The Effects of Genetic-based and Swarm Intelligence-based Feature Selection on Adversarial Author Identification

Halladay, Steve (2022-04-25)

Within the realm of author identification, where researchers work to classify writing samples by author, researchers are using more and diverse feature sets to try to improve classification accuracy. From a computational ...

Effects of Geometric Design Features and Traditional Traffic Control Devices on Wrong-Way Driving Incident at Partial Cloverleaf Interchange Terminal: A Machine-Learning Approach

Chang, Qing (2022-08-03)

The partial cloverleaf (parclo) interchange is the second most popular interchange in the United States. Past studies revealed that the parclo interchange terminal is one of the most common entry points for wrong-way driving ...

Effects of Grain Size and Orientation on Mechanical Response of Lead Free Solders

Zou, Jing (2013-11-25)

In this study, the effects of grain size and orientation on mechanical behaviors of lead free solders were evaluated by measuring the sub-grain size and determining the plane orientation of the grains. Sn-Ag-Cu (SAC) solder ...

Effects of Growing Season, Application Timing, and Substrate Drench Applications of Paclobutrazol as Compared to Daminozide Standards on Growth and Flowering of Gerbera Daisy ‘Bright Red with Light Eye’

Chen, Yanyu (2017-07-22)

Gerbera daisy (Gerbera jamesonii Hook. f.) is a popular pot plant with showy flowers, commonly marketing in spring. However, plants grown under greenhouse conditions can stretch or grow too large for containers. Plant ...

Effects of growth-promoting bacteria in suspended green algae cultures for bioenergy and bioproduct development

Peng, Haixin (2020-07-14)

With the exhaustion of fossil-based fuels, microalgae have attracted great interest as a renewable energy feedstock. Microalgae are photosynthetic microorganisms with rapid growth and the potential for production of lipids, ...

Effects of habitat variation on life history traits and genetic structure of Bartholomea annulata on Caribbean coral reefs

Titus, Benjamin (2011-07-08)

Phenotypically plastic life history strategies have important implications for how species colonize local habitats and disperse to distant environments, yet few data exist for tropical sea anemones. Here, I use field and ...

The effects of herbivory on plant mating systems

Tindle, Joel (2005-12-15)

Inbreeding is common in many plant species. Inbreeding reduces heterozygosity and increases the expression of recessive deleterious alleles that cause inbreeding depression. The level or intensity of inbreeding depression ...

Effects of high dietary copper concentration on growth performance, processing characteristics, amino acid digestibility, and ileal microflora composition of broilers

Philpot, Stephanie (2019-07-09)

Subtherapeutic antibiotics have been added to diets to improve growth performance of broilers. Pressure from the food service industry is reducing the use of this practice, so the broiler industry is evaluating alternatives ...

Effects of high-volume and high-intensity resistance training on skeletal muscle ultrastructure

Vann, Christopher (2020-06-19)

Background: Recently there has been enthusiasm surrounding the differential training adaptations that result from higher-load (HL) versus higher-volume (HV) resistance training. The purpose of this study was to evaluate ...

Effects of hunting frequency on wintering waterfowl abundance using UAVs

Hansey, Brittany (2023-01-10)

Waterfowl managers must navigate trade-offs between providing sustainable waterfowl populations and hunting opportunities to establish effective waterfowl hunting regulations. Assessing these trade-offs requires information ...

Effects of Hydraulic Retention Time on Nutrient Film Technique Lettuce Production in a Decoupled Aquaponics System

Wallace-Springer, Nathan (2020-07-30)

A series of 28-d hydroponic and aquaponic experiments were conducted at Auburn University from April 2019-March 2020 to determine the effects of limited nitrogen (N) and hydraulic retention time (HRT) on ‘Rex’ butterhead ...

Effects of Hydrologic Change on Stream Fish Assemblages in Alabama

Stiles, Warren (2016-04-26)

Alabama is home to the most diverse aquatic fauna in the United States. A major threat to this fauna is habitat degradation mediated by hydrologic alteration. Land cover changes contribute to disrupted flow patterns and ...

Effects of hydrologic variation and water temperatures on early growth and survival of selected age-0 fishes in the Tallapoosa River, Alabama.

Goar, Taconya (2013-04-23)

Altered flow regimes resulting from the construction of hydropower dams can negatively affect aquatic organisms in a variety of ways. The effects of flow and temperature variation on early growth, survival, and hatching ...

Effects of hydrologic variation on dynamics of channel catfish and flathead catfish populations in regulated and unregulated rivers in the southeast USA

Sakaris, Peter (2006-12-15)

Altered flow regimes resulting from dam construction can have negative impacts on growth and recruitment of fishes in regulated river systems. The effects of hydrologic variation on channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus and ...

Effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on inflammatory factors and antioxidant status in dogs after ovariohysterectomy – a pilot study

Gautier, Anais (2019-07-02)

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) is proven to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and healing properties in humans and laboratory animals. However, there are relatively few studies about the effects of HBO in companion ...
