THREATS TO SAFETY OF JOURNALISTS IN PAKISTAN – RISK ASSESSMENT BY JOURNALISTS AT HIGH RISK
(2017)Designed in the light of UNESCO’s academic research agenda on the topic of safety of journalists, the study examines opinions and actions of Pakistani journalists at high risk: how they view safety issues, and if they ... -
Three-Dimensional Anti-Jamming Array Processing for GNSS-Based Navigational Aid Inspection
(2023-05-12)Global Navigational Satellite System (GNSS) Radio Frequency (RF) links are susceptible to interference. In signal compromised environments, the capability to combat RF interference (such as jamming) is necessary. Techniques ... -
Through the Blue Lens: Negative Publicity, Cognition, and Professional Self-Representation in Law Enforcement Officers
(2018-12)Increased access to digital media has allowed for widespread proliferation of news coverage. Unfortunately, recent research has demonstrated a variety of acute negative outcomes associated with exposure to disturbing ... -
Thyroid nodule ultrasound image analysis and feature extraction
(2018-05-11)In this study, I introduce a novel workflow for extracting useful features in thyroid ultrasound images using deep learning and machine learning methods. The methodology combines Convolutional Auto-Encoder, Local Binary ... -
TICK ABUNDANCE AND HABITAT DYNAMICS IN URBAN PARKS: A STUDY OF MICRO- AND MACRO- HABITAT INFLUENCES IN THE OKLAHOMA CITY METROPOLITAN AREA
(2024-05-10)Most studies on tickborne diseases in the U.S. have been concentrated in suburban and rural areas. This has led to a lack of understanding about the risks of such diseases in urban settings, where environmental conditions ... -
TIME AND FREQUENCY CHARACTERISTIC OF 802.11AX
(2019-12-12)Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is a wireless communication system that connects two or more devices using radio frequency to form a local network (LAN). WLAN is used inside buildings (e.g., apartment, campus, train ... -
TIME COURSE OF CHANGE IN CRITICAL TORQUE AND IMPULSE ABOVE CRITICAL TORQUE FOLLOWING EXERCISE-INDUCED MUSCLE DAMAGE
(2018-05-11)Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is a result of high-force eccentric contractions and can lead to significant alterations in the structure and function of skeletal muscles. Critical torque (CT) and the impulse above ... -

A time-aware LSTM approach to predict tumor size and survival month in non-small cell lung cancer
(2022-08-04)Recent advances in long short-term memory (LSTM) networks have enabled us to handle sequential and time-series data. However, some applications of LSTM networks in the healthcare domain have produced suboptimal performances, ... -
TIME-DEPENDENT DENSITY FUNCTIONAL THEORY STUDIES OF CHARGE TRANSFER IN OXYGEN DISSOCIATION ON SILVER NANOPARTICLE
(2020)We performed calculations to study the dominating charge transfer mechanism in an plasmon-mediated catalytic reaction, oxygen dissociation on Ag nanoparticles (NPs) by using time-dependent density functional theory. Two ... -
To Be a Better Teacher: A Critical Self-Reflection
(2024-05-10)In this paper, I aimed to answer the following questions in order to find potential avenues of improving my present conditions as a teacher: What does it mean to be a teacher? What will it take to be a better teacher? I ... -
“TO SACRIFICE THE VITAL RHYTHMS OF THEIR BEING”: IMPAIRMENT, RESISTANCE, AND INDUSTRIAL CRISIS IN SÃO JERÔNIMO, RIO GRANDE DO SUL, 1944-1964
(2019)This thesis mainly examines how Brazilian coalminers dealt with the consequences and opportunities presented them through Retirement and Pensions Institutes in a period of national and global tumult from 1942 to 1947. An ... -
Toolbox and Post-Processing Applications for Automotive Radar
(2021-12-17)In recent years, companies have pushed the limits to offer partial and fully autonomous driving systems. All vehicles now have a wide array of sensors to aid in driving, ranging from lane assist to automated parallel ... -
Top-down Thermal Proteome Profiling using Mass Spectrometry on Human Plasma Proteins
(2022-12-16)Proteins play vital roles in biological systems; hence, the characterization of protein function is crucial for better understanding of complex cellular systems. The study of biological function of proteins at the proteome ... -
Tornado proximity soundings from the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data
(2002)Thermodynamic soundings have been constructed from the reanalysis dataset produced by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). This was done to expand ... -
Tortuosity of Tight Rocks
(2022-05)Tortuosity is a rock property that controls transport processes in porous media. It is essential in advective, diffusive transport and flow of electric current, especially in tight rocks which are characterized by low ... -
