Abstract:
This thesis addresses the significance of speech features within the task of speaker recognition. Motivated by the perception of simple attributes like `loud', `smooth', `fast', more than 70 new speech features are developed. A set of basic speech features like pitch, loudness and speech speed are combined together with these new features in a feature set, one set per utterance. A neural network classifier is used to evaluate the significance of these features by creating a speaker recognition system and analysing the behaviour of successfully trained single-speaker networks.

Abstract:
Throughout history, people have made or acquired vessels from which to sip their favourite beverage. In the contemporary domestic setting, households frequently accumulate multiples of the same type of object in numbers that are considerably greater than is necessary and practical for use alone. Of these many objects there are often individual pieces that have special significance for the owner or user. Some are so valued that they may even be removed and set aside because of their perceived importance. The research was initiated by a previous study of tea drinking vessels coupled with a d

Abstract:
Natural killer (NK) cells reconstitute rapidly following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) at a time when alloreactive T cell immunity is being established. Important differences are seen in the patterns of reconstitution between T cell deplete, T cell replete and umbilical cord stem cell transplants. 82 patients who received T cell-deplete allo-SCT were studied to determine the functional and transcriptional profile of the reconstituting NK cells and to assess the relationship with clinical outcome. NK cells at day 14 (D14-NK) were donor-derived, intensely proliferating and expr

Abstract:
In this thesis, we present a new clustering algorithm we call <em>Significance Feature Clustering</em>, which is designed to cluster text documents. Its central premise is the mapping of raw frequency count vectors to discrete-valued significance vectors which contain values of -1, 0, or 1. These values represent whether a word is <em>significantly negative</em>, <em>neutral</em>, or <em>significantly positive</em>, respectively. Initially, standard tf-idf vectors are computed from raw frequency vectors, then these tf-idf vectors are transformed to significance vectors using a

Stem cells differentiate through an organized hierarchy of intermediate cell types to terminally differentiated cell types. This process is largely guided by master transcriptional regulators, but it also depends on the expression of many other types of genes. The discrete cell types in the differentiation hierarchy are often identified based on the expression or non-expression of certain marker genes. Historically, these have often been various cell-surface proteins, which are fairly easy to assay biochemically but are not necessarily causative of the cell type, in the sense of being master t
