description: The origin of the dense gas cloud G2 discovered in the Galactic Center (Gillessen et al. 2012) is still a debated puzzle. G2 might be a diffuse cloud or the result of an outflow from an invisible star embedded in it. We present hydrodynamical simulations of the evolution of different spherically symmetric winds of a stellar object embedded in G2. We find that the interaction with the ambient medium and with the extreme gravitational field of the supermassive black hole in the Galactic Center must be taken into account for such a source scenario. The thermal pressure of the hot and dense atmosphere confines the wind, while its ram pressure shapes it via stripping along the orbit, with the details depending on the wind parameters. Tidal forces squeeze the wind near pericenter, reducing it to a thin and elongated filament. We also find that in this scenario most of the Brγ luminosity is expected to come from the densest part of the wind, which has a highly filamentary structure with low filling factor. The observations can be best matched by a mass outflow rate of Mdot,w=8.8 x 10^{-8} Msun/yr and a wind velocity of vw = 50 km/s. These values are compatible with those of a young T Tauri star wind, as already suggested by (Scoville & Burkert 2013).

description: We performed a Chandra X-ray study of three giant H II regions (GHRs), NGC 5461, NGC 5462, and NGC 5471, in the spiral galaxy M101. The X-ray spectra of the three GHRs all contain a prominent thermal component with a temperature of ~0.2 keV. In NGC 5461, the spatial distribution of the soft (< 1.5 keV) X-ray emission is generally in agreement with the extent of H1105, the most luminous H II region therein, but extends beyond its southern boundary, which could be attributed to outflows from the star cloud between H1105 and H1098. In NGC 5462, the X-ray emission is displaced from the H II regions and a ridge of blue stars; the H-alpha filaments extending from the ridge of star cloud to the diffuse X-rays suggest that hot gas outflows have occurred. The X-rays from NGC 5471 are concentrated at the B-knot, a "hypernova remnant" candidate. Assuming a Sedov-Taylor evolution, the derived explosion energy, on the order of 10^52 ergs, is consistent with a hypernova origin. In addition, a bright source in the field of NGC 5462 has been identified as a background AGN, instead of a black hole X-ray binary in M101.

description: We study both the intrinsic and extrinsic spin Hall effect in spin-valley coupled monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides. We find that whereas the skew-scattering contribution is suppressed by the large band gap, the side-jump contribution is comparable to the intrinsic one with opposite sign in the presence of scalar and magnetic scattering. Intervalley scattering tends to suppress the side-jump contribution due to the loss of coherence. By tuning the ratio of intra- to intervalley scattering, the spin Hall conductivity shows a sign change in hole-doped samples. Multiband effect in other doping regime is considered, and it is found that the sign change exists in the heavily hole-doped regime, but not in the electron-doped regime.

title: Structural studies of blood coagulation factor VIII in complexes with inhibitory antibodies
Creators: name: Werther, Rachel
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2012

description:
Normal blood clotting is regulated by blood plasma protein factors in a blood coagulation cascade. Deficiency in one of these proteins, Factor VIII (FVIII), causes the disease hemophilia A, in which the patient is unable to form blood clots. Treatment of hemophilia A involves the infusion of FVIII, and the most common complication in this treatment is the development of antibodies against the therapeutic infusions. Two mouse monoclonal anti-human antibodies, 3E6 and G99, were used as models of inhibitory action against FVIII by binding to the C-terminal C2 domain. A classical antibody, 3E6, blocks the ability of FVIII to bind von Willebrand Factor, a circulatory partner. The classical antibody thereby reduces the stability of FVIII in plasma. A nonclassical antibody, G99, blocks the activation of FVIII, inhibiting the role of FVIII in the blood coagulation cascade. In order to study the inhibitory action of classical and nonclassical antibodies, 3 complexes were prepared, C2:3E6, C2:G99, and 3E6:C2:G99. Small angle X-ray scattering was used to study the structures of the C2 domain in complex with the antigen binding fragment (Fab) of each antibody and in complex with both Fabs simultaneously. Reproducible, low-resolution models of the complexes were generated from scattering data using a software suite from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory. The scattering data for 3E6:C2:G99 was used to generate an elongated shape with antibodies on opposite sides of the C2 domain. Extensive crystal trials were undertaken to prepare for future X-ray crystallography studies of the complexes.

description: This thesis addresses an important issue in city mobility research – how to evaluate a city’s mobility performance and mobility efficiency relative to other cities using objective data. This issue is addressed through a novel concept of supply and demand in city mobility with a hierarchy of objective indicators using various data science techniques. To address the missing data issue in a comprehensive city mobility database for ensuring the evaluation quality, an effective and robust imputation method is developed. These developments represent original contributions to city mobility research and to missing data imputation research with both methodological and practical significance.

description: Prolonged network lifetime, scalability and efficient load balancing are essential for optimal performance of a wireless sensor network. Clustering provides an effective way of extending the lifetime of a sensor network. Clustering is the process that divides sensor networks into smaller localized group (called clusters) of members with a cluster head. Clustering protocols need to elect optimal number of clusters in hierarchically structured wireless sensor networks. Any clustering scheme that elects clusters uniformly (irrespective of the distance from Base Station) incurs excessive energy usage on clusters proximal and distant to Base Station. In single hop networks a gradual increment in the energy depletion rate is observed as the distance from the cluster head increases. This work focuses on the analysis of wasteful energy consumption within a uniform cluster head election model (EPEM) and provides an analytic solution to reduce the overall consumption of energy usage amongst the clusters elected in a wireless sensor network. A circular model of sensor network is considered, where the sensor nodes are deployed around a centrally located Base Station. The sensor network is divided into several concentric rings centred at the Base Station. A model, Unequal Probability Election Model (UEPEM), which elects cluster heads non-uniformly is proposed. The probability of cluster head election depends on the distance from the Base Station. UEPEM reduces the overall energy usage by about 21% over EPEM. The performance of UEPEM improves as the number of rings is increased.

description: Machine translation (MT) is an important task in natural language processing as it automates the translation process and reduces the reliance on human translators. The goal of MT is to generate translations of a given text in a source language to that in the target language. With the advent of neural networks, the translation quality surpasses that of the translations obtained using statistical techniques. However, most of the neural translation models still perform a sentence-by-sentence translation, ignoring all extra-sentential information. This research aims to build efficient neural models for document-level translation, which incorporate global contextual information when translating sentences. Our experimental results confirm the significance of leveraging document-wide context information for improving translation quality.

description: Transmission control protocol (TCP) is a connection oriented protocol for several types of distributed applications. TCP is reliable particularly for traditional fixed networks. With emergence of faster wireless networks, TCP has been performing poorly in its original format. The performance of TCP is affected due to assorted factors including congestion window, maximum packet size, retry limit, recovery mechanism, backup mechanism and mobility. To overcome deficiency of original TCP, Several modifications have been introduced to improve network quality. The mobility is a major hurdle in degrading the performance of mobile wireless networks. In this paper, we introduce and implement new TCP variant University of Bridgeport (UB) that combines the features of TCP Westwood and Vegas. We examine the performance of TCP-UB, Vegas and Westwood using different realistic scenarios. NS2 simulator demonstrates the stability of TCP-UB as compared with TCP Vegas and Westwood in highly congested networks from the mobility point of view.

Delineating effects of tensor force on the density dependence of nuclear symmetry energy

description: In this talk, we report results of our recent studies to delineate effects of the tensor force on the density dependence of nuclear symmetry energy within phenomenological models. The tensor force active in the isosinglet neutron-proton interaction channel leads to appreciable depletion/population of nucleons below/above the Fermi surface in the single-nucleon momentum distribution in cold symmetric nuclear matter (SNM). We found that as a consequence of the high momentum tail in SNM the kinetic part of the symmetry energy $E^{kin}_{sym}(ρ)$ is significantly below the well-known Fermi gas model prediction of approximately $12.5 (ρ/ρ_0)^{2/3}$. With about 15% nucleons in the high momentum tail as indicated by the recent experiments at J-Lab by the CLAS Collaboration, the $E^{kin}_{sym}(ρ)$ is negligibly small. It even becomes negative when more nucleons are in the high momentum tail in SNM. These features have recently been confirmed by three independent studies based on the state-of-the-art microscopic nuclear many-body theories. In addition, we also estimate the second-order tensor force contribution to the potential part of the symmetry energy. Implications of these findings in extracting information about nuclear symmetry energy from nuclear reactions are discussed briefly.

description: Employee engagement is a fairly new phenomenon that continues to gather the attention of and implementation into organizations. While communication has been identified as a factor affecting engagement, no scientific research has concentrated solely on the relationship between the two. Taking this into account this study sought to find whether there is a relationship between internal communication and employee engagement.
Results indicated that there is a  positive relationship between factors of internal communication and  factors of employee engagement. The current research found that internal  communication is linked to commitment, discretionary effort, and  meaningful work; all factors of engagement. In addition, results also indicated that communication channel satisfaction and channel combinations were linked to employee engagement.

description: "Automatic Text categorization is the task of assigning an electronic document to one or more categories, based on its contents. There are many known techniques to efficiently solve categorization problems. Typically these techniques fall into two distinct methodologies which are either logic based or probabilistic. In recent years, many researchers have tried approaches which area hybrid of these two methodologies.
In this thesis, we deal with document categorization using Apriori Algorithm. The Apriori algorithm was initially developed for data mining and basket analysis applications in the relational databases. Although the technique is logic based, it also relies on the statistical characteristics of the data. As a part of this work, we will implement all the tools which are necessary to carry out automatic categorization using Apriori algorithm. We will also report on the categorization effectiveness by applying this technique to standard collections."

description: We propose a framework for engineering room temperature superconductivity through deliberate shaping of electron state spaces using Calabi-Yau geometries. The Ricci flow technique is applied to optimize the Calabi-Yau metrics to maximize attractive electron-electron interactions and critical temperature. Predictions are made for hypothetical materials with elevated Tc based on the engineered geometries of their quantum state spaces. Experimental validation approaches are suggested, including precision materials synthesis and characterization. Significant further efforts are essential to rigorously assess the theoretical concepts. However, even partial realization of the paradigm's potential could catalyze transformative advances in topological quantum materials.

description: We study the optimal design of a conductance network as a means for synchronizing a given set of oscillators. Synchronization is achieved when all oscillator voltages reach consensus, and performance is quantified by the mean-square deviation from the consensus value. We formulate optimization problems that address the trade-off between synchronization performance and the number and strength of oscillator couplings. We promote the sparsity of the coupling network by penalizing the number of interconnection links. For identical oscillators, we establish convexity of the optimization problem and demonstrate that the design problem can be formulated as a semidefinite program. Finally, for special classes of oscillator networks we derive explicit analytical expressions for the optimal conductance values.

title: Cold War fictions : gender, anticommunism, and the reconfiguration of the post-war United States
Creators: name: George, Aaron
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2012

description:
At the height of the Cold War, films and books that focused on anticommunist themes used depictions of communism as a way to promote a certain understanding of the roles of men and women in the post-war United States. The end of World War Two caused a reconfiguration of American society, providing a context in which cultural productions, such as these anticommunist Cold War narratives, could provide competing interpretations for what this transformation of society meant for men and women's roles in the United States. These films and books collectively construct an ideology that idolized the family as the most important unit of American life. At the same time, they condemned men who focused on work life instead of the family, in particular expressing the view that modern society turns men in conformists and effeminizes them. In the case of women, these narratives praised strong women who were wives, but stigmatized unmarried women who showed independence. This response to the changes in post-war America was one of a range of responses, but an important one. By exploring the relationship between anticommunism and a critique of gender, we better understand the nature of the Cold War, and how it was focused not only on political battles but also cultural ones concerning gender roles.
title: The Jewish impact on the social and economic manifestation of the Gibraltarian identity
Creators: name: Hernandez, Andrea
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2011

description:
The diverse fabric of life which comprises Gibraltar encompasses various ethnic backgrounds including but not limited to; Maltese, East Indian, Moroccan, Italian, Spaniard, and Sephardic Jews. The aim of this thesis is to examine the contribution of the Sephardic Jew in respect to the cultural and economic development of the Gibraltarian. This is accomplished by highlighting the historical relationships between the countries of Spain, England, and Morocco with their Jewish population, and secondly by using both primary and secondary research materials to delve into the daily life of a Sephardic Jew during the early colonial development of Gibraltar between 1704 to the mid nineteenth century when the social identity of the Gibraltarian manifested. Gibraltar's unique cultural identity is further examined by applying various components of cultural theorist's philosophies creating a distinct cultural ideology exclusive to Gibraltar. It is precisely the uniqueness of Gibraltar which makes it such a difficult area to categorize and yet such an intriguing region to study.
Functional calculus for semigroup generators via transference

description: In this article we apply a recently established transference principle in order to obtain the boundedness of certain functional calculi for semigroup generators. In particular, it is proved that if $-A$ generates a $C_0$-semigroup on a Hilbert space, then for each $τ>0$ the operator $A$ has a bounded calculus for the closed ideal of bounded holomorphic functions on a (sufficiently large) right half-plane that satisfy $f(z)=O(e^{-τ\textrm{Re}(z)})$ as $|z|\rightarrow \infty$. The bound of this calculus grows at most logarithmically as $τ\searrow 0$. As a consequence, $f(A)$ is a bounded operator for each holomorphic function $f$ (on a right half-plane) with polynomial decay at $\infty$. Then we show that each semigroup generator has a so-called (strong) $m$-bounded calculus for all $m\in\mathbb{N}$, and that this property characterizes semigroup generators. Similar results are obtained if the underlying Banach space is a UMD space. Upon restriction to so-called $γ$-bounded semigroups, the Hilbert space results actually hold in general Banach spaces.

title: Delayed diagnoses in the spectrum of gluten-averse conditions
Creators: name: Maki, Crystal Leigh
Publisher: name: Western Washington University

description:
Celiac Disease (CD), gluten allergy (GA), and non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) represent a highly varied disease grouping that affects individuals to varying degrees in response to the ingestion of certain cereal proteins (wheat, barley, rye, and sometimes oats). Generally, epidemiologic data on food allergy and intolerance is severely lacking; given current trends of under-diagnosis, prevalence of overt CD alone is estimated at 1-2% of European populations. There is a large and growing body of scientific literature that ascribes the complexity of various gluten-sensitive symptomology to multiple developmental pathways. This complexity translates largely in to delayed clinical diagnosis by medical professionals. Furthermore, public awareness of glutenaverse reactions as a serious medical condition remains low; there likely exists a sizable amount of the population that displays symptoms but does not pursue a gluten free diet due to a lack of knowledge. These delayed diagnoses result in an extremely decreased quality of life for those affected and for those with undiagnosed CD, there exists an increased risk for the development of refractory celiac with fatal Tcell lymphoma. The goal here is two-fold: (1) to conduct an epidemiologic pilot survey geared toward the characterization of contemporary paths to diagnosis of a small sample of individuals with CD, NCGS and GA and (2) to use the results of this survey to make suggestions for decreasing time to diagnosis for this widespread contemporary health issue.

title: Use of the first rib in the age-at-death assessment of adult female skeletal remains
Creators: name: Sullivan, Zachary A.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2012

description:
The accurate assessment of age-at-death from skeletal remains is a key factor in both forensic anthropology and bioarchaeology. Several methods of determining age at death are currently employed that utilize the age specific changes of several anatomical regions of the skeleton. However, as skeletal remains are often incomplete, it is useful to develop new methods based on previously unevaluated anatomy. This makes it more likely that sets of incomplete skeletal remains may include some feature that can be used to determine age-at-death. DiGangi et al. (2009) proposed that three anatomical regions of the first rib demonstrate age-correlated changes that can be used in this manner. Their research incorporated 470 male individuals of Balkan ancestry recovered from a mass gravesite in Kosovo. The exclusion of female individuals thus raises the question of the reliability of their method when applied to both sexes. This thesis attempted to validate DiGangi and colleagues' method by applying it to a set of female remains. The first ribs of 190 adult female skeletons from the William Bass Forensic Skeletal Collection at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville were evaluated and scored using the method proposed in the original publication. The results of this research indicate that the Rib 1 aging method proposed by DiGangi and colleagues does not adequately assess age-at-death in female skeletal remains. There is a high degree of variation in the timing of morphological changes in the first rib with respect to age. The suggested reasons for this variation include a high degree of subjectivity within the method, as well as the existence of significant biological variation between both sexes, as well as between populations of different ancestry. Future research in these areas is necessary to further our understanding of the methods of change in Rib 1 morphology, as well as to possibly remedy the sources of error in the utilization of the first rib in the assessment of age at death.

description: Intelligence as it occurs in nature demands a level of energy efficiency, speed, accuracy, and generalisability that current algorithms are not readily capable of emulating independently. There are also application areas such as swarm robotics or wireless sensor networks that rely upon relatively simple computational units to carry out complex tasks. Such applications operate under similar constraints (energy efficiency, speed, accuracy and generalisability) to biological organisms and can thus benefit from the computational strategies employed by nature. This thesis addresses the problems outlined above by focusing on information from neuroscience and existing bio-inspired approaches.

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Medical imaging plays an important role in early detection and treatment of prostate cancer. Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are two commonly used medical imaging technologies. Recent advances in technologies such as augmented reality (AR) have given rise to the idea of integrating medical images of anatomy, based on a computerised multi-modal image fusion, for use during clinical procedures. The goal of this study is to provide the necessary techniques for performing reliable MRI-TRUS fusion. Multimodal image fusion in this fashion would improve the clinical efficacy of image-based guidance for prostate cancer interventions.

description: Location-based services (LBSs) have entered into people’s daily lives with the evolution of telecommunication technologies. LBSs are the services that consider the locations of users to provide tailored information. We study a variety of location-based queries in urban environments. Mainly, we focus on processing such queries in the indoor space motivated by the abundance of applications of indoor LBSs and lack of existing studies supporting indoor spatial queries. Although the spatial query processing has been extensively studied for outdoor space, these techniques are not efficient when applied to indoor venues due to inherent differences in the topology of indoor space.

description: The Block Transform Coded, JPEG- a lossy image compression format has been used to keep storage and bandwidth requirements of digital image at practical levels. However, JPEG compression schemes may exhibit unwanted image artifacts to appear - such as the 'blocky' artifact found in smooth/monotone areas of an image, caused by the coarse quantization of DCT coefficients. A number of image filtering approaches have been analyzed in literature incorporating value-averaging filters in order to smooth out the discontinuities that appear across DCT block boundaries. Although some of these approaches are able to decrease the severity of these unwanted artifacts to some extent, other approaches have certain limitations that cause excessive blurring to high-contrast edges in the image. The image deblocking algorithm presented in this paper aims to filter the blocked boundaries. This is accomplished by employing smoothening, detection of blocked edges and then filtering the difference between the pixels containing the blocked edge. The deblocking algorithm presented has been successful in reducing blocky artifacts in an image and therefore increases the subjective as well as objective quality of the reconstructed image.

description: The high-energy QCD factorization for Deep Inelastic Scattering and for proton-nucleus collisions using Wilson line formalism and factorization in rapidity is discussed. We show that in DIS the factorization in rapidity reduces to the $k_{\rm T}$-factorization when the 2-gluon approximation is applied, provided that the composite Wilson line operator is used in the high-energy Operator Product Expansion. We then show that the inclusive forward cross-section in proton-nucleus collisions factorizes in parton distribution functions, fragmentation functions and dipole gluon distribution function at one-loop level.
