Simulating melodic and harmonic expectations for tonal cadences using probabilistic models by David R. W. Sears (4421653)

“…Using the Information Dynamics of Music model (or IDyOM) to simulate the formation of schematic expectations—a finite-context (or <i>n</i>-gram) model that predicts the next event in a musical stimulus by acquiring knowledge through unsupervised statistical learning of sequential structure—we predict the terminal melodic and harmonic events from 245 exemplars of the five most common cadence categories from the classical style. …”

Estimation of Heat Capacity of Ionic Liquids Using <i>S</i>_σ‑profile Molecular Descriptors by Yongsheng Zhao (1427761)

“…In order to estimate the heat capacity of ionic liquids (ILs), statistical models have been proposed using the quantum-chemical based charge distribution area (<i>S</i>_σ‑profile) as the molecular descriptors for two different mathematical algorithms: multiple linear regression (MLR) and extreme learning machine (ELM). A total of 2416 experimental data points, belonging to 46 ILs over a wide temperature range (223.1–663 K) at atmospheric pressure, have been utilized to carry out validation. …”

Alterations in Brain Inflammation, Synaptic Proteins, and Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis during Epileptogenesis in Mice Lacking Synapsin2 by Deepti Chugh (325503)

“…Hence, they provide an opportunity to study epileptogenic alterations in a temporally controlled manner. Here, we evaluated brain inflammation, synaptic protein expression, and adult hippocampal neurogenesis in the epileptogenic (1 and 2 months of age) and tonic-clonic (3.5-4 months) phase of synapsin 2 knockout mice using immunohistochemical and biochemical assays. …”
