3-D Image Analysis via Jacobi Moments with GPU-Accelerated Algorithms
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2021-11-22)This research has developed a parallel algorithm to compute 3-Dimensional Jacobi moments with high efficiency and accuracy. The algorithm was implemented in CUDA C. Our developing progress was in the order of Legendre ... -
3D Convolutional Neural Networks for Solving Complex Digital Agriculture and Medical Imaging Problems
(University of WinnipeUniversity of Winnipeg, 2022-06)3D signals have become widely popular in view of the advantage they provide via 3D representations of data by employing a third spatial or temporal dimension to extend 2D signals. Predominantly, 3D signals contain details ... -
Accelerating Computation of Zernike and Pseudo-Zernike Moments with a GPU Algorithm
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2020-12-09)Although Zernike and pseudo-Zernike moments have some advanced properties, the computation process is generally very time-consuming, which has limited their practical applications. To improve the computational efficiency ... -
Accessing Medical Assistance in Death (MAiD): An interpretative phenomenological analysis of experiences with MAiD by family members and providers in Manitoba
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2021)This research explored first-hand experiences with medical assistance in death (MAiD) in Manitoba. It aimed to uncover what experiences revealed about the process behind this new end-of-life option in Canada. Specifically, ... -
The Anabaptist Concept of the Church
(University of WinnipegUnited College, 1950-03)This thesis examines the Anabaptist concept of the church. -
Analysis of Impact of Alcohol on Brain's Activity
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2021-11-30)Electroencephalography is an electrophysiological monitoring process to capture electrical activity on the scalp that has been shown to represent the macroscopic activity of the surface layer of the brain underneath. It ... -
Anishinaabeg Kinship Diplomacy and Animal Nations: A Critical Review of Political Leadership
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2018-04)In this thesis I argue that engagement with animal nations to remake the world is an embedded practice of Anishinaabeg stories. From the perspective of my survey of the Anishinaabeg resurgence literature I conclude that ... -
Anishinaabekwewag Teachings of Self-Determination
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2020-08-12)Since being excluded from decolonization efforts in the mid-twentieth century on the grounds that they were not colonized peoples but minorities living within sovereign states, Indigenous peoples have called for a broader ... -
Anthony Burgess and God, faith and evil, language and the ludic in the novels of a manichaean wordboy
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Manitoba, 1997-05)In this thesis, a detailed study of religious and ethical themes in selected novels by the late British writer, Anthony Burgess, will be undertaken. I will demonstrate that his work contains a consistent ethical worldview, ... -
Antimicrobial and Chemical Studies on a Medicinally important Plant: Curcuma longa
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2021-04-20)This thesis describes phytochemical studies on the methanolic extract of Curcuma longa; a medicinally important plant used as indigenous medicine for the treatment of wounds in South Asian and African countries. The crude ... -
The Authorship and Characteristics of the Fourth Gospel and its Interrelation with the Synoptic Gospels
(University of WinnipegWesley College, 1930-03)The Fourth Gospel has been traditionally attributed to John. In modern times there has been much discussion about the authorship and value of the Fourth Gospel as a source of knowledge of its time because of the contradictions ... -
Automated Deep Neural Network Approach for Detection of Epileptic Seizures
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2021-12-09)In this thesis, I focus on exploiting electroencephalography (EEG) signals for early seizure diagnosis in patients. This process is based on a powerful deep learning algorithm for times series data called Long Short-Term ... -
Automated Land Use and Land Cover Map Production: A Deep Learning Framework
(University of WinnipegUniversity of Winnipeg, 2018-10-19)In this thesis, we present an approach to automating the creation of land use and land cover (LULC) maps from satellite images using deep neural networks that were developed to perform semantic segmentation of natural ... -
