Subjects: Electrical engineering not elsewhere classified

description: Edge detection is one of the most important application in image processing. Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have become popular computing platforms for signal and image processing. The Zynq-7000 System on Chip (SOC) is a dual-processor platform with shared memory. The thesis describes a novel and fast implementation of Sobel edge detection using the Zynq-7000 SoC. Our implementation is a combination of software and hardware using the Vivado HLS and Zynq (SoC). As a result our implementation is fast. We make a comparison with other conventional edge detection techniques and show that the speed of operation of this design is much faster.
Carare - D6.5: Carare International Conference Workshop 2011 (Final)

International Workshop

description: During the second year of the CARARE Project, Work package 6 specifies that a CARARE Workshop would be organised by NTUA to be held at an international conference. The European Conference on Research and Advanced Technology for Digital Libraries (ECDL) was the suggested event, being held in Berlin in late September. NTUA duly submitted a proposal entitled “Achieving Semantic Interoperability in European Digital Libraries” which focussed upon Europeana, the metadata schemas and digital libraries and which was to be jointly sponsored by CARARE and EU Screen, another Europeana content ingestion project. However, the proposal was unsuccessful and an alternative event had to be selected. (Europeana did not feature in any of the selected workshops and the nearest in subject matter was on semantic archives and digital curation).

Fortunately, Erfgoed Nederland (a CARARE participant) organise a bi-annual conference “Digital Strategies for Heritage” which was to take place in December and as such, CARARE partners were invited to submit a proposal for a workshop. This resulted in one workshop proposal from the Swedish Heritage Board in conjunction with the Cyprus Institute plus two presentations from KNAWS-DAN and N303 providing very good coverage for the CARARE project.

The presentations and workshop are described in further detail in the following sections and this report concludes with the planned international workshops for the final year of the CARARE project.

description: Seligman (2011) introduced well-being theory as a multidimensional model to increase and measure well-being. The PERMA model of well-being theory defines well-being in terms of five constructs: Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment. Together, these five constructs are the foundation of individual and community well-being. The end goal of well-being theory is flourishing, which is defined as optimal well-being, where one is in the upper range of all five PERMA elements. The purpose of this study was to test whether all five PERMA elements of well-being could be derived from items in the 2018 Purdue Student Experience at a Research University (SERU) survey, thus providing support for the multidimensional model in context of undergraduate students at a research-intensive university. Using confirmatory factor analysis, all five PERMA constructs were supported with use of 32 items and demonstrated good model fit statistics. A second order PERMA well-being construct was built and demonstrated adequate model fit with RMSEA = 0.04. In the full PERMA model, all 32 items were significant at p < .05. In the full PERMA model, all five constructs were significant at p < .001. Accomplishment had the highest factor loading (0.76) and Meaning had the lowest factor loading (0.25). Results from this study provide initial support for use of well-being theory in context of undergraduate students.

Supply chains

description: The author investigated the condition under which competition effect and contagion effect impact the suppliers of the firm encountering data breach. An event study was conducted to analyze the stock price of 104 suppliers of Target after the large-scale data breach in 2013. The result showed that suppliers with high dependence on Target experienced negative abnormal return on the day after Target’s announcement, while those with low dependence experienced positive abnormal return. After regressing the abnormal return on some explanatory variables, the result showed that firms with better operational performance and high information technology capability were less negatively affected. This study suggested that suppliers who relatively highly rely on one customer company are susceptible for the negative shock from that customer because of contagion effect. Furthermore, maintaining good performance and investing in information technology can help firms reduce losses from negative events happened in customer companies.

Subjects: Recruitment, certified public accountants, accounting profession, work styles, competencies

description: Recruiting and retaining qualified certified public accountants (CPAs) is essential for organizations' fiscal management and success. The accounting profession is expected to grow significantly, increasing the pressure on businesses to hire CPAs whose work styles align with the evolving demands of the field. Traditionally, personality inventories have been used to assess candidates' fit with companies and positions, but these tools often overlook work styles. In high-demand, high-turnover professions like accounting, it is crucial to find accountants whose work styles align with the competencies needed for the role. This paper explores the changing landscape of the accounting profession, focusing on the competencies required for success in the 21st century, and discusses the importance of aligning work styles with these competencies

Subjects: Seasoned equity offerings, debt financing, stock price drop, issuing costs, financial incentives

description: Companies face significant stock price drops, typically ranging from two to three percent, upon announcing seasoned equity offerings (SEOs), as evidenced in various studies (Asquith & Mullins, 1986; Masulis, 1986; Smith, 1986; Jung, Kim, & Stulz, 1996). Smith (1986) further reveals that the market's reaction to equity issuance on the announcement day is approximately 2.88 percent more negative compared to debt issuance. Bayless (1994) supports these findings, suggesting that the issue costs for equity can be 35.4 to 48.6 percent higher than similar debt issues, using the Asquith-Mullin (1986) measure. Lee, Lochhead, Ritter, and Zhao (1996) reinforce the notion of equity financing's elevated costs by reporting that the total direct costs of SEOs average 7.11 percent of total proceeds, while debt issues only represent 2.24 percent. These empirical results collectively highlight that, in general, equity financing is both costly and more expensive than debt financing, making debt a seemingly more attractive option. Nonetheless, individual firms may opt for equity issuances due to other motivating factors.

SOCIAL NETWORKING SITE USE AS A PREDICTOR OF RELATIONSHIP SATISFACTION, SELF-ESTEEM, AND SOCIAL COMPARISON ORIENTATION
Creators: name: Gantz, Kaitlyn B
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020

description: The current research study examined the way that social networking site use impacts individuals’ self-esteem in relation to their romantic relationship, relationship satisfaction, and social comparison orientation. Previous research has established links between SNS use and negative mental health outcomes, but no current research studies SNS use, specifically time spent on SNS use, and how it relates to self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, and social comparison orientation. Using social comparison theory, this study predicted that increased time spent on SNSs would negatively impact relationship satisfaction, self-esteem, and positively predict social comparison orientation. An online survey was used to test the relationship among these variables by asking questions and using scales related to relationship satisfaction, relationship contingent self-esteem, and social comparison orientation, while looking at how time spent on SNS impacted these results, as well as how often an individual posts about their relationship impacted the results. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. This study found that increased time spent on SNS platforms did negatively impact relationship satisfaction and self-esteem, as well as positively predict social comparison orientation. Although, some of the hypotheses were not supported or were only partially supported, the findings from this study further show the importance of understanding SNS use, especially in the clinical context, so it can be assessed and utilized in the therapy setting.

description: Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important crops worldwide for its critical importance in agriculture, economic stability, and food security. Many agricultural research and commercial breeding programs target the efficiency of this crop, seeking to increase productivity with fewer inputs and becoming more environmentally sustainable and resistant to impacts of climate and other external factors. For the purpose of analyzing the performance of the new varieties and management strategies, accurate and constant monitoring is crucial and yet, still performed mostly manually, becoming labor-intensive, time-consuming, and costly.
Flowering is one of the most important stages for maize, and many other grain crops, requiring close attention during this period. Any physical or biological negative impact in the tassel, as a reproductive organ, can have significant consequences to the overall grain development, resulting in production losses. Remote sensing observation technologies are currently seeking to close the gap in phenotyping in monitoring the development of the plants’ geometric structure and chemistry-related responses over the growth and reproductive cycle.For this thesis, remotely sensed hyperspectral imagery were collected, processed and, explored to detect tassels in maize crops. The data were acquired in both a controlled facility using an imaging conveyor, and from the fields using a PhenoRover (wheel-based platform) and a low altitude UAV. Two pixel-based classification experiments were performed on the original hyperspectral imagery (HSI) using Spectral Angle Mapper (SAM) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) supervised classifiers. Feature reduction methods, including Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Locally Linear Embedding (LLE), and Isometric Feature Mapping (Isomap) were also investigated, both to identify features for annotating the reference data and in conjunction with classification.Collecting the data from different systems allowed the identification of strengths and weaknesses for each system and the associated tradeoffs. The controlled facility allowed stable lighting and very high spatial and spectral resolution, although it lacks on supplying information about the plants’ interactions in field conditions. Contrarily, the in-field data from the PhenoRover and the UAV exposed the complications related to the plant’s density within the plots and the variability in the lighting conditions due to long times of data collection required. The experiments implemented in this study successfully classified pixels as tassels for all images, performing better with higher spatial resolution and in the controlled environment. For the SAM experiment, nonlinear feature extraction via Isomap was necessary to achieve good results, although at a significant computational expense. Dimension reduction did not improve results for the SVM classifier.

SHORT INTEREST RATIOS AND THEIR IMPACT ON CORPORATE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS

Publisher: name: AYDEN JOURNAL
Year: 2025
Subjects: Stock market rationality, classical view, behavioral view, investor sentiment, corporate investment

description: The perpetual debate regarding the rationality of stock markets remains a captivating and ongoing topic of inquiry. Existing literature broadly approaches this issue through two distinct frameworks: the classical and the behavioral perspectives. In the classical view, market efficiency prevails, where stock prices faithfully reflect changes in anticipated future cash flows or discount rates. Consequently, there should be no discernible relationship between share prices and corporate investment, provided that firms' fundamentals are sound. In stark contrast, the behavioral viewpoint posits that managers strategically time their equity issuances to capitalize on moments when stock prices become disconnected from underlying fundamentals, as exemplified by studies like Loughran and Ritter (1995) and Baker and Wurgler (2000).

This study builds upon the works of De Long, Shleifer, Summers, Waldmann (1990) and Stein (1996) and the subsequent challenges posed by Baker, Stein, and Wurgler (2003 to challenge the classical perspective. Their theoretical and empirical framework introduces two investor categories: sophisticated informed investors and uninformed noise traders. Noise traders, price influenced by biased beliefs, because stock prices to diverge from their intrinsic values. Stein (1996) asserts that investment decisions become contingent on investor sentiment if the required return on a share is a result of investor overestimation of future payoffs rather than the share's inherent risk. For instance, an overly optimistic investor climate may lead a manager to adopt an aggressive investment strategy to maximize the current share

Differentiating Users Based on Changes in the Underlying Block Space of Their Smartphones

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Other engineering not elsewhere classified

description: With the growing popularity of using smartphones in business environments, it is increasingly likely that phones will be the target of attacks and sources of evidence in cyber forensic investigations. It will often be important to identify who was using the phone at the time an incident occurred. This can be very difficult as phones are easily misplaced, borrowed, or stolen. Previous research has attempted to find ways to identify computer users based on behavioral analysis. Current research into user profiling requires highly invasive examinations of potentially sensitive user data that the user might not be comfortable with people inspecting or could be against company policy to store. This study developed user profiles based on changes in a mobile phone's underlying block structure. By examining where and when changes occur, a user profile can be developed that is comparable to more traditional intrusion detection models, but without the need to use invasive data sets. These profiles can then be used to determine user masquerading efforts or detect when a compromise has occurred. This study included 35 participants that used Samsung Galaxy S3s for three months. The results of the study show that this method has a high accuracy of classifying a phone's actual sessions correctly when using 2-class models. Results from the 1-class models were not as accurate, but the Sigmoid SVM was able to correctly classify actual user sessions from attack sessions.
MUTUAL DEPENDENCIES OF INTEREST RATES, PRODUCT PRICING, AND TRADE CREDIT: AN IN-DEPTH EXPLORATION
Creators: name: Leclerc, Olivia Marie
name: Wong, Alexander James
Publisher: name: AYDEN JOURNAL
Year: 2025

description: This study investigates the impact of trade credit on the effectiveness of monetary policy transmission, addressing the empirical observation that trade credit tends to mitigate the effects of central bank actions. To elucidate this phenomenon, we develop a partial equilibrium model that incorporates third-degree price discrimination and menu costs. Our primary finding reveals that optimizing credit terms and product prices yields minimal net present value (NPV) gains compared to the minute menu costs associated with short-term interest rate adjustments during low-inflation periods. Consequently, credit terms and product prices remain relatively stable over time, in alignment with empirical evidence presented by Ng, Smith, Smith (1999), and Mateut (2005). Furthermore, our model provides insights into the Meltzer (1960) hypothesis, suggesting that trade credit experiences less volatility than bank credit in the context of monetary policy transmission. This implies that firms strategically set trade credit terms to maximize NPV while considering menu costs, thereby rationalizing certain credit channel-related empirical phenomena. The paper also explores parallels between trade credit dynamics and exchange rate pass-throughs, shedding light on the effectiveness of monetary easing during a pandemic. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between trade credit and monetary policy, with potential implications for policy design and implementation.

description: Since the novel coronavirus began in December 2019, it has resulted in unprecedented changes for millions of Americans such as greater financial burden and reduced contact with loved ones. For pregnant women, the pandemic has also created additional stressors such as uncertainty regarding prenatal care and the long-term consequences of perinatal infection. Although a growing body of literature suggests pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic have experienced greater internalizing symptoms, few studies have examined whether these findings persist during later waves of the pandemic when less stringent restrictions were in place. Moreover, despite known links between prenatal stress and socioemotional functioning during infancy, little information is available regarding these associations during the pandemic. The current study addressed these gaps in the literature by first comparing prenatal internalizing
description: symptoms and infant temperament collected after the first wave of the pandemic to equivalent measures in a pre-pandemic comparison sample. Second, the influence of prenatal depression and anxiety symptoms on infant temperament was assessed prior to and during the pandemic. Finally, associations between prenatal pandemic-related stress and infant temperament were examined. Secondary analyses were performed with existing data from two studies conducted at Washington State University examining the effects of maternal wellbeing during the third trimester of pregnancy on infant temperament at two months postpartum. One sample was collected prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, while women in the second sample were enrolled between January and December 2021. During the third trimester, pregnant women completed measures of depression, general anxiety, and pregnancy-specific anxiety. Women pregnant
description: during the COVID-19 pandemic were also administered a measure of pandemic-related stress. At two months postpartum, mothers completed a survey measuring their infants’ temperament. Women who were pregnant during the COVID-19 pandemic endorsed higher pregnancy-specific anxiety and prenatal depression relative to the pre-pandemic sample. They also reported greater negative emotionality as well as lower positive affectivity and regulatory capacity in their infants at two months postpartum. Associations between prenatal internalizing symptoms and infant temperament did not differ prior to and during the pandemic. Prenatal infection stress directly predicted infant negative affect. Both prenatal infection and preparedness stress indirectly related to infant negative emotionality through perinatal depression symptoms. These results have implications for prenatal mental health screening procedures during the pandemic as well as the development of early intervention programs for infants born to mothers during this novel event.
A software visualization-based approach for understanding and analyzing incremental implementations of complex graph-based algorithms
Creators: name: Sun, Jiaxin
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Human-computer interaction

description: Algorithm has always been a challenging topic for students to learn because of its high level of abstraction. To provide visual aid for algorithm education, many algorithm visualization systems have been designed, developed, and evaluated for the last two decades. However, neither the topics covered nor the interactivity of most AV systems are satisfying. This problem is presented in detail in chapter 2. As a result, this research aims to design, implement and evaluate a compiler-based algorithm visualization system on complex graph algorithm implementation with the assumption that it can help students build both confidence and competence in understanding it. This system is designed and developed according to the method in chapter 3. To test the hypothesis, a comparison experiment on 10 students in the Computer Graphics Technology department is conducted. The complete test protocol can be found in chapter 3.4, and the result can be found in chapter 4. Based on the limited number of subjects’ testing data, a rough conclusion is made that this AV system has only a slight positive effect on subjects’ confidence and competence in understanding complex graph algorithm’s implementation, and its usability is acceptable. However, a concrete conclusion can only be reached if the testing is conducted to a larger group of subjects. In addition to the objective testing data, some interesting subjective observations, which are listed in chapter 5.2 are also made while doing the test. These observations indicate that algorithm visualization may more of a tool to examine users’understanding of the implementation than a tool to help them learn it.

Signaling or Safeguarding: The Logic of Mobilization in Crisis Bargaining

Subjects: Political science not elsewhere classified

description: This dissertation reexamines the often cited conclusion in diplomatic crisis bargaining that sunk cost signals, such as military mobilization and arms races, are inefficient compared to tied hands signals. This conclusion ignores the the investment potential that the most frequent examples of sunk cost signaling have in terms of increasing preparedness for war. Through a novel game theoretic model, I demonstrate that signals with a sunk investment can be optimal in comparison to tied hands signals. The conclusion of the model suggests that signals with a sunk investment, such as mobilization, have value as a hedged bet against deterrence, increasing in value as the investment would make the state more powerful in war, the state is pessimistic about deterrence, and the state is risk averse. I contextualize these conclusions in historical case studies of the Berlin Crisis and NATO intervention in Kosovo.

description: Juglone is a 1,4-naphthoquinone (1,4-NQ) and the allelochemical responsible for the well-known toxic effects of black walnut (Juglans nigra) and other members of the Juglandaceae. Juglone affects a variety of weed species via a mode of action unlike any commercially available herbicides, and thus has the potential to be used as a new natural product-based herbicide. However, lack of knowledge about its metabolism precludes introducing juglone biosynthesis traits into resistant crops through biotechnology. Herein, we established that juglone is derived from the phylloquinone pathway at the level of the intermediate 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (DHNA). Phylloquinone is a primary 1,4-NQ made by all plants for photosynthetic electron transport. Despite the fundamental importance of phylloquinone, there are still unanswered questions about the subcellular architecture of the phylloquinone pathway. In chapter 3, we show that o-succinylbenzoate CoA-ligase is localized to both chloroplasts and peroxisomes and that its activity is vital in both organelles. The required dual localization of CoA ligase activity is a theme common to other plant pathways with CoA metabolic steps occurring in peroxisomes and thus leads us to propose a revised model of the phylloquinone pathway. Lastly, given the potential of introducing juglone biosynthesis as part of novel weed management strategies, we investigated the circumstances, costs, and benefits of producing allelochemicals in crops using an evolutionary game theory model. Together, this work (i) shows that the phylloquinone pathway provides crops with the biosynthetic framework to produce juglone, (ii) sheds new light on the phylloquinone pathway architecture, and (iii) reveals the circumstances in which producing an allelochemical will be an evolutionarily stable strategy. We envision these results will assist biotechnological efforts to utilize juglone as a novel, natural product-based herbicide.

Spectral Approach to Modern Algorithm Design

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Theory of computation not elsewhere classified

description: Spectral Methods have had huge influence of modern algorithm design. For algorithmic problems on graphs, this is done by using a deep connection between random walks and the powers of various natural matrices associated with the graph. The major contributionof this thesis initiates attempts to recover algorithmic results in Graph Minor Theory via spectral methods.
We make progress towards this goal by exploring these questions in the Property Testing Model for bounded degree graphs. Our main contributions are1. The first result gives an almost query optimal one-sided tester for the property of H-minor-freeness. Benjamini-Schramm-Shapira (STOC 2008) conjectured that for fixed H, this can be done in time O(sqrt n). Our algorithm solves this in time n^{1/2+o(1)} which nearly resolves this upto n^{o(1)} factors.
2. BSS also conjectured that in the two-sided model, H-minor-freeness can be tested in time poly(1/eps). We resolve this conjecture in the affirmative.
3.Lastly, in a previous work on the two-sided-question above, Hassidim-Kelner-Nguyen-Onak (FOCS 2009) introduced a tool they call partition oracle. They conjectured that partition oracles could be implemented in time poly(1/eps) and gave an implementation which took exp(poly(1/eps)) time. In this work, we resolve this conjecture and produce such an oracle.

Additionally, this work also presents an algorithm which can recover a planted 3-coloring in a graph with some random like properties and suggests some future research directions alongside.

description: This dissertation is dedicated to understanding cellular protection mechanism of heat and drought stress resiliency in Triticum aestivum. Cellular protection mechanisms include maintaining ROS homeostasis through scavenging ROS and using autophagy to degrade damaged cellular components, were investigated as an adaptive drought and heat tolerance strategy in wheat. Cellular protection mechanisms are underutilized traits in breeding programs due to complexity of cellular dynamics. Therefore, the development of techniques to phenotype different aspects of cellular protection would impact breeding for heat and drought resiliency. In this dissertation: (1) the growth and development of genetically different wheat varieties through flowering time, root architecture, and yield under drought stress were compared; (2) photosynthetic parameters and ROS homeostasis activity under drought was examined; (3) molecular markers for ROS homeostasis and regulators of peroxisome proliferation were identified; and (4) molecular markers of autophagy were development and characterized, and autophagy under heat and drought was phenotyped in a wheat diversity population. PEX11C, CAT2, ATG8, ATG7, and NBR1 were identified as molecular markers for ROS homeostasis and autophagy in wheat. These markers can be used to facilitate breeding heat and drought resilient wheat varieties.
Diet Composition Explains Reductions in Stream Salamander Occupancy and Abundance Along a Conductivity Gradient

description: Changes in land use such as mountaintop removal mining with valley fills (MTR/VF) affect chemical, physical, and hydrological properties of headwater streams. Although numerous stream taxa have experienced significant declines from MTR/VF, stream salamanders appear to be particularly sensitive. Yet, the specific mechanism(s) responsible for the population declines has eluded researchers. We sampled salamander assemblages across a continuous specific conductivity (SC) gradient in southeastern Kentucky and estimated occupancy rates and abundance estimates along this gradient. We also examined the diet of larval and adult salamanders to determine if autochthony (A/T prey), total prey volume, and body condition is influenced by SC. As SC increased, occupancy and abundance declined consistently among all salamander species and life stages. Diet composition explained the declines; for example, larval salamanders experienced a 12−fold decline in autochthony, a 4.2−fold decline in total prey volume, and a rapid decline in body condition as SC increased. Our results indicate that SC indirectly affects stream salamander populations by eliminating an adequate availability of aquatic prey for salamanders, which in turn lead may lead to reduced population persistence in streams with elevated SC.
