Accurate, fast, and robust 3D city-scale reconstruction using wide area motion imagery
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Multi-view stereopsis (MVS) is a core problem in computer vision, which takes a set of scene views together with known camera poses, then produces a geometric representation of the underlying 3D model Using 3D reconstruction ... -
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
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Privacy and security of data have been a critical concern at the state, organization and individual levels since times immemorial. New and innovative methods for data storage, retrieval and analysis have given rise 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 ... -
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, ... -
Theoretical analysis and experimental investigation of a combined compact evaporative cooler
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Evaporative cooling utilizes the fact that water can absorb a relatively large amount of heat during the evaporation process. When this evaporation process takes place in ambient air, the ambient air temperature can be ... -
Structural modeling of the 3D genome using machine learning
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)This dissertation, submitted as a partial requirement for completion of the Doctorate of Philosophy, outlines the research performed by Max Highsmith in the BDM Lab. This work includes a functional expansion of a ... -
Computer vision for plant and animal inventory
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)The population, composition, and spatial distribution of the plants and animals in certain regions are always important data for natural resource management, conservation and farming. The traditional ways to acquire such ... -
Information fusion for robust detection of scarce features/objects in high resolution electro-optical satellite imagery
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)We conducted research to develop and test methods to improve the detection of scarce objects in high-resolution electro-optical satellite imagery. We demonstrated improvements through various forms of information and data ... -
Fatigue and static behaviour of post-tensioned steel-concrete composite beams
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Strengthening steel and concrete composite (SCC) bridge superstructures using post-tensioned steel tendons offers many advantages. Since bridge structures are usually exposed to fatigue cycles, understanding the fatigue ... -
Explainable artificial intelligence for patient stratification and drug repositioning
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Enabling precision medicine requires developing robust patient stratification methods as well as drugs tailored to homogeneous subgroups of patients from a heterogeneous population. Developing de novo drugs is expensive ... -
Efficient secure comparison in the dishonest majority model
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Secure comparison (SC) is an essential primitive in Secure Multiparty Computation (SMC) and a fundamental building block in Privacy-Preserving Data Analytics (PPDA). Although secure comparison has been studied since the ... -
Moving object localization using frequency measurements
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)This research investigates the ability of locating a moving object using the Doppler shifts of a carrier frequency signal sent or re ected by the object and observed by several fixed or moving sensors spatially distributed ... -
Effects of beta radiation on nanostructured semiconductor devices for low energy radiation sensing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Beta radiation detection currently relies primarily on scintillation detectors. However, the construction of these detectors tends to be large which significantly limits their applicability for field-use. A nanostructured ... -
Dashboard design and usability study for geospatially enabled information seeking to assist pandemic response and resilience
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Counties in Missouri are primarily rural. Rural communities often consist of individuals with poor health, lower economic status, and lack of public health infrastructure. During the COVID- 19 pandemic, most research was ... -
Location prediction and trajectory optimization in multi-UAV application missions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)Unmanned aerial vehicles (a.k.a. drones) have a wide range of applications in e.g., aerial surveillance, mapping, imaging, monitoring, maritime operations, parcel delivery, and disaster response management. Their operations ... -
