    Development and Psychometric Evaluation of a Short Measure of Personal Intelligence

    Year: 2024, 2024
    Member of: Trent University Graduate Thesis Collection
    Name(s): Creator (cre): van Rens, Samantha M, Thesis advisor (ths): Parker, James D.A., Thesis advisor (ths): Summerfeldt, Laura J., Degree committee member (dgc): Saklofske, Donald, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>The Multidimensional Inventory of Personal Intelligence (MIPI) was designed to measure three related dimensions of the personal intelligence (PI) construct: emotional intelligence (EI), social intelligence (SI), and motivational intelligence (MI). The MIPI has psychometric properties and a theoretical structure that improves on the shortcomings of existing trait EI measures. The aim of… more

    Mathematical Biology: Analysis of Predator-Prey Systems in Patchy Environment Influenced by the Fear Effect

    Year: 2024, 2024
    Member of: Trent University Graduate Thesis Collection
    Name(s): Creator (cre): Smit, AJ, Thesis advisor (ths): Wang, Xiaoying, Degree committee member (dgc): Wang, Xiaoying, Degree committee member (dgc): Pollanen, Marco, Degree committee member (dgc): Kong, Jude, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>This thesis is focused on studying the population dynamics of a predator-prey system in a patchy environment, taking anti-predation responses into consideration. Firstly, we conduct mathematical analysis on the equilibrium solutions of the system. Using techniques from calculus we show that particular steady state solutions exist when the parameters of the system meet certain criteria.… more

    A weather-drive bio-economic optimization model for agricultural planning

    Year: 2024, 2024
    Member of: Trent University Graduate Thesis Collection
    Name(s): Creator (cre): Bernard, Bunnel, Thesis advisor (ths): Abdella, Kenzu, Thesis advisor (ths): Narine, Suresh, Degree committee member (dgc): Bouzidi, Laziz, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>This thesis introduces a weather-driven bio-economic optimization model for agricultural planning and decision-making. The model integrates weather simulations—including precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, and reference evapotranspiration (ETo)—to estimate crop yields using the AquaCrop simulator. These yield estimates are then incorporated into a multi-objective optimization… more

    Optimized Deep CNN Model for Enhanced COVID-19 Detection

    Year: 2024, 2024
    Member of: Trent University Graduate Thesis Collection
    Name(s): Creator (cre): Hashemipoor, Sayed Mansour, Thesis advisor (ths): Feng, Wenying, Degree committee member (dgc): Hurley, Richard, Degree committee member (dgc): Genkin, Mikhail, Degree committee member (dgc): Bandi, Ajay, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>This research presented an AI-driven methodology for precise COVID-19 detectionin medical diagnostic imaging using chest X-ray images. The primary focus
    was on developing an optimized model using convolutional neural networks (CNNs)
    and leveraging transfer learning as a low-level feature extractor method. Significant
    attention was also so given to data transformation and enhancement… more
