Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Spring 2011
The minimum degree spanning tree problem is a widely studied NP-hard variation of the minimum spanning tree problem, and a generalization of the Hamiltonian path problem. Most of the work done on the minimum degree spanning tree problem has been on approximation algorithms, and very little work...

Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) allow developers to reuse existing functionality without knowing the implementation details. However, developers might make mistakes in using APIs, which are known as API misuses. One way to detect and prevent API misuses is to encode usage specifications...

Spring 2013
We propose a two-phase method, called Multivariate Association Discovery (MAD), to mine temporal associations in multiple event sequences. It is assumed that a set of event sequences has been collected from an application, where each event has an id and an occurrence time. The goal is to detect...

High-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping technologies conveniently produce large SNP genotype datasets for genome-wide linkage and association studies. Various factors, from array design and hybridization, can give rise to a certain percentage of missing calls, and the...

Mixed Low-bit Quantization for Model Compression with Layer Importance and Gradient Estimations
DownloadSpring 2022
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely used in the modern world in recent years. However, due to the substantial memory consumption and high computational power use of DNNs, deploying them on devices with limited resources is challenging. Model compression methods can provide us with a...
