Motivation and adjustment and story sequence analysis
… method outlined in Magda B. Arnold's "Story Sequence Analysis" (1962). These scores were then correlated with adjustment scores obtained from the "Child and Adolescent Adjustment Profile" (CAAP). Aggregate descriptive results indicated a relationship of 0.50 existed between adjustment and …

Latent variable models for hippocampal sequence analysis
Place cell activity of hippocampal pyramidal cells has been described as the cognitive substrate of spatial memory. Indeed, the activity of ensembles of neurons within the hippocampus is thought to enable memory formation, storage, recall, and even decision making. Replay is observed during …

RNA-sequence analysis of human melanoma cells
… sequencing technologies that are used to sequence cDNA in order to get the complete information of a sample's RNA content. The objective of this study is to analyze this data in different aspects and to characterize gene expression. Besides this characterization, the data was also used to …

Some Probability Methods For DNA Sequence Analysis
Probability models are employed in the analysis of data emerging from DNA sequence studies. To sequence DNA sequences, one of the methods employed is to sequence overlapping fragments of the DNA. These overlapping fragments form a contig. In this thesis, probability methods to study the mean number …

Scalable Tools for High-throughput Viral Sequence Analysis
Viral sequence data are increasingly being used to estimate evolutionary and epidemiological parameters to understand the dynamics of viral diseases. This thesis focuses on developing novel and improved computational methods for high-throughput analysis of large viral sequence datasets. I have …

RNA and DNA Sequence Analysis of the Human Transcriptome
… the second part of this thesis, we utilize the sequence information provided by RNA-Seq to analyze systematic differences between DNA and RNA sequence. The transmission of information from DNA to RNA is a critical process and is expected to occur in a one-to-one fashion. By comparing the DNA …

THE ROLE OF COMPLEX EVOLUTIONARY DYNAMICS IN MOLECULAR SEQUENCE ANALYSIS
… used to quantify selective pressure on molecular sequences. The work contained within this dissertation represents my efforts to create, validate, and test codon models, and to apply them to biologically diverse data sets. Specifically, my objective is to determine the impact and consequences of …

Cloning and sequence analysis of plasmid DNA from Helicobactor pylori
… DH5$\alpha$F$\sp\prime$ and DH5$\alpha$MCR for sequence determination. The DNA sequence was determined using the dideoxy ribonucleotide chain termination method. This sequence was added to the sequence of the 684 bp HindIII fragment sequenced previously by Chen (Chen, MS thesis 1993, Denton, …

Algorithmic Developments for Sequence Analysis, Structure Modeling and Functional Prediction of Proteins
Sequence, structure and function, being the three most important properties of proteins, are interrelated through homology relationships. In this post-genome era, we are equipped with abundant sequence information. Homology inference is thus of great practical importance because of its ability to …

Probabilistic arithmetic automata : applications of a stochastic computational framework in biological sequence analysis
The immense amount of biological sequence data available these days requires efficient and sensitive analysis in order to provide e.g. the identification of unknown proteins, or information about the similarity between DNA sequences. Furthermore, new challenges to computational sequence analysis …

16S rRNA sequence analysis of silver carp microbial community in eDNA water samples
… containing set numbers of invasive Silver Carp. Analysis eDNA samples typically involves only targeting the species of interest. However, eDNA detection alone cannot undeniably confirm the presence of the species of interest and a second line of evidence would be beneficial in making this assay …

Measuring heat exchange processes at the air-water interface from thermographic image sequence analysis
… characterizing them established. Based on this analysis a second way to estimate the heat flux is presented. These techniques are based on thermal image sequences on which a motion analysis is performed. The motion is modelled in a general parameterization and physically motivated intensity …

Genome Sequence Analysis and Characterization of Recombinant Enzymes from the Thermoacidophilic Archaeon Picrophilus torridus
Picrophilus torridus ist ein thermo- und acidophiles Archaebacterium, welches mit seinen Wachstumsoptimum bei 60 °C und pH 0,7 den bislang acidophilsten bekannten Organismus repräsentiert. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde das komplette Genom von P. torridus sequenziert und im Anschluss die …

Sequence Analysis of PMEL17 as Candidate Gene for Causing Rat-Tail Syndrome in Cattle
… segregating for the rat-tail syndrome were sequenced at Pmel17 in order to identify putative causative mutations. Two mutations were detected, a three base pair (bp) deletion in exon 1 at codon 18 removing a leucine residue, and a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at codon 612 resulting …
