A coherent point drift algorithm for breast image registration via surface markers
(2017-03-01)
Breast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a reliable imaging tool for localization and
evaluation of lesions prior to breast conserving surgery (BCS). MR images typically will
be used to determine the size and location ...
Component-based modeling for Android application testing
(2017-04-01)
The rising popularity of Android and the component-based structure of its apps have
motivated the need for automated model-based testing techniques on Android plat-
form. Prior researches have primarily focused on the ...
An adaptive crowdsourced investigation of word abbreviation techniques for text visualizations
(2017-04-01)
A known problem in information visualization labeling is when the text is too long to fit
in the label space. There are some common known techniques used in order to solve this
problem like setting a very small font size. ...
Identifying lesions in paediatric epilepsy using morphometric and textural analysis of magnetic resonance images
(2017-12-01)
We develop an image processing pipeline on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) sequences to identify features of Focal Cortical Dysplasia (FCD) in patients with MRIvisible FCD. We aim to use a computer-aided diagnosis system ...
Polymer translocation: a nonequilibrium process
(2017-04-07)
3D Langevin dynamics simulations of the capture and translocation of polymers
through a nanopore are conducted for several polymer lengths and two
different Péclet values (that quantify the drift-diffusion balance of the ...
Adaptive learning game to personalize occupational health and safety training
(2017-11-01)
In 2012, the Association of Workers’ Compensation Boards of Canada recorded approximately a quarter-million workplace injuries, a staggering figure keeping in mind that some incidents go undocumented. It is important that ...
The transcription factor, fixK, plays a central role in carbon source metabolism and cellulose synthesis in Komagataeibacter species
(2017-07-01)
Komagataeibacter xylinus ATCC 53582 and K. hansenii ATCC 23769 are model bacterial cellulose producers. This thesis investigated both carbon source utilization and the role that a Crp/Fnr transcription factor, FixK, plays ...
Determining optimal flight paths for cellular network connectivity for the transmission of real-time physiological data in support of big data analytics during airborne critical care transport
(2017-02-01)
This thesis presents a methodology for determining the optimal flight paths between two geographical points based on distance and cellular reception over the path. This methodology consists of two main concepts: coverage ...
Vixen: a games user research tool for collection and interactive visualization of usertesting data
(2017-08-01)
Visualization techniques can facilitate the understanding and exploration of relationships in usertesting data. For example, data from players' in-game movement can be combined with interview data or questionnaire results. ...
Exploring game analytics solutions for data-driven user research in indie studios
(2017-08-01)
User research methodologies can be applied to games for the purposes of evaluating and improving them. Performing user testing during game development can highlight issues in gameplay early on, generally improving the end ...
