description: Computer-aided diagnosis in healthcare involves collecting comprehensive health-related information about patients from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and modelling the tabular data with appropriate data-driven approaches. By harnessing the power of EHRs, decision support systems can be developed to assist healthcare providers in making informed decisions, optimizing resource allocation, and ultimately reducing the cost of treatment. However, the laborious pre-processing steps on EHR data, such as imputing missing values, dimensionality reduction etc. and domain-specific feature engineering, hinder the model's transparency and interpretability. For example, making assumptions or using statistical methods to estimate the missing data points introduces uncertainty in interpreting the model's designing approach and to understanding how it arrived at its conclusions. In addition, conducting obscure feature engineering tasks without domain knowledge may lead to the loss of relevant features; limiting the model's ability to provide meaningful insights about the domain or make reliable predictions. To alleviate the above-prevailing challenges, this thesis proposes a method to represent the tabular EHR data in 2D images without leveraging any pre-processing or data cleaning tasks, which results in a generalized visual representation of EHR tabular data. Moreover, the proposed method is assessed by predicting cardiovascular disease, Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) using deep convolutional neural networks (VGG-19, ResNet-50, DenseNet-121, and Inception-V3) to demonstrate its effectiveness compared to existing diagnosis techniques. The EHR data associated with the disease are collected from a publicly available, extensive MIMIC-III database, which consists of de-identified EHR data of over 40,000 patients who stayed in the ICU. The results evaluated on the dataset reveal that the highest performance was achieved by integrating an attention module with a pre-trained ResNet-50 model, which achieved a test accuracy of 82\% with precision=0.86, recall=0.88, F1 score=0.87, and Area Under Curve (AUC)=0.81. The outcome demonstrates that the proposed method can perform highly in SCA prediction without missing value imputation and allow for more comprehensibility with less human expert intervention.

description: Measurement of redshift-space distortions (RSD) offers an attractive method to directly probe the cosmic growth history of density perturbations. A distribution function approach where RSD can be written as a sum over density weighted velocity moment correlators has recently been developed. We use Nbody simulations to investigate the individual contributions and convergence of this expansion for dark matter. If the series is expanded as a function of powers of mu, cosine of the angle between the Fourier mode and line of sight, there are a finite number of terms contributing at each order. We present these terms and investigate their contribution to the total as a function of wavevector k. For mu^2 the correlation between density and momentum dominates on large scales. Higher order corrections, which act as a Finger-of-God (FoG) term, contribute 1% at k~0.015h/Mpc, 10% at k~0.05h/Mpc at z=0, while for k>0.15h/Mpc they dominate and make the total negative. These higher order terms are dominated by density-energy density correlations which contribute negatively to the power, while the contribution from vorticity part of momentum density auto-correlation is an order of magnitude lower. For mu^4 term the dominant term on large scales is the scalar part of momentum density auto-correlation, while higher order terms dominate for k>0.15h/Mpc. For mu^6 and mu^8 we find it has very little power for k<0.15h/Mpc. We also compare the expansion to the full 2D P^ss(k,mu) as well as to their multipoles. For these statistics an infinite number of terms contribute and we find that the expansion achieves percent level accuracy for kmu<0.15h/Mpc at 6th order, but breaks down on smaller scales because the series is no longer perturbative. We explore resummation of the terms into FoG kernels, which extend the convergence up to a factor of 2 in scale. We find that the FoG kernels are approximately Lorentzian.

description: A plasmid construct expressing the p66 version of the human immunodeficiency virus reverse transcriptase as a bacterial fusion protein was subjected to in vitro mutagenesis, and the resulting variant proteins were assayed to define the locations of the two major enzymatic activities. The DNA polymerase activity was localized to the N-terminal portion of the protein; mutations altering or eliminating the C-terminal portion had little or no effect on that activity. The results suggest that, in contrast with previous reports, the p51 subunit found in virions should exhibit DNA polymerase activity. Mutations in many parts of the protein eliminated RNase H activity, suggesting that several areas are needed for proper folding and generation of that activity.

description: It has long been considered that the important biological effects of ionizing radiation are a direct consequence of unrepaired or misrepaired DNA damage occurring in the irradiated cells. It was presumed that no effect would occur in cells in the population that receive no direct radiation exposure. However, in vitro evidence generated over the past two decades has indicated that non-targeted cells in irradiated cell cultures also experience significant biochemical and phenotypic changes that are often similar to those observed in the targeted cells. Further, nontargeted tissues in partial body-irradiated rodents also experienced stressful effects, including oxidative and oncogenic effects. This phenomenon, termed the “bystander response,” has been postulated to impact both the estimation of health risks of exposure to low doses/low fluences of ionizing radiation and the induction of second primary cancers following radiotherapy. Several mechanisms involving secreted soluble factors, oxidative metabolism, gap-junction intercellular communication, and DNA repair, have been proposed to regulate radiation-induced bystander effects. The latter mechanisms are major mediators of the system responses to ionizing radiation exposure, and our knowledge of the biochemical and molecular events involved in these processes is reviewed in this chapter.

description: An experimental investigation into the vortex induced vibrations (VIV) of a circular cylinder under scour conditions was conducted. These conditions replicate river crossings of exposed pipelines. The thesis focuses on developing a model to predict the VIV response, and the characterization and flow evolution of the scour VIV response. The development of the model involves the calibration of a coupled two-equation model for a large VIV dataset from a one degree of freedom (1DOF) elastically mounted rigid cylinder in an open free stream that spans across a range of mass, damping, and flow velocities. This experiment was conducted in a water channel where cylinder displacement and force data were collected. The model adequately predicts the lock-in reduced velocity range and oscillation amplitudes. Its empirical coefficients are related to the mass, damping, and flow velocity, improving the prediction capability over previous models. A second data set was collected to address the characterization of VIV response and flow development under scour conditions. In particular, the experiments had one structural configuration with the 1DOF cylinder placed adjacent to different rigid flat and curved boundaries based on the profiles found in past scour studies. The collected data includes displacement, force, and Particle Image Velocity (PIV) measurements across a wide range of flow velocities. The data was processed to produce oscillation amplitude and lift responses, oscillation frequency contour maps, and a Low Order Representation (LOR) of the flow field through a Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) analysis. The results show that the boundary modifies the VIV response in terms of lock-in range, oscillation amplitude, lift, and the appearance of new regimes when compared to the open free stream case. The LOR flow fields reveal the boundary layer coupling with the formation and shedding timing of the cylinder’s vortices, leading to the changes in the response. The results of this investigation aid in understanding the possible oscillation characteristics that submerged structures such as exposed pipelines in riverbeds exhibit. These characteristics inform the design and monitoring of these systems by relating the flow and structural conditions to the expected oscillation response.

description: The appearance of drug-resistant strains of viral pathogens is a major difficulty confounding current efforts to block viral infections. The identification and analysis of mutations responsible for drug resistance can provide important clues helpful in understanding the mechanisms of resistance and in the eventual development of better therapies. We have used a direct screening method to scan libraries of mutagenized genes encoding the reverse transcriptase of human immunodeficiency virus type 1, and have recovered a variant enzyme that is resistant to the chain-terminator inhibitor 2',3'-dideoxyguanosine triphosphate. The single substitution mutation in this variant conferred broad crossresistance to a variety of other antiviral compounds currently in clinical trials. Virus carrying the mutation was fully infectious in cultured human lymphocytes. The replication of the mutant virus was highly resistant to phosphonoformic acid but did not show increased resistance to the prodrug dideoxyguanosine.

Clustering in large networks does not promote upstream reciprocity

description: Upstream reciprocity (also called generalized reciprocity) is a putative mechanism for cooperation in social dilemma situations with which players help others when they are helped by somebody else. It is a type of indirect reciprocity. Although upstream reciprocity is often observed in experiments, most theories suggest that it is operative only when players form short cycles such as triangles, implying a small population size, or when it is combined with other mechanisms that promote cooperation on their own. An expectation is that real social networks, which are known to be full of triangles and other short cycles, may accommodate upstream reciprocity. In this study, I extend the upstream reciprocity game proposed for a directed cycle by Boyd and Richerson to the case of general networks. The model is not evolutionary and concerns the conditions under which the unanimity of cooperative players is a Nash equilibrium. I show that an abundance of triangles or other short cycles in a network does little to promote upstream reciprocity. Cooperation is less likely for a larger population size even if triangles are abundant in the network. In addition, in contrast to the results for evolutionary social dilemma games on networks, scale-free networks lead to less cooperation than networks with a homogeneous degree distribution.

Enhanced piezoelectric drop-on-demand cell dispensing through neutral buoyancy

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Micro dispensing of cell based suspensions offers enhanced precision and accuracy for a wide variety of applications including high throughput cell based assays, single cell analyses and tissue engineering. One technology that offers such promises is piezoelectric inkjet printing. However, the small size scale of internal system features makes it difficult to eject particle based suspensions due to undesirable phenomena within the suspension. In particular, it has been hypothesized that inkjet dispensing of cell based suspensions has been hindered by sedimentation and aggregation of cells. The objective of this thesis was to investigate the phenomenon of cellular sedimentation and determine whether it affects piezoelectric dispensing reliability, and to devise a method to mitigate this phenomenon. The challenge in stabilizing suspensions to halt sedimentation lies in constraints involving cellular viability, and the rheological limitations imposed by the capability of the inkjet system itself. We achieved stabilized cellular suspensions through the use of a sucrose co-polymer, Ficoll-PM400. We show herein that stabilizing the suspension to be dispensed through this method greatly improves the reliability of the system over long periods of time, and increases the consistency of cell counts. Cell viability was shown to remain constant even when suspended for periods of 1 hour. The change in viscosity of the suspension also decreased the amount of clogging events that have hampered particle based inkjet dispensing approaches. Lastly, we give recommendations regarding future work on this technology.

description: We have recently described a nonnucleoside compound that specifically inhibits the reverse transcriptase of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), the causative agent of AIDS. This compound, nevirapine (BI-RG-587), interacts with highly conserved tyrosine residues at positions 181 and 188 in the reverse transcriptase to inhibit the recombinant enzyme and virus replication in cell culture with 50% inhibitory concentrations in the 40 nM range. HIV-1 variants resistant to nevirapine emerged with passage in cell culture in the presence of drug. This resistant phenotype was stable with continued passage in the absence of drug. These mutants had a substitution of cysteine for the tyrosine at position 181. Introduction of this mutation into the recombinant enzyme increased the inhibitory concentration of nevirapine 100-fold. Substitution of cysteine for tyrosine at residue 181 into the wild-type viral genome conferred a similar reduction in susceptibility to nevirapine. Mutants were also resistant to a tetrahydroimidazo[4,5,1-jk][1,4]benzodiazepin-2(1H)-one and -thione derivative and two 6-phenylthiouracil derivatives but retained their sensitivity to the other reverse transcriptase inhibitors, 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine and foscarnet.

description: This paper reviews the characteristics of the international incursions by banks since the early 1990s, examines the implications of the US subprime meltdown crisis and ensuing credit crunch for the pursuit of international banking activities, and provides a conceptual framework to help banks assess strategic decisions regarding the scope of their international operations in the years to come. We conclude that international banks, while remaining loyal to universal banking in terms of scope of activities, should become increasingly selective regarding the international reach of each and all components of their financial services offering portfolio.

description: We have introduced a substitution mutation into the c-abl locus of murine embryonic stem cells by homologous recombination between exogenously added DNA and the endogenous gene. Model constructs were initially generated that consisted of a promoterless selectable neomycin resistance marker inserted into the v-abl gene of the complete Abelson murine leukemia virus genome, designed to be expressed either as a fusion protein or by translational restart. Tests of these viral genomes for transmission of v-abl and neo markers showed more stable coexpression in a protein fusion construct. The neo fusion was subcloned from this v-abl construct into a promoterless c-abl fragment, and the resulting DNA was used to transform embryonic stem cells. Direct screening of genomic DNAs showed that a high proportion of drug-resistant clones arose from homologous recombination into the endogenous c-abl locus.

The Role and Regulation of Hemoglobin Mass in Endurance Exercise

description: Endurance performance relies on sustained oxygen delivery to skeletal muscles. Consequently, the maximum capacity to deliver oxygen is closely related to the total amount of hemoglobin (Hb) in the circulation, hemoglobin mass (Hbmass). Experimental reduction of Hbmass results in lowered oxygen delivery in maximal exercise and hence a lower maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O2max). At submaximal intensities, compensatory adjustments can be employed in response to Hbmass reduction to maintain oxygen delivery, potentially lessening the impact on intensities below V̇O2max; however, data relating to these effects are lacking. While females have a lower [Hb] and lower Hbmass than males, the influence of sex on hematological properties has not been thoroughly investigated. In addition, the regulation of Hb turnover in endurance training is poorly understood, owing to methodological limitations. The purpose of this thesis was to expand on the current understanding about the role and regulation of Hbmass in facilitating endurance exercise. In Study 1 (n=16), reducing effective [Hb] by ~5% using low-dose carbon monoxide inhalation destabilized the maximal lactate steady state. This effect was more prominent in trained individuals, suggesting higher sensitivity to impairments in oxygen delivery. In Study 2 (n=17), Hbmass was reduced by withdrawal of 7% of blood volume through phlebotomy. In a 60-min exercise bout, ventilation, lactate, and heart rate were increased in a time-dependent manner, and time-to-task failure in a subsequent maximal task was reduced. Study 3 explored sex-differences in a pooled analysis (n=79) of four datasets. This cross-sectional study revealed that, due to sex differences in hematological variables, females must achieve a similar fat-free mass-normalized V̇O2max with a lower Hbmass than males. Study 4 (n=5) piloted the use of deuterated water as a metabolic label to quantify the fractional synthetic rate (FSR) of Hb in vivo. The preliminary data showed that this 28-day protocol was feasible and yielded expected FSR values (<1%∙day-1). Future research should explore the mechanisms behind impaired submaximal exercise performance after reduced oxygen delivery; how males and females employ specific strategies to reach a given oxygen uptake; and how Hb synthesis is influenced by sex and regulated in response to exercise training.

description: We explain when the first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations for black holes (and domain walls) in (gauged) supergravity, reduce to the usual first-order equations derived from a fake superpotential. This turns out to be equivalent to the vanishing of a newly found constant of motion and we illustrate this with various examples. We show that fake supersymmetry is a necessary condition for having physically sensible extremal black hole solutions. We furthermore observe that small black holes become scaling solutions near the horizon. When combined with fake supersymmetry, this leads to a precise extension of the attractor mechanism to small black holes: The attractor solution is such that the scalars move on specific curves, determined by the black hole charges, that are purely geodesic, although there is a non-zero potential.

description: We investigate the effects of layered quenched disorder on the behavior of planar magnets, superfluids, and superconductors by performing large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations of a three-dimensional randomly layered XY model. Our data provide numerical evidence for the recently predicted anomalously elastic (sliding) intermediate phase between the conventional high-temperature and low-temperature phases. In this intermediate phase, the spin-wave stiffness perpendicular to the layers vanishes in the thermodynamic limit while the stiffness parallel to the layers as well as the spontaneous magnetization are nonzero. In addition, the susceptibility displays unconventional finite-size scaling properties. We compare our Monte-Carlo results with the theoretical predictions, and we discuss possible experiments in ultracold atomic gases, layered superconductors and in nanostructures.

description: There are many algorithms for computing all elliptic curves of a given conductor. However, for large conductors, this task becomes increasingly more difficult. In this thesis, we will be investigating each of these algorithms for the purposes of finding the most efficient way to find all elliptic curves with respect to computation time. We propose a technique which fuses two of these methods. We will also provide some examples which would be beyond the reasonable scope of any single method, but which our fusion handles with ease.

description: We study a family of Lie algebras {hO} which are defined for cyclic operads O. Using his graph homology theory, Kontsevich identified the homology of two of these Lie algebras (corresponding to the Lie and associative operads) with the cohomology of outer automorphism groups of free groups and mapping class groups of punctured surfaces, respectively. In this paper we introduce a hairy graph homology theory for O. We show that the homology of hO embeds in hairy graph homology via a trace map which generalizes the trace map defined by S. Morita. For the Lie operad we use the trace map to find large new summands of the abelianization of hO which are related to classical modular forms for SL(2,Z). Using cusp forms we construct new cycles for the unstable homology of Out(F_n), and using Eisenstein series we find new cycles for Aut(F_n). For the associative operad we compute the first homology of the hairy graph complex by adapting an argument of Morita, Sakasai and Suzuki, who determined the complete abelianization of hO in the associative case.
description: Some typos fixed. In an earlier version, we had made a conjecture about the image of the trace map, which we have proven and will be included in a future paper. Some comments in this paper have been changed to reflect this. To appear in J. Top
First World Women, Third World Revolutions:  The Nicaragua and Cuban Revolutions as Reflections of the Trajectory of the Feminist Movement in the United States in the late 20th Century

Revolution (Cuba : 1959)
Revolution (Nicaragua : 1979)

description: This thesis works to elucidate the ways in which the Cuban and Nicaraguan Revolutions were intellectually productive and imaginative spaces for Western feminists to think through questions of patriarchy and the intersections of gender and class.

I argue that the trajectory of the second-wave feminist movement in the United States was reflected in and influenced by the writings of American feminists on the Cuban and Nicaraguan Revolutions.

During the decade after the Cuban Revolution those writing were increasingly concerned with Cuban women’s integration into the Cuban economy. Such a concern was indicative of an ideological framework that understood material, economic change as the catalyst for political and cultural change, and I believe was reflective of the beginning of the second-wave feminist movement concerned with “the problem that has no name”, equal rights, and the integration of American housewives into the waged workforce. By the time the Nicaraguan Revolution was won in 1979, these writers pronounced Cuban women’s position as fundamentally unchanged: economic change did not produce cultural change necessarily.

Subsequently, in the Nicaraguan experiment, writings of these select women reflect a broader American feminist concern with the nature of power and autonomy: distinctions between “feminine” and “feminist” goals, reproductive rights and sexual Revolution in the ‘80s and ‘90s as the women's liberation movement evolved to understand the intersections of gender, race, sexuality and class.
Close Companions to Young Stars. I. A Large Spectroscopic Survey in Chamaeleon I and Taurus-Auriga

description: We present the results of a multiplicity survey of 212 T Tauri stars in the Chamaeleon I and Taurus-Auriga star-forming regions, based on high-resolution spectra from the Magellan Clay 6.5 m telescope. From these data, we achieved a typical radial velocity precision of ~80 m/s with slower rotators yielding better precision, in general. For 174 of these stars, we obtained multi-epoch data with sufficient time baselines to identify binaries based on radial velocity variations. We identified eight close binaries and four close triples, of which three and two, respectively, are new discoveries. The spectroscopic multiplicity fractions we find for Cha I (7%) and Tau-Aur (6%) are similar to each other, and to the results of field star surveys in the same mass and period regime. However, unlike the results from imaging surveys, the frequency of systems with close companions in our sample is not seen to depend on primary mass. Additionally, we do not find a strong correlation between accretion and close multiplicity. This implies that close companions are not likely the main source of the accretion shut down observed in weak-lined T Tauri stars. Our results also suggest that sufficient radial velocity precision can be achieved for at least a subset of slowly rotating young stars to search for hot Jupiter planets.

description: We present a numerical study of spatially quasi-periodic gravity-capillary waves of finite depth in both the initial value problem and travelling wave settings. We adopt a quasi-periodic conformal mapping formulation of the Euler equations, where one-dimensional quasi-periodic functions are represented by periodic functions on a higher-dimensional torus. We compute the time evolution of free surface waves in the presence of a background flow and a quasi-periodic bottom boundary and observe the formation of quasi-periodic patterns on the free surface. Two types of quasi-periodic travelling waves are computed: small-amplitude waves bifurcating from the zero-amplitude solution and larger-amplitude waves bifurcating from finite-amplitude periodic travelling waves. We derive weakly nonlinear approximations of the first type and investigate the associated small-divisor problem. We find that waves of the second type exhibit striking nonlinear behaviour, e.g. the peaks and troughs are shifted non-periodically from the corresponding periodic waves due to the activation of quasi-periodic modes.

Ethnology
Ethnomusicology

description: In this article, we expand conceptually upon approaches in cultural musicology and ethnomusicology that conceive of music in terms of shifting textual signs and performances of cultural meaning. Our aim is to propose some new ways of considering music in terms of relational events, doing, and becoming. We ask: what if music does more than symbolically mediate and represent worlds? What if music constantly comes into being and does things as part of intrinsically messy realities that consist of relations between a variety of processes and things: vibrations, sounds, sensations and feelings, human bodies and minds, non–human entities, words and meanings, spaces, movements and materialities, (re)arrangements of social organization and power, and more? How might our conceptions of music, on the one hand, and our methodological stances, on the other, reconfigure if we harness this kind of relational and inherently heterogeneous occurring as a starting point?

Our questions are inspired by the process thinking of French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari and by the work of latter–day theorists who develop this thinking, such as Rosi Braidotti, Claire Colebrook, Rebecca Coleman, Elizabeth Grosz, and Brian Massumi. Deleuze and Guattari’s work can be regarded as an effort to contest transcendent ways of thinking. Deleuze and Guattari pursue this aim by aspiring to an ontology that is not grounded upon being but upon the processuality or primary dynamism of reality. In his early sole–authored work Difference and Repetition, Deleuze equates being with becoming by stating that identities only emerge from repetition as difference: “Returning is thus the only identity . . . ; the identity of difference, the identical which belongs to the different, or turns around the different” (1994, 41). This to say that things—whether human subjects, philosophical ideas, or musical formations—are not founded on an essence. Their being, or identity, consists in their processual, and thereby inevitably varying, situationally actualizing, open–ended existence. Being is the effect of (the return of) difference rather than difference being the effect of being (see, for e.g., Deleuze 1994, 41, 55). The order between being and becoming gets overturned. Better put, the category of being loses explanatory power and dissolves into becoming. It is, indeed, becoming that will figure and be elaborated as the guiding concept of our theoretical reflections in this article, illuminated by examples drawn from our recent ethnographic work.
