Intelligent transportation systems use in-pavement inductive loop sensors to collect real time traffic data. This method is very expensive in terms of installation and maintenance. Our research is focused on developing advanced algorithms capable of generating high amounts of en…
This thesis discusses the preliminary development of a microfluidic system for low concentration vapour analysis incorporating a novel analyte preconcentration method to extend vapour detection limits. The topicality of this subject is evidenced by the urgent requirement to dete…
Salmonella associated with poultry meat is responsible for a significant number of foodborne illnesses in the United States, with both broilers and turkeys implicated as vehicles in outbreaks. Numerous studies have been carried out to understand the prevalence and characteristic…
Neutron detection is a technique essential to homeland security, nuclear reactor instrumentation, neutron diffraction science, oil-well logging, particle physics and radiation safety. The current shortage of helium-3, the neutron absorber used in most gas-filled proportional cou…
In this research, hyperspectral and terahertz (THz) imaging were used for segmentation and detection of desired objects. In the hyperspectral part of the research, the performance of hyperspectral image classifying algorithms were tested and enhanced by parameter modification an…
Background There is interest in the possibility of indicated prevention of psychosis. There is a strong case for using psychological approaches to prevent transition to psychosis in high-risk patients. Aims To identify individuals at high risk of transition to psychosis, and psy…
In the era of big data, large volumes of data are collected, communicated, processed, stored, and retrieved to enable a wealth of new applications in all facets of everyday life. The fine-grained collection of information and ever-increasing reliance on computing and networking …
Mental health can be conceptualized as a complex, emergent phenomenon resulting from the interaction between biological, psychological, social, environmental, and other contextual factors. Traditionally, care providers assess one's mental health when an individual consults a med…
Technological advancement and globalization have led to the spread of foods to countries where the food does not yet have a documented history of consumption, in other words, novel foods. Novel foods also encompass truly novel foods, foods that have been processed in a novel man…
