1 Respiratory Motion Tracking in Magnetic Resonance Imaging With Respiratory Motion Tracking in Magnetic Resonance Imaging with Pilot Tone Technology Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Mary Lenk Graduate Program in Electrical and Computer Engineering The Ohio State University 2018 Thesis Committee Dr. Lee Potter, Advisor Dr. Rizwan Ahmad 1 Copyrighted by Mary Lenk 2018 2 Abstract This thesis explores the hypothesis that Pilot Tone (PT) technology can encode respiratory induced motion of the heart to improve cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Pilot tone technology is advantageous due to its high sampling rate to provide high temporal resolution in tracking and predicting respiration. Also, the PT signal has the potential to provide motion information without interrupting the pulse sequence to perform motion compensated scans. A prediction model is hypothesized to account for in-plane and through-plane motions due to respiration. A proof-of-concept experiment was designed to explore the ability of the PT signal to encode respiratory-induced motion. The PT signal was processed retrospectively offline and compared to a reference for respiratory motion. The two signals had a high correlation and show preliminary success for the PT to detect respiration. A linear filter was then designed to predict motion from a training phase using the same reference signal. The linear filter was successful with peak/trough locations between the prediction and the reference signal having a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 for end-expiration and end-inspiration prediction. Furthermore, a PT transmitter was designed and constructed for implementation of additional experiments. The transmitter was designed to be programmable, battery- ii powered, MR-safe, and portable for placement at various locations in the bore during scans. iii Dedication To my family and friends for their love and support. iv Acknowledgments In working on this thesis I have had the pleasure of working with many brilliant individuals. I would first like to thank my advisor Dr. Lee Potter for encouraging me to pursue this research and sharing his knowledge of signal processing throughout my undergraduate and graduate studies. This thesis came about as an extension to the work done by Michael Bush, and I’d like to thank him for providing me with the appropriate background knowledge and goals to drive the project. I would also like to thank Dr. Rizwan Ahmad and the CMR research group at The Ohio State University (OSU) for providing their expertise in cardiac MR and guidance on the project. Also, Yingmin Liu was very helpful in conducting scans for the experiments. In designing the transmitter, the antenna design was created by Xiozhen Yang and Dr. Villoroel in the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at OSU. The transmitter was developed with the help of Siddarth Baskar who further designed the electronics layout for the printed circuit board. Finally, I’d like to thank my family and friends for their unconditional support. This work was supported by the National Science Foundation under grant IIP-1539961. v Vita 2016 ............................................................. B.S.

    ‘AINA PONO – HAWAII’S FARM TO SCHOOL PROGRAM JUNE 2018 Prepared for: The Office of the Lieutenant Governor of the State of Hawaii, through The Kohala Center BACKGROUND & METHODOLOGY The Office of the Lieutenant Governor of the State of Hawaii, through The Kohala Center, contracted Anthology Marketing Group’s research team to conduct research to better understand the agricultural landscape in Hawaii, as part of a broader effort to find opportunities to help the State of Hawaii’s Farm to School program, ‘Aina Pono, be successful. ‘Aina Pono is HIDOE’s pioneering farm to school pilot initiative that aims to bring more healthy, nutritious, fresh, and local food to school cafeterias throughout Hawaii. One of its key goals is to systematically increase HIDOE’s purchasing of local food for school breakfast, lunch, and snack programs, thereby increasing the penetration of local food (i.e., grown and/or raised within the State of Hawaii) to 40% from the current level of 23%. Research Objectives Better understand existing barriers for food distributors and farmers to respond to HIDOE solicitations for locally-grown produce, meat and other food. Solicit feedback on HIDOE solicitation document language, terms and solicitation process. Identify products currently available to distributors (or produced by local farmers) that could be incorporated into the DOE lunch program, and better understand production calendars of crops. Better understand barriers and incentives for farmers to work with distributors, HIDOE. To achieve the aforementioned objectives, Anthology Research conducted 22 in-depth interviews with various stakeholders in Hawaii agriculture. The interviews were conducted either in-person or over the phone between April 10 and June 22, 2018.

  • Inference of Population History Using Coalescent Hmms: Review and Outlook
    Inference of Population History using Coalescent HMMs: Review and Outlook Jeffrey P. Spencea, Matthias Steinr¨uckenb, Jonathan Terhorstc, and Yun S. Songd,e,* aComputational Biology Graduate Group, University of California, Berkeley bDepartment of Ecology and Evolution, University of Chicago cDepartment of Statistics, University of Michigan dComputer Science Division and Department of Statistics, University of California, Berkeley eChan Zuckerberg Biohub, San Francisco *To whom correspondence should be addressed: [email protected] Abstract Studying how diverse human populations are related is of historical and anthropological interest, in addition to providing a realistic null model for testing for signatures of natural selection or disease associ- ations. Furthermore, understanding the demographic histories of other species is playing an increasingly important role in conservation genetics. A number of statistical methods have been developed to infer population demographic histories using whole-genome sequence data, with recent advances focusing on allowing for more flexible modeling choices, scaling to larger data sets, and increasing statistical power. Here we review coalescent hidden Markov models, a powerful class of population genetic inference meth- ods that can effectively utilize linkage disequilibrium information. We highlight recent advances, give advice for practitioners, point out potential pitfalls, and present possible future research directions. 1 Introduction Using genetic data to understand the history of a population has been a long-standing goal of population genetics [1], and the emergence of massive data sets with individuals from many populations (e.g., [2{ 4]), often including ancient samples [5], have enabled the inference of increasingly realistic models of the genetic history of human populations, e.g., [6{8].

  • A Bayesian Implementation of the Multispecies Coalescent Model with Introgression for Comparative Genomic Analysis

A Bayesian implementation of the multispecies coalescent model with introgression for comparative genomic analysis Thomas Flouris,1 Xiyun Jiao,1 Bruce Rannala2, and Ziheng Yang1,∗ 1Department of Genetics, Evolution and Environment, University College London, London, WC1E 6BT, UK 2Department of Evolution and Ecology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, USA ∗Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected]. Associate Editor: xxx xxx Abstract Recent analyses suggest that cross-species gene flow or introgression is common in nature, especially during species divergences. Genomic sequence data can be used to infer introgression events and to estimate the timing and intensity of introgression, providing an important means to advance our understanding of the role of gene flow in speciation. Here we implement the multispecies-coalescent-with-introgression (MSci) model, an extension of the multispecies- coalescent (MSC) model to incorporate introgression, in our Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) program BPP. The MSci model accommodates deep coalescence (or incomplete lineage sorting) and introgression and provides a natural framework for inference using genomic sequence data. Computer simulation confirms the good statistical properties of the method, although hundreds or thousands of loci are typically needed to estimate introgression probabilities reliably. Re-analysis of datasets from the purple cone spruce confirms the hypothesis of homoploid hybrid speciation. We estimated the introgression probability using the genomic sequence data from six mosquito species in the Anopheles gambiae species complex, which varies considerably across the genome, likely driven by differential selection against introgressed alleles.

  • Reciprocal Haunting: Pat Barker's Regeneration Trilogy
    Karen Patrick Knutsen Karen Patrick Reciprocal Haunting Faculty of Arts and Education English Reciprocal Haunting: Pat Barker's Reciprocal Pat Barker’s fictional account of the Great War, The Regeneration Trilogy, completed in 1995, won wide popular and critical acclaim and established her as a major contemporary British writer. Although the trilogy appears to be written in the realistic style of the traditional historical novel, Barker approaches the past with certain preoccupations from 1990s Britain and rewrites the past as seen through these contemporary lenses. Consequently, the trilogy conveys a sense of reciprocal haunting; the past Karen Patrick Knutsen returns to haunt the present, but the present also haunts Barker’s vision of the past. This haunting quality is developed through an extensive, intricate pattern of intertextuality. This study offers a reading of trauma, class, gender and psychology as thematic areas where intertexts Regeneration are activated, allowing Barker to revise and re-accentuate stories of the past. Drawing on Michel Foucault’s concept of discourse and Mikhail Bakhtin’s notion of dialogue, it focuses on the trilogy as an interactive link in an intertextual chain of communication about the Great War. My reading shows that the trilogy presents social structures from different historical epochs through dialogism and Trilogy Reciprocal Haunting diachronicity, making the present-day matrices of power and knowledge that continue to determine people’s lives highly visible. The Regeneration Trilogy regenerates the past, simultaneously confirming Barker’s claim that the historical novel can also be “a backdoor into the present”.

  • Fantasyland/Aggieland
    FANTASYLAND/AGGIELAND: A Bibliographic History of Science Fiction and Fantasy at Texas A&M University and in Brazos County, Texas, 1913-1985. compiled by Bill Page College Station, TX 2007 Page 1 of 134 INTRODUCTION Bill Page None of the local activites before 1967 were part of any fannish organizations -- at least not as far as I can determine. There's really no way to pick an exact beginning date for the history of science fiction and fantasy in Brazos County. For example, Bryan had a book store by 1870. It probably sold an occasional fantasy or science fiction novel, such as The Tempest or Frankenstein. After the end of the Civil War, newspapers, including the Galveston News, could be purchased in the county, as were magazines such as Godey's Ladies Book and Leslies Illustrated Weekly. These carried an occasional sf/f story. Persons wanting to know more about the early history of newspapers, magazines, libraries, and literary societies in Brazos County should read the chapters "Libraries," "Lodges and Civic Organizations," and "Cultural History: The Arts and Recreation in the Nineteenth Century" in Brazos County History: Rich Past -- Bright Future. I'm not sure when the first fantasy or science fiction film was shown in the county. Movies came to Bryan at least as early as January 1897, when "the magniscope, Edison's latest and greatest invention in the way of vitascopes" appeared in the Grand Opera House. (See the Bryan Daily Eagle, January 28, 1897, p. 4, cols. 2, 6). Page 2 of 134 Additional Sources: Additional material on the fantastic at Texas A&M University after 1985 can be found in several sources.
