EPIDEMIOLOGICAL CRITERIA AND DEEP CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS FOR EFFICIENT SELECTION OF CULTIVARS AGAINST THE WHEAT BLAST DISEASE
Creators: name: Campos, Mariela Sofia Fernandez
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Plant pathology

description: Wheat blast, a disease caused by the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae pathotype Triticum, threatens global wheat production. Limited epidemiological information makes the wheat blast disease hard to contain and control, and without data, recommendations about the selection and deployment of resistant cultivars remain a challenge. Besides, cultivar selection relies on human visual disease evaluations, which can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subjective. We hypothesized that epidemiological parameters could be relevant to support wheat blast breeding tactics, and reliable visual estimates paired with images of wheat spike blast could be used to train deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) models for disease severity classification. To test these hypotheses, we focused on the following objectives: 1) to evaluate ten cultivars for wheat blast resistance under field conditions using epidemiological parameters, and 2) develop accurate and reliable DCNN models to classify wheat spike blast severity under controlled conditions. For objective 1, we evaluated wheat leaf blast and wheat spike blast severity and estimated the total area under the disease progress curve (tAUDPC), final disease severity, and epidemic type. Disease progress curves of ten cultivars were fitted by the logistic (R2=0.70-0.96) and Gompertz (R2=0.64-0.94) models, pointing out to polycyclic epidemics. We concluded that tAUDPC, disease progression rate, and final disease severity could support cultivar selection for wheat blast resistance. For objective 2, wheat spike blast severity was visually estimated, and Red Green Blue images were acquired from six cultivars with various resistance levels under controlled conditions. Severity estimations were paired with each wheat spike image and created two datasets. Dataset 1 (n=5,123) included maturing and non-matured wheat spikes, and Dataset 2 (n=4,509) had only non-matured spikes. Each dataset was analyzed for inter-rater agreement between disease severity estimation of two pathologists and disease measurements of Image J, then classified by severity categories to train and test the DCNN model. The model trained with only non-matured spikes had higher precision (0.90-0.95), F-1 (0.87-0.95), and recall (0.84-0.96) than the model trained with maturing and non-matured spikes (0.75-0.95, 0.79-0.95, and 0.74-0.96, respectively). We concluded that the trained DCNN model could be used as the basis of a phenotyping tool for wheat spike blast severity classification.

description: Le nouveau Paris des années 1930 cherche son Haussmann. André Morizet, maire de Boulogne-Billancourt, aspire à prendre la tête d’un haut-commissariat de la région parisienne, pourvu de larges attributions, ou tout du moins d’un organisme susceptible d’orienter l’aménagement de la région parisienne en formation. Apparaissant comme l’un des premiers hommes politiques républicains, de surcroît de gauche, à réhabiliter Haussmann comme l’homme du changement d’échelle, il cherche à incarner l’homme providentiel. Avec l’arrivée au pouvoir du Front populaire, Morizet caresse l’espoir d’une nomination comme haut-commissaire ou comme ministre des Travaux publics. Le « retour » de la politique et les délicates relations de Morizet avec Blum et Sellier en décident autrement. Morizet est en fait nommé tardivement président du Comité supérieur d’aménagement et d’organisation générale de la région parisienne (CSAORP) aux attributions très limitées. L'article montre les ambitions contrariées du maire de Boulogne-Billancourt à la tête du CSAORP jusqu'en 1942.

title: Bilderverbot: Adorno and the Ban on Images
Creators: name: Truskolaski, Sebastian
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Adorno, Frankfurt School, Critical Theory, Aesthetics

description: My thesis examines the significance of Theodor W. Adorno’s recurrent reference to the Old Testament ban on making images of God: the ‘Bilderverbot’. In particular I focus on three facets of this figure that occur at prominent junctures of Adorno’s work: his ‘imageless materialism’ (Chapter One), his ‘inverse theology’ (Chapter Two) and his ‘negative aesthetics’ (Chapter Three). In each case I argue that Adorno strips the image ban of its religious associations and enlists it in the service of a broadly Marxian critique of capitalist modernity. The ban on picturing the absolute is rendered as a ban on pre-determining a future in which all historical antagonisms are reconciled. As Adorno argues, only an unflinching criticism of the present can throw into relief the contours of an ‘imageless’ Utopia. I approach Adorno’s writings with a view to his sources, many of which contain notable references to the image ban that span the history of modern German thought. They include: Marx and Lukács, Benjamin and Bloch, Kant and Hegel, as well as Hölderlin, Kafka and Schoenberg. By emphasising these elective affinities, I aim to shed light on Adorno’s singular application of the figure of the image ban to his critical project. In this regard, I hope to dispense with certain prevalent characterisations of Adorno as a quietistic aesthete advanced by critics such as Habermas, Taubes and Agamben. Far from designating a merely historical curio, I argue that Adorno’s singular appropriation of the image ban serves as a potent model for thinking an aesthetics of resistance in the present.

Structured Epidemiological Models with Applications to COVID-19, Ebola, and Childhood-Diseases
Creators: name: Ponce, Joan L
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Biological mathematics

description: Public health policies increasingly rely on complex models that need to approximate epidemics realistically and be consistent with the available data. Choosing appropriate simplifying assumptions is one of the critical challenges in disease modeling. In this thesis, we focus on some of these assumptions to show how they impact model outcomes. In this thesis, an ODE model with a gamma-distributed infectious period is studied and compared with an exponentially distributed infectious period. We show that, for childhood diseases, isolating infected children is a possible mechanism causing oscillatory behavior in incidence. This is shown analytically by identifying a Hopf bifurcation with the isolation period as the bifurcation parameter. The threshold value for isolation to generate sustained oscillations from the model with gamma-distributed isolation period is much more realistic than the exponentially distributed model.
The consequences of not modeling the spectrum of clinical symptoms of the 2014 Ebola outbreak in Liberia include overestimating the basic reproduction number and effectiveness of control measures. The outcome of this model is compared with those of models with typical symptoms, excluding moderate ones. Our model captures the dynamics of the recent outbreak of Ebola in Liberia better, and the basic reproduction number is more consistent with the WHO response team's estimate. Additionally, the model with only typical symptoms overestimates the basic reproduction number and effectiveness of control measures and exaggerates changes in peak size attributable to interventions' timing.

Subjects: Mechanical engineering not elsewhere classified

description: With the exponential rise in manufacturing and usage of Li-ion batteries (LIBs) in the last decade, a huge quantity of spent LIBs is getting scrapped every year. Along with the efforts to making more capable and safer batteries over the last three decades, there is an immediate need for recycling these scrapped batteries. Most of these batteries typically use lithium manganese oxide (LMO), lithium cobalt oxide (LCO), lithium iron phosphate (LFP), and lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) cathode chemistries, and developing a technique towards regenerating these cathodes can ensure huge economic and environmental benefits for the present and future. This research focuses on a set of direct regeneration techniques with the goal of regenerating used cathode materials to be reused in LIBs. Used Apple iPad2 batteries with LCO chemistry and Nissan LEAF batteries with a combination of LMO-NMC chemistry are selected for this research. The scope of research can be divided into two parts as liberation/separation of cathode material and regeneration of liberated cathode. The liberation/separation process is carried out with the aid of ultrasonication and organic solvents with the objective being keeping the morphology and chemical composition intact for a better quality of the material. The regeneration process uses a hydrothermal technique with variations of parameters. 1:1 and 1:5 molar ratios between cathode material and a lithium lithiation agent are chosen to understand the effects of the molar ratio on cathode regeneration. In addition, the effects of processing solution (water vs. a solvent) are examined by replacing water with TEG. The effects of heat treatment on cathode regeneration are also investigated by observing phase changes of materials at different temperatures.

description:
Aim: Before population screening of 'healthy' individuals is widely adopted, it is important to consider the harms and benefits of receiving positive results and how harms and benefits may differ by age. Subjects & methods: Participants in a preventive genomic screening study were screened for 17 genes associated with 11 conditions. We interviewed 11 participants who received positive results. Results: Interviewees expressed little concern about their positive results in light of their older age, the risk condition for which they tested positive, or other pressing health concerns. Conclusion: Researchers and clinicians should recognize that returning positive results may not have the impact they presume given the diversity of the conditions screened and those who choose to undergo screening.

Subjects: Mechanical engineering not elsewhere classified

description: 7ABSTRACTAs the energy consumption for thermal comfort and space cooling around the world continues to grow due to a steadily increasing demand and climate change; the use of vapor compression technology, has increased significantly. In this technology, condensation is used to condense out the water vapor from air by maintaining the coils at a cooler temperature than required to meet the sensible load. This results in a high energy consumption for dehumidification and lowers the overall efficiency of the system. They also pose environmental threats due to its significant CO2 emissions.
The aim of this research is to address the above problems by using a novel membrane configuration called as a membrane heat exchanger that has integrated cooling coils and simultaneously cools and dehumidifies the air stream with the help of a vacuum pump and a vapor selective membrane.
In this work, the CFD modeling and design of a membrane heat exchanger is presented. The model is developed for a base case to study the heat and mass transfer performance of the system. The model after validation with existing studies is developed further to obtain several contour plots to understand the effects of concentration polarization, membrane permeance, Reynolds number, pressure drop and other design parameters on the performance of the system.

VISION-BASED LIFTING LOAD ESTIMATION FOR PREVENTING LIFTING INJURIES
Creators: name: Zhou, Guoyang
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Engineering practice

description: Heavy and repetitive lifting tasks are commonly observed across many industries; however, the poor ergonomics of these tasks contribute to work-related musculoskeletal injuriesworldwide. Identifying when these tasks increase injury risks is essential for reducing workplace injuries. Current injury risk assessment tools require trained ergonomists to measureworker posture, task repetition, and force exertion. While repetition and posture are easilyobservable, the level of force exerted by the worker remains difficult to estimate without intrusive measurement techniques such as surface Electromyography(sEMG) sensors. In studyA, a video-based method for lifting risk estimation that can measure injury risks due to varying force levels without the need for intrusive sensors is proposed. The proposed method isdemonstrated with lifting tasks commonly observed in the workplace. The method consistsof a novel set of computer vision algorithms that monitor workers’ body motion, posture, andfacial expressions using only videos capturing the lifts. Extracted features were normalizedand used by machine learning models for classifying safety and risk levels determined by validated metrics of injury risk, i.e., lifting index and perceived physical effort (Borg scale). Inaddition, this study discovered novel lifting risk indicators by investigating the relationshipsbetween extracted features and lifting risks through interpretable machine learning and statistical inference techniques. In study B, a prototype decision support system that aims tohelp people perform lifting risk assessment is developed. The proposed system implementsthe video-based method from study A. A usability study is conducted to investigate the effectof the decision support system on user performance and confidence, and demonstrates theeffectiveness of the proposed system. In summary, this thesis (a) proposes a non-intrusivemethod for lifting risk assessment, (b) discovers novel lifting risk indicators, and (c) developsa decision support system for helping people perform lifting risk assessment.

Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification for Detection of Pasteurella multocida, Mannheimia haemolytica, and Histophilus somni in Bovine Nasal Samples
Creators: name: Mohan, Suraj
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Agricultural biotechnology not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis aims to develop loop mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays that can be used with bovine nasal samples to detect the presence of bacterial pathogens (Pasteurella multocida, Mannheimia haemolytica, Histophilus somni) that cause bovine respiratory disease. The most common method to diagnose and treat BRD involves a physical examination and follow-up trial-and-error antibiotic therapies. Unfortunately, physical symptoms are often not consistent with the presence of BRD and antibiotic treatments incur a failure rate of 33%. This can lead to a surgency of antibiotic resistant pathogens, posing a significant risk to the beef cattle industry. Nucleic acid-based diagnostics, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), offer a robust approach for identifying BRD pathogens by amplifying species-specific genes from genetic material present in nasal samples. However, PCR-based approaches are limited to a lab setting due to expensive equipment required for maintaining assay reactions, and inhibitors that necessitate preprocessing to optimize assay performance. LAMP, on the other hand, offers an accurate, inhibitor resistant approach to detecting BRD causing bacteria in a format more amenable to field use. This assay was developed to have an accuracy of 97% in pure DNA samples, sensitivity and specificity of 99% and 89% respectively in DNA-spiked bovine nasal samples, and has a limit of detection of 104 DNA copies/reaction.

Le Grand Paris des services urbains : eau et assainissement dans l’entre-deux-guerres,  un changement d’échelle ?
Creators: name: Barles, Sabine
Publisher: name: Collectif Inventer le Grand Paris
Year: 2014

description: Jusqu’à la Grande Guerre, Paris a conduit de façon relativement autonome ses projets réticulaires, notamment dans le domaine des transports, de la gestion de l’eau et des boues et ordures ménagères. Dès la fin du XIXe siècle cependant, cette configuration qui ignore le développement de la banlieue semble ne plus tenir et plusieurs voix s’élèvent en faveur d’une vision départementale des services urbains, qui attendra l’entre-deux-guerres pour être mise en place.

L’objet de cet article est d’analyser les tenants et aboutissants de ce difficile changement d’échelle dans la gestion urbaine, en mettant en particulier l’accent sur l’eau et l’assainissement, deux secteurs étroitement imbriqués qui connaissent alors une profonde mutation. On observera en particulier le schéma général d’assainissement de la Seine, adopté en 1929, ainsi que le programme de construction des barrages-réservoirs, qui est engagé à la même époque. C’est une solidarité à certains égards forcée qui se met ainsi en place, Paris ne pouvant plus faire comme si la banlieue n’existait pas : la capitale doit partager la ressource et les infrastructures. Mais elle conserve en retour un rôle majeur dans leur gouvernement et leur gestion.

description: This thesis explores the relationships between political elites and their constituencies, looking specifically at the emergence and production of a new type of political elite in post-war Lebanon. Based on micro-level ethnographic research amongst Beirut’s Sunni communities, mainly within Nejmeh Sports Club, I explore the crystallisation of the model of an ‘entrepreneurial elite’ as exemplified by the late Prime Minister Rafic Hariri, who came to be the club’s patron. The most popular football club – and indeed sports club – in Lebanon, Nejmeh embraced members from different social classes, sectarian affiliations and political camps. It therefore provided a rare fieldwork site from which to observe the negotiation of clientelistic relationships, and to do so over an extended period, including times of heightened political – and occasionally violent – conflict. The stadiums provided a theatre for the spectacular performance of politics, wealth and power, and the events which took place in them mirrored the interplay of both local and global transformations occurring over the span of almost two decades.

My research argues that the post-war period ushered in a new ‘glocal’ model of political elite which combined a corporate background and the performative use of wealth with well-tried tactics of ascendance to power, namely philanthropy, sectarianism and clientelism. It is a model which amalgamated seemingly contradictory rhetoric and practice. Its rhetoric of professionalism, democracy, championing of state institutions, and nonviolence often paralleled practices of corruption, vote-buying, and the support of strong-arm racketeering. This model of an elite functioning at the highest level of Lebanese politics, moved the locus of power, as well as economic opportunities, into the control of an ever smaller number of people, marginalising both the power and roles of those actors operating further down the class and clientelistic hierarchy of relationships. Within such a hierarchy, public demonstrations of loyalty performed by those in the lower echelons of society served to simultaneously lay claim to the elite’s favours and to suppress alternative or dissident voices.

description: This thesis is written from an artistic perspective as a reflection on currently significant
discussions in media theory, with a focus on the impact of technology on society. While
mapping boundaries of contemporary art, post-digital art is considered the best for
describing current discourses in media theory in the context of this research. Bringing
into the discussion artworks by Martin Howse & Jonathan Kemp (2001-2008), Maurizio
Bolognini (Bolognini 1988-present), and myself (mi_ga 2006), among many others, this
research defines post-digital art, which in turn defines a complexity of interactions
between elements of different natures, such as the living and non-living, human and
machine, art and science. Within the analysis of P2P networks, I highlight Milgram's
(1967) idea of six degrees of separation, which, at least from a speculative point of
view, is interesting for the implementation of human-machine concepts in future
technological developments. From this perspective, I argue that computer networks
could, in the future, have more potential for merging with society if developed similarly
to the computer routing scheme implemented in the Freenet distributed information
storage and retrieval system. The thesis then describes my own artwork,
0.30402944246776265, including two newly developed plugins for the Freenet storage
system; the first plugin is constructed to fulfill the idea of interacting elements of
different natures (in this case, the WWW and Freenet), while the other plugin attempts
to visualize data flow within the Freenet storage and retrieval system. All together, this
paper proposes that a reconsideration of distributed and self-organized information
systems, through an artistic and philosophical lens, can open up a space for the
rethinking of the current integration of society and technology.

Optimisation

description: In this work, capturing Near-Earth Asteroids (NEAs) into Near-Earth orbits is investigated. A general optimization strategy is employed whereby a genetic algorithm is used to seed a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method for the first step, and then nearby solutions seed further SQP runs. A large number of solutions are produced for several asteroids with varying levels of thrust, and under the effects of various perturbations. Solutions are found over a range of epochs and times of flight as opposed to many traditional methods of optimizing point solutions. This methodology proved effective, finding low-thrust capture solutions within 10% of the required Delta V for analytically estimated transfers, and matching results from other optimization programs such as MALTO. It is found that the effects of solar radiation pressure (SRP) and n-body effects do not have a significant impact on the optimized transfer costs, nor do the perturbations significantly affect the shapes and trends of the optimized solution space.
 These optimized results are then used to develop analytic models for both optimized transfer costs and flight times. These models are then used to estimate the transfer costs and flight times for all listed Near Earth Asteroids from the JPL Small Body Database. This analysis is then used to determine the nominal properties of potentially capturable asteroids. The characteristics are then related to a series of different asteroid transfer technologies, elucidating each technology's capabilities and potential capture targets. Finally, this analysis concludes with a brief roadmap of the major decisions mission designers should consider for future asteroid capture missions.

description: Buildings are one of the fundamental sources of geospatial information for urban planning, population estimation, and infrastructure management. Although building extraction research has gained considerable progress through neural network methods, the labeling of training data still requires manual operations which are time-consuming and labor-intensive. Aiming to improve this process, this thesis developed an automated building extraction method based on the boundary following technique and the Mask Regional Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN) model. First, assisted by known building footprints, a boundary following method was used to automatically best label the training image datasets. In the next step, the Mask R-CNN model was trained with the labeling results and then applied to building extraction. Experiments with datasets of urban areas of Bloomington and Indianapolis with 2016 high resolution aerial images verified the effectiveness of the proposed approach. With the help of existing building footprints, the automatic labeling process took only five seconds for a 500*500 pixel image without human interaction. A 0.951 intersection over union (IoU) between the labeled mask and the ground truth was achieved due to the high quality of the automatic labeling step. In the training process, the Resnet50 network and the feature pyramid network (FPN) were adopted for feature extraction. The region proposal network (RPN) then was trained end-to-end to create region proposals. The performance of the proposed approach was evaluated in terms of building detection and mask segmentation in the two datasets. The building detection results of 40 test tiles respectively in Bloomington and Indianapolis showed that the Mask R-CNN model achieved 0.951 and 0.968 F1-scores. In addition, 84.2% of the newly built buildings in the Indianapolis dataset were successfully detected. According to the segmentation results on these two datasets, the Mask R-CNN model achieved the mean pixel accuracy (MPA) of 92% and 88%, respectively for Bloomington and Indianapolis. It was found that the performance of the mask segmentation and contour extraction became less satisfactory as the building shapes and roofs became more complex. It is expected that the method developed in this thesis can be adapted for large-scale use under varying urban setups.

Advice-Driven Learning: A Blocks-World and Fake News Detection Approach

Subjects: Applied computing not elsewhere classified

description: Over the last few years, there has been growing interest in learning models for various Natural Language Processing tasks, such as the popular blocks world domain and fake news detection. These works typically view these problems as single-step processes, in which a human operator gives an instruction and an automated agent is evaluated on its ability to execute it. In this work, we take the first step towards increasing the bandwidth of this interaction, and suggest a protocol for including advice, high-level observations about the task, which can help constrain the agents prediction. Advice is designed to be a short natural language sentence, provided by the human operator in addition the original input for the task, that can help the agent improve its performance. We evaluate our advice-based approach on the blocks world task and fake-news detection, and show that even simple advice can help lead to significant performance improvements. To help reduce the effort involved in supplying the advice, we also explore model self-generated advice which can still improve results.

description: In today’s digital landscape, the spread of cyber threats presents an ongoing challenge for software security. Addressing vulnerabilities through effective patching practices is key to safeguarding systems and data from malicious exploitation. This study delves into the characteristics of security vulnerability patching within the software ecosystem, using a dataset spanning over 12 years. Our study explores 3,094 vulnerabilities across 682 open-source projects. Through analysis of vulnerable codes and associated patching activities; the research sheds light on the implications of patch deployment strategies. The study acquires some insights into patch development and deployment by examining the patterns of vulnerability symptoms, causes and consequences. The findings reveal that 15.5% unreliable vulnerabilities persist for extended periods before "actually" fixed. Moreover, the study finds 4.15% patches to be incorrect. This research advances cybersecurity resilience and informs facts for mitigating emerging threats in software systems by providing an understanding of security patching practices.

description: In a public sphere wherein corporate monopolies of mass media networks prevail and antidemocratic practices suppressing the freedom of speech are the norm, the widespread adoption of the Internet in Turkey has engendered the emergence of a sphere of dissent wherein participants use social media and Web 2.0 platforms to engage in cyberactivism, participate in networked social movements, and express alternative, non-hegemonic political identities and discourses. Sözlüks, a genre of content hosting platforms that can broadly be described as urban dictionaries, are unique within this ecology insofar as they rely on collaborative mechanisms to produce and organize dissent. Affording the oppurtunity to express oneself to the Turkish-speaking online audience in an anonymous manner, sözlüks have become safe havens for free speech within the context of a country historically known for the censure of the press and the public sphere.

Although it has been argued that engagement in spaces similar to sözlüks constitute a form of digital labour, this dissertation argues that participation and the collaborative process found in sözlüks constitutes a unique model of peer production. The commons-based peer-production model used by sözlüks generates a constant steam of publicly accessible and at times, subversive information. User generated dissent explores communal, commons and automated aspects to the peer production mechanisms driving Ekşisözlük, the oldest urban dictionary in Turkish cyberspace in a holistic manner. It attempts to link the model of collaboration found on Ekşisözlük with other studies on different peer production models found elsewhere online.

Opting for a mixed methodology that combines ethnographic fieldwork with a sociotechnical systems and Biography of Artefacts (BoA) approach, User generated dissent combines conventional data collection methods with using the Wayback Machine (WM) to build a longitudinal case-study to document the collaborative process that has made Ekşisözlük a unique and influential actor within the ecology of Turkish cyberspace.
