Local and deep texture features for classification of natural and biomedical images
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Developing efficient feature descriptors is very important in many computer vision applications including biomedical image analysis. In the past two decades and before the popularity of deep learning approaches in image ...
Distribution and abundance of anurans in southeast Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Studies were conducted on 15 1034 ha landscape blocks to investigate the effects of forest fragmentation and habitat availability on anuran populations. Detections of anurans did not indicate a correlation between the ...
Development of translational models for intervertebral disc degeneration using a comparative approach for canine and human patients
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Intervertebral discs (IVDs) are unique musculoskeletal tissues within functional spinal unit organs comprising the spinal column that distribute loads and allow complex movements for vertebrates. IVD degeneration has been ...
Investigation of CO2 capture systems, Lewis acid-base pairs, and oscillating reactions with electronic structure theory and kinetics-based approaches
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Equilibrium is a key theme in chemistry education. Starting in high school and continuing in freshman general chemistry courses, STEM students have to learn the foundations of equilibria. What is the key concept of an ...
