Data Provenance for Multi-Agent Models in a Distributed Memory
Multi-agent systems (MAS) assist with studying emergent collective behavior of individual entities in social, biological, economic, network, and physical systems. Applied to MAS, data provenance can support agent-based ... -
Deciphering Protein Complex Structures from Cryo-electron Microscopy Maps using Deep Learning
Information about macromolecular structure of protein complexes such as SARS-CoV-2, and related cellular and molecular mechanisms can assist the search for vaccines and drug development processes. To obtain such structural ... -
Deep Learning Based CT Image Reconstruction
As a common medical imaging method, Computed Tomography (CT) can create tomographic images using X-ray data acquired from around the human body. However, high quality and adequately sampled X-ray measurement data are not ... -
Deep Learning based Intrusion Detection System for Internet of Things
With the increase in number of Internet connected devices, security and privacy concerns are the major obstacles impeding the widespread adoption of Internet of Things (IoT). Securing IoT has become a huge area of concern ... -
Deep Learning for Validating Resolution and Detecting Secondary Structure Elements of Proteins in 3D Cryo-Electron Microscopy Images
Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is becoming the imaging method of choice for determining protein structures. Many atomic structures have been resolved based on an exponentially growing number of published three-dimensional ... -
Deep Learning to Predict Protein Backbone Structure from High-Resolution Cryo-EM Density Maps
Understanding a protein’s structure can lead to the discovery of therapeutic protein drugs. However, imaging proteins remains a challenge due to their small size. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is a leading imaging ... -
Democracy, Strategic Interests & U.S. Foreign Policy in the Arab World: A Multiple Case Study of Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan & Saudi Arabia
(2015)What determines U.S. foreign policy in the Arab world? In order to address this question, an inductive multiple case study of Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia was conducted. These four Arab countries were selected ... -
The Demographics of Mental Health at UW Bothell: Descriptive Analysis
(2018)A quantitative analysis of the percentage of students reporting mental health issues at the University of Washington Bothell found nearly one quarter of the study respondents reported that they are dissatisfied or very ... -
Design and Qualitative/Quantitative Analysis of Multi-Agent Spatial Simulation Library
(2013-02-25)Integrating sensor networks in cloud computing gives new opportunities of using as many cloud-computing nodes as necessary to analyze real-time sensor data on the fly. However, most cloud services for parallelization such ... -
Dieter
Dieter is a fictional account how the sins of the father can continue to reverberate for thousands of years. Told from the point of view of Snow, Hazard's (formally known as Dieter) mid-twenties estranged daughter, the ... -
Diplomatic Practices of the U.S. & China: A Comparative Analysis of Aid Projects in Angola & Nigeria (2001 – 2014)
(2020)Progressing into the 21st century, the U.S.-China relationship is under increasing tension. The resulting policies exhibited by the U.S. & China in Angola and Nigeria are reflective of how world powers approach statecraft ... -
Discrepancy between role expectations and job descriptions: the impact on stress and job satisfaction
(2011)This study’s purpose is to identify the difference between formal job descriptions and true job expectations (job discrepancy), assess its frequency, and identify its impact to the workplace. This study will explain the ... -
Discrete Gaussian Sampling for Low-Power Devices
Sampling from the discrete Gaussian probability distribution is used in lattice-based cryptosystems. A need for faster and memory-efficient samplers has become a necessity for improving the performance of such cryptosystems. ... -
Distributed agent management in a parallel simulation and analysis environment
This thesis presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of adding features of automatic distributed injection, diffusion, merger, and termination to reactive agents in a parallel simulation and analysis environment. ... -
Distributed Diverging Topic Models: A Novel Algorithm for Large Scale Topic Modeling in Spark
In their 2001 work Latent Dirichlet Allocation, Blei, Ng, and Jordan proposed the generative model of the same name that has since become the basis for most research in the field of topic modeling. The model overcame many ... -
Dynamic load balancing in MASS
(2013-11-14)<bold>Dynamic Load Balancing</bold> (DLB) in Multi-agent Spatial Simulation (MASS) library is a thread-based load-balancing algorithm that calculates the CPU load, per thread, based on the computational time spent by CPU, ... -
Eat This Book: User-centered research and software design using the information diet metaphor to examine media consumption and design an ambient technology display for stashes of to-be-read ebooks
(2013-07-25)There are widespread concerns about how changes in media and technologies are affecting people's media habits. Clay Johnson (2012) proposes using the metaphor of an "information diet" to consider this as a health issue, ... -
Effects of Peer Feedback on Password Strength
This thesis is a study on the effects of peer-feedback on a user’s password strength. Passwords are a common sight in everyday use of an average end user. Text-based passwords are heavily relied upon when it comes to user ...
