Condition assessment of patients with Type 1 diabetes using compositional data analysis 

Biagi, Lyvia (Date of defense: 2019-07-09)

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic disease that leads to absolute insulin deficiency. People with T1DM need exogenous insulin to maintain glucose at proper levels. Achieving optimal glycemic control is a major ...

Development and validation of strategies to mitigate the risk of hypoglycemic events in type 1 diabetes mellitus 

Bertachi, Arthur Hirata (Date of defense: 2019-07-08)

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic condition resulting from the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells due to an autoimmune process that may occur at any age, but tends to develop in childhood and ...

Word-processing-based routing for Cayley graphs 

Aguirre Guerrero, Daniela (Date of defense: 2019-05-15)

This Thesis focuses on the problem of generic routing in Cayley Graphs(CGs). These graphs are a geometric representation of algebraic groups and have been used as topologies of a wide variety of communication networks. ...

Novel methods for the efficacy and safety in the artificial pancreas intended for domiciliary use 

Ramkissoon, Charrise Mary (Date of defense: 2019-03-07)

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that targets the insulin producing β-cells in the pancreas that results in chronically elevated blood glucose (BG) levels and requires lifelong insulin-replacement therapy. ...

Decision support framework for space-use optimization and arrangement of public services 

Rusek, Robert (Date of defense: 2017-05-24)

The thesis concentrates particularly on how to enhance space-use in the case of public facilities. This issue has been approached by repurposing existing facilities and introducing additional services, thereby creating ...

Constraint-based metabolic models and their application in industrial biotechnology 

Morales Pérez, Yeimy Liceth (Date of defense: 2016-07-12)

This thesis is focused on the application of small constraint-based models to analyze and predict the behavior of wild type and modified strains of Pichia pastoris. The presented work deals with the common limitations that ...

Modal interval based package for robust control 

Ferrer Mallorquí, Inès (Date of defense: 2016-06-17)

Complex systems are often subjected to uncertainties that make its model difficult, if not impossible to obtain. A quantitative model may be inadequate to represent the behavior of systems which require an explicit re ...

Advanced illumination and view-selection techniques for volume rendering and its application to medical imaging 

Ruiz Altisent, Marc (Date of defense: 2012-05-04)

Volume visualization is a method of extracting information from volumetric data using interactive graphics. Volume visualization aims to assist visual interpretation of data by creating three-dimensional models that reproduce ...
