Optimizing Data Compression via Data Reordering Strategies
… they are not able to identify the internal patterns within given datasets. Thus, there remains substantial potential for further data size reduction by identifying repetitive data patterns. This thesis proposes two novel approaches to improve tabular data compres- sion performance. Both …

Ideals and Realities
… are contrasted with realities of life which have patterns and rhythms. These repetitive patterns bring experience and predictability, which can give us peace of mind and comfort. Predictability needs to be balanced with creativity, so that life remains interesting and challenging, and so that we …

Investigation of Rare Genetic Variation in Autism Spectrum Disorder by Genomic Screens
… deficits in social communication and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior or interests. ASD is highly heritable, however known genetic factors that contribute to ASD explain ~30% of cases, with each factor contributing to <1% of cases. The genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity of ASD reduces …

Decorator or narrator: A contextualisation of Slavic and Australian pattern making and its relationship to my painting practice
In this thesis, I will examine pattern making in art practice from two cultural perceptions, Slavic and Australian. Existing differences between the two cultural backgrounds will be used to debate how pattern is understood by the viewer or practiced by an artist in a particular chosen environment. …
