Textension: Digitally Augmenting Document Spaces in Analog Texts
(DHQ, 2019)
In this paper, we present a system that automatically adds visualizations and natural language processing applications to analog texts, using any web-based device with a camera. After taking a picture of a particular page ...
Saliency Deficit and Motion Outlier Detection in Animated Scatterplots
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2019-05-04)
We report the results of a crowdsourced experiment that measured the accuracy of motion outlier detection in multivariate, animated scatterplots. The targets were outliers either in speed or direction of motion, and were ...
Investigation into the role of binding loop E on the function of the nematode cys-loop GABA receptor.
(2014-12-01)
Haemonchus contortus is a parasitic nematode that infects the abomasum of
ruminants. While several classes of anthelmintic drugs exist to control nematode infections,
H. contortus is resistant to all of them. Therefore, ...
Elucidation of the lipid degradation process in soft tissue and fluid during decomposition, in the presence and absence of insects.
(2014-08-01)
Decomposition has been extensively studied in the presence of insects, however
the process in the absence of insects has been considerably less documented. In this
study, the decomposition process was compared between ...
Computational and laboratory investigations of a model of blood droplet flight for forensic applications
(2014-01-01)
Game developers strive to maximize immersion and engagement,
to emotionally involve the audience in their material. One technique
used to increase engagement is the development of new technologies,
such as Stereoscopic ...
Forward genetic analysis of cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor resistance and wall hydrolysis sensitivity.
(2014-09-01)
The functional analysis of components involved in cellulose biosynthesis is central in
understanding cell wall assembly and structure in plants. We conducted screens using the
herbicides, isoxaben and flupoxam which inhibit ...
The production and characterization of ceramic carbon electrode materials for CuCl-HCl electrolysis.
(2013-07-01)
Current H2 gas supplies are primarily produced through steam methane reforming and other fossil fuel based processes. This lack of viable large scale and environmentally friendly H2 gas production has hindered the wide ...
Secure and privacy-preserving fog-assisted vehicular crowdsensing
(2018-08-01)
Vehicular crowdsensing (VCS) is an emerging paradigm where vehicles use onboard sensors to collect and share data with the aim of measuring phenomena of common interest. VCS has allowed for automated control as well as ...
Towards a concurrent implementation of keyword search over relational databases.
(2014-06-01)
Vast amounts of data are stored in relational databases. Traditionally, querying this data required a deep understanding of the underlying schema in addition to knowledge of a query language such as structured query language ...
The effects of select non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on green and brown hydra
(2014-04-01)
Effluent pharmaceuticals are released at low concentrations into aquatic ecosystems through waste water treatment plants (WWTPs). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are important contaminants in water cycles. ...
