Any classification system should be evaluated with respect to a variety of philosophical and practical concerns. This paper explores several distinct issues: the nature of a work, the value of a statement, the contribution of information science to philosophy, the nature of hierarchy, ethical...

This study is about a series of operational acts of identification, such as interpretations, categorizations, representations, classifications, through which past materials have acquired their meaning and therefore identity. Furthermore, this meaning-making will be demonstrated always to be...

Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: Classifying, Assessing, and Monitoring using Surface Topography Asymmetry Analysis
DownloadFall 2014
The radiation dose and the associated lifetime risk of developing cancer is a problem justifying the use of surface topography (ST) as an alternative to radiographs for monitoring scoliosis. The current ST methods mainly rely on marker placement and fail to describe the 3D aspect of the scoliosis...

The simultaneous quantification of all biological molecules, from metabolites to proteins, holds the key to discovering molecular signatures that can diagnose diseases before irreversible damages have occurred in the body. Recent advances in the field of liquid chromatography coupled mass...

Algorithms for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Classification Based on Surface Topography Analysis
DownloadSpring 2018
While the common method for diagnosing and monitoring adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is X-ray radiographs from which a Cobb angle is measured, studies have shown that high radiation exposure is linked to high risk of cancer, particularly, for children and women. This thesis describes...

Each individual chromatogram is typically very sparse, especially when coupled with a technique such as mass spectrometry. Only a small portion of the recorded data actually contains potentially useful information. Since the inclusion of irrelevant information will have detrimental effects upon...

Analytical and Toxicological Characterization of Novel Nitrogen Containing Disinfection Byproducts
DownloadFall 2012
Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are an unwanted consequence of water disinfection. Consumption of chlorinated drinking water has been associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer; however, the DBP or DBPs responsible has not been identified. The N-nitrosamines are a class of DBPs that are...

Application of chemometric and experimental tools for monitoring processes of industrial importance
DownloadFall 2019
The common theme of this work was to investigate the relationships between multi-dimensional experimental data and the physical and chemical properties of certain reacting systems that have industrial relevance. Three particular systems of increasing complexity in terms of composition of the...

Interesting real-world samples are almost always present as mixtures containing the analyte(s) of interest and a matrix of components that are irrelevant to answering the analytical question at hand. Additionally, the compounds comprising the matrix are usually present in far greater...
