Common Structure Among Maximum Agreement Forests of Phylogenetic Trees
(2021-09-01)Reconciling sets of phylogenetic trees has become a problem of particular interest in both theoretical computer science and bioinformatics. The use of the maximum agreement forest as a tool by which to attain insight into ... -
Measuring Inter-Pulse Intervals in Sperm Whale Clicks: Development of an Automatic Method and its Potential for Identifying Eastern Caribbean Social Units
(2018-08-31)Sperm whale clicks have a unique multi-pulsed structure, where the inter-pulse interval (IPI) is related to body length. This feature makes passive acoustic monitoring especially informative for sperm whales. I investigated ... -
NLNG: A R Package for State Space Models
(2019-08-30)State space models require the ability to perform filtering, smoothing and prediction during analysis. To perform these procedures fairly complex computational algorithms are required. There is a consequent need for ... -
Range Searching Data Structures with Cache Locality
(2011-04-15)This thesis focuses on range searching data structures, an elementary problem in computational geometry with research spanning decades. These problems often involve very large data sets. Processor speeds increase faster ...
