Advances in Multiuser Detection

Advances in DNA Detection

DNA detection technologies have an increasing importance in our everyday lives, with applications ranging from microbial diagnostics to forensic analysis, food safety evaluation, and environmental monitoring. Currently, as the associated costs decrease, DNA diagnostic techniques are routinely used in research laboratories, in clinical and forensic practice. The first aim of this thesis is to un...

Recent Advances in Lie Detection

Lie detection techniques are utilized by investigating agencies in a wide variety of fields, such as Defence, Secret Services, Terrorism, as the veracity of statements cannot be taken at face value.

Advances in SAR Change Detection

SAR change detection performance using coherent change detection (CCD) and non-coherent change detection (NCCD) algorithms is demonstrated using high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery gathered by the General Dynamics Data Collection System. CCD performance comparisons using phaseonly imagery versus complex (amplitude and phase) imagery are also presented. A new image quality met...

Microarray method for the rapid detection of glycosaminoglycan-protein interactions.

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) perform numerous vital functions within the body. As major components of the extracellular matrix, these polysaccharides participate in a diverse array of cell-signaling events. We have developed a simple microarray assay for the evaluation of protein binding to various GAG subclasses. In a single experiment, the binding to all members of the GAG family can be rapidly ...
