Early sensitivity for eyes within faces: A new neuronal account of holistic and featural processing
(Elsevier, 2014-08-01)Eyes are central to face processing however their role in early face encoding as reflected by the N170 ERP component is unclear. Using eye tracking to enforce fixation on specific facial features, we found that the N170 ... -
Early Somatosensory Processing and Crossmodal Influences
(University of Waterloo, 2021-09-29)Sensory stimuli from distinct modalities are continuously linked together by the brain to create a cohesive percept of the surrounding environment—a process known as multisensory integration. Furthermore, sensory information ... -
The Early Universe: New Aspects of Cuscuton Theory, Modified Dispersion Relations and Pulsar Constraints on Vacuum Noise
(University of Waterloo, 2017-10-26)The modern cosmology started blossoming in the early 1900s, with the theoretical framework provided by Einstein's general relativity. Soon after that, with observational discoveries such as expansion of cosmos by Hubble ... -
Early Warning Signals of Vaccine Scares.
(University of Waterloo, 2016-09-26)There exists strong evidence that vaccines are extremely effective in the prevention of pediatric infectious disease, yet despite this evidence, vaccine refusal is still popular amongst some parents. Existing mathematical ... -
Early-rearing Environment and Mate Choice in Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) Aquaculture: Effects on the Immune System
(University of Waterloo, 2011-08-09)Canada is the fourth largest producer of farmed salmon in the world, with Atlantic salmon being the major species cultivated. Paradoxically British Columbia (BC), which borders the Pacific Ocean, is the major producer ... -
Early-Stage Incorporation Strategy for Regioselective Labeling of Peptides using the 2-Cyanobenzothiazole/1,2-Aminothiol Bioorthogonal Click Reaction
(Wiley, 2018-03)Herein, we describe a synthetic strategy for the regioselective labeling of peptides by using a bioorthogonal click reaction between 2‐cyanobenzothiazole (CBT) and a 1,2‐aminothiol moiety. This methodology allows for the ... -
Earth and environmental science immersive learning experiences using a Google Expedition Kit
(2019-07-31)How do we engage and motivate students in immersive learning experiences that are otherwise impossible (i.e. Geologic History of the Grand Canyon) or not feasible (i.e. 3D perspective of volcanoes of the world) or invisible ... -
The Eberlein Compactification of Locally Compact Groups
(University of Waterloo, 2013-01-24)A compact semigroup is, roughly, a semigroup compactification of a locally compact group if it contains a dense homomorphic image of the group. The theory of semigroup compactifications has been developed in connection ... -

ECG Noise Filtering Using Online Model-Based Bayesian Filtering Techniques
(University of Waterloo, 2013-09-26)The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a time-varying electrical signal that interprets the electrical activity of the heart. It is obtained by a non-invasive technique known as surface electromyography (EMG), used widely in ... -
Echoes of decolonization | From North Africa to Europe: questioning the trip back home
(University of Waterloo, 2021-10-26)The Colonial Modern enterprise in North Africa produced unique architectural responses in the twentieth century, oscillating between rupture with the past and continuity of the tradition, negotiation of indigenous expression ... -
Echoes of Industry: Reinterpreting Artifacts of the Lachine Canal
(University of Waterloo, 2012-08-30)Montreal’s Lachine Canal, once the cradle of Canadian industry, is now riddled with industrial ruins, testaments to its productive past. Since the canal’s closing in the 1970’s, different attempts were made to reinterpret ... -
Eco-Innovation with Opportunity of Licensing and Threat of Imitation
(Elsevier, 2017-03-20)We consider the product and process innovation effort decisions a sustainable (eco) manufacturer (innovator/leader) makes in the presence of a traditional manufacturer (imitator/follower) who may procure a license or imitate ... -
Ecological Assessment of Re-flooded Mesopotamian Marshes (Iraq)
(University of Waterloo, 2015-12-17)Assessing the ecological characteristics (water quality and the biological functions) of the Mesopotamian marshes is necessary to evaluate their recovery. Mesopotamian marshes have been affected by several anthropogenic ... -
Ecological Control and Coordination of Connected and Automated PHEVs at Roundabouts under Uncertainty
(University of Waterloo, 2019-12-20)During the last decade, comprehensive research efforts were concentrated on autonomous driving. Annually, many car accidents happen as a result of human faults. Extreme traffic congestion prolongs commute time, increase ... -
ECOLOGICAL CRISIS AND HUMAN NATURE: The Green and Liberal Approaches
(University of Waterloo, 2003)The concept of human nature profoundly shapes our understanding of how political and social life ought to be organised. This thesis examines the concept of human nature developed by the Green political perspective and ... -
Ecological Economic Development Goals: Reincorporating the social sphere in ecological economic theory and practice
(University of Waterloo, 2018-04-30)The various approaches and methods within ecological economics all have their benefits, limitations, and internal debates. In this dissertation, I focus on macro-social theoretical ecological economics which seeks to find ... -
Ecological Economics and Dynamic Games: A Systematic Literature Review
(World Scientific Publishing, 2024)Ecological and environmental economics are inherently dynamic systems requiring dynamic optimization tools. Understanding the interplay between environmental economics, ecological economics, and dynamic games is crucial. ... -
