    Assessment of Self-Archiving in Institutional Repositories: Depositorship and Full-Text Availability

    No full text
    This research evaluates the success of open access self-archiving in several well-known institutional repositories. Two assessment factors have been applied to examine the current practice of self-archiving: depositorship and the availability of full text. This research discovers that the rate of author self-archiving is low and that the majority of documents have been deposited by a librarian or administrative staff. Similarly, the rate of full-text availability is relatively low, except for Australian repositories. By identifying different practices of self-archiving, repository managers can create new strategies for the operation of their repositories and the development of archiving policies

    Distributed Grid Analytics Platform (DGAP) for power grid monitoring at the distribution level

    Phasor measurement units (PMUs) which measure electrical waves with real-time synchronization at widely spread points across the power grid over great benefits. While the PMU device concept is well known in the power industry, the field of power system analysis stands to benefit greatly from using different methods of designing and implementing an inexpensive PMU that can be widely and densely distributed on the grid. Traditional PMUs are mainly installed at the transmission level, where they are hard to install and maintain, and can be expensive due to the rating requirements of the components. Given their benefits and increasingly widespread installation, easier-to-maintain and less costly PMUs are desired. In 2000, frequency disturbance recorders (FDRs), which are single-phase PMUs that monitor the power grid at the 120 V distribution level, were operated for the Frequency monitoring Network (FNET) project by Virginia Tech and the University of Tennessee. While installing FDRs at the low-voltage distribution level of the power grid was a great step toward reducing the cost and limitations of PMU use, there are still drawbacks and significant room for improvement: the sampling frequency is low at 1440 samples per second (SPS), there is no auxiliary power supply to support the device during an atypical power grid event, and the USD 2000 price can be driven lower. This thesis introduces the Distributed Grid Analytics Platform (DGAP) which has a higher sampling rate (20k SPS), a backup power supply, smaller size, and much lower cost (USD 200) while keeping the functionality of the FDRs including accurate data acquisition, GPS time synchronization, internet connectivity, and open source data upload. The improvements were realized by a more succinct approach for the system design and more updated component selection, which will be explained in this thesis. The designed DGAPs were built into prototypes and tested in household power outlets, experimentally validating their functionality.Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'.

    Information Literacy and Librarian-Faculty Collaboration: A Model for Success:

    No full text
    In the age of information explosion and technological advancement, issues of information storage, organization, access, and evaluation have become necessarily important in our societies. Addressing issues of information literacy and designing how they can be best integrated in students' learning process are of critical importance. Library professionals in the United States, particularly in the academia, have realized the importance of information literacy and have attempted in various ways to address these issues. The ultimate goal is to make information literacy an integral part of the academic curriculum, thus helping students to succeed not only during their years in college but also for their lifelong career choices. This article will look at ways of how information literacy can best be incorporated into students' academic experience, and how this process can make students' learning meaningful and successful. Specifically, the author will examine the model of librarian-faculty collaboration in integrating information literacy into the curriculum, as demonstrated in the Ohio Five Colleges' Information Literacy Program.Publisher version of this article is available at: http://www.white-clouds.com/iclc/cliej/cl24.ht

    The student, Yuqi Li, accepted the attached license on 2020-11-30 at 12:57.The student, Yuqi Li, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2020-11-30 at 13:00.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2020-12-02 at 16:09.Various applications would benefit from rapid inference on multispectral images at the point of sensing. However, the acquisition of a full-resolution multispectral image requires advanced spectrometers and prohibitive sensing time. Also, performing the high-level vision tasks such as classification and segmentation on the multispectral data consumes more computation power than on the common RGB images. Compressed sensing (CS) circumvents this sensing process usually using a random sensing matrix to acquire fewer measurements and reconstructs the multispectral image based on a sparsity assumption. The further high-level analysis of images is performed on the reconstructed high-dimensional images. And a random sensing matrix may not be physically realizable or the best fit for extracting information pertaining to a high-level vision task. A realizable low-cost data acquisition scheme and a fast processing system that makes inference based on the acquired signal are desired for multispectral images. In this thesis, we present a systematic way to jointly optimize the sensing scheme subject to optical realizability constraints, and make inference of the multispectral image in the compressed domain. In the first part of the thesis, we state some open questions in compressed inference. We review the theory on inference in the compressed domain. We formulate the problem for compressed inference and state metrics to evaluate the inference performance. We then review some existing realizable optical compressed sensing imaging systems designed for multispectral images and derive the forward model of data acquisition. The feasibility of performing detection, classification and segmentation in the compressed domain directly is then discussed for the multispectral images. Using tools from detection and estimation theory, we derive the optimal decision rule to perform compressed detection, classification and segmentation in a simple data setting. Also, the feasibility of adjusting the optical acquisition schemes jointly with the neural network is discussed. The architecture of neural networks that can achieve the performance of the optimal decision rule is proposed and the existence of optimal weights is discussed. Next, we use a synthetic dataset to compare the performance of the proposed neural network and the optimal decision rule. Several synthetic multispectral image datasets and a clinical tumor biopsy dataset are used to verify the improvement of the obtained sensing scheme and compare the performance of the neural network with that of a known optimal decision rule.Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'.
