Data-driven interaction techniques for improving navigation of educational videos
(Association of Computing Machinery, 2014)With an unprecedented scale of learners watching educational videos on online platforms such as MOOCs and YouTube, there is an opportunity to incorporate data generated from their interactions into the design of novel video ... -
Data-driven Predictive Control Optimization for Natural Ventilation in Buildings
(2021-07-12)Natural ventilation reflects an emphasis on self-control in architecture: it is a crucial aim in the creation of healthy, comfortable indoor environments with low energy consumption. The design of naturally ventilated ... -
A Data-Driven Reflectance Model
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2003)We present a generative model for isotropic bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) based on acquired reflectance data. Instead of using analytical reflectance models, we represent each BRDF as a dense set ... -
A data-driven review of thermoelectric materials: Performance and resource considerations
(American Chemical Society, 2013)In this review, we describe the creation of a large database of thermoelectric materials prepared by abstracting information from over 100 publications. The database has over 18,000 data points from multiple classes of ... -
Dating the Demise: Neandertal Extinction and the Establishment of Modern Humans in the Southern Caucasus
(Elsevier, 2008)This paper considers the recent radiometric dating (14C-AMS, TL, ESR) of 76 late Middle and early Upper Paleolithic samples from Ortvale Klde Rockshelter, located in the Republic of Georgia. We present a critical evaluation ... -
The Daubert/Kumho Implications of Observer Effects in Forensic Science: Hidden Problems of Expectation and Suggestion
(California Law Review Inc., 2002)After the Supreme Court's decision in Kumho Tire v. Carmichael and the recent amendment of Federal Rule of Evidence 702, proffers of expert testimony will have to be found reliable for the particular application of the ... -

Days out of role due to mental and physical illness in the South African stress and health study
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2014)Background: Both mental and physical disorders can result in role limitation, such as ‘days out of role’, which have an important impact on national productivity losses. This paper analyses data from the South African ... -
A daytime measurement of the lunar contribution to the night sky brightness in LSST’s ugrizy bands–initial results
(Springer Nature, 2016)We report measurements from which we determine the spatial structure of the lunar contribution to night sky brightness, taken at the LSST site on Cerro Pachon in Chile. We use an array of six photodiodes with filters that ... -
DC resistivity at the onset of spin density wave order in two-dimensional metals
(American Physical Society (APS), 2014)The theory for the onset of spin density wave order in a metal in two dimensions flows to strong coupling, with strong interactions not only at the “hot spots,” but on the entire Fermi surface. We advocate the computation ... -
DCO+, DCN, and N2D+ Reveal Three Different Deuteration Regimes in the Disk Around the Herbig Ae Star HD 163296
(EDP Sciences, 2017-10-24)Context: Deuterium fractionation has been used to study the thermal history of pre-stellar environments. Their formation pathways trace different regions of the disk and may shed light into the disk’s physical structure, ... -
DDI2 inhibition promotes MHC class I antigen presentation and immune checkpoint blockade efficacy in cancers
(2023-06-01)The landscape of cancer treatments has changed dramatically over the last ten years with the use of novel checkpoint blockade immunotherapy. Even though immune checkpoint inhibitors have produced favorable objective response ... -
de Haas–van Alphen oscillations for nonrelativistic fermions coupled to an emergent U ( 1 ) gauge field
(American Physical Society, 2010)In this paper we investigate magneto-oscillations in the specific heat and the magnetization of nonrelativistic fermions coupled to a fluctuating U(1) gauge field. This model obtains as an effective model for the under-doped ... -
De novo lumen formation in intrahepatic biliary development and cancer
(2021-09-13)The mammalian liver performs many essential functions, including the secretion of bile into the gut to emulsify lipids. Bile is passed from hepatocytes to the intestine through a complex system of branching tubes: the ... -
A De Novo Protein Binding Pair By Computational Design and Directed Evolution
(Elsevier BV, 2011)The de novo design of protein-protein interfaces is a stringent test of our understanding of the principles underlying protein-protein interactions and would enable unique approaches to biological and medical challenges. ... -
(De)Constructing Dimensions
(American Physical Society (APS), 2001)We construct renormalizable, asymptotically free, four dimensional gauge theories that dynamically generate a fifth dimension. -
Deactivation of metastable single-crystal silicon hyperdoped with sulfur
(AIP Publishing, 2013)Silicon supersaturated with sulfur by ion implantation and pulsed laser melting exhibits broadband optical absorption of photons with energies less than silicon's band gap. However, this metastable, hyperdoped material ...
