The rapid advancement of autonomous driving systems requires robust perception algorithms. Interpreting complex environments and simulation-based testing plays a vital role in validating these algorithms. This research explores the use of the Driving Scenario Designer app in MATLAB® workspace to...

Green roofs (GRs) are typically used to retain stormwater and are increasingly being used to produce food by growing edible vegetation, such as Mad Hatter Peppers (Capsicum baccatum). However, there have been conflicting studies on whether GRs can feasibly produce Capsicum baccatum in GRs compared t...

The CDC reports that over two million people in the United States alone become infected with antibiotic resistant bacteria. This paper studies one of the primary mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, efflux, in Escherichia coli. EmrA and EmrB proteins, belonging to the efflux pump EmrAB-TolC were pur...

In modern environmental and biological research, gene mutation by GMOs and DNA oxidation by biphenyl and BPDE intercalation take up critical positions regarding their potential risks to genetic stability. GMOs are monitored for unintended effects, and BPDE pollution is managed due to their carcinoge...

Polysomnography is a frequently used tool for diagnosing disorders like sleep-related hypermotor epilepsy (SHE) and rapid-eye-movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD). It is highly inefficient because often-infrequent seizure events are required to reach a diagnosis. Also, SHE and RBD are difficult to...
