General Sleep Parameters and Sleep Architecture in Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and their Typically Developing Peers.
(2012-08-23)Polysomnography (PSG) sleep studies that compare the sleep of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) to their typically developing (TD) peers have historically been highly inconsistent. Not only has ... -
The Generalizability of Dual N-Back Training in Younger Adults
(2014-12-16)Introduction: The popularity of cognitive training has increased in recent years. Accumulating evidence shows that training can sometimes improve trained and non-trained cognitive functions, and these improvements may be ... -
Generalization of Learning in Adolescents and Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder
(2016-08-31)Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental disorder, is defined by impairments in reciprocal social interaction, communication, and by the presence of restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, ... -
Generalized Supremum-enriched categories and their sheaves.
(Dalhousie University, 2002) -
Generalizing Fröberg's Theorem on Ideals with Linear Resolutions
(2013-11-07)In 1990, Fröberg presented a combinatorial classification of the quadratic square-free monomial ideals with linear resolutions. He showed that the edge ideal of a graph has a linear resolution if and only if the complement ... -
"Generally Fitt to be Trusted": Social Networks and the Moral Economies of Sugar Plantations in Early Anglo-Jamaica
(2015)This thesis argues that white residents in seventeenth-century Jamaica circulated within an economy of obligation, or an economic culture in which character, reputation and trust were vital, particularly as it related to ... -
Generating an Oasis: Architecture of Climatic Engagement for a Northern City
(2014-04-04)Edmonton, Alberta, like many other northern cities, has a history of overprotecting its citizens from the climatic elements. Through constructs of climate-control, like pedways and shopping malls, we have severed ourselves ... -
Generating and Analyzing Encrypted Traffic of Instant Messaging Applications: A Comprehensive Framework
(2023-04-28)Instant Messaging Applications (IMAs) are the primary communication tools for smartphone users. However, analyzing encrypted network traffic from IMAs poses challenges due to end-to-end encryption, user privacy, and dynamic ... -
Generating and measuring inhibition of return.
(Dalhousie University, 1998) -
GENERATING QUALIFIED PLANS FOR MULTIPLE QUERIES IN DATA STREAM SYSTEMS
(2017-12-18)Because stream processing applications operate under strict time constraints, most previous research focuses on enhancing real-time response by decreasing a single cost function. Although such research generates an optimal ... -
Generating Tools to Investigate Infant Leukemia Disease Biology and Identify New Therapies Through Rapid Drug Screening.
(2021-07-23)Infant Leukemia (IL) is a rare and aggressive congenital leukemia that is frequently caused by fusion genes involving lysine methyltransferase MLL (MLL1; KMT2A) and has a dismal prognosis. Further investigation into ... -
Generation and characterization of 4-vinylphenol and 1,2-diaryl enol radical cations in solution.
(Dalhousie University, 2006) -
Generation of a core set of items to develop classification criteria for scleroderma renal crisis (SRC) using consensus methodology
(2019-04-04)Background: Scleroderma Renal Crisis (SRC) is characterized by malignant hypertension and acute kidney injury. The absence of a gold standard or classification criteria for SRC has hindered research in this field. The ... -
Generation Of Cell-Penetrating Heme Oxygenase Proteins To Improve The Resistance Of Steatotic Livers To Reperfusion Injury Following Transplantation
(2013-06-18)Liver transplantation is the only life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease; however, organ availability is insufficient to meet demands. Steatotic livers are extended criteria donor (ECD) organs ... -
Generation of radical cations and carbocations by tris(bipyridyl)ruthenium photosensitization.
(Dalhousie University, 2004) -
GENERATION OF SUB-WAVELENGTH FAR AND NEAR-FIELD FOCUSING PATTERNS USING OPTICAL VECTOR BEAMS
(2020-07-30)Optical fields with complex spatial distribution are of great importance in various applications such as super-resolution imaging, laser nanofabrication, molecule or nanoparticle trapping and manipulation. This dissertation ... -
Generative Causal Modelling Techniques for Visual Model Explanation and Counterfactual Audio Generation
(2023-12-14)This thesis evaluates the effectiveness of two recent works in the area of nonlinear causal modelling, DeepSCM and ImageCFGen, in their ability to explain image classifiers and model audio data. First, techniques are ... -
Generative Morphology: Establishing Relief Networks in the Dynamic Taklamakan Desert
(2013-07-30)Desertification, the deterioration of productive and fertile lands into barren and desolate deserts, usually occurs as a result of deforestation, drought, or improper planting and agriculture. This thesis investigates ways ... -
Generators and Relations for Real Stabilizers
(2020-09-02)Real stabilizer operators, which are also known as real Clifford operators, are generated, through composition and tensor product, by the Hadamard gate, the Pauli Z gate, and the controlled-Z gate. We introduce a normal ... -
Generators And Relations for Some Classes of Quantum Circuits
(2023-08-30)We give three finite presentations in terms of generators and relations for three groups of operators. The operators are frequently used in quantum computation. The result can potentially be used to optimize quantum ...
