The Bird's Ear View: Audification for the Spectral Analysis of Heliospheric Time Series Data.
(2015)
The sciences are inundated with a tremendous volume of data, and the analysis of rapidly expanding data archives presents a persistent challenge. Previous research in the field of data sonification suggests that auditory ...
Selected Problems for High-Dimensional Data - Quantile and Errors-in-Variables Regressions.
(2016)
This dissertation addresses two problems. First, we study joint quantile regression at multiple quantile levels with high dimensional covariates. Variable selection performed at individual quantile levels may lack stability ...
Generative Reciprocity: A Computational Approach for Performance-Based and Fabrication-Aware Design of Reciprocal Systems
(2020)
Using the capabilities of computation and digital fabrication this thesis provides a basis for a novel process of design to fabrication for reciprocal systems.
In the traditional sense, reciprocal structures combine the ...
Aural Architecture as Affect: Understanding the Impact of Acoustic Environments on Human Experience
(2021)
Architectural design plays a significant role in shaping human experience in buildings through the perception of space. However, architectural characteristics not only result in visual attributes that affect how the occupants ...
Influence of Uncertainty in User Behaviors on the Simulation-Based Building Energy Optimization Process and Robust Decision-Making
(2016)
Computer-based simulations have been widely used to predict building performances. Building energy simulation tools are generally used to perform parametric studies. However, the building is a complex system with a great ...
Terahertz Time-domain Reflectrometry of Multilayered Systems.
(2008)
Presented in this work are applications of terahertz pulse ranging, spectroscopy and imaging to the nondestructive evaluation of three disparate multilayer systems for the detection and measurement of hidden layers, as ...
