• Efficient protein tertiary structure retrievals and classifications using content based comparison algorithms 

    Chi, Pin-Hao, 1976- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
    Functionally important sites of proteins are potentially conserved to specific three-dimensional structural folds. To understand the structure-to-function relationship, life sciences researchers and biologists have a great ...
  • Enhancement of adaptive de-correlation filtering separation model for robust speech recognition 

    Hu, Rong, 1972- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
    The development of automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology has enabled an increasing number of applications. However, the robustness of ASR under real acoustic environments still remains to be a challenge for practical ...
  • Heuristics for searching chemical structures 

    Basu, Nandini, 1971- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
    Chemical and biochemical structure databases are useful for retrieving information to a wide range of users, ranging from a high school student to a medical research scientist. These databases provide the user with various ...
  • A novel framework for protein structure prediction 

    Bondugula, Rajkumar, 1980- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
    Proteins are one of the most important molecules in the life processes. The structure of a protein is essential in understanding the function of a protein at the molecular level. Due to rapid progress in sequencing ...
  • Sketch-based navigation for mobile robots using qualitative landmark states 

    Chronis, George (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
    In this work, a system for navigating a mobile robot along a sketched route is proposed. The sketch is drawn on a PDA screen by a human operator and contains approximate landmarks and a path, similar to a sketch provided ...
