Quantitative Image Analysis for Objective Classification of Retinal Diseases
Creators: name: Le, David
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2023

description: As a neurovascular network, the retina can be a target of various systemic conditions and diseases. For example, diabetic retinopathy (DR), the microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), is a progressive sight-threatening disease that is asymptomatic in the early stages. As a transparent structure, the retina can be visualized noninvasively by various imaging modalities such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT-angiography (OCTA). Both modalities provide high-resolution cross-sectional imaging, with OCT enabling the visualization of multiple retinal layers and OCTA enabling visualization of the individual retinal vascular layers. In the early stages of eye diseases, digital quantitative biomarkers may be able to detect subtle neurovascular abnormalities. The development of quantitative OCT and OCTA characteristics may also be used in machine learning models for treatment assessment, disease detection and progression. Therefore, in this thesis we explore two aims. The first aim is the development of quantitative features in retinal images. In this aim, we quantified neurovascular abnormalities in the retina using OCT and OCTA features in retinopathies such as DR. The second aim is objective classification of retinopathy using retinal images. In this aim, we demonstrate deep learning for automated DR classification and artery-vein classification in OCTA. Additionally, we demonstrate deep learning OCTA construction using single-scan volumetric OCT. The development of quantitative features and application of AI in routine clinical use may help to increase efficiency of healthcare professionals with rapid and automated screening of retinal diseases.

Sexualbegleitung von erwachsenen Menschen mit einer kognitiven Beeinträchtigung: Der Weg zu einer selbstbestimmten Sexualität im stationären Setting
Creators: name: Lichtsteiner, Catharina
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Sexualität und Behinderung sind zwei in sich mit viel Scham und Unsicherheit behaftete Begriffe. Sexualität einerseits ist weitgreifend und betrifft nicht nur das körperliche Empfinden, sondern beinhaltet auch Gefühle wie Liebe und das Bedürfnis nach Beziehungen. Auch heute werden Sexualität und damit verbundene Themen teilweise noch tabuisiert. Im Zusammenhang mit Behinderung ist die Stigmatisierung noch grösser. Asexualität oder schamlos übertriebenes, sexuelles Verhalten sind die zwei häufigsten Vorurteile, die Menschen mit Beeinträchtigungen zugeschrieben werden, weshalb das Thema in der Behindertenbetreuung auch heute noch umgangen wird. Die Behindertenrechtkonvention konnte bezüglich der Rechte von Menschen mit Beeinträchtigung bereits erste wichtige Schritte einleiten. Die Umsetzung in die Praxis ist aber schwierig und es benötigt noch Zeit, bis die alten Normen ganz aufgelöst sind. Sexualität gehört zu den Menschenrechten, weshalb die individuellen sexuellen Wünsche jedes Menschen erfüllt werden sollen. Da Menschen mit kognitiven Beeinträchtigungen aber oft nicht richtig aufgeklärt und/oder begleitet werden, wird der Zugang zu diesem Recht behindert. Die Aufgabe der Sozialpädagogik besteht deshalb darin, Menschen mit kognitiven Beeinträchtigungen bedürfnisorientiert zu begleiten, sodass diese ihre Sexualität selbstbestimmt leben können. Sexualbegleitung ist herausfordernd und setzt ein hohes Mass an (Selbst)-Reflexion voraus. Ziel dieser Bachelorarbeit ist es, die Wichtigkeit des Themas Sexualität und Behinderung darzulegen, damit verbundene Herausforderungen und davon abgeleitete Handlungsmöglichkeiten für die Sexualbegleitung in der stationären Sozialpädagogik aufzuzeigen.

description: Coronal-hole jets occur ubiquitously in solar coronal holes, at EUV and X-ray bright points associated with intrusions of minority magnetic polarity. The embedded-bipole model for these jets posits that they are driven by explosive, fast reconnection between the stressed closed field of the embedded bipole and the open field of the surrounding coronal hole. Previous numerical studies in Cartesian geometry, assuming uniform ambient magnetic field and plasma while neglecting gravity and solar wind, demonstrated that the model is robust and can produce jet-like events in simple configurations. We have extended these investigations by including spherical geometry, gravity, and solar wind in a nonuniform, coronal hole-like ambient atmosphere. Our simulations confirm that the jet is initiated by the onset of a kink-like instability of the internal closed field, which induces a burst of reconnection between the closed and external open field, launching a helical jet. Our new results demonstrate that the jet propagation is sustained through the outer corona, in the form of a traveling nonlinear Alfven wave front trailed by slower-moving plasma density enhancements that are compressed and accelerated by the wave. This finding agrees well with observations of white-light coronal-hole jets, and can explain microstreams and torsional Alfven waves detected in situ in the solar wind. We also use our numerical results to deduce scaling relationships between properties of the coronal source region and the characteristics of the resulting jet, which can be tested against observations.

description: We present a new approach to engineering broadband sources of entangled photon pairs for quantum interferometry. The source is based on quasi-phase-matched spontaneous parametric down conversion in a titanium diffused periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide with a strongly-chirped poling period. The proposed non-standard asymmetric poling mitigates phase distortions associated with the process of chirping. Asymmetric poling significantly broadens the entangled source bandwidth while preserving high visibility quantum interferometric sensing.

description: We propose a model that accounts for the budding transition of asymmetric two-component lipid domains, where the two monolayers (leaflets) have different average compositions controlled by independent chemical potentials. Assuming a coupling between the local curvature and local lipid composition in each of the leaflets, we discuss the morphology and thermodynamic behavior of asymmetric lipid domains. The membrane free-energy contains three contributions: the bending energy, the line tension, and a Landau free-energy for a lateral phase separation. Within a mean-field treatment, we obtain various phase diagrams containing fully budded, dimpled, and flat states as a function of the two leaflet compositions. The global phase behavior is analyzed, and depending on system parameters, the phase diagrams include one-phase, two-phase and three-phase regions. In particular, we predict various phase coexistence regions between different morphologies of domains, which may be observed in multi-component membranes or vesicles.

description: Prototyping interactive hardware artifacts is an iterative process that can produce significant amounts of waste. This problem becomes particularly apparent in teaching, when multiple students build the same artifact as an exercise and components can break when used improperly. In the context of a university course on tangible interaction, we explored how material found in the trash could be used as a resource for prototyping interactive artifacts. We could source interesting components and found that a bottom-up prototyping approach based on those components opened up new design spaces. Furthermore, as we relied on trash as a resource, we were able to considerably reduce waste during the course.
The Effect of Product packaging on Consumer Buying Behavior: In the Case of Repi Wilmar soap and detergent S.C.
Creators: name: Shelemew, Hayat
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: Packaging plays a vital role in today's business environment and is considered as one of the influencing factor on consumers buying behavior. The purpose of this study was to explain the effect of product packaging on consumer buying behavior of Repi Wilmar soap and detergents. The researcher used quantitative approach in order to achieve the objectives of this study. The researcher also used explanatory research since it tries to examine the relationship of independent variables color, graphics, size, shape, information and technology with the dependent variable consumer buying behavior. Using convenience sampling a structured questionnaire written both in Amahric and English was distributed to 384 customers of Shoa supermarket buyers in Addis Ababa. 366 questionnaires where returned which gave the response rate of 95%. But during the data cleaning process only 355 questionnaires were used for statistical analysis. SPSS 20.0 was used to analyze the data collected. The Data collected were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression. The finding shows that all the six packaging elements packaging color, graphics, size, shape, products information and technology have positive and moderate relationship with consumer buying behavior with p < 0.01 and Pearson Correlation value of r = 0.472, r = 0.455, r = 0.569, r=0.481, r = 0.623 and r = 0.584 respectively. The finding also shows that color, size, information provided and technology used on packaging have a positive and significant effect on consumer buying behavior with beta value of 0.141, 0.145, 0.308, 0.198. Whereas, graphics and shape of packaging had a positive but insignificant relationship with consumer buying behavior of Repi Wilmar soap and detergent products. Based on the result of the study, it was recommended that soap and detergent companies should highly focus on packaging elements which have high impact on consumer buying behavior

description: (Ga,In)As/GaAs/Ga(As,Sb) multi-quantum well heterostructures have been investigated using continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy at various temperatures. A complex interplay was observed between the excitonic type-II transitions with electrons in the (Ga,In)As well and holes in the Ga(As,Sb) well and the type-I excitons in the (Ga,In)As and Ga(As,Sb) wells. The type-II luminescence exhibits a strongly non-exponential temporal behavior below a critical temperature of Tc = 70K. The transients were analyzed in the framework of a rate-equation model. It was found that the exciton relaxation and hopping in the localized states of the disordered ternary Ga(As,Sb) are the decisive processes to describe the dynamics of the type-II excitons correctly.
Sort well with energy-constrained comparisons

Subjects: subject: Data Structures and Algorithms (cs.DS)

description: We study very simple sorting algorithms based on a probabilistic comparator model. In our model, errors in comparing two elements are due to (1) the energy or effort put in the comparison and (2) the difference between the compared elements. Such algorithms keep comparing pairs of randomly chosen elements, and they correspond to Markovian processes. The study of these Markov chains reveals an interesting phenomenon. Namely, in several cases, the algorithm which repeatedly compares only adjacent elements is better than the one making arbitrary comparisons: on the long-run, the former algorithm produces sequences that are "better sorted". The analysis of the underlying Markov chain poses new interesting questions as the latter algorithm yields a non-reversible chain and therefore its stationary distribution seems difficult to calculate explicitly.

description: Photometry from the Tycho-2, 2MASS, and WISE catalogues for clump and branch giants at a distance up to 25 kpc toward the Galactic poles has allowed the variations of various characteristics of the infrared interstellar extinction law with distance to be analyzed. The results obtained by the extinction law extrapolation method are consistent for different classes of stars and different characteristics as well as with previous studies. The conventional extinction law with a low infrared extinction is characteristic of only a thin layer no farther than 100 pc from the Galactic plane and of two thin layers near $Z=-600$ and $+500$ pc. Far from the Galactic plane, in the Galactic halo, the infrared extinction law is different: the extinction in the $Ks$, $W1$, $W2$, $W3$, and $W4$ bands is, respectively, $0.17$, $0.16$, $0.16$, $0.07$, and $0.03$ of the extinction in the $V$ band. The accuracy of these coefficients is $0.03$. If the extinction law reflects primarily the grain size distribution, then the fraction of large dust grains far from the Galactic plane is greater than that in the circumsolar interstellar medium.

Analytical and Finite Element Analysis of Rail Deflection and Bending Stress Under Different Sleeper Spacing
Creators: name: Lemmi, Gurmessa
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2017

description: The amount of wheel load that distributed through each sleeper depends on the track bed quality, sleeper type and sleeper space. The relationship between applied loads, track stresses, and track deformations are factors to be considered in proper track design and maintenance. Any defects and changes in track components will produce defects in rails in turn. Among these results rails bending stress, rails deflection and rails support loads are from the most parameters to be considered during the design of rail track. This research has investigated the effects of sleeper spacing, particularly the rails deflection, the induced rail bending stresses and the rail supporting force under several concentrated (Wheel) moving loads and single wheel load. Finite element method model and beam on elastic foundation (BOEF) track model have been used to get numerical and analytical solutions respectively. The Finite element method analysis was carried out in ANSYS work bench. Results from both analyses were analyzed by quantitative approach and compared together. Train axle arrangements and wheel static load have been taken from rolling stock proposed for Sabata- Mieso-Djibute Line which is identified as "HXD1C high power AC drive six-axle (7200kw) freight electric locomotive". The Analysis shows numerical analysis gives higher values of rail deflection; lower values of rail supporting force and rail bending stress than analytical analysis. On the other hand the analytical analysis shows that multiple wheel loads gives higher values of rail deflection and rail supporting force but lower values of rail bending stress than single wheel load while numerical analysis shows single wheel load gives higher values (rail deflection, rail supporting force and rail bending stress) than multiple wheel loads. This one occurred due to the fact that the effect of one axle load gives positive value while the other gives negative values. The summation of the positive and negative values will be lower than the single positive value obtained from single wheel load. The differences of these values depend on the sleeper space and rail track bed quality.

description: Noncontiguous transmission schemes combined with high power-efficiency requirements pose big challenges for radio transmitter and power amplifier (PA) design and implementation. Due to the nonlinear nature of the PA, severe unwanted emissions can occur, which can potentially interfere with neighboring channel signals or even desensitize the own receiver in frequency division duplexing (FDD) transceivers. In this article, to suppress such unwanted emissions, a low-complexity sub-band DPD solution, specifically tailored for spectrally noncontiguous transmission schemes in low-cost devices, is proposed. The proposed technique aims at mitigating only the selected spurious intermodulation distortion components at the PA output, hence allowing for substantially reduced processing complexity compared to classical linearization solutions. Furthermore, novel decorrelation based parameter learning solutions are also proposed and formulated, which offer reduced computing complexity in parameter estimation as well as the ability to track time-varying features adaptively. Comprehensive simulation and RF measurement results are provided, using a commercial LTE-Advanced mobile PA, to evaluate and validate the effectiveness of the proposed solution in real world scenarios. The obtained results demonstrate that highly efficient spurious component suppression can be obtained using the proposed solutions.

description: Reclamation of process wastewater is a key to water resources conservation and sustainability. Since brewery is inherently associated with the use of considerable amount of water, this study was undertaken to investigate the appropriate treatment of wastewater generated by Heineken brewery for the possibility of reuse. For this work, samples of wastewater were collected and characterized. Series of experiments were conducted to determine the amount of alum to use by Jar test, the property of the sand using sieve analysis and finally treatment of the wastewater was carried out using fixed bed filtration column consisting of granular activated carbon and sand. The characterization of the raw wastewater results obtained before application of the treatment for the biologically treated wastewater showed that 67.11NTU, 89.33 mg/l, 4.4 mg/l, 1.06 mg/l, 4.3mg/l and 1.92mS/cm for Turbidity, COD, TN, Ammonia, TP and EC respectively. Then Series of jar test experiments were conducted in which the efficiencies of ferric chloride and alum were compared with in a coagulation/flocculation process at discharge pH. Overall, alum was found to be a more preferable coagulant at a dosage of 40mg/l. After wards fixed bed filtration column was constructed from Granular activated carbon and Mojo sand. The sand was characterized by using sieve analysis and its uniformity coefficient, density and effective size is found to be 5.67, 1.66 g/ml, 0.15 – 0.85 mm respectively. Sample results of the analysis after using the fixed bed filtration showed that overall concentration of turbidity were reduced from 73 NTU to 25.92 NTU and COD from 98 mg/l to 32.02mg/l which didn't fit with the specified standards for industrial reuse, where as for the conventional filtration, it reduced to 2.22 NTU and 3mg/l which directly fits with the standards set by EPA, WHO and Heineken for industrial reuse. So a successive additional treatment of TN, Ammonia, TP and EC were done and resulted in reduction from 4.4 mg/l, 1.06 mg/l, 4.3mg/l and 1.92mS/cm to 0 mg/l, 0 mg/l, 0mg/l and 0.65mS/cm. These results showed that coagulation/flocculation and sedimentation stage improve the subsequent filtration process. These experimental results showed that the effluent from conventional treatment could be reused for boiler feed, cooling and process water.

Thermal and Mechanical Analysis of A.A. LRT Brake Disc from Composite Material by FEM
Creators: name: Fitsum, Getaneh
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2015

description: The modeling of thermal and mechanical effects during braking has become increasingly important in product design in different transport means, road vehicles, airplanes, railway vehicles, and so forth. The thermal and mechanical analysis is a very important stage in the study of braking systems, especially of railway vehicles where it is necessary to brake huge masses because the thermal load of a braked railway disc prevails compared to other types of loads. In the braking phase, kinetic energy transforms into thermal energy resulting in intense heating and high temperature states of railway discs. Thus induced thermal loads determine thermo-mechanical behavior of the structure of railway discs. In cases of thermal overloads, which mainly occur as a result of long term braking on down grade railroads and braking to standstill on a flat railroad, the generation of stresses and deformations occurs whose consequences are the appearance of cracks on the discs, brake judder, thermo-elastic instability and finally brake disc failure. The importance to precisely determine the temperature distribution caused by the transfer process of the heat generated during braking due to the friction on contact surfaces of the braking system makes it a challenging research task. Therefore, analytical and numerical modeling of thermal and mechanical analysis during long term braking for maintaining a constant speed and braking to standstill afterwards on a down grade railroad and braking to a standstill on a flat track is processed in detail in this research. Even though brake disc is commonly made from cast iron, an attempt has been made to investigate the suitable composite material which is lighter than cast iron and has good young's modulus, yield strength and density properties. Aluminum base metal matrix composite has a promising friction and wear behavior when used as a disc brake. Brake disc made from SiC/6061Al alloy composite material is used and an investigation is made on thermal and mechanical loads analysis for Addis Ababa LRT EW route brake applications. Consequently the result revealed that SiC/6061Al alloy composite material can effectively enhance the thermal and mechanical performance of the brake disc.

description: We demonstrate that an all-antiferromagnetic tunnel junction with current perpendicular to the plane geometry can be used as an efficient spintronics device with potential high frequency operation. By using state-of-the-art density functional theory combined with quantum transport, we show that the Néel vector of the electrodes can be manipulated by spin-transfer torque. This is staggered over the two different magnetic sublattices and can generate dynamics and switching. At the same time the different magnetization states of the junction can be read by standard tunnelling magnetoresistance. Calculations are performed for CuMnAs$|$GaP$|$CuMnAs junctions with different surface terminations between the anti-ferromagnetic CuMnAs electrodes and the insulating GaP spacer. In particular we find that the torque remains staggered regardless of the termination, while the magnetoresistance depends on the microscopic details of the interface.

Biodiesel Production from Consortium of Microalgae
Creators: name: Ayalew, Birhanu
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2014

description: The aim of the research work is to determine and analyze the factors that affect the yield of biodiesel production from algal biomass and to optimize the processing conditions. Microalgae oil was extracted from dried and grinded consortium microalgae through soxhlet extraction method and the physicochemical properties were determined. Design Expert 7.0.0 software application was used to statistically analyze data obtained from experimental work. The factors that affect the biodiesel yield were investigated. The density, viscosity, acid value, saponification value and free fatty acids were recorded as 0.94g/ml, 41.85mm2/s, 4.63mgKOH/g of oil, 201.72mg/g of oil, and 2.32% respectively. Alkali catalytic methanol transesterification method was employed to produce biodiesel from the oil and to improve the physicochemical properties of the oil. Temperature is found to be the factor that highly affects the yield of biodiesel. An optimum yield of 89.61% (44.8ml) biodiesel was obtained at reaction temperature of 53.270c, 1.99% catalyst and 6.18 alchol to oil molar ratio. The physicochemical properties of the optimum obtained biodiesl were determined and the results were compared with the ASTM and EN standards. The physicochemical properties were recorded as density (0.89g/ml), viscosity (5.5mm2/s), acid value (0.78mgKOH/g of oil), moisture content (0.026%w/w), ash content (0.022%), free fatty acid (0.39%). The results showed that the fuel properties are within the ASTM and EN standards and it suggests the potential of algal oil as a feedstock for biodiesel industry which could be exploited as an alternative source of fuel. Key Words: Biodiesel, Algal Biomass, Soxhlet Extraction, Transesterification & Physicochemical Properties.

description: We re-examine the deuteron elastic breakup cross sections on 12C and 10Be at low incident energies, for which a serious discrepancy between the continuum-discretized coupled-channels method (CDCC) and the Faddeev-Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas theory (FAGS) was pointed out. We show the closed-channels neglected in the preceding study affect significantly the breakup cross section calculated with CDCC, resulting in good agreement with the result of FAGS.

description: Finding data on race, racialized populations, and anti-racism in Canada can be a complex process when conducting research. One source of data is the Census of Canada which has been collecting socio-demographic data since 1871. However, the collection of racial, ethnic, or Indigenous data has changed throughout the years and from Census to Census. This presentation will detail how the Census of Canada has asked questions about ethno-racial and Indigenous identity over time, and some of the challenges with searching for ethno-racial data in Canada. The presenters will also share an online guide they created to help librarians and researchers answer ethno-racial data questions within the Canadian context.
Two-Channel Kondo Physics in a Majorana Island Coupled to a Josephson Junction

description: We study a Majorana island coupled to a bulk superconductor via a Josephson junction and to multiple external normal leads. In the absence of the Josephson coupling, the system displays a topological Kondo state, which had been largely studied recently. However, we find that this state is unstable even to small Josephson coupling, which instead leads at low temperature $T$ to a new fixed point. Most interesting is the case of three external leads, forming a minimal electronic realization of the long sought two-channel Kondo effect. While the $T=0$ conductance corresponds to simple resonant Andreev reflection, the leading $T$ dependence forms an experimental fingerprint for non-Fermi liquid properties.

description: Railway communication system is an essential part of the railway system. It is the back bone for the railway operation and management, to control and monitor the different subsystems of the railway system. Thus, the data communication services required for the signaling and interlocking system, for passenger information at station terminals, for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and telemetry data which are used for monitoring and management of other subsystems such as power should be safe, reliable, effective and efficient. Thus, there is no doubt taking performance investigation of the railway communication system. Because, capabilities and performance of the railway communication systems (subsystems) degrade the safety, reliability, effectiveness and efficiency, and also can affect the railway operation. Assessing performance investigation in Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit (AALRT) communication system is necessary to determine whether or not there is a performance problem requiring action. There are performance problems occurred currently as observed in the AALRT communication system. Most of the performance problems occurred in the transmission system, such as communication failure alarm type 56%, service failure alarm type 8% and equipment failure alarm type 36%. These performance problems could affected the day to day activities of the AALRT such as unable to transmit quickly, accurately and reliably the information and/or data, unable to make emergency calls and fail to transport data for signal system; it makes the dispatcher of the control center unable to real-time monitor important areas like station platforms, important level crossing of line, substation and switch section of depot. This thesis found out all the details or facts and accomplishment about the communication system of the Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit. It also identified, analyzed and studied the root causes for the performance problems; discussed their impact and effect on the system. It also proposed a frame work of KPI parameters for the performance investigation and effective maintenance of the AALRT communication system.
