Using metaproteomes and models to quantify cellular trade-offs in phytoplankton
(2021-12-16)Phytoplankton fuel biogeochemical processes in the ocean and are key players influencing the global climate. All biogeochemical processes mediated by microbes are ultimately underpinned by gene expression. In this thesis, ... -
Using minimum bootstrap support for splits to construct confidence regions for trees
(2006-2006)No abstract available. -
Using Named Entities in Post-click News Recommendation
(2016-08-05)With the growth of online news readers, many news websites use different signals to attract users' initial clicks. However, the problem of keeping users in the web site through post-click news recommendation is relatively ... -
USING NLP TO QUANTIFY THE EFFECTS OF NON-GAAP MEASURES TO PREDICT THE OUTCOME OF SECURITIES LAWSUITS
(2019-12-10)The Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is arguably the most tonal section of the reports provided to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. As part of that dialogue, companies use non-standardized financial ... -
Using observations and model simulations to characterize the effects of lateral intrusion events in Bedford Basin
(2023-12-01)The renewal of deep water in Bedford Basin (BB) is vital for its ventilation. The main ventilation mechanisms are winter convention and lateral intrusion events. However, a characterization of intrusion events has not yet ... -
USING PHYSICAL PRINCIPLES TO ENHANCE THE MEASUREMENT, INTERPRETATION AND UNDERSTANDING OF SOIL RESPIRATION
(2014-08-21)Atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) play an extremely important role in regulating Earth’s climate system. Researchers need to understand how GHGs are produced at a process-level in order to predict ... -
Using R and Latex to Develop Automated Wait Time Report Generator for Nova Scotia Screening Program
(2012-05-28)According to the Nova Scotia Breast Screening Program, with the presence of long waiting time lists there is an increasing need for automatic analysis methods to determine the causes of its existence. The AutoReport Generator ... -
Using Rescorla’s truly random control condition to measure truly exogenous covert orienting
(2021-07-28)Studies of exogenous covert orienting use peripheral cues (stimuli) that are spatially uninformative about the locations of subsequent targets. When the time course of the cue’s influence on performance is explored (by ... -
Using SCUBA to place upper limits on arcsecond scale CMB anisotropies at 850 microns
(1999-09-19)The SCUBA instrument on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope has already had an impact on cosmology by detecting relatively large numbers of dusty galaxies at high redshift. Apart from identifying well-detected sources, such ... -
Using Seismic Noise to Monitor COVID-19 Societal Response in Halifax
(2022-04)Seismometers record signals from more than just earthquakes. Cultural noise, high-frequency seismic noise generated from human activities (e.g., traffic) produces a distinct diurnal signature in frequencies above 1 Hz due ... -
Using small, temporary seismic networks for investigating tectonic deformation: Brittle deformation and evidence for strike-slip faulting in Bhutan
(2007-07)We processed data from a small, five-station temporary seismic network deployed from January 2002 until March 2003 within the Kingdom of Bhutan. We detected, associated, and located approximately 2,100 teleseismic, regional, ... -
USING SMARTPHONE TO PREVENT KEYLOGGING AND SHOULDER SURFING
(2017-12-12)Intruders have developed many methods to obtain sensitive information- some of the information is private and confidential such as username and password. Although strong cryptographic algorithms and authentication schemes ... -
Using Social Media Data to Improve Navigation within Websites
(2015-04-08)People often use navigation mechanisms such as menus, search, links and browser tools to find information within websites. The purpose of this research was to explore how user-generated content on social media can be used ... -
