Homomorphisms of wn-right cancellative, wn-bisimple, and wnI-bisimple semigroups
R. J. Warne has defined an w<sup>n</sup>-right cancellative semigroup to be a right cancellative semigroup with identity whose ideal structure is order isomorphic to (I<sup>o</sup>)<sup>n</sup>, where I<sup>o</sup> is the set of non-negative integers and n is a natural number, under the reverse …

Characterization of single-cycle flavivirus particles for use as a vaccine to prevent West Nile disease and to examine immune responses to flavivirus infection
West Nile virus (WNV) is responsible for the largest outbreak of viral encephalitis in the history of North America, yet there are no vaccines available to prevent this disease. To address these needs we have developed RepliVAX WN, a single-cycle flavivirus (SCFV)-based vaccine to prevent West Nile …

Relationships among lifetime measures of growth and frame size for commercial beef females in a pasture-based production system in the Appalachian region of the United States
… and calculated FS were recorded at weaning (WN), breeding at 13 mo age (BR), and 8 subsequent periods, ceasing at approximately 5 yr of age for 232 Angus-cross females born 2004 through 2008. Correlation analysis revealed significant (P < 0.001) relationships among BW taken at WN and BR with …

The role of TLR3- and MyD88-dependent signaling in the development of anti-West Nile virus adaptive immune responses induced by a vaccine candidate, RepliVAX WN.
… shape the adaptive immune response. RepliVAX WN, a single-cycle flavivirus (SCFV) vaccine candidate derived from West Nile virus (WNV), is intrinsically adjuvanted with multiple PAMPs and induces vigorous anti-WNV T and B cell responses. However, the innate mechanisms that link pattern …

HIGH DIMENSIONAL TIME SERIES ANALYSIS AND ITS APPLICATION IN MODELING TRANSMISSION DYNAMICS OF DENGUE
The testing of white noise (WN) is an essential step in time series analysis. In a high dimensional set-up, most existing methods either are computationally infeasible, or suffer from highly distorted Type-I errors, or both. To address this problem, we propose an easy-to-implement bootstrap method …

The effects of niacin and a single bout of exercise on blood lipid and lipoprotein profiles in postmenopausal women
… was first assigned followed by the with-niacin (WN) condition. The WN condition consisted of ingesting 1,000 mg/day of extended-release niacin for 4 weeks. Rest (R) and exercise (E) trials were randomly assigned within each WON or WN condition. During the E trial treadmill exercise was performed …

A Global Approach to Disease Prevention: Predicting High Risk Areas for West Nile Infection in the Us
WN virus has spread for over 60 years creating endemic and epidemic areas throughout Africa, Asia, and Europe, affecting human, bird, and equine populations. Its 1999 appearance in New York shows the ability of the virus to cross barriers and travel great distances, emerging into new territories …

West Nile virus vaccination protects against Usutu virus disease in mice
… (DENV), Usutu virus (USUV), West Nile virus (WNV), and Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), are rapidly emerging, global pathogens. Though the number of people impacted by each virus varies, there have been thousands to millions of people infected. The focus of this thesis work centers around …

Support Vector Machine algorithms : analysis and applications
… that determine the SVM classifier are known as support vectors (SVs). Motivated by the geometric derivation of the primal QP problem, we investigate how the dual problem is related to the geometry of SVs. This investigation leads to a geometric interpretation of the scaling property of …

Design, fabrication, and characterization of germanium MOSFETs with high-k gate dielectric stacks based on the nitride interfacial layers
… MOSFETs with GeON, Hf3N4, and AIN interlayers. WN/A1203/AIN gate stacks deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) were investigated in detail. The impact of AIN interlayer thickness and post-metal anneal conditions on the electrical properties of WN/A1203/AIN/Ge capacitors was determined. …

Massive stars in the Galactic Center Quintuplet cluster
… one further identified emission line star (Of/WN) with tailored Potsdam Wolf-Rayet (PoWR) models for expanding atmospheres (Hamann et al. 1995) that are applied to derive the stellar parameters of these stars. For this purpose, the atomic input data of the PoWR models had to be extended by …

High Multiplicity Strip Packing
… by n rectangular items, each having a width, 0 < wn ≤ 1, and height, 0 < hn ≤ 1. The objective is to place these items into a strip of width 1, without rotations, such that they are nonoverlapping and the total height of the resulting packing is minimized. In this thesis, we consider the version …

The Effect of an Unconscious Auditory Stimulus on Pilot Performance under Varying Instrument Flying Conditions
… the control group listened to white noise (WN). Performance was measured based on the deviation from the localizer (LOC), the glide slope (GS), and the air speed (AS). It was hypothesized that the UAS would assist in enhancing pilot performance under varying IFR weather conditions, and that …
