    • The quality of survival of patients with malignant cerebal glioma following radiotherapy 

      Davies, Elizabeth (Queen Mary University of London, 1998)
      Objective- To describe survival, disability and morbidity after radiotherapy for malignant glioma and explore patient and relative experience. Design - Home follow-up of patients and relative over up to 24 months and of ...

    • Quantifying mutual-understanding in dialogue 

      Colman, Marcus (Queen Mary University of London, 2012)
      There are two components of communication that provide a natural index of mutual-understanding in dialogue. The first is Repair; the ways in which people detect and deal with problems with understanding. The second is ...

    • Quantifying spatial heterogeneity and urban segregation on networks through diffusion 

      Ferreira-Sousa, Sandro (Queen Mary University of London, 2022-03)
      The spatial organisation of individuals and socio-economic activities govern the structure and dynamics of most cities, influencing the interaction among population groups, social equity and urban development. This process ...

    • Quantifying Threedimensional Fabric in Tills using X-ray Microcomputed Tomography 

      Groves JWE (Queen Mary University of London, 24/01/2019)
      Deforming subglacial tills have a significant influence on the dynamics of many glaciers and ice sheets; however, due to their inaccessibility and spatial/temporal heterogeneity, laws defining their behaviour and rheology ...

    • Quantile Regression Approaches for Auctions 

      Sanches, Nathalie C. Gimenes Miessi (Queen Mary University of London, 2014-03-13)
      The goal of this thesis is to propose a new quantile regression approach to identify and estimate the quantiles of the private value conditional distribution in ascending and rst price auctions under the Independent Private ...

    • Quantitative Information Flow of Side-Channel Leakages in Web Applications 

      Huang, Xujing (Queen Mary University of London, 2016-05-10)
      It is not a secret that communications between client sides and server sides in web applications can leak user confidential data through side-channel attacks. The lower lever traffic features, such as packet sizes, ...

    • Quantitative Measurement of Clonal Evolution in Human Colon 

      Gabbutt, Calum (Queen Mary University of London, 2021-12-17)
      The clonal history of a cell is recorded within its (epi)genome via the accumulation of heritable changes. Studying the patterns of these heritable changes, termed lineage tracing markers, allows for the reconstruction of ...

    • Quantitative Measurements of the Demineralisation Rates and Mineral Masses of Deciduous and Permanent Enamel 

      Hassanali, Linda (Queen Mary University of London, 2018-06-14)
      Human deciduous and permanent enamel samples were simultaneously exposed to 0.1 M acetic acid pH 4.0 solution with an increasing calcium and phosphate concentration. Demineralisation rates at each calcium and phosphate ...

    • Quantitative Perturbation Theory for Compact Operators on a Hilbert Space 

      Guven, Ayse (Queen Mary University of London, 2016-08)
      This thesis makes novel contributions to a problem of practical and theoretical importance, namely how to determine explicitly computable upper bounds for the Hausdorff distance of the spectra of two compact operators ...

    • Quantitative Unique Continuation and Applications 

      Taeufer, M (2018-10-09)

    • Quantum gravity and Cosmological models on finite space-times 

      Argota Quiroz, JN
      We study different quantum geometries using the Quantum Riemannian Geometry (QRG) formalism, constructing some quantum gravity and cosmological models over them. First, we fully solve the quantum geometry of Zn as a polygon ...

    • Quantum Groups and Noncommutative Complex Geometry. 

      O Buachalla, Reamonn (Queen Mary University of London, 2013)
      Noncommutative Riemannian geometry is an area that has seen intense activity over the past 25 years. Despite this, noncommutative complex geometry is only now beginning to receive serious attention. The theory of quantum ...

    • A Quasi-Bayesian Local Likelihood Approach to Time Varying Parameter Models 

      Petrova, Katerina (Queen Mary University of London, 2016-09-05)
      This thesis proposes a new econometric methodology for the estimation and inference of macro- economic models in the presence of time variation in the parameters. A novel quasi-Bayesian local likelihood (QBLL) approach ...

    • Quasi-Fuchsian correspondences. 

      Samarasinghe, Manjula L (Queen Mary University of London, 2013-04)
      We consider the action of holomorphic correspondences or equally algebraic functions acting on the Riemann sphere C and their limit sets: a holomorphic correspondence is a polynomial relation, P(z;w) = 0 in z and w: A ...

    • A Quasi-Optical Astronomical Receiver. 

      Lesurf, James Christopher George (Queen Mary University of London, 1981-02)
      This thesis describes the work undertaken in producing the passive radio-frequency section of a heterodyne receiver for use on the United Kingdom Infra-Red Telescope at signal frequencies in the 200-300 GHz range. This ...
