The importance of genealogy in determining genetic associations with complex traits
(University of Chicago Press: American Journal of Human Genetics, 2001-11) -
Improving design for sequential instructions
(2010-05-17)Developing effective instructions for complex, sequential tasks is a challenging information design problem. The focus of this thesis is on the non-verbal, visual explanations. This thesis attempts to define a set of ... -
Improving electronics with use: design to wear
(2009-06)Today's products are designed to exude high fashion and flawless beauty, which are inevitably susceptible to deterioration over time, making the aesthetic value disappear due to wear and tear. The purpose of this thesis ... -
In all directions: an investigation of multidirectional camera-centric rigs in hypothetical space
(2008-05)Because the world as we know it is quite often dominated by visual information, most human beings have learned to extract and interpolate data efficiently from what they perceive optically. With the advent of new technologies, ... -
In dreams
(2009-11-22)Dreams are a nightly phenomenon that everyone experiences. They are full of vivid imagery, imagination, and emotion. Using dreams as a rich source of inspiration I created wooden objects and furniture for the bedroom, the ... -

(2002-04-26)This study empirically investigates the stock market and financial performance in years surrounding founder CEO succession during the period 1990 through 1995. The second objective of this study is to examine, using the ... -
Including people who are deaf in holiday fun
(abilities, 2000-01)The National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID), in New York, has produced a set of holiday tips to make the season merry for members of the workplace who have a hearing disability. -
Incorporation of a time-dependent thermodynamic model and a radiation propagation model into infrared three-dimensional synthetic image generation
(The International Society for Optical Engineering (SPIE), 1992-07)A model is presented for generation of synthetic images representing what an airborne or satellite thermal infrared imaging sensor would record. The scene and the atmosphere are modeled spectrally with final bandwidth ... -
Incorporation of texture in multispectral synthetic image generation tools
(The International Society for Optical Engineering (SPIE), 1995-06)The Digital Imaging and Remote Sensing Synthetic Image Generation (DIRSIG) model emphasizes quantitative prediction of the radiance reaching sensors with bandpass values between 0.28 and 20.0 jim. The model embodies ... -
Increasing awareness of recycling programs for elementary aged children through interactive multimedia
(1999-05-06)The purpose of this thesis is to create an effective interactive multimedia training method for elementary aged children, on recycling awareness. The age group chosen for this project is children 8 to 11. This report ... -
Incremental Data Mining and Model Validity Over Time

Indication, from Pioneer 10/11, Galileo, and Ulysses data, of an apparent anomalous, weak, long-range acceleration
(American Physical Society, 1998-10-05)Radio metric data from the Pioneer 10/11, Galileo, and Ulysses spacecraft indicate an apparent anomalous, constant, acceleration acting on the spacecraft with a magnitude $\sim 8.5\times 10^{-8}$ cm/s$^2$, directed towards ... -
Indirect effects of beech bark disease on sugar maple seedling survival
(National Research Council Canada: Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2003)To investigate the mechanisms of indirect effects of the increased presence of American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) saplings on sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) seedling survival, I conducted several experiments in ... -
Induction of hairy roots on cultivated soybean genotypes and their use to propagate the soybean cyst nematode.
(American Phytopathological Society: Phytopathology, 1990)Ten soybean (Glycine max ) genotypes were evaluated for hairy root induction by four strains of Agrobacterium rhizogenes . Influence of inoculation site was assessed by infecting hypocotyls and cotyledons on germinated ... -
Induction of pseudoactinorhizae by the plant pathogen Agrobacterium rhizogenes
(American Society of Plant Biologists: Plant Physiology, 1992-02)Infection of Elaeagnus angustifolia cotyledonary wounds by Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain NCPPB 2659 resulted in the formation of pseudoactinorhizae on roots differentiated from callus. These pseudoactinorhizal root nodules ... -
Industry academia partnership-sustaining growth and competitiveness
(PennWell Corporation: SMT Magazine, 2008) -
The influence of boundary information on the perception of color
(Optical Society of America, 1997-05)The integration of color and form to produce a unified percept is a central problem in vision research. We know that the spatial arrangement of colored stimuli influences their detectability. In the gap effect, for ...
