Spring 2016
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short (~21 nucleotides) endogenous noncoding RNAs. They are widespread post-transcriptional regulators in eukaryotes that bind target messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and regulate the protein expression levels. MiRNAs have attracted substantial amount of research attention and...

Fall 2021
The inception of Semantic Web including the Resource Description Framework (RDF) data model that provides a standard framework for publishing and sharing machine-under\-stand\-able data on the Web enables the development of intelligent, semantically-oriented systems. Up to date, thousands of...

Knowledge-based Recommendation Systems with Lexicographical Approach to Multi-criteria Decision Making
DownloadFall 2010
Users find information on the web via evaluating alternatives based on a set of preferences, and selecting the most suitable ones. However, not all of these preferences are equally important; some of them are more significant than the others. If a given alternative does not satisfy high priority...

Spring 2021
Recent years have witnessed a growth in the deployment of IoT devices in homes and workplaces. The number of IoT devices is projected to surpass tens of billions in the near future. This rapid growth can be credited to useful insights and convenience offered by IoT services and applications. A...

Fall 2015
The concept of Semantic Web, introduced by Berners-Lee in 2001, emphasizes importance of expressing semantics of data stored on the web. The introduced data format called Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a meaningful way of expressing and exploring data relations. It provides basics for...

In this thesis, we propose a design process to construct granular neural networks with granular inputs and numeric network parameters. The proposed granular network is formed on the basis of a numeric neural network whose inputs are augmented using probabilistic information granules. The design...

Spring 2022
During the past 10 years, we have witnessed the proliferation of cloud computing services and their adoption in the industry. This rapid growth has been mainly due to economies of scale, improving resource utilization, infinite computing resources on demand, and pay per use cost model. However,...

Fall 2021
Microservices have gained substantial importance over the past decades and matured into one of the fundamental techniques to build performant, cloud-native, and cost-efficient distributed systems that are scalable and highly available. However, like any other type of distributed system, there are...

Prediction and Characterization of DNA and RNA Binding Residues from Protein Sequence: state-of-the-art, novel predictors and proteome-scale analysis
DownloadFall 2016
Interactions between proteins and DNA/RNA play vital roles in many cellular processes and yet many of them remain to be found and characterized. Many computational methods have been developed to predict from protein sequences which parts of the proteins (so called interacting residues) are...
