Development of AI-based ergonomics risk assessment tools for harmonization of industrial work systems
DownloadFall 2023
Manufacturing industry workers face significant ergonomic risks due to poorly designed work systems. Consequently, it is crucial to periodically assess work systems to identify areas for improvement. However, the assessment process is often disregarded due to the absence of userfriendly...

The problem of missing data is omnipresent in a wide range of real-world datasets. When learning and predicting on this data with neural networks, the typical strategy is to fill-in or complete these missing values in the dataset, called impute-then-regress. Much less common is to attempt to...

Efficacy of conventional and novel antimicrobial treatments on the inactivation of desiccated cells and biofilms of Salmonella
DownloadSpring 2024
Repeated isolation of Salmonella from the dry and wet environments of the food industry poses a significant concern to human health. It is crucial to understand the influence of the various environmental conditions on Salmonella’s survival. The overall objective of this research was to evaluate...

Enhancing the Architecture of Context-Aware Driver Assistance Systems by Incorporating Insights from Naturalistic Driving Data
DownloadSpring 2019
Driving assistance systems (DASs) have received a great deal of attention in the past decades as an active and effective collision countermeasure. DASs potential benefits will be attained by enhancing the systems’ awareness regarding the dynamic driving context including the change in the driver...

Estimating the Overlap of Top Instances in Lists Ranked by Correlation to Label
Spring 2012
Recent advances in high-throughput technologies, such as genome-wide SNP analysis and microar- ray gene expression profiling, have led to a multitude of ranked lists, where the features (SNPs, genes) are sorted based on their individual correlation with a phenotype. Multiple reviews have shown...

Exploring biomarkers to predict pig disease resilience traits under a natural disease challenge
DownloadSpring 2024
The intensification and consolidation of modern pig production is exposed to higher risks of endemic or pandemic infections. The complexity of the polymicrobial challenge and increasing concerns on antibiotics resistance make it pivotal to find an efficient way of controlling infections besides...
