Felix convivum : platters and transformations of dining behavior in the Roman world
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Most people in the Roman world used ceramic tableware, despite its absence in iconographical and in literary sources. This observation leads to many questions about how...
Horseman in Bronze : A Belt from Urartu
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Museum of Art and Archaeology, 2005)
Modulation of HBV infection and replication by cell-derived factors
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is one of the most serious health problems. HBV infection leads to serious morbidity and mortality due to the complications of chronic HBV...
Beyond the standard IAU framework
(Cambridge university Press, 2010)
We discuss three conceivable scenarios of extension and/or modification of the IAU relativistic resolutions on time scales and spatial coordinates beyond the Standard IAU Framework. These scenarios include: (1) the formalism of the monopole...
Machine learning methods for 3D object classification and segmentation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Object understanding is a fundamental problem in computer vision and it has been extensively researched in recent years thanks to the availability of powerful GPUs and labelled data, especially in the context of images. However, 3D object...
The early imperial ceramics as evidence for life at Roman Sardis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Historical testimonia tell us that in the year 17 CE, an earthquake struck in Western Asia Minor and destroyed the city of Sardis. Recent excavations in the Field 49, Field 55...
Establishing a foundation for large DNA transfer to artificial minichromosomes and B insert platforms in maize
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
In plants, conventional genetic engineering methods limit the number of available traits that could potentially improve the quality of agriculture. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and biolistic bombardment are tools ...
Publications, University of Missouri Extension, 2017-05
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2017)
Catalog of CDs, software, videos and hardcopy publications of the University of Missouri Extension Office....
The Hypothesis of Locality and its Limitations
(arXiv, 2003)
The hypothesis of locality, its origin and consequences are discussed. This supposition is necessary for establishing the local spacetime frame of accelerated observers; in this connection, the measurement of length in a ...
Effect of chip thickness, sub-critical bifurcations and process parameters in high-speed milling
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The main focus of the current research is to experimentally and numerically investigate of subcritical bifurcations in milling accounting for actual motion of the tool...
Publications, University of Missouri Extension, 2006-11
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2006)
Insights into atomic orbital polarization in polyatomic dissociation from DC slide velocity map imaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] "The field of chemical reaction dynamics is based upon understanding the details of elementary chemical reactions. It seeks to answer fundamental questions such as, what...
Quantum Theory in Accelerated Frames of Reference
(arXiv, 2005)
The observational basis of quantum theory in accelerated systems is studied. The extension of Lorentz invariance to accelerated systems via the hypothesis of locality is discussed and the limitations of this hypothesis are pointed out. The nonlocal...
Behavioral choice and demographic consequences of wood frog habitat selection in response to land use
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
, Missouri, and South Carolina are determining the effects of timber harvest on the persistence of amphibian populations. The purpose of my dissertation research was to define adult wood frog nonbreeding habitat in continuous oak-hickory forest...
Extension theorems in vector spaces over finite fields
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
We study the L[superscript p] - L[superscript r] boundedness of the extension operator associated with algebraic varieties such as nondegenerate quadratic surfaces, paraboloids, and cones in vector spaces over finite fields. We obtain the best...
Soil surface-seal measurement using high-resolution x-ray computed tomography (HRCT)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Rainfall on bare soil breaks soil aggregates, detaching particles, plugging pores and decreasing porosity in the top few mm of soil. This reduces hydraulic conductivity and increases runoff through a process known as surface ...
Application of deep convolutional neural networks to automatic feature/object detection in high resolution remote sensing imagery
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This thesis investigates how deep learning can be used to automatically detect features and/or objects of interest in high resolution satellite imagery. First an introduction...
Vehicle license plate detection and recognition
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
In this work, we develop a license plate detection and recognition method using a SVM (Support Vector Machine) classifier with HOG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients) features. The system performs window searching at different ...
State space formulation of TFEA & uncharted islands of instability in milling
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
A new approach is developed to examine the stability of delay differential equations that builds upon the previous work in temporal finite element analysis. In contrast to the results of previous work, which could only be ...
