Psychosocial Factors, Maladaptive Cognitive Schemas, and Depression in Young Adults: An Integration
… moderator effect of the EMSs of self sacrifice, functional dependency/incompetence and abandonment. The prediction equation to the criterion of depression indicated independent contributions of stressful life events, and the EMSs of abandonment, functional dependency/incompetence, and …

Surface Realization Using a Featurized Syntactic Statistical Language Model
… thesis, a new language model based on featurized functional dependency syntax was developed and evaluated. Generation accuracies and cross-entropy for the new language model did not beat the comparison bigram language model.

Measuring Risks of Interdependencies in Enterprise Systems: An Application to Ghana’s Salt Enterprise
<p>This dissertation describes the use of Functional Dependency Network Analysis (FDNA) for modeling risks resulting from dependencies among elements of enterprise systems with application to salt processing enterprise in Ghana. FDNA was developed to model dependencies among members of enterprise …

The role of fuel in determining the high load limit of controlled auto-ignition engines
… the fuel chemistry was created so that different functional dependences of the ignition delay curve could be produced through adjustment of the model parameters. Then, the ignition delay curve was parameterized, and various artificial fuels were created. The artificial fuels were then tested in an …

The Resolution and Structure of High Reynolds Number Turbulent Boundary Layers Over Rough and Smooth Walls in Pressure Gradient
… placed in a wind tunnel section to determine the functional dependence of the boundary layer formation on pressure gradient. Particle image velocimetry (PIV) was the primary measurement technique used to determine time-resolved features of the velocity flow field. newline{}newline{} It is shown …

Stroke risk factors, outcomes and models of stroke care in a culturally and linguistically Diverse (CALD) elderly population.
… type were the main predictors for mortality and functional dependency at 12 months post-stroke (Chapter 3). Delirium occurred in one quarter of the elderly patient post-stroke and was also associated with a worse clinical outcome (Chapter 4). Risk factor management may be suboptimal in elderly …

Causal structure of networks of stochastic processes
… media sites. We study the statistical and functional dependencies in network of processes. Statistical dependencies can be encoded by directed information graphs (DIGs) and functional relationships using functional dependency graphs (FDGs), both of which are graphical models where nodes …

Healthcare consumption, experiences of care and test of and intervention in frail old people. Implications for case management
… study using case managers to older people with functional dependency and repeated healthcare contacts. Study I was qualitative and comprised 14 people (mean age 81) who were interviewed about their experiences of the healthcare and social services delivered to them. The results were analysed …

Falls and dizziness in frail older people. Predictors, experiences and the effects of a case management intervention
… 65+ years who lived in their ordinary homes with functional dependency and repeated health care contacts. The intervention included home visits by a nurse and a physiotherapist at least once a month during 12 months. Data from this study were used in two papers. Paper III investigated predictive …

New care home admission following acute hospitalisation: a mixed methods approach
… impairment (OR 2.14; 95%CI 1.24-3.70) and functional dependency (OR 2.06; 95%CI 1.58-2.69) were all associated with an increased risk of care home admission after hospitalisation. Despite international variation in service provision, only two studies described the model of care provided in …

Sustaining Glasgow's Urban Networks: the Link Communities of Complex Urban Systems
… their basic elements. Knowing the link (i.e. functional, or overlapping) communities of metropolitan Glasgow enabled me to evaluate the current level of communities interconnectedness and reveal the gaps as well as the potentials for improving the studied system’s performance. The complex …

Data profiling - efficient discovery of dependencies
… (INDs), unique column combinations (UCCs), and functional dependencies (FDs). If present, these statistics and structures serve to efficiently store, query, change, and understand the data. Most datasets, however, do not provide their metadata explicitly so that data scientists need to profile …
