Recognizing discrimination explicitly while denying it implicitly: Implicit social identity protection
(University of Waterloo, 2010-05-19)Past research suggests that members of devalued groups recognize their group is discriminated against. Do the implicit responses of members of these groups demonstrate the same pattern? I argue that they do not and that ... -
Recognizing Even-Cycle and Even-Cut Matroids
(University of Waterloo, 2016-04-27)Even-cycle and even-cut matroids are classes of binary matroids that generalize respectively graphic and cographic matroids. We give algorithms to check membership for these classes of matroids. We assume that the matroids ... -
Recognizing Features in Mobile Laser Scanning Point Clouds Towards 3D High-definition Road Maps for Autonomous Vehicles
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-29)The sensors mounted on a driverless vehicle are not always reliable for precise localization and navigation. By comparing the real-time sensory data with a priori map, the autonomous navigation system can transform the ... -
Recognizing Magnification Levels in Microscopic Snapshots using Machine Learning
(University of Waterloo, 2020-09-25)State-of-of-the-art computer vision research has facilitated technology evolution in the field of medical imaging. The primary achievement of the imaging algorithms developed is the extraction of expressive features from ... -
Recognizing Structural Nonidentifiability: When Experiments Do Not Provide Information About Important Parameters and Misleading Models Can Still Have Great Fit
(Wiley, 2020-02)In the quest to model various phenomena, the foundational importance of parameter identifiability to sound statistical modeling may be less well appreciated than goodness of fit. Identifiability concerns the quality of ... -
Recognizing the role of gender and food security in type 2 diabetes nutrition education in rural southwestern Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2014-04-24)Food systems and health systems are interdependent. Historically, however, strategies that focused on the development of these systems evolved in isolation from one another. Non-communicable diseases such as type 2 diabetes ... -
Recollecting Identity: Food, Culture, Space and Place in the Street Markets of Hong Kong
(University of Waterloo, 2023-05-04)The research investigates the importance of culture and placemaking in defining food urbanism in Hong Kong with a culture at risk of disappearing. Considering current revitalization projects and the removal of local street ... -
Recombinant lysine:N§6-hydroxylase, conformational response to Cys --> Ala substitutions and interaction with its ligands

Recommendations for Bank and Bluff Erosion Monitoring Using Citizen Science in Walkerton, Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2023-09-26)The Saugeen River flows directly through downtown Walkerton, Ontario and it is cutting into its valley across from Riverbend Park. The river has encroached into the valley walls, resulting in consistent and considerable ... -
Recommender Systems for Personalized Gamification
(ACM, 2017-07-09)Gamification has been used in a variety of application domains to promote behaviour change. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind it are still not fully understood. Recent empirical results have shown that personalized ... -
Recommending messages to users in participatory media environments: a Bayesian credibility approach
(University of Waterloo, 2014-04-09)In this thesis, we address the challenge of information overload in online participatory messaging environments using an artificial intelligence approach drawn from research in multiagent systems trust modeling. In particular, ... -
Reconceptualising relationships in the dementia context: Imagining the caring process as fertile ground for friendship between persons living with dementia and paid care partners
(University of Waterloo, 2020-07-02)Increasing concerns about the task-oriented, disease focused, and impersonal culture of Long Term Care (LTC) have led to calls for the adoption of relational caring, advocating for relationships to be at the centre of all ... -
Reconciling the Car and the City: A Vision of Productive Urban Mobility
(University of Waterloo, 2011-04-26)The relationship between cars and cities is changing. The auto-centric development predominant in America in the 20th century is beginning to subside and disappear. It is being replaced by efforts to make cities more ... -
Reconfigurable Cryogenic Microwave Devices Using Low Temperature Superconducting rf-SQUIDs
(University of Waterloo, 2022-11-21)In the physical implementation of modern superconducting quantum computing systems, microwaves play a significant role in the control and measurement of qubits. The advances towards the use of microwaves in the quantum ... -
Reconfigurable Impedance Matching Networks Based on RF-MEMS and CMOS-MEMS Technologies
(University of Waterloo, 2010-05-18)Reconfigurable impedance matching networks are an integral part of multiband radio-frequency (RF) transceivers. They are used to compensate for the input/output impedance variations between the different blocks caused by ... -
Reconfigurable Integrated Control for Urban Vehicles with Different Types of Control Actuation
(University of Waterloo, 2017-12-08)Urban vehicles are designed to deal with traffic problems, air pollution, energy consumption, and parking limitations in large cities. They are smaller and narrower than conventional vehicles, and thus more susceptible to ... -
Reconfigurable Integrated Vehicle Stability Control Using Optimal Control Techniques
(University of Waterloo, 2017-09-15)The motivation for the development of vehicle stability control systems comes from the fact that vehicle dynamic behavior in unfavorable driving conditions such as low road-tire adhesion and high speed differs greatly from ... -
Reconfigurable Power Combiner and Miniature Filter
(University of Waterloo, 2020-01-23)Microwave communication systems have undergone tremendous changes in the past two decades. There is an ever-growing demand for devices with higher performance, lower cost and smaller size. Hence, more focus is given to ... -
Reconfiguration and Self-healing Mechanisms in Distribution Systems with High Distributed Generation (DG) Penetration
