Design of learning objects to support constructivist learning environments
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Using Constructivism to guide the design of learning objects, we develop a generic structure that classifies knowledge into different types on different levels. With a simple generic structure of learning object, learners ...
Bioinformatics methods for protein identification using peptide mass fingerprinting data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
development: we implemented our computational methods in an open source package "ProteinDecision" which is freely available upon request. ....
Genome scale meta analysis of microarrays for biological inferences
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
In this present era of high-throughput technologies, meta-analysis is being widely used to integrate multiple similar high throughput studies. Here we propose a novel framework for applying meta-analysis techniques on ...
PRIMEGENSv2 : a service based platform using object oriented model view controller design pattern
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
There are a number of tools and software packages dealing with the problem of efficient primer and probe design. In an era of fast paced research it is rather difficult for any researcher to change their favorite tool. So ...
Architecting the spatial enablement of a film location database for enhanced geographic analysis and query
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
to process data from different sources. The system must allow the inclusion of data as it is added to the database by end-users and maintain a structure that is still optimized for querying yet not limiting the availability of the data....
Design and implementation of a portable prTorrent simulator system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The absence of a system that could perform as both a P2P simulator and a P2P emulator poses a barrier to researchers and developers. The objective of ...
Real-time speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recoginition
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
In this dissertation, a real-time decoding engine for speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) is presented. Three indispensable and correlated performance measurements -- accuracy, speed, and memory cost...
Building hybrid multicast by combining IP and application layers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
This work presents new multicasting algorithm called Hybrid Multicast (HM). HM is a software solution that implements the integration between ALM and IP Multicast. The proposed solution always tries to use IP Multicast capability wherever available...
Fine-grained authorization in the Great Plains network virtual organization
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The last few years have experienced a steady growth in research institutions showing interest in developing research projects that involve more than one institution's computing resources forming so called virtual organizations. ...
Feasibility of the nintendo Ds for teaching problem-based learning in kindergarten through twelfth grade students
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Problem-based learning (PBL) is an instructional approach that has been employed successfully since the 1960s and continues to gain mainstream acceptance in many areas of study. PBL is an instructional, and curricular, ...
A compact representation for 3D animation using octrees and affine transformation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] We present a new and compact 3D representation for non-rigid objects using motion vectors between two consecutive frames. Our method relies on an ...
Domain-concept mining : an efficient on-demand data mining approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Traditional brute-force association mining approaches, when applied to large datasets, are thorough but inefficient due to computational complexity. A low global minimum probability threshold can worsen this complexity by ...
Revealing the conformation and properties of human genome, protein molecules and protein domain co-occurrence network
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, encodes genetic instructions for the functionalities of organisms. For human beings, 23 pairs of chromosomes, containing DNA strands, form a globule structure in the nucleus. This chromosomal ...
