Mestrado em Engenharia de Computadores e Telemática<br>O propósito desta dissertação é a melhoria da aplicação CraMs e a análise craniométrica de modelos 3D através da quantificação e classificação de estruturas e características morfológicas. Uma oportunidade para o desenvolvimento deste projeto apresentou-se no ano de 2012 numa tentativa de colaboração com antropólogos, para criar uma aplicação que os ajudasse e facilitasse a realização de medições craniométricas e no processo de marcação de pontos. A aplicação permite ultrapassar alguns dos problemas existentes com os métodos manuais utiliz

Aquesta tesi es centra a l'estudi de les relacions biològiques entre els grups humans durant la transició del Mesolític (9.500 cal BCE - 5.500 cal BCE) al Neolític (5.600 cal BCE - 2.200 cal BCE) en el Nord-est de la Península Ibérica. El procés de Neolitització al Oest d'Europa, i en concret a la Península Ibérica, ha estat un tema de intens debat entre arqueòlegs i entre antropòlegs. En aquest treball es pretén analitzar aquesta qüestió mitjançant l'estudi dels caràcters dentals no-mètrics.

Abstract:

This study focuses on how to define and measure usability in systems used for operational train traffic control. The study is conducted as a project for the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket); the authority that is in charge of the train traffic in Sweden. The train dispatchers are the ones that control the train traffic. Their job includes much decision-making and problem solving and they need to have complete control in each situation. The systems used for train dispatching therefore need to be designed to comply with human cognitive capabilities and skills, to support the users

Abstract:

Grasslands are one of the most important ecosystems on Earth, covering approximately one-third of the Earth’s surface. Grassland biodiversity is important as many services provided by such ecosystems are crucial for the human economy and well-being. Given the importance of grasslands ecosystems, in recent years research has been carried out on the potential to monitor them with novel remote sensing techniques. Improved detectors technology and novel sensors providing fine-scale hyperspectral imagery have been enabling new methods to monitor plant traits (PTs) and biodiversity. The aims of the

The computational methodology of spike train metric is based on dynamic programming, which is very time consuming for long length of spike trains. Therefore, this research uses the technique of parallel processing on computer graphics to improve the performance.

Abstract:

This research sought to use non-metric traits to better understand the relationship among burial samples at the southwestern Pennsylvania Campbell Farm site (36FA26). This study intended to discover whether the individuals at the site were related to each other, and focused on the non-metric traits observed within the population. One additional reason for the research was to test whether non-metric trait analysis is a reliable indicator of familial relationships on a small sample. With the information gained through data collection, a picture of familial lineage possibly may be better understo

Ancestry assessments in bioarchaeology and forensic anthropology are best analyzed with population-specific methods. Through population-specific ancestry methods, the generalized Native American/Asian ancestry category can be better refined to reflect the diversity of Native American and Asiatic people. Individuals from modern (~1900 to present) Seminole Native American and Japanese populations, housed at The Ohio State University and Jikei University in Tokyo, respectively, reflect a relatively unbiased population sample, as demographics range from juveniles to adults, with both sexes being e

This analysis examined cranial epigenetic and morphological nonmetric traits in 756 subadults (fetal to <20 years), in European, African, and Asian samples. The goals of this research were to assess: the age and manner in which nonmetric traits develop and if variation between geographic groupings is present in subadults; the role of the adolescent growth spurt in trait expression; the feasibility of utilizing subadult crania in biological distance studies and ancestry assessment. A number of epigenetic and morphological traits show a primarily genetic versus developmental basis, suggested

Abstract:

Research on the estimation of age at death, sex and stature from skeletal remains has received more attention than methods used to evaluate ancestry. While this may be due to the stigma attached to classifying people into groups, the application, interpretation and precision of non-metric methods used to predict ancestry need to be examined; as these variables are routinely applied to forensic case work in South Africa. The aim of this study was to score fifteen non-metric cranial traits, namely nasal bone structure, nasal breadth, nasal overgrowth, anterior nasal spine, inferior nasal margin,
