Overlap
… and understanding of a design ordered by two overlapping reference systems. A mixed-use building serves as the project to resolve the complexities of overlap that result from rotation, and to explore ideas of transparency.

The Argument from Species Overlap
The "argument from species overlap" (abbreviated ASO) claims that some human and nonhuman animals possess similar sets of morally relevant characteristics, and are therefore similarly morally significant. The argument stands as a general challenge to moral theories, because many theories hold that …

Gestural overlap of stop-consonant sequences
… of synthetic sequences with varying degrees of overlap were administered. From acoustic analysis, synthesis verification, and perception testing, two principles emerged. First, V1Cl#C2V2 stop-consonant sequences with front-to-back order of place of articulation have more overlap of articulators …

Multiresonant Plasmonics with Spatial Mode Overlap
… plasmonic systems with spatial mode overlap". We start by a literature review to elucidate the importance of this topic as well as its current and potential applications. Then, we briefly discuss the fundamentals of plasmonic resonances and mode hybridization to thoroughly explore, …

Design and optimisation of adhesively bonded overlap joints
… For example, the introduction of fillets at the overlap ends or tapering of the substrates can reduce the peel stresses at the overlap end. This work reviews the most common joint optimisations and compares the stress distribution of a selection of joint improvements numerically. A parametric …

On Communication-Computation Overlap in High-Performance Computing
… offering the additional benefit of being able to overlap communication and computation. However, it has been demonstrated that collective operations have to be carefully tuned for a given platform and application scenario to maximize their performance. Also, using non-blocking-collective …

Parent-Childcare Provider Partnerships: Exploring Beliefs About Overlap
… Part one investigated the question of what overlap areas do parents and providers believe to be important. Data was collected using questionnaires. Part two of the study consisted of in-depth structured interviews with a sub-sample. Part two of the study explored the second research question …

Temporally consistent FastDVDNet: an overlap loss implementation for FastDVDNet
<p>The objective of this thesis is the improvement of FastDVDNet’s temporal performance within the video denoising problem space. Video denoising refers to the removal of undesired artifacts, or noise, from a given video sequence. Due to the temporal nature of video sequences, flickering or …

Functional overlap in gene duplications of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
… This study reveals phenotypes for functionally overlapping genes and classifies selected duplicated genes as functionally overlapping or divergent. A region of DNA on chromosomes I and XV containing 12 duplicated genes was examined. Mutants were created containing deletions of one or both …

Federal Subsidy Overlap in Affordable Rental Housing in the United States
… but little research has been done to assess this overlap. This thesis explores the functionality of these two programs and how they are used together to address affordable rental housing needs in the United States. Through a systematic literature review and qualitative interviews with experts in …

Collection Overlap of Eight Hospital Libraries in a Health Sciences Consortium
… quantify and describe the extent of collection overlap and diversity among eight health sciences libraries, members of a consortium of over twenty-five midwest libraries, and investigates how various factors such as library size, subject of material, and the Brandon/Hill List relate to the …

Potential market overlap between the Gautrain and the PRASA modernisation program
… these upgrades could result in a rail market overlap between Rapid Rail services and the PRASA Modernisation services. The rail market overlap holds two scenarios, a complimentary overlap and a competitive overlap. A complimentary overlap involves one rail service integrating with another, …

Computational Hardness in Random Optimization Problems from the Overlap Gap Property
… coincide for spin glasses exhibiting a no overlap gap property, but are generically not equal. We prove that for mixed even p-spin models, no algorithm satisfying an overlap concentration property can produce an objective larger than ALG. This property holds for all algorithms with suitably …

Petrology of the Taconian-Acadian Overlap Zone, Hartland Belt, Western Connecticut
Cameron's Line in western Connecticut and its equivalents in western Massachusetts and Vermont mark a major tectonic boundary in the New England Appalachians and are considered by many to delineate the trace of the Taconian suture zone. The Cambro-Ordovician Ratlum Mountain and Rowe Formations lie …

How Rubies are Formed: The Overlap Between Sexual Violence Trauma and Autoimmunity
This thesis explores the relationship between sexual violence trauma and autoimmune disease in tandem with my probing of my relationship to my mother from childhood to adulthood. This work creatively extends upon the knowledge that approximately four-fifths of those afflicted by autoimmune diseases …

Learning from class-imbalanced data: overlap-driven resampling for imbalanced data classification.
… However, a number of reports showed that class overlap had a higher negative impact on the learning process than class imbalance. This thesis thoroughly explores the impact of class overlap on the learning algorithm and demonstrates how elimination of class overlap can effectively improve the …

Exploring the conceptual overlap of the cognitive and affective theories of suicide
… their theoretical systems, many of those parts overlap conceptually. The purpose of this study was to find if the two theories could be combined to create a more holistic theory between them. The application of each theory's aspects, in the form of standardized scales administered online to 427 …
