    • Uses and Gratifications of Amputees' Online Social Networks 

      Frohlich, Dennis Owen (2011)
      The following thesis examined amputee support groups on Facebook. Having an 111 amputation can be a life-changing experience. and social support may be necessary to understand one's amputation. Hundreds of amputee groups ...
    • Genetic Search for Multi School Routing 

      Ganesan, Arjun Sivaram Kumar (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      In genetic search for multi school routing, a set of commonly shared school buses and vans with capacity, travel speed and travel time limitations are used to service students from their pick up locations to their ...
    • Automated Tool for Software Requirements Inspection 

      Amaran, Pradeep (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      The software inspection process is a very cost effective method of identifying defects in documents produced during the software life cycle, leading to higher quality software with lower field failures. Manual inspections ...
    • Bayesian Approach for Detection Classification 

      Annapureddy, Anupama Reddy (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      The objective of this paper is to develop and test a software system that uses incomplete information from a collection of sensors to classify different objects present in a particular area with a pre-specified probability. ...
    • Frequent Substring-Based Sequence Classification Using Reduced Alphabets 

      Chitraranjan, Charith Devinda (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      In recent years, various disciplines have generated large quantities of sequence data which has necessitated automated techniques for classifying these sequences into different categories of interest. Especially with the ...
