Slice Sampling with Multivariate Steps
… Second, it presents a collection of new slice-sampling MCMC methods. These methods either adapt globally or use the adaptive crumb framework for sampling with multivariate steps. They perform well with minimal tuning on distributions when popular methods do not. Methods in the first group …

A Slice of Life's Passage
Society and popular culture present their ideas of perfection through the media. I wish to reinvent these standards in my art, to show the beauty of the ordinary and the grace of the flawed. Beauty, by definition, is that which gives intense aesthetic pleasure. I think that aesthetic pleasure can …

Slice sampling on Riemannian manifolds
This thesis is concerned with hybrid slice samplers for approximate sampling of distributions on Riemannian manifolds. First for distributions on the Euclidean unit sphere, and then for distributions on general Riemannian manifolds we introduce a geodesic-based hybrid slice sampler, called geodesic …

Shake Slice and Shake Concordant Links
… remain, especially for the class of shake slice knots. We extend the notion of shake concordance to links, generalizing much of what is known for knots, and offer a characterization in terms of link concordance and the infection of a link by a string link. We also discuss a number of …

On the regular slice spectral sequence
In this thesis, we analyze a variant of the slice spectral sequence of [HHR (or SSS) called the regular slice spectral sequence (or RSSS). This latter spectral sequence is defined using only the regular slice cells. We show that the regular slice tower of a spectrum is just the suspension of the …

Die Darstellung des Felsenbeins in der Multi-Slice-CT - ein qualitativer Vergleich mit der Single-Slice-CT
Die anatomisch hoch auflösende Computertomographie zählt zu den Standard-techniken bei der Untersuchung des Felsenbeins. Um die feinen Strukturen klar abgrenzen zu können, sind Aufnahmen in axialer und koronarer Ebene nötig. Es ist prinzipiell möglich, die koronare Ebene aus axialen Datensätzen zu …

A Little Slice Of The Moon: Stories
A Little Slice of the Moon: stories is a collection of short stories that explore the struggles of various characters to find their place in the world. And the world, despite its familiarity, can be a hostile place. The characters in this collection learn that families are a fragile lot, that every …

Modelling neuroimmune interactions using organotypic slice cultures
… using the model of organotypic hippocampal slice cultures; an in vitro model that overcomes the previously mentioned obstacles. The study sought to expound on immunological and electrophysiological responses to the infection. A viable and moderate BCG infection was established in the …

Cauchy Slice Holography and the Semiclassical Approximation
… define a holographic theory that lives on Cauchy slices of the Lorentzian bulk. (More generally, for an arbitrary Hamiltonian constraint equation that closes, we show how to obtain it by an irrelevant deformation from a CFT with suitable anomalies.) The partition function of this theory defines a …

Quaternionic slice regular functions on domains without real points
… thesis I've explored the theory of quaternionic slice regular functions. More precisely I've studied some rigidity properties, some differential issues and an application in complex differential geometry. This application concerns the constructions and classifications of orthogonal complex …

Mirroring Ghanaian society through slice-of-life radio advertisements
… characteristics of a genre that is often termed 'slice-of-life' and that is popular with advertising producers. Slice-of-life adverts seek to represent a version of real life: specifically, the social reality of the target audience for the advert. I discuss how this represents a challenge to …

Slice-selective parallel transmit magnetic resonance imaging at 7T
Ultra-high field (UHF) Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 7 Tesla and beyond provides gains in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), enabling faster and higher-resolution imaging. However, UHF MRI comes with significant technical challenges, especially radiofrequency (RF, or B+1 ) field inhomogeneity which …

A novel magnetically levitated interior permanent magnet slice motor
… magnetically levitated interior permanent magnet slice motor. This design is targeted for use as a blood pump in extracorporeal life support (ECLS) applications. A magnetically levitated blood pump reduces the risk of blood damage that frequently occurs at the blood seal in a conventional pump due …

Froggy People: Anthropomorphism and Slice-of-Life in Autobiographical Comics

Slice implies mutant ribbon for odd 5-stranded pretzel knots
<p>The Slice-Ribbon Conjecture, posed by Fox in 1966, is a long-standing open conjecture that posits that every slice knot is a ribbon knot. It is known and easily seen that every ribbon knot is a slice knot, implying that the conjecture is really a statement about the equivalence of the two …

Liquid Sodium Stratication Prediction and Simulation in a Two-Dimensional Slice
