S4h : A peer-to-peer search engine with explicit trust
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2019-05)S4h is a peer-to-peer search engine with explicit trust. By using a complaint-based reputation system in conjunction with the established peer-to-peer building block of a Kademlia-based distributed hash table, the search ... -
Safety factors and leading indicators in shipping organizations: tanker and container operations
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2008-05) -
Scan pattern adaptation during repeated visual search
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2007-12) -
Searching for the QCD sigma resonance on GPU architecture
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2016-05)In chapters 2, 3, and 4, the salient properties of continuum QCD will be outlined, as will those of path integral formalism and lattice gauge theory. In chapter 5, the numerical algorithms necessary to perform lattice ... -
Self-selecting reliable path routing for all environments using SENSE with visualization

Semantic driven data migration for predictive treatment of major depressive disorder
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2014-12)SEMMDD is a collection of researchers working to improve treatment for Major Depressive Disorder. Specifically, focus is put on accurately modeling patient response to various depression therapies. This paper contributes ... -
Semantic modeling of cohort descriptions
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2019-05)To address this challenge of supporting study applicability assessment, in this thesis, we make three contributions and we detail them in this paragraph. We build a Study Cohort Ontology (SCO) to encode the vocabulary of ... -
Semantically enabled medical image understanding
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2022-08)Medical imaging examination is the most common form of routine medical analysis, which involves several stages of reasoning and careful analysis to reach a final decision by the radiologist. Most deep learning frameworks ... -
Semantically enabled neural network modeling of major depressive disorder
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2012-08)We then describe our user case: we combine this portal with our second order differential equation and neural network model for depressive data analysis. Both the design methods and learning algorithm are discussed in this ... -
Semantically enabling next generation environmental informatics portals
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2012-05) -
Semantically matching tools and data collections: a ToolMatch use case extension
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2014-12)The focus of this thesis will be on the implementation of these two use cases, as well as an extension of the first use case, where a data user with certain semantics for a given data collection (such as a domain model) ... -
Sensorcaching : an open-source platform for citizen science and environmental monitoring
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2014-05)Sensorcaching is an Open-Source hardware and software project designed with several goals in mind. It allows for long-term environmental monitoring with low cost and low power-usage hardware. It encourages citizens to take ... -
Sequence-based separation of single-stranded DNA in capillary zone electrophoresis
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2018-08)This thesis explores further the mechanism for the sequence-based separation. First, the fluorescence tag attached to DNA was investigated as the cause of the sequenced-based separation. The same migration order was observed ... -
Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 as an avenue for green nanoparticle biosynthesis and next-generation biosensing
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2019-05)As global resource consumption grows and the pressures of industrialization and climate change place stress on Earth’s natural sources of freshwater, the preservation of these water systems has become a matter of increasing ... -
Shock tube measurements of ignition delay times for n-decane and decenes: the influence of the double bond
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2016-05)In order to understand the influence of double bond and its position on decene isomer oxidation, shock tube measurements has been performed to investigate the autoignition of n-decane, 1-decene, and 5-decene within a ... -
