Detecting and Measuring Corruption and Inefficiency in Infrastructure Projects Using Machine Learning and Data Analytics
Creators: name: Ghahari, Seyedali
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Infrastructure engineering and asset management

description: Corruption is a social evil that resonates far and deep in societies, eroding trust in governance, weakening the rule of law, impairing economic development, and exacerbating poverty, social tension, and inequality. It is a multidimensional and complex societal malady that occurs in various forms and contexts. As such, any effort to combat corruption must be accompanied by a thorough examination of the attributes that might play a key role in exacerbating or mitigating corrupt environments. This dissertation identifies a number of attributes that influence corruption, using machine learning techniques, neural network analysis, and time series causal relationship analysis and aggregated data from 113 countries from 2007 to 2017. The results suggest that improvements in technological readiness, human development index, and e-governance index have the most profound impacts on corruption reduction. This dissertation discusses corruption at each phase of infrastructure systems development and engineering ethics that serve as a foundation for corruption mitigation. The dissertation then applies novel analytical efficiency measurement methods to measure infrastructure inefficiencies, and to rank infrastructure administrative jurisdictions at the state level. An efficiency frontier is developed using optimization and the highest performing jurisdictions are identified. The dissertation’s framework could serve as a starting point for governmental and non-governmental oversight agencies to study forms and contexts of corruption and inefficiencies, and to propose influential methods for reducing the instances. Moreover, the framework can help oversight agencies to promote the overall accountability of infrastructure agencies by establishing a clearer connection between infrastructure investment and performance, and by carrying out comparative assessments of infrastructure performance across the jurisdictions under their oversight or supervision.

description: Face redaction is used to deidentify images of people. Most approaches depend on face detection, but automated algorithms are still not adequate for sensitive applications in which even one unredacted face could lead to irreversible harm. Human annotators can potentially provide the most accurate detection, but only trusted annotators should be allowed to see the faces of privacy-sensitive applications. Redacting more images than trusted annotators could accommodate requires a new approach. This dissertation leverages the characteristics of human perception of faces in median-filtered images in a human computation algorithm to engage crowd workers to redact faces—without revealing the identities. IntoFocus, a system I developed, permits robust face redaction with probabilistic privacy guarantees. The system's design builds on an experiment that measured the filter levels and conditions where participants could detect and identify faces. Pterodactyl is a system that focuses on increasing the productivity of crowd-based face redaction systems. It uses the AdaptiveFocus filter, a filter that combines human perception of faces in median filtered images with a convolutional neural network to estimate a median filter level for each region of the image to allow the faces to be detected and prevent them from being identified.

description: Gas phase studies of the secondary structure of peptides and proteins have become increasingly popular as they offer distinct advantages of small sample usage and experiment time. The mass spectrometer is key to performing these experiments as ions can be manipulated based on their mass to charge ratio. Combining mass spectroscopy with laser spectroscopy birthed a new method for determining gas phase structures, ion spectroscopy. This document begins with an overview of secondary structure analysis using several techniques in solid, liquid, and gas phases. It then describes how ion spectroscopy can also be utilized to obtain detailed fingerprint infrared spectra of ions which are then matched with density functional theory calculations to determine the 3D structure of an ion. After describing the instrumental apparatus, four examples of the use of ion spectroscopy to determine structure are presented. The first study looked to understand the effect of increased flexibility around a proline residue in the diastereomeric pair YAD/LPGA and how a simple switch to glycine can greatly affect beta turn formation in peptides. The next three studies describe an attempt to form a single turn alpha helix in the gas phase using a highly stable tethered peptide motif. Failure to form the single turn helix in the first study led to an interesting examination of the use of computational chemistry to lead the synthesis of peptides where a specific structure is required. After observing the single turn helix attention is then diverted to expanding and controlling its handedness via stereochemistry. In all, this document will guide the reader through the methods and experiments possible with ion spectroscopy.
Towards a Traffic-aware Cloud-native Cellular Core

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Networking and communications

description: Advances in virtualization technologies have revolutionized the design of the core of cellular networks. However, the adoption of microservice design patterns and migration of services from purpose-built hardware to virtualized hardware has adversely affected the delivery of latency-sensitive services.
In this dissertation, we make a case for cloud-native (microservice container packaged) network functions in the cellular core by proposing domain knowledge-driven, traffic-aware, orchestration frameworks to make network placement decisions. We begin by evaluating the suitability of virtualization technologies for the cellular core and demonstrating that container-driven deployments can significantly outperform other virtualization technologies such as Virtual Machines for control and data plane applications.
To support the deployment of latency-sensitive applications on virtualized hardware, we propose using Virtual Network Function (VNF) bundles (aggregates) to handle transactions. Specifically, we design Invenio to leverage a combination of network traces and domain knowledge to identify VNFs involved in processing a specific transaction, which are then collocated by a traffic-aware orchestrator. By ensuring that a user request is processed by a single aggregate of collocated VNFs, Invenio can significantly reduce end-to-end latencies and improve user experience.
Finally, to understand the challenges in using container-driven deployments in real-world applications, we develop and evaluate a novel caller-ID spoofing detection solution in Voice over LTE (VoLTE) calls. Our proposed solution, NASCENT, cross validates the caller-ID used during voice-call signaling with a previously authenticated caller-ID to detect caller-ID spoofing. Our evaluation with traditional and container-driven deployments shows that container-driven deployment can not only support complex cellular services but also outperform traditional deployments.

description: In a context where sovereignty is structurally challenged, sub-state actors increasingly engage in international activities, and the dynamics of global capitalism transcend borders, how much does international recognition still matter in practical terms? This research approaches this question by analysing the external relations of post-Soviet de facto states, and comparing them with those of both sovereign and non-sovereign territories that share with them a set of key features. Theoretically, this research proposes to conceptualise post-Soviet de facto states as small dependent jurisdictions, thus introducing new analytical tools and resetting expectations about the nature of their relations with a patron, their level of dependence, and their long-term sustainability. Empirically, it offers a wealth of details on how external assistance enables access to public services and a degree of welfare to resident of post-Soviet de facto states.Methodologically, it argues in favour of systematic analysis of textual contents published on the web as an approach still under-utilised in area studies; analyses of purposefully created datasets of textual contents generated by institutions and media of post-Soviet de facto states have been structurally included in various phases of the research. Conflict and lack of recognition have been fundamental in making post-Soviet de facto states dependent and partly isolated. Since there is no indication that widespread international recognition, reintegration or some other form of agreement on their status is forthcoming, such features should be analytically considered inherent characteristics of these entities. Once they are conceptualised as small dependent jurisdictions, prevalent dynamics of external relations found in these territories are mostly compatible with those found in uncontested territories on both sides of the sovereignty divide.

The Oedipus complex in psychoanalysis: reflections on Freud’s clinical cases
Creators: name: Trotta, Antonella
name: Formica, Ivan
Publisher: name: University of Messina
Year: 2018

description: The Oedipus complex represents a key concept of psychoanalytic theory and is one of Freud’s most significant ideas. It constitutes a basic conflict in all humans’ psyche and it defines the structure of individual’s sexual identity. Despite Freud fully recognizing its crucial role in the organization of mental life, he never dedicated to it an entire writing. The Oedipus complex was, in fact, developed in multiple steps and its development cannot be disentangled from events in Freud’s personal and professional life. The aim of this paper is to describe the development of Freud’s concept of the Oedipus complex throughout his writings. Objectives of the study were, first, to provide a description of the theoretical mechanisms and, second, to focus on the Oedipus complex on three of Freud’s clinical cases: Dora, Little Hans and the Wolf-Man.

description: There are conflicting data on peculiar negative emotional patterns in Irritable Bowel Syndrome subtypes.  Our study was aimed to determine possible differences in depression, anxiety and anger in patients suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndromeconstipation, diarrhoea and mixed subtypes. The sample underwent a psychometric examination for the assessment of depression (Hamilton Rating Scale Depression), anxiety (Hamilton Rating Scale Anxiety), and anger (State-Trait Anger Expression Scale 2). Differences among groups were assessed using the Analysis of variance with Bonferroni post hoc comparisons, or the χ²-test if requested.


111 subjects (diarrhoea subtype =37; constipation subtype=34; mixed subtype=40) were included in the study. The severity of depressive symptoms was “moderate” in patients with constipationsubtype and “mild” in patients with diarrhoea and mixed subtypes (17.15±6.7 vs 14.24±6.6 vs 12.50±4.9); no statistically significant differences were documented among subtypes. Severity of anxiety symptoms was “mild to moderate” in patients with constipation subtype (mean = 18.53 ± 7.7), and mild in patients with diarrhoea (mean = 13.35 ± 7.1) and mixed subtypes (mean = 13.25 ± 4.7); statistically significant differences among subgroups were found (Constipation vs Diarrhoea: p=0.004; Constipation vs Mixed: p=0.003). Regarding anger, significant differences among subgroups emerged at State Anger Feeling Angry and Anger In variables, both higher in constipation subtype group than in mixedsubtype group (State Anger Feeling Angry: p=0.002; Anger In: p=0.001). Patients with constipation subtypeconstitute a subgroup characterized by a discrete burden of negative emotions, mainly anxiety and anger.

description: Vitamin D status has been previously associated with a wide range of acute and chronic diseases. The nervous system express vitamin D receptors and thus vitamin D may be involved in mental health. Poor data exist about the correlation between vitamin D and anxiety levels.Our aim was to investigate the association of vitamin D status with anxiety severity. A group of 177 postmenopausal women (mean age 65.5±8.22 yr.) referring to an outpatients clinic for the prevention of osteoporosis were evaluated. Severity of perceived anxiety symptoms was measured by the Hamilton Anxiety rating scale (HAMA). Depression levels were also evaluated using the Beck Depression Inventory-second edition scale (BDI-II).  25(OH)D serum levels, indicative of vitamin D status, were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography. 25(OH)D levels were significantly related HAMA-score (r=-0.15, p=0.04); particularly a deep association was observed between 25(OH)D levels and somatic symptoms (r=-0.195, p=0.009). HAMA score was associated with BDI-II score (r=0.487, p=<0.001); HAMA psychic symptom score was also related with age and time since menopause (r=0.149, p=0.039 and r=0.222, p=0.003, respectively). At a multiple regression analysis, after correcting for age and depression levels, 25(OH)D was predictive of HAMA score (β =-0,05961, p= 0.02, SE=-2.206), but the strength of association was lost further correcting for time since menopause.  In conclusion, in a setting of postmenopausal women, we observed a significant association between anxiety levels and serum 25(OH)D concentrations irrespective of age and depression levels.

description: Literature show that the presence of an insecure attachment is at the root of a difficulty in affect regulation and of the implementation of dysfunctional coping and resilience strategies. Adult attachment perspective posits that individuals with secure attachment are engaged in adaptive coping strategies, because their internal working models support a self-efficacy in achieving goals through their behavior. The aim of the study is to evaluate the relationships between alexithymia, adult attachment styles, coping and resilience strategies, in a group of 488 subjects (M = 248; F = 240) with ages ranging from 18 to 55 years (M = 34.9, SD = 12.52). The following instruments were used: the 20-Item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20); the Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced (COPE); the Attachment Style Questionnaire (ASQ); and the Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA). The data show that the secure adult attachment is positively associated with the ability to modulate affects, the correct use of coping strategies is correlated with resilience. The study underlines that the type of attachment styles (secure or insecure) and the ability to modulate feelings are closely associated.

Deeply-Scaled Fully Self-Aligned Trench MOSFETs in 4H-SiC

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Electrical engineering not elsewhere classified

description: Increasing demand for higher power density in many applications such as Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) and renewable power generation has led to great technological advances in power electronics. To meet this increasing demand, a power semiconductor device needs to have low on resistance, increased switching speeds and reduced total system cost. Silicon (Si) power devices have been used for several decades but they are fundamentally limited by material properties. Silicon carbide (SiC) as a power semiconductor material offers superior electrical and thermal properties compared to silicon, which it can replace in a large spectrum of applications. Because of a lower critical electric field, drift regions in Si power transistors need to be much thicker and more lightly doped, which in turn increases the specific onresistance Ron,sp. To combat the drift resistance component for higher blocking voltages, superjunction MOSFETs for medium voltages and Si IGBTs for high voltages are used. Since IGBTs are bipolar transistors, they exhibit much higher switching energy losses than MOSFETs. The SiC MOSFET is an excellent candidate in the medium to high voltage range, which mainly targets the HEV market.
Due to their low channel mobility, SiC MOSFETs have not reached the theoretical limit below 1200 V where channel resistance is dominant. Planar DMOSFETs dominate thecommercial SiC market today because of higher yield and relatively simpler fabrication process, but trench MOSFETs can be made with a smaller cell area and thus lower Ron,sp. Due to lower cell-pitch and high integration density of trench-gate devices, they offer an opportunity to reduce the size and weight of HEV power control units by replacing IGBTs with MOSFETs. The single-trench UMOSFET was first reported in 1994 by CREE and the first oxide protected trench MOSFET in 1998 by Purdue. This structure inserts a grounded p-type region below the gate trench to protect the oxide in the blocking state. In 2012, Rohm Semiconductor reported a novel double-trench UMOSFET with separate gate andfield-protection trenches. In 2017, Infineon published their new trench UMOSFET, known as Cool-SiC, with high gate oxide reliability. In this work a deeply-scaled, fully-self-aligned trench MOSFET is fabricated and characterized. The innovative process described enables a record cell-pitch of 0.5 μm per channel, equivalent to a channel density 6Å~ higher than currently available commercial UMOSFETs.

description: In 1984, George Eby reported that zinc lozenges can shorten the common cold. He summarized the field in:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7087920 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7173295 https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.11546133 

Eby's work was continued eg in:https://doi.org/10.1177/2054270417694291https://doi.org/10.1093/ofid/ofx059https://doi.org/10.1111/bcp.13057

In the attached document, Eby collected information of zinc lozenges in US market in 2012 and concluded that the majority of the zinc lozenges then on marked could not work. The file was freely available at the web page of George Eby, ("George Eby Research") but the web page is no longer functional and the latest publications of Eby are from 2012: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/George-Eby.Therefore this list is made freely available in Zenodo.

Many characters are not appropriately, but the document shows the scale of the problem. Even though properly composed zinc lozenges can influence colds, it is very difficult for ordinary patient to find such proper zinc lozenges.
Mechanics of Architectured Tubes

description: Architectured material systems offer the ability to control a system's response through the spatial arrangement of material. Material may be connected by discrete linkages or segmented by discrete cuts in such a system. This thesis serves as an investigation of the deformation and load response of architectured material systems in tubular configurations. Specifically, segmented tubes composed of interlocking building blocks and corrugated tubes formed from thin sheets of material are of interest. Interlocking, segmented tubes, or topologically interlocking material (TIM) tubes, are considered as assemblies of convex polyhedra. Multiple aspect ratios of tubes are considered with identical building block size. The load response to diametral indentation is obtained by finite element analysis and experimentation on additively manufactured tubes. Finite element models consider both an idealized scenario, where contacts between building blocks are stiff, and a realistic scenario, where there are much softer contacts between building blocks and a limit on shear stresses due to friction at contact interfaces. The mechanics of the deformation of TIM tubes are quantified by stress distributions and energies obtained from finite element models. It was found that interlocking between building blocks grants segmented systems increased stiffness, strength, and toughness. The response of TIM tubes varied with tube aspect ratio and contact conditions between blocks. An analysis of thrust-lines in the assembly with finite element results led to the formulation of a model to predict the load response of interlocking, segmented tubes. This model was found to fit idealized FE-model results, and, with the addition of slip between building blocks to the model, experiment results. Corrugated tubes are considered to be formed from stacks of sheet metal plies. Corrugations are formed one-by-one with a high-pressure fluid and forming machinery. The manufacturing process of these tubes is recreated in a finite element model. With this manufacturing model, the as-formed geometry and residual stress and strain profile of the tube are obtained. Finite element models of corrugated tube loading are created such that their initial state is the result of the manufacturing model. The response of corrugated tubes can then be investigated under the consideration of effects from manufacturing. Including the effects from manufacturing was found to influence the corrugated tube stiffness and yield force. Altering the ply thickness used to form tubes was also found to influence the corrugated tube stiffness. Certain fatigue failure locations were only predicted when including the effects from manufacturing in finite element simulations. Thus, the effects from manufacturing a corrugated tube were found to play a significant role in the tube's load response and failure.

Zinc Lozenges as a Common Cold Treatment [Non-Functional Lozenges on the Market]
Creators: name: Eby, George
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2012
Subjects: Zinc acetate
Zinc lozenges
Common cold
OTC

description: In 1984, George Eby reported that zinc lozenges can shorten the common cold. He summarized the field in:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7087920 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7173295 https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.11546133 

Eby's work was continued eg in:https://doi.org/10.1177/2054270417694291https://doi.org/10.1093/ofid/ofx059https://doi.org/10.1111/bcp.13057

In the attached document, Eby collected information of zinc lozenges in US market in 2012 and concluded that the majority of the zinc lozenges then on marked could not work. The file was freely available at the web page of George Eby, ("George Eby Research") but the web page is no longer functional and the latest publications of Eby are from 2012: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/George-Eby.Therefore this list is made freely available in Zenodo.

Many characters are not appropriately, but the document shows the scale of the problem. Even though properly composed zinc lozenges can influence colds, it is very difficult for ordinary patient to find such proper zinc lozenges.
Peer Effects on Qualitative Disclosure: Evidence from Earnings Press Releases
Creators: name: Zhou, Senran
Publisher: name: University of Illinois Chicago
Year: 2025

description: This paper examines the impact of earlier-reporting peers’ earnings news on the qualitative disclosures of later-reporting firms. Analyzing a comprehensive dataset of publicly traded companies, I find that later-reporting firms in the earnings season are more likely to differentiate their disclosures from those of their earlier-reporting peers when the leader firm reports good news. However, when both leader and lagger firms report positive earnings news, lagger firms tend to align their disclosures with those of the leader firm. This alignment effect strengthens as the window between announcement dates narrows. Additionally, higher EPR similarity is associated with lower market volatility for lagger firms, highlighting how aligned disclosure help stabilize investor expectations and reduce uncertainty. These findings provide empirical evidence on the roles of peer effects and disclosure timing in shaping qualitative disclosures and influencing market responses of later-reporting firms.

TRAJECTORY PATTERN IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION FOR ARRIVALS IN VECTORED AIRSPACE
Creators: name: Deng, Chuhao
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Aerospace engineering not elsewhere classified

description: As the demand and complexity of air traffic increase, it becomes crucial to maintain the safety and efficiency of the operations in airspaces, which, however, could lead to an increased workload for Air Traffic Controllers (ATCs) and delays in their decision-making processes. Although terminal airspaces are highly structured with the flight procedures such as standard terminal arrival routes and standard instrument departures, the aircraft are frequently instructed to deviate from such procedures by ATCs to accommodate given traffic situations, e.g., maintaining the separation from neighboring aircraft or taking shortcuts to meet scheduling requirements. Such deviation, called vectoring, could even increase the delays and workload of ATCs. This thesis focuses on developing a framework for trajectory pattern identification and classification that can provide ATCs, in vectored airspace, with real-time information of which possible vectoring pattern a new incoming aircraft could take so that such delays and workload could be reduced. This thesis consists of two parts, trajectory pattern identification and trajectory pattern classification. In the first part, a framework for trajectory pattern identification is proposed based on agglomerative hierarchical clustering, with dynamic time warping and squared Euclidean distance as the dissimilarity measure between trajectories. Binary trees with fixes that are provided in the aeronautical information publication data are proposed in order to catego- rize the trajectory patterns. In the second part, multiple recurrent neural network based binary classification models are trained and utilized at the nodes of the binary trees to compute the possible fixes an incoming aircraft could take. The trajectory pattern identifi- cation framework and the classification models are illustrated with the automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast data that were recorded between January and December 2019 in In- cheon international airport, South Korea .

BINARY FEEDBACK IN COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS: BEAM ALIGNMENT, ADVERSARIES AND ENCODING
Creators: name: Suresh, Vinayak
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Electrical engineering not elsewhere classified

description: The availability of feedback from the receiver to the transmitter in a communication system can play a significant role. In this dissertation, our focus is specifically on binary or one-bit feedback. First, we study the problem of successive beam alignment for millimeter-wave channels where the receiver sends back only one-bit of information per beam sounding. The sparse nature of the channel allows us to interpret channel sounding as a form of questioning. By posing the alignment problem as a questioning strategy, we describe adaptive (closed-loop) and non-adaptive (open-loop) channel sounding techniques which are robust to erroneous feedback signals caused by noisy quantization. In the second part, we tightly characterize the capacity for two binary stochastic-adversarial mixed noise channels. Specifically, the transmitter (Alice) intends to convey a message to the receiver (Bob) over a binary symmetric channel (BSC) or a binary erasure channel (BEC) in the presence of an adversary (Calvin) who injects additional noise at the channel's input subject to a budget constraint. Calvin is online or causal in that at any point during the transmission, he can infer the bits being sent by Alice and those being received by Bob via a feedback link. Finally in the third part, we study the applicability of binary feedback for encoding and propose the framework of linearly adapting block feedback codes. We also prove a new result for Reed-Muller (RM) codes to demonstrate how an uncoded system can mimic a RM code under this framework, against remarkably large feedback delays.
