Computable Linear Orders and Turing Reductions
<p>This thesis explores computable linear orders through Turing Reductions and codes zero jump and zero double jump into linear orders using discrete, dense, and block linear relations.</p>

Macmahon's Master Theorem And Infinite Dimensional Matrix Inversion
… coefficients of certain power series defined by linear relations. We give a complete proof of MacMahon's Master Theorem based on MacMahon's original 1960 proof. We also study a specific infinite dimensional matrix inverse due to C. Krattenthaler.

Nonnegative Polynomials, Sums of Squares and the Cayley-Bacharach Theorem
… of squares is that these polynomials satisfy linear inequalities that arise from linear relations known as the Cayley-Bacharach relations.

Hydraulic Conductivity of GCLs Permeated With Inorganic Chemical Solutions
… could be identified. The same slopes of linear relations between hydraulic conductivity and effective pressure on a log k-log p plot indicates that varying the cation solution changes hydraulic conductivity, but variation does not change the slope of log k-log p relationships. From the …

The professionalization of continuing education: an application of Larson's model
… the application of Larson's model. Substantial linear relations were found between market control (dependent) and three independent variables. These findings provide a considerable body of evidence for supporting the validity of Larson's model of professionalization.

Wavelets Based on Second Order Linear Time Invariant Systems, Theory and Applications
… from the response of Second Order Underdamped Linear-Time-Invariant (SOULTI) systems, while the second is a generalization of the first to the complex domain and is similar to the Laplace transform kernel function. The first takes the acronym of SOULTI wavelet, while the second is named the …

Cryptanalysis of Selected Stream Ciphers
… a generalized birthday algorithm for finding linear relations in FCSRs. This algorithm applies to the most recent and general FCSR architecture, the ring FCSR, so it can be used for analyzing the FCSR of any FCSR-based design. We apply the algorithm to produce an efficient distinguisher for …

Money does not buy happiness… or does it? An investigation of the relationship between individual income and life satisfaction in the national income dynamics study
… from negative to positive. Studies exploring the relationship between individual income and life satisfaction have typically assumed a linear relationship between the two variables. However, there is evidence that the relationship may be more complex, following the discovery of non-linear …

Optimization Methods for Distribution Systems: Market Design and Resiliency Enhancement
… Complexities of these problems arise from non-linear relations, integer decision variables, scalability, and asynchronous information. On the resiliency side, existing models include optimization approaches that consider system's available information and neglect asynchrony of data arrival. As …

Floods, favors and fixes: the reproduction of vulnerability in Santa Fe, Argentina
… risk equation. I argue that the complex and non-linear relations between people and government, rather than the hazards themselves, produce the most damage precisely because they shape access to the physical, social and political protections that structure vulnerability. These relations also …

Modelling sustainable ecotourism development on the Coromandel Peninsula in Aotearoa / New Zealand; a holistic systems approach based on the idea of chaos and complexity in a human-activity system
… system constituents, the processes and relationships linking these elements, and their effects on subsets of the system as well as on the system as a whole. Structural and process analyses, as well as an aetiological account of the system’s variables, do justice to the experienced …

Advances in the application of passive down-draft evaporative cooling technology in the cooling of buildings
… independent variables that have significant relations with each dependent variable. A preliminary sampling process collected reasonable numbers of samples dealing with wide ranges of weather conditions and PDEC tower conditions. Additional samples were added using forward sampling methods so …

Modelling and inference in active systems
… central limit theorem, we find that to linear order both of these active systems can be described by the same process – the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. This is despite the fact that colloidal physics is concerned with microscopic scales, while epidemiological models operate on the scale …

Connecting simulations and observations in galaxy formation studies
… the SDSS observational techniques. We fit linear relations between the values derived directly from the simulations and following SDSS observational procedures, which in most of the cases have relatively high correlation, that can be easily used to more reliably compare simulations with …

The evaluation of different strategies to improve the diagnosis of tuberculosis in people living with HIV in resource-limited settings
… first used logistic regression, allowing for non-linear relations, to develop an extended CPM (using backwards selection of C-reactive protein [CRP] and other predictors) and a CRP-only CPM (which only included CRP along with spline transformations); we then used internal-external cross-validation …
