(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
This thesis aims to engineer novel nanomaterial to target receptors on the surface of cancer to diagnose and deliver cytotoxic drugs or siRNA selectively. Receptor-targeting peptides have been relatively unexplored to ...
A Python-based GIS simulation of a water balance for wetland decision-making
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Many efforts have been undertaken to restore, maintain, and remediate impacted and lost wetlands. Wetlands provide natural habitat for amphibians and significantly support the ecosystem. Researchers have dedicated their ...
A class of weakly informative prior on multinomial logistic regression with separated data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Complete separation in logistic regression, sometimes referred to as perfect prediction, occurs when the outcome variable completely separates predictor variables. The likelihood function is monotonically increasing on the ...
Deep learning with very few and no labels
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Deep neural networks have achieved remarkable performance in many computer vision applications such as image classification, object detection, instance segmentation, image retrieval, and person re-identification. However, ...
An evaluation of an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) based system to characterize and correlate physician burnout and EMR use
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Burnout disproportionately affects healthcare workers and continues to rise, contributing to cost, quality, and patient safety risk in an already overburdened United States healthcare system. While the causes of burnout ...
Privacy-preserving collaboration in an integrated social environment
