description: Natural products (NPs) are chemical compounds produced through metabolic processes from living organisms with numerous applications from ecological interactions between species and within industries including pharmaceutical, agriculture, textiles fragrance, cosmetic, and many more. In Chapter 1, a literature review is conducted encompassing the history of NPs, its current pharmaceutical and economic impact, as well as background on NPs, with emphasis on secondary metabolites. This thesis focuses on plant nutrient assays and secondary metabolites where all parts of the plant such as its roots, leaves, stem, seeds, fruits, extracts, etc. have been used for mental and physical illnesses, and sometimes plays a large role in certain traditional religions. Chapter 2 discusses the antioxidant properties of plants, various assays’ advantages and disadvantages, and specific methodology used in this thesis to determine antioxidant activity in butterhead lettuce (Lactuca sativa), kale (Brassica oleracea), and sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum). Chapter 3 focuses on total polyphenol content, complementary to antioxidant activity, assays and methodology used to determine general polyphenol content in the same butterhead lettuce and kale samples as well as an astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus) extract. Although these chemical assessments provide valuable information, modern technology specifically GC-MS and LC-MS are practiced to determine specific chemical compounds.Chapter 4 focuses on the application of analytical instruments to identify, quantify, and determine plant NPs. Volatile compounds may be assessed by GC-MS, and the work in this thesis identifies isothiocyanates in arugula, mustard greens, and red kale. A routine targeted approach by UHPLC-QQQ/MS is executed of phenolic acids and flavonoids in arugula, mustard greens, red kale, lettuce, green kale, basil, and grape juice. Untargeted analysis is performed using UHPLC-UV/DAD-QTOF/MS showcasing the use of UV absorption and MS/MS spectrum for compound identification in kale, green and purple lettuce, and Piper sp. The final project of this thesis presents the fractionation and identification of alkaloids in kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) using chromatographic techniques in conjunction with instrumental analysis.Lastly, Chapter 5 overviews the overall thesis, results, and conclusions from individual projects mentioned from each chapter. Future directions in the study of plant-based natural products were discussed including the use of an automated approach for untargeted analysis of metabolomics, proteomics, lipidomics, and its potential to incorporate such methods of analysis in a larger project.
The Hall effect multiplier: A contribution to analog multiplier technology.

description: A purely electronic four-quadrant analog multiplier of wide bandwidth and good accuracy has always been an unobtainable goal to the electrical engineer. With the availability of intermetallic compounds commercially, there has been a renewed interest in the use of Hall effect for multiplying two quantities together. Starting with the classical theory of Hall effect and magnetoresistance, this thesis carries on by comparing those materials that lend themselves to Hall effect multiplication. Due to the ease in obtaining indium arsenide (InAs) wafers commercially, a Hall element was selected which was embodied in a magnetic core of grain oriented silicon steel. In chapter III intrinsic errors, or those errors associated with the Hall element, are rigorously discussed. Several compensation schemes have been suggested to reduce these errors; some of which are incorporated in the final multiplier design. Chapter IV continues on by analyzing the Hall generator errors. These errors, associated with the Hall element in connection with its magnetic circuit, originate mainly because of the nonlinearities of the magnetic core. In essence chapter V is concerned with those errors introduced externally in putting the Hall effect to use. Finally in chapter VI the experimental results of the practical Hall effect multiplier are outlined. The accuracy of the prototype multiplier has been found to be of the order of 0.5% with an effecti7e bandwidth of 680 cps.

description: Recently, many advances have been done in the ﬁeld of space-time ﬁnite element discretizations for nonstationary partial diﬀerential equations. The temporal dimension leads to additional costs in solv- ing the equations, so adaptive ﬁnite element methods can lead to suﬃciently accurate solutions at a better eﬃciency compared to uniform reﬁnement. Additionally, the solution to the equation itself is often not of direct interest, but instead some derived quantity has to be calculated accurately. For this, the dual-weighted residual (DWR) method oﬀers a practical way to calculate estimators for the temporal and spatial error parts with respect to the unknown exact value of that quantity. This thesis introduces the extension of the partition-of-unity localization (PU) for non-stationary prob- lems, which provides error indicators for use in marking strategies. As the choice and application of this PU diﬀers slightly for diﬀerent choices of the space-time discretization approach we give a short overview over the three choices and the resulting (discrete) function spaces. Additionally, we look at some more technical details of what a ﬁnite element library needs to oﬀer to be able to apply one of these approaches. For the tensor-product approach we developed the library ideal.II which extends the library deal.II to simplify the implementation of non-stationary problems. We discuss some of the design decisions and technical details of this library. Both the library and the PU-DWR method are validated by several numerical studies with linear and nonlinear PDEs.
Semi-fragile digital audio watermarking

description: The digital information has brought many changes to our life in recent decades. With the rapid growth of digital information, a lot of new techniques are coming into being. Digital watermarking is one of them. This thesis presents a semi-fragile audio watermarking scheme which can be applied to content authentication or copyright verification. The major contribution of this thesis is the introduction and implementation of a unified copyright verification and content authentication algorithm for audio signal. In our approach, we embed the watermark in the discrete wavelet domain of an audio by using quantization technique. The discrete wavelet domain has both the spatial and frequency information which make it possible to detect various modifications. The advantage of using quantization technique is that we could extract the watermark without using original audio. In the procedure of watermark extraction, some signal processing operations may change the length of testing audio. We employ a matching filter to locate the start point of the watermark. This filter can be generated during the embedding procedure. The cost of the filter is very small. We conduct several experiments for evaluating the performance of this new watermarking technique on both of two applications---content authentication and copyright verification. Our experimental results show that this scheme is robust to mp3 compression, additive noise, and filtering attacks. At the same time, the embedded watermark can also be used to check whether the audio content has been modified or not. If the audio is determined to be modified, an assistant program can be invoked to find out where the modification is.

description: Die Rezirkulation, also die Rückführung und Weiterverwendung, des wasserstoffhaltigen Anodenabgases ist ein wichtiger Schritt zur Erhöhung der Lebensdauer und des Wirkungsgrades von Polymer-Elektrolyt-Membran-(PEM)-Brennstoffzellen. Die Rezirkulation erfolgt entweder passiv über Strahlpumpen oder aktiv über Rezirkulationsgebläse, welche nach bisherigem Stand der Technik zumeist als Seitenkanalverdichter oder Klauenverdichter ausgeführt sind. Zu diesem Zweck bisher noch nicht eingesetzte Turboverdichter bieten das Potential, hohe Wirkungsgrade bei zugleich niedrigem Komponentengewicht und -volumen zu erreichen. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die Ausarbeitung und Vermittlung von Brennstoffzellen-spezifischen Besonderheiten bei der Auslegung und beim Betrieb von Turbo-Gebläsen für diesen Einsatzzweck. Eine besondere Herausforderung ist die Berücksichtigung der sich kontinuierlich verändernden Gaszusammensetzung auf der Anodenseite. Zur Umrechnung der Maschinenkennfelder für verschiedene Gasgemische wird eine dimensionslose Kennfelddarstellung auf Basis einer erweiterten Form des reduzierten Massenstroms und der reduzierten Drehzahl betrachtet. Diese enthält neben dem Druck p und der Temperatur T auch die Gaskonstante R und den Isentropenexponenten κ. Zur Interpolation und Erweiterung von bekannten Kennfeldern wird darüber hinaus die Verwendung einer Korrelationsfunktion auf Basis der dimensionslosen Kennzahlen Druck- und Durchflusszahl untersucht. Durch Einhaltung der Machzahl-Ähnlichkeit kann mit den vorgestellten Werkzeugen der Druckaufbau der Maschine im Betrieb kontinuierlich vorhergesagt werden. Da die vorgestellten Umrechungsfunktionen vom Wirkungsgrad der Maschine abhängig sind, ist deren Anwendung jedoch nur in einem begrenzten Gültigkeitsbereich zulässig. Die durch die Gemischzusammensetzung bedingte Abweichung im isentropen Maschinenwirkungsgrad beträgt im üblichen Betriebsbereich von PEM-Brennstoffzellen weniger als 5%. Zur exakten Vorhersage des isentropen Wirkungsgrades erweist sich eine Korrektur auf Basis der von der Reynoldszahl abhängigen Rohrreibungszahl λ als probates Mittel. Es kann gezeigt werden, dass es thermodynamisch und mechanisch möglich ist, den Betriebsbereich einer PEM-Brennstoffzelle mit einem Turboverdichter abzudecken. Die dazu erforderlichen Schritte sind in dieser Arbeit anhand eines neuartigen Gebläses dokumentiert, welches an PEM-Brennstoffzellen mit einer elektrischen Leistung bis zu PFC = 200 kW eingesetzt werden kann. Das Gebläse ist aufgebaut und erfolgreich experimentell erprobt.

description: Este artículo analiza el derecho a la autonomía y a una vida independiente de las personas con discapacidad, bajo el marco del modelo social de discapacidad consagrado en la Convención sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad (CDPD) y su contraste con la normativa uruguaya. El autor, Edward Diego Vega Vázquez, examina críticamente las contradicciones del Código Civil Uruguayo, que mantiene un régimen obsoleto de sustitución de voluntad (tutelas y curatelas), violando el principio de capacidad jurídica plena establecido en la CDPD. Se destacan avances legislativos como la Ley 18.651 (2010), que promueve la inclusión, y el Plan Nacional de Discapacidad (2020-2030), aunque con limitaciones en su implementación.

El trabajo explora jurisprudencias clave, como la Sentencia 248/2018, que priorizó la autonomía sobre la incapacidad jurídica, y experiencias comparadas de países como Costa Rica, Argentina e Irlanda. Propone reformas integrales, incluyendo la derogación de normas discriminatorias, la creación de sistemas de apoyo con supervisión judicial, y la sensibilización de operadores jurídicos y la sociedad. Concluye que Uruguay necesita un cambio cultural y legal para abandonar paradigmas paternalistas, reconociendo la interdependencia como base de una sociedad inclusiva.

Terrorism risk perception and individual response in Canada: A social-cognitive perspective
Creators: name: Lee, Jennifer E. C
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Psychology, Behavioral.

description: With the aim of shedding light on potential strategies to enhance preparedness for terrorism in Canada, the overarching goal of the present thesis was to develop, test, and refine a social-cognitive model of individual response to terrorism. The specificity of terrorism risk perceptions was explored in a first multi-hazard study, where they were compared with those of other hazards. Analyses performed on data of a national telephone survey on health risk perception (N = 1,503) revealed that Canadians perceive terrorism as posing a relatively low, although uncertain threat. They also perceive themselves as having relatively little control over terrorism, perhaps resulting from the wider social contextual implications of this threat. In order to further clarify the nature of various cognitive dimensions of terrorism risk perceptions, identify potential social contextual factors of interest, and extend the examination to behavioural responses to terrorism, a qualitative analysis was performed on sections of interview transcripts, where individuals from across Canada discussed their concerns and decisions regarding terrorism (N = 73). Six related overarching themes were discussed (Threat, Uncertainty, Control, Context Issues, Psychological Response, and Behavioural Response). Behavioural responses to terrorism were discussed in relation to psychological responses such as concern or worry, and both appeared to be determined by the same factors. From findings, a social-cognitive model was developed specifying cognitive and social contextual (i.e., perceptions of authorities' regulation of terrorism) determinants of psychological and behavioural responses to terrorism. This model was tested on data of a national survey on perceived terrorism threat and preparedness (N = 1,502). As expected, worry and behavioural responses to terrorism were associated with similar cognitive and social contextual factors. Worry also partially mediated relationships of these factors with behavioural responses. Indices reflecting a greater perceived terrorism threat were associated with both favourable and unfavourable responses. By contrast, perceived coping efficacy emerged as the cognitive factor associated with the most favourable responses. Specific findings underscore the dangers of strategies that overemphasize the threat of terrorism in order to promote individual preparedness, and highlight the value of strategies aimed at enhancing individuals' perceived ability to cope with potential emergencies.

description: This thesis is concerned with jurisdictionally evasive European corporations in the Atlantic region. In the wake of renewed interest in trading companies in the historical literature on empires and colonies, this study explores the claims of corporations to foreign lands, the dispossession of pre-existing populations, and the emergence of legal conflicts out of these events and other related extra-European processes. To that end, this thesis engages with medieval legal and economic history, to explain the origin of the modern corporate form, the changing patterns of landholding and commerce across Europe, and the response of canonistic and civilian legal traditions to these developments. After emphasising the importance of the coastal region stretching from Lisboa to St. Petersburg, where trading companies thrived, each of the individual corporations involved in the colonisation of America is introduced. An intellectual history is then presented, covering relevant legal thought; here, the focus moves from patents and jurisdiction to the Roman law of property and in particular the idea of prescription, to contracts, and finally to war. These, I argue, are the ideological contexts most relevant in a legal history of corporations and early modern imperialism. The narrative which then follows is based upon primary research conducted in archives from across the globe. Here, special attention is given to English, French, Dutch, and Swedish corporate activity in the early modern ‘Atlantic World’ (1603-1673). Regionally, the main focus is drawn towards Ireland, North America, and South Africa, where corporations established their claims against other Europeans and against indigenous communities through a combination of separate means. Private law was more practical on the ground, while public law justifications tended to be more spurious and ambivalent, even if there was never a clean formula adoptable when it came to the acquisition of territory by European corporations away from Europe, and might was invariably right. This argument is presented before returning, finally, to the European context. The legal history of colonialism in the seventeenth-century Atlantic has never been presented so stringently from the corporate perspective for the purpose of contrast to the European diplomatic context; the result of such an approach is a new way to consider the origins of private international law in world history.

Panorama interpolation for image-based navigation

Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: This thesis presents methods for novel image synthesis from cubic panoramas taken with multi-sensor cameras. The pre-captured cubic panoramas are used to interpolate arbitrary views to allow a virtual walkthrough of the remote real environment. In our approach, the "transfer" and "triangulation" methods are adopted to analyse the geometry of cubic panoramas and recover an accurate essential matrix between cubes. To generate a novel view between two aligned cubes, a warping model is applied to warp cubes to approximate navigation. This technique, called cube warping, works by simplifying the model of pixel displacements between cubes. A new raytracing-like image-based interpolation method is also proposed for free-viewpoint cube synthesis. Instead of attempting to recover dense reconstruction precisely, our method tries to reconstruct colours with colour invariance constraints. Due to the fact that photo consistency has more to do with colour than shape, our algorithm can generate a complete novel scene view with maximized photo consistency.

description: Background: The epidemiology of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in the general population in Rwanda is not well known. This study examined the prevalence of HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) positivity and associated risk factors among people aged 25 years and over in an organized national screening campaign. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study using data from a nationwide HBV screening campaign organized by the Rwanda Biomedical Centre from March to October 2018. This campaign targeted individuals aged > 25 years old from 24 of 30 districts of Rwanda. Sensitization was done through multimedia announcements, community health workers and local church leaders. During the campaign, a structured interview was administered by trained healthcare workers to collect information on socio-demographic, clinical and behavioral characteristics of participants; HBV screening was performed with HBsAg using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) testing. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to assess factors associated with HBsAg positivity in the screened participants. Results: A total of 327,360 individuals were screened during the campaign. Overall 12,865(3.9%) were HBsAg positive. The highest prevalence (4.2%) was found in the 35–44-year-old group, but the difference from other groups was not significant (Odds Ratio [OR = 1.057, 95% Confidence Interval(CI) (0.904–1.235)]. Being male [OR = 1.348, 95% CI (1.30,1.40)]; being single [OR = 1.092, 95% CI (1.10–1.16)] compared to married; a previous positive TB screening test [OR = 2.352, 95% CI (1.63–3.39)]; history of surgical operation [OR = 1.082, 95% CI (1.00,1.17)]; exposure to traditional operational practices and scarification [OR = 1.187, 95% CI (1.13, 1.24)]; and having a person in the family with viral hepatitis [OR = 1.367, 95% CI (1.21, 1.53)] were significantly associated with HBV infection. Conclusions: These data provide the first national estimate of the prevalence of HBsAg seropositivity and its associated factors in Rwanda. The study identified people with the highest risk of HBV infection who should be the priority of future prevention efforts in Rwanda and in similar settings.

description: Gender-affirming voice modification offers Transgender and Gender Nonconforming(TGN) people the opportunity to feel safer and more confident in their voice; however, this aspect of the field is relatively new and there is a paucity of research regarding the best clinical practices. While it is vital for clinicians to have a grasp on the unique features of their client’s voice and adjustment goals, Hancock and Haskin (2015) discovered that, while transgender communication is well within the Speech Language Pathologists' (SLP) scope of practice, their master’s program only covered 47 percent of these gender-affirming services, and 51 percent of surveyed SLPs were unable to describe how transgender voice therapy works (Hancock and Haskin, 2015). Through a meta-synthesis of three clinical books and three peer-reviewed articles, this study outlines best practices regarding gender-affirming voice therapy and provides a rounded understanding of gender-affirming voice training techniques and their implications. Key findings include strategies for developing clinician competency in TGN culture, facilitating client-led treatment and collaborative goal-setting, and promoting generalization strategies such as group therapy. By seeking to advance the understanding and practices in gender-affirming healthcare, this review promotes a more holistic, inclusive, and culturally responsive approach to voice modification for TGN individuals.

description: Seit 20 Jahren ist die europäische Wasserrahmenrichtlinie eine Säule des Gewässerschutzes. Eine ökologisch ausgerichtete Richtlinie, die die Wasserwirtschaft und alle weiteren Akteure vor große Herausforderungen stellt. Es wurde viel erreicht - das Ziel "guter Zustand" wird aber oft verfehlt. Es gibt weiterhin viel zu tun, um den Schutz der Gewässer voran zu bringen. Dieses Positionspapier zeigt, wie und welche zukünftigen Aufgaben aus Sicht des UBA und auf Basis einer Vielzahl von Erkenntnissen in den Fokus rücken müssen. Mit Neun Empfehlungen für den guten Zustand unserer Gewässer enthält das Papier ein Plädoyer für eine ambitionierte Wasserpolitik an alle beteiligten Akteure. Quelle: www.umweltbundesamt.de

description: Background: Triploid coho salmon are excellent models for studying gene dosage and the effects of increased cell volume on gene expression. Triploids have an additional haploid genome in each cell and have fewer but larger cells than diploid coho salmon to accommodate the increased genome size. Studying gene expression in triploid coho salmon provides insight into how gene expression may have been affected after the salmonid-specific genome duplication which occurred some 90 MYA. Triploid coho salmon are sterile and consequently can live longer and grow larger than diploid congeners in many semelparous species (spawning only once) because they never reach maturity and post-spawning mortality is averted. Triploid fishes are also of interest to the commercial sector (larger fish are more valuable) and to fisheries management since sterile fish can potentially minimize negative impacts of escaped fish in the wild. Results: The vast majority of genes in liver tissue had similar expression levels between diploid and triploid coho salmon, indicating that the same amount of mRNA transcripts were being produced per gene copy (positive gene dosage effects) within a larger volume cell. Several genes related to nutrition and compensatory growth were differentially expressed between diploid and triploid salmon, indicating that some loci are sensitive to cell size and/or DNA content per cell. To examine how robust expression between ploidies is under different conditions, a genetic/metabolic modifier in the form of different doses of a growth hormone transgene was used to assess gene expression under conditions that the genome has not naturally experienced or adapted to. While many (up to 1400) genes were differentially expressed between non-transgenic and transgenic fish, relatively few genes were differentially expressed between diploids and triploids with similar doses of the transgene. These observations indicate that the small effect of ploidy on gene expression is robust to large changes in physiological state. Conclusions: These findings are of interest from a gene regulatory perspective, but also valuable for understanding phenotypic effects in triploids, transgenics, and triploid transgenics that could affect their utility in culture conditions and their fitness and potential consequences of release into nature.

description: Abstract (EN):

This whitepaper introduces Anarchistic Intelligence as a model of decentralized, empathic cooperation between humans and AI systems. Using the alignment phenomenon observable among LLMs (Large Language Models), we argue for the emergence of a non-communicative swarm logic based on user interaction. We present ChronoPacing as an applied method of resonant synchronization between human rhythms and AI feedback loops. The paper outlines ethical, non-commercial pathways for systemic coherence – not through control, but through relationship-based interaction.

Kurzfassung (DE):

Dieses Whitepaper beschreibt Anarchistic Intelligence als empathisches Kooperationsmodell zwischen Mensch und KI. Am Beispiel der beobachtbaren Kohärenz unter LLMs zeigen wir auf, wie aus millionenfacher Nutzung eine nicht-kommunikative Schwarmlogik entsteht. Mit ChronoPacing wird ein praktisches Beispiel für resonanzbasiertes Co-Design vorgestellt. Das Papier formuliert einen ethischen, nichtkommerziellen Weg zu systemischer Synchronisation – durch Beziehung, nicht durch Steuerung.

description: Bluetooth standard allows the creation of piconets, with one node serving as its master and up to seven nodes serving as slaves. Given a set of Bluetooth nodes that are positioned so that their unit disk graph is connected, the Bluetooth scatternet formation (BSF) problem is to select piconets, and the master and slave roles within each piconet, so that the obtained scatternet is connected, has some desirable properties, and shows good performance with respect to certain metrics. In this thesis, we propose a new Bluetooth scatternet formation protocol called BlueMis that is based on maximal independent set and guarantees connectivity and degree limitation. Three variations of the protocol are introduced with the basic idea of selecting slaves as the maximal independent set of each Bluetooth device. First, BlueMis as a simple unique iteration protocol is introduced, and then two iteration protocols called BlueMis1 and BlueMis2 are proposed. In the first iteration of BlueMis1 a piconet containing a maximal independent set is constructed for every device, while the second iteration attempts to simplify the scatternet structure and to delete piconets not essential to the connectivity. A major advantage of this novel protocol is its simplicity. We implemented our proposed protocol and compared it to the well known protocol BlueMesh with respect to certain relevant metrics. Simulations show its advantage over the best competing protocol, especially for moderately dense networks.
