The incomplete
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1993)Alienation in the built environment can happen in two ways: 1. When man cannot relate himself to his immediate surrounding (for example, the structure he is in); or 2. when the place he is in does not relate to the larger ... -
Incomplete sentences : exploitation and empowerment in American incarceration media
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Nearly 7 million individuals are currently under correctional supervision in America, with around 2.3 million confined in county, state, federal, and private correctional facilities. For those who are not currently and ... -
Incompressible journal bearings with combined hydrostatic-hydrodynamic action.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1965) -
Incorporating a feature tree geometry into a matcher for a speech recognizer
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)The goal of this thesis is to incorporate a feature tree geometry into an existing matcher for a lexical access system. Proposed by Professors Kenneth N. Stevens and Samuel Jay Keyser in their paper Feature Geometry and ... -
Incorporating alternative delivery methods into the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001) -
Incorporating attitudes in airline itinerary choice : modeling the impact of elapsed time
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Network airlines traditionally try to minimize the elapsed time of their passengers in connecting travel, based on the assumption that longer elapsed times would make their itinerary less competitive and thus reduce their ... -
Incorporating automated feature engineering routines into automated machine learning pipelines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Automating the construction of consistently high-performing machine learning pipelines has remained difficult for researchers, especially given the domain knowledge and expertise often necessary for achieving optimal ... -
Incorporating contact management and marine dynamics in decentralized auction bidding for autonomous surface vehicles
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)This research studies techniques that can be applied to practical multi-task multi-vessel marine applications to manage mission planning for autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs). This thesis investigated the use of a ... -
Incorporating cycle time uncertainty to improve railcar fleet sizing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This thesis involves railcar fleet sizing strategies with a specific company in the chemical industry. We note that the identity of the company in this report has been disguised, and some portions of the fleets have been ... -
Incorporating direct demand modeling and improved modal choice into freight commodity movement models.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1974) -
Incorporating diverse data to improve genetic network alignment with IsoRank
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)To more accurately predict which genes from different species have the same function (orthologs), I extend the network-alignment algorithm IsoRank to simultaneously align multiple unrelated networks over the same set of ... -
Incorporating endogenous demand dynamics into long-term capacity expansion power system models for Developing countries
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)This research develops a novel approach to long-term power system capacity expansion planning for developing countries by incorporating endogenous demand dynamics resulting from social processes of technology adoption. ... -
Incorporating flexibility into system design : a novel framework and illustrated developments
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Many complex engineering systems in general, and aerospace systems in particular, are highly ''optimized" designs, fielded to provide mission superiority or market competitive advantage. Two noticeable trends over the last ... -
Incorporating flow-accelerated corrosion effects into probabilistic risk assessment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Incorporating livability benefits into the Federal Transit Administration New Starts project evaluation process through accessibility-based modeling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The Department of Transportation's announcement of the "Livability initiative" for major transit projects in January 2010 has prompted the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to reassess the criteria used in the evaluation ... -
Incorporating modern development and evaluation techniques into the creation of large-scale, spacecraft control software
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)One of the major challenges facing the development of today's safety- and mission-critical space systems involves the construction of software to support the goals and objectives of these missions, especially those associated ... -
Incorporating Mullins Effect into the Modeling of Hyperelastic Actuators
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-06)The use of hyperelastic materials in actuators has become increasingly popular due their immense number of degrees of freedom, ability to recover from large deformations, and the capability to absorb energy in many types ... -
Incorporating nodal and zonal room air models into building energy calculation procedures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002) -
Incorporating operational flexibility into electric generation planning : impacts and methods for system design and policy analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)This dissertation demonstrates how flexibility in hourly electricity operations can impact long-term planning and analysis for future power systems, particularly those with substantial variable renewables (e.g., wind) or ... -
Incorporating pitch features for tone modeling in automatic recognition of Mandarin Chinese
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Tone plays a fundamental role in Mandarin Chinese, as it plays a lexical role in determining the meanings of words in spoken Mandarin. For example, these two sentences ... (I like horses) and ... (I like to scold) differ ...
