcy effect on flow performance for a vertical well with single fracture. Compared with the Forchheimer’s equation, the Barree-Conway model causes a smaller pressure drop …

Exploring Māori Experiences of Bariatric Surgery
… bariatric surgery using Kaupapa Māori Research (KMR) methodology to lay the foundations for future research on Māori health and bariatric surgery. Methods A mixed methods approach was used to address the overall study aim. First, the thesis aimed to set the context for Māori health in surgery and …

Karakterisering van Grubbs-tipe prekatalisatore met behulp van kernmagnetiese resonansspektroskopie
Since the development of the ruthenium containing precatalysts Grubbs 1 (1) and Grubbs 2 (2), there was an increase in the development of new precatalysts. The NMR characterization could not cope with this. The NMR characterization mainly consists of 1H, 31P, COSY and rarely 13C. Due to the high …

Beyond the solar surface: an observational study of solar coronal loops
… A typical footpoint velocity of 1.5 kms'±0.7 kmr' is obtained and a reconnection rate of -.0.00 1-0.03 is determined. Secondly, the double filter ratio temperature analysis method employed upon TRACE 171, 195 and 284 A coronal images is re-addressed. Two features from TRACE datasets published …
