Building Blocks of Chinese Historiography: A Narratological Analysis of Shi Ji
… both earlier and later histories, such as the Zuo zhuan and Han shu. Shi ji presents a highly complicated past by manipulating interrelations among historical events, regulating information, and emphasizing changes and their effects. It pays most attention to how the historical events happened, …

Test-retest Reliability of Intrinsic Human Brain Default-Mode fMRI Connectivity: Slice Acquisition and Physiological Noise Correction Effects
… in longitudinal and clinical RS-fMRI studies (Zuo & Xing, 2014). Automatic DMN selection procedures and other quality assurance analyses were made to supervise ICA performance. Both studies considered several test-retest (TRT) reliability estimates (Vilagut, 2014) for some DMN connectivity …

Differential Network Analysis based on Omic Data for Cancer Biomarker Discovery
Recent advances in high-throughput technique enables the generation of a large amount of omic data such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, glycomics etc. Typically, differential expression analysis (e.g., student's t-test, ANOVA) is performed to identify biomolecules (e.g., …

Energy-efficient relay cooperation for lifetime maximization
We study energy-efficient power allocation among relays for lifetime maximization in a dual-hop relay network operated by amplify-and-forward relays with battery limitations. Power allocation algorithms are proposed for three different scenarios. First, we study the relay cooperation case where all …

Evaluation Of The Impacts Of Its Information Strategies On I-4 Corridor
This study evaluated the impacts of ITS information strategies under incident conditions in Interstate 4 (I-4) corridor of Orlando. The analysis was performed using DYNASMART-P software package. The ITS information strategies range from pre-trip information, en-route information, and variable …

Conditional Posterior Cramer-Rao Lower Bound and Distributed Target Tracking in Sensor Networks
<p>Sequential Bayesian estimation is the process of recursively estimating the state of a dynamical system observed in the presence of noise. Posterior Cramer-Rao lower bound (PCRLB) sets a performance limit onany Bayesian estimator for the given dynamical system. The PCRLBdoes not fully utilize …

Mechanisms of Subantarctic Mode Water re-emergence in a hybrid-coordinate global GCM
This study seeks to investigate the global circulation and re-emergence of Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW), which is thought to be important in providing the source of nutrients to drive biological production over large proportions of the world ocean. For this purpose, the HYbrid isopycnic-cartesian …

Efficient Bandwidth Reservation Strategies for Data Movements on High Performance Networks
Many next-generation e-science applications require fast and reliable transfer of large volumes of data, now frequently termed as ``big data", with guaranteed performance, which is typically enabled by the bandwidth reservation service in high-performance networks (HPNs). Users normally specify the …

Studies on bovine eye retinal calcineurin
Calcineurin (CaN), a member of ser/thr protein phosphatase, was cloned from bovine retina. The peptide sequence of CaN A subunit is consisted of 511 amino acid residues. A 10 amino acid (A-T-V-E-A-I-E-A-D-E-A) deletion before the autoinhibitory domain was observed in bovine retina CaN A compared to …

Dynamics of 1d granular column
This dissertation is focused on a discrete element study of the dynamics of a one- dimensional column of inelastic spheres that it subjected to taps by prescribing a half sine wave pulse to supporting floor. Contact interactions obey the Walton-Braun soft-sphere model in which the loading …

Effects of an External Field and Dissipation on Decoherence
Decoherence is the suppression of the interference of quantum states. It plays important roles in the study of the quantum-classical transition. It is also the major obstacle in the implementation of various schemes of quantum computers. Decoherence can be affected by many factors. The interactions …

Mechanisms and impact of alternative transposition-induced segmental duplications
<p>Segmental duplications are prevalent in both plant and animal genomes, and have played important roles in genome evolution. The focus of my project is to understand the transposition-mediated mechanisms that lead to the formation of segmental duplications, and the immediate impact of recently …

The Hard Road to Renewal: Media Representations of the Chinese Cultural Revolution.
In this thesis, I aim to explore how the Chinese Cultural Revolution has been represented in the media, mainly in films and television dramas, from the 1980s to the early 2010s. Drawing upon textual analysis, conjunctural analysis and the concept of articulation, I examine how the historical past …

A polyhedral-based systemc modeling and generation framework for effective low-power design space exploration
With the prevalence of systems-on-chips there is a growing need for automation and acceleration of the design process. A classical approach is to take a C/C++ specification of the application, convert it to a SystemC (or equivalent) description of hardware implementing this application, and perform …
