A Sequence Based Approach for Predicting Clinical Events
The data associated to each patient increases almost linearly as the patient flows through the continuum of care. Analysis of the data collected during a patient’s admission to the hospital reveals that it grows vertically ... -
A Sequentialization of Features Approach to Complex Event Sequence Prediction
Sequence based prediction takes an ordered list of events as input and makes predictions about the next event. Most existing work on sequence based prediction assumes that the sequences are simple, i.e. consisting of symbols ... -
A Soft-Boiled Potato
It’s about as fun as watching paint dry. This play takes place in the home of aging drag queen Mizz Coral Durant as her borders with reality dissolve along with her relationship with man- servant Joey Boy. As the character ... -
A Study of Correlations Between Trait Affect and Phishing Susceptibility
Although phishing emails have been in use for decades, these social engineering attacks are still prevalent because they keep working; in fact, they are a leading cause of data breaches. In this research, I attempt to ... -
A Tiny Miniature World Where the Proportions Are Slightly Off
I continually saw visions of a massive, black-roofed carnival structure being destroyed in the middle of the ocean. It stood on thin, wooden posts encrusted in mussels, and was intertwined with slides and rollercoasters ... -
A Two-layer Authentication Using Voiceprint for Voice Assistants
Voice assistants are a ubiquitous service of contemporary daily life. Their intuitive use and 24-hour-a-day convenience make them popular and have more users. However, the security of voice assistants does not increase as ... -
A[not]her Nature
A[not]her Nature is a collection of collage poems (centos) written in response to environmental issues. The language in many of these poems is drawn from, or responds to, seminal works of nature writing in an attempt to ... -
Accelerating large-scale simulations of cortical neuronal network development
(2012-09-13)Cultured dissociated cortical cells grown into networks on mult-electrode arrays are used to investigate neuronal network development, activity, plasticity, response to stimuli, the effects of pharmacological agents, etc. ... -
ACRAS A Hybrid Graphical User-Authentication System
The traditional text-based password is ubiquitous in today's computing environment, yet creation and maintenance of both usable and secure passwords remains one of the largest challenges in modern computing. This project ... -
