(2009-12-11)
Internet data acquisition from the Web is the process of extracting essential data from any web server. Semi-structured data present in the form of HTML web pages need to be extracted, converted into structured data before ...
Interpenetrating Polymer Networks with Polyurethane and Methacrylate-based Polymers
(2013-07-25)
Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were synthesized with polyurethane (PU) and methacrylate-based polymers in order to create a transparent device with high toughness for potential applications in high-impact scenarios. ...
The Interplay of Parental Marital Conflict and Divorce in Young Adult Children's Relationships with Parents and Romantic Partners
(2007-08-15)
A substantial body of literature has documented the effects of parental divorce and marital conflict on adult children’s interpersonal relationships with parents and romantic partners. However, few studies have tested the ...

(2009-07-28)
There is a well documented literature establishing the relationship of parenting behaviors with child positive (i.e. social skills) and negative (i.e. aggressive problems) adjustment outcomes. However, relatively fewer ...
Interpretable Deep Learning for Diagnosis of Human Brain Disorders using Neuroimaging
(2020-11-17)
Deep neural networks are increasingly being used in neuroimaging research for the diagnosis of brain disorders and understanding of human brain. They are complex data driven systems that work in a black-box fashion once ...
Interregional Aspects of Timber Inventory Projections
(2004-12-15)
The overall goal of this study is to explore interregional aspects of modeling timber supply. Three separate papers are presented in this dissertation.
The first paper (Chapter 3) presents an econometric analysis of ...
Interrogation of System State of Lead-Free Electronics Subjected to Mixed Sequential Steady-State and Cyclic Thermal Environments
(2010-11-04)
Electronic assemblies deployed in harsh field environments may be exposed to single and multiple thermal environments during their service life. In real world setting it is often required to know during the service life ...
Intersecting Social Justice and the Secondary Choral Classroom: A Phenomenological Study of Social Justice Teacher Perspectives
(2022-05-06)
The American public-school student population has changed, yet school music remains much as it was at the turn of the twentieth century. The reality of today’s profound absence of students of color, equity gaps, and lack ...
The Intersection Problem for Latin Squares with Holes of Size 2 and 3
(2009-04-28)
In this dissertation we give complete solutions for the intersection problem of latin
squares with holes of size 2 and 3. For a pair of 2n x 2n latin squares with holes of size 2
to have k entries in common outside of ...
The Intersection Problem for Maximum Packings of the Complete Graph with 4-Cycles
(2020-05-11)
A maximum packing of K_n with 4-cycles may leave some edges of the graph unpacked. The size of the leave is determined by the congruence class of n modulo 8. When n ≡ 1 (mod 8) the packing coincides with a 4-cycle system ...
The Intersection Problem for Steiner Triple Systems
(2011-11-16)
In this thesis we give a new solution to the intersection problem for Steiner triple systems, using results that were not available when the original solution was given. In particular we show for each pair (n,k), where n ...
The Intersection Problem for Steiner Triple Systems
(2016-04-22)
A Steiner triple system of order n is a pair (S,T) where T is an edge disjoint partition
of the edge set of K_n (the complete undirected graph on n vertices with vertex set S) into triangles (or triples). It is by now ...
Intersection problem for the class of Reed-Muller codes.
(2009-07-28)
The intersection problem for Coding Theory can be stated as follows: given a family or class of
families of codes, find the spectrum of intersection numbers. The general strategy to attack
this kind of problem begins ...
Intersection Structures on Secants of Grassmannians
(2023-08-02)
Restricted secant varieties of Grassmannians are constructed from sums of points corresponding to k-planes with the restriction that their intersection has a prescribed dimension. This thesis calculates dimensions of ...
Intersections of Graph Theory and Combinatorial Commutative Algebra
(2023-07-27)
In this dissertation, we explore three problems in the fields of graph theory and combinatorial commutative algebra, and their intersections. First, we prove a higher upper bound for the slow coloring number of a certain ...
