Fixed-order control design for LMI control problems using alternating projection methods

This paper suggests some simple computational techniques for control design, for problems described by linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). In particular, we concentrate on the stabilization and the suboptimal H/sub /spl infin// output-feedback control design problems. These problems can be described by a pair of LMIs and an additional coupling condition. This coupling condition is convex for the full-order control design problem, however convexity is lost for the controller design problem of order strictly less that the plant order. We formulate these problems as feasibility problems with matrix set constraints of simple geometry, and we develop analytical expressions for the projection operators onto these sets. For the full-order design problem, our alternating projection techniques are guaranteed to converge globally to a feasible solution. However, for the low-order case, the convergence is guaranteed only locally. Examples illustrate the suggested approach. <<ETX>>

From propolis to designer biomaterials for the applications in the veterinary medicine: copazan herbal gel with beepolis and wound healing in vitro

Since early ages, all living vertebrate species have interacted with pathogenic microorganisms that caused several disease states; at that time nature provided its own solutions to maintain balance in the environment. With time and observation, human beings were able to identify the therapeutic effects of available plants and natural resources and developed a form of medicine known as “natural medicine. ” Natural medicine uses natural remedies for the treatment and prevention of disease states. Among the natural agents, propolis has been used in the treatment of disease. At the initial stages, the use of propolis in veterinary medicine was limited to antibacterial applications, but as time went by, newer applications were discovered for this product used by bees.
Clinical and histopathological features of ovarian cancer in Rizgary Hospital/Erbil City from 2014 to 2017

Background: Ovarian cancer is a heterogeneous disease with variations in clinical behavior and outcome. It is a group of many subtypes with distinct biological features that lead to differences in response to treatments, recurrence rates, and survival. Objective: The aim of the study is to describe the epidemiology of the diagnosed cases of ovarian cancer from 2014 to 2017 in Erbil, Iraq. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study, 100 ovarian cancer cases were reviewed from Rizgary Oncology Center in Erbil. Then, we compared histological types with age groups of the study as premenopausal and postmenopausal, stage of the disease, grade, and with side of tumor. Furthermore, this study includes the most important risk factors that may affect the incidence of ovarian cancer which includes menarche age, age of menopause, and with obesity. Results: The result showed that ovarian cancer occurs in old age groups with a percentage of 64%. The most common type is epithelial ovarian cancer with subtype papillary serous adenocarcinoma in 56%, with all types, the most affected site is the right one in a percent of 57%. Grade 3 is the dominant one at presentation in a percent of 49%. About staging at the time of diagnosis, Stage 4 presented in a percent of 58%, and 16% of patients were obese. Conclusion: Most common type of cancer is epithelial type of papillary serous cystadenocarcinoma histology that occur in old patients and presented in advanced stage at the time of diagnosis with poor differentiation, and the most effective treatment is total abdominal hysterectomy + bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy followed by adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy.
Online Entropy Estimation for Non-Binary Sources and Applications on iPhone

The design of a random number generator is a challenging task on systems in changing environment such as smartphones. Finding reliable and high-throughput sources of entropy is difficult. This paper proposes an online entropy estimation algorithm to test the quality of an entropy source when nothing is known \textit{a priori} on the source statistics. Our estimator can be executed at a low cost and is adapted for any type of sources. It extends the results of Bucci and Luzzi to non-binary sources and introduces a parameter that allows to trade time and memory for a better estimate. Our estimator is then applied to several sources available on an iPhone and compare to the state of the art.

IgE antibody in serum-detection and diagnostic significance as a biomarker in patients with uncontrolled asthma

Background: The presence of atopy increases the probability that a patient with respiratory symptoms has allergic asthma but this is not specific for asthma nor is it present in all asthma phenotypes. Atopic status can be identified by skin prick testing or level of serum IgE. Ig E is a tissue bound molecule found in serum in equilibrium with that bound to mast cells and basophils. The aim of this study was to evaluate the levels of serum total IgE in patients with uncontrolled asthma and test the significance of serum IgE as a biomarker/predictor of severity for uncontrolled asthma. Materials and Methods: A simple random sampling of 55 patients in the age group of 5 to 63 years with 19 males and 36 females over two groups of 45 cases with uncontrolled asthma and 10 controls of controlled asthma were included in the study. Clinical examination, spirometry and serum IgE levels were measured. Results: The level of serum IgE was high in 80 % of the total study population with as high as 88.8% in the uncontrolled asthma group and 40 % in the controlled group. The mean serum IgE level in uncontrolled asthma patients were 2222 IU/L, while in the control group it was 1224 IU/L. Conclusions: The high levels of serum IgE in uncontrolled asthma patients clearly indicates the definite correlation between higher IgE levels and uncontrolled asthma and demonstrates an inverse relationship with serum IgE levels and FEV1 %. Keywords: Allergy; Asthma; Atopy; Gina; Serum IgE.
Large scale scene matching for graphics and vision

Our visual experience is extraordinarily varied and complex. The diversity of the visual world makes it difficult for computer vision to understand images and for computer graphics to synthesize visual content. But for all its richness, it turns out that the space of "scenes" might not be astronomically large. With access to imagery on an Internet scale, regularities start to emerge—for most images, there exist numerous examples of semantically and structurally similar scenes. Is it possible to sample the space of scenes so densely that one can use similar scenes to "brute force" otherwise difficult image understanding and manipulation tasks? This thesis is focused on exploiting and refining large scale scene matching to short circuit the typical computer vision and graphics pipelines for image understanding and manipulation. First, in "Scene Completion" we patch up holes in images by copying content from matching scenes. We find scenes so similar that the manipulations are undetectable to naive viewers and we quantify our success rate with a perceptual study. Second, in "im2gps" we estimate geographic properties and global geolocation for photos using scene matching with a database of 6 million geo-tagged Internet images. We introduce a range of features for scene matching and use them, together with lazy SVM learning, to dramatically improve scene matching—doubling the performance of single image geolocation over our baseline method. Third, we study human photo geolocation to gain insights into the geolocation problem, our algorithms, and human scene understanding. This study shows that our algorithms significantly exceed human geolocation performance. Finally, we use our geography estimates, as well as Internet text annotations, to provide context for deeper image understanding, such as object detection.

SAFETY OF LISOCABTAGENE MARALEUCEL GIVEN WITH DURVALUMAB IN PATIENTS WITH RELAPSED/REFRACTORY AGGRESSIVE B‐CELL NON HODGKIN LYMPHOMA: FIRST RESULTS FROM THE PLATFORM STUDY

sum tests were used to compare categorical and non-categorical variables, respectively. Results: Twenty-one pts who received cyclophosphamide and fludarabine lymphodepletion followed by 2x10 CD19 CAR-T cells/kg are included in this study. Eight pts (38%) had FL and 13 (62%) had tFL. The FL pts had received a median of 4 prior therapies (range, 2-7); all had failed chemoimmunotherapy with an anti-CD20 antibody and alkylating agents; 75% had progressive disease after the last therapy; and 50% had failed prior autologous (n=3) or allogeneic (n=1) hematopoietic cell transplantation. Before lymphodepletion, 75% had stage III or IV disease; 62% had extranodal involvement; and 75% had intermediate or high FLIPI score. Seven of 8 pts with FL achieved complete remission (CR, 88%; 95% CI, 47-99) after CAR-T cells. The median time to CR was 29 days (range, 27-42), and all who achieved CR remained in remission without additional therapy (median followup, 24 months). Despite high-risk disease, durable CR was observed in most FL pts, indicating this therapy should be further investigated in larger studies. For the 13 pts with tFL, the best overall response without additional therapy was 46% (95% CI, 20-74), with all responding pts achieving CR. For tFL pts who achieved CR, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 11.2 months (95% CI, 3.3-NR; median follow-up 38 months). The median PFS for all pts with tFL was 1.4 months (95% CI, 1.2-NR) [Figure 1]. Pts with FL and tFL had comparable baseline and treatment characteristics; however, more tFL pts had elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; FL vs tFL, 13% vs 69%, P = .02) and fewer had bone marrow involvement (50% vs 15%, P = .15). No significant differences were observed between FL and tFL pts in peak CART cell counts in blood, or the incidence and severity of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) or neurotoxicity (NT). No severe (grade ≥3) CRS or NT were observed. Conclusions: CD19 CAR-T cell immunotherapy is highly effective in adults with clinically aggressive R/R FL, with durable CR in a high proportion of FL pts.
Assessment of hearing loss as a potential complication of diabetes mellitus

Introduction: High blood glucose levels are found to damage the vessels found in stria vascularis and adjacent nerves, this results into diminished ability to hear. To support this result, insufficient evidence of a significant relationship between diabetes and hearing impairment is there. Therefore, we aimed to assess hearing impairment in diabetic mellitus individuals as one of the potential complications. Material & Methods: The study involved 150 type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients. Diabetes Mellitus type 2 subjects 65-89 years of age, meeting the inclusion/exclusion criteria were included in the present study. The individuals with the diabetes had been followed up for 10 years. Results: 89 patients of total 150 patients had duration of diabetes for more than 10 years. Among them mild hearing loss was found in 37 patients. Out of total 150 patients 61 patients in whom the duration of diabetes was less than 10 years, we could not find any detectable hearing loss. Duration of Diabetes mellitus and sensorineural hearing loss at 2000Hz, 4000Hz showed statistically significant correlation (Pearson coefficient r= 0.981 and r = 0.90 respectively) at 0.03 level. Discussion & Conclusion: on the basis of results we came to conclusion that progressive bilateral high frequency sensorineural hearing loss can be considered as one of complication of type 2 DM. Periodical assessment of various organs of the body, including the hearing system, should be carried out carefully and regularly, so as to provide better life condition for the diabetic patients in the future.

Scheduling a batch processing machine with non-identical job sizes

The problem of scheduling batch processors is important in some industries and, at a more fundamental level, captures an element of complexity common to many practical scheduling problems. We describe a branch and bound procedure applicable to a batch processor model with arbitrary job processing times, job weights and job sizes. The scheduling objective is to minimize total weighted completion time. We find that the procedure returns optimal solutions to problems of up to 25 jobs in reasonable CPU time, and can be adapted for use as a heuristic for larger problems.
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF RADIO PROPAGATION MODEL FOR VEHICULAR AD HOC NETWORKS USING VANET MOBI SIM AND NS-2

VANET is an higher version of Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET). Which protocols used in the MANET are suitable to the VANET also. Many researchers are involved in VANET field, who can provide life safety and traffic management system. In continuous growth of the vehicular industry, designing and implementing VANET is a complex and wide area of research. Thus, As we all know that these studies and practices are still simulation based because it is impracticable to use real vehicles for the large scenario in different conditions to develop new algorithms and protocols for VANET. A wireless channel is unfirm and lossy so simulators for VANET require a model of these characteristics. In this paper we have highlighted the need of adequate radio propagation models for VANET with VanetMobiSim and NS2 simulators as these factors play an important role to adopt the protocol suitable for vehicle communication.
ANALYSIS OF IMMATURE PLATELET FRACTION (IPF) AND MEAN PLATELET VOLUME (MPV) IN ACUTE CORONARY SYNDROME (ACS) PATIENT

Platelets have a central role in the pathogenesis of ACS. Immature Platelet Fraction (IPF) considered as a potential marker of the platelet activation process and platelet turnover process. Immature platelets have greater prothrombotic potential and aggregate more rapidly with collagen that affects platelet hemostasis potential that may contribute to the formation of thrombus. Therefore IPF is associated with the progression of coronary heart disease. MPV values reflect platelet activation. A cross sectional study was held in the clinical pathology laboratory of Dr. WahidinSudirohusodo Hospital Makassar during September-November 2016. 67 samples underwent and declared ACS by the physician. 67 patients with ACS were involved with a distribution of 30 patients STEMI (44.8%), 30 patients NSTEMI (44.8%), and 7 patients UAP (10.4%). Subjects are mostly male (73.1%) and young adult age (82.1%). There was significant difference of IPF value especially in STEMI group with mean 3,1 (p = 0,004) and no significant difference of MPV value in ACS group.Pearson correlation test showed there was positive correlation with weak strength of IPF and MPV values in ACS patients (p = 0.02, r = 0.388). There was a significant difference between IPF scores according to GRACE score (p = 0.005). Increased IPF value in STEMI group. The IPF score can be considered as a risk stratification of ACS patients replacing GRACE score. There was a positive correlation with weak strength of IPF and MPV value in ACS patients.
Physical activity among children and adolescents in Germany. Results of the cross-sectional KiGGS Wave 2 study and trends

Self-reported data from wave 2 of the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS Wave 2, 2014-2017) provides the basis for assessing whether the levels of physical activity of children and adolescents in Germany meet the levels recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). Merely 22.4% of girls and 29.4% of boys in the 3-17 age group are physically active for at least 60 minutes per day and therefore meet the WHO recommendations. Prevalence of recommended levels of physical activity decreases continuously with age, both for girls and boys. In KiGGS Wave 2, girls in the 3-10 age group met the levels of physical activity recommended by the World Health Organization significantly less often than in KiGGS Wave 1. Low levels of physical activity were highest amongst adolescent age girls, as well as among boys and girls of low socioeconomic status. The results indicate a great potential to promote physical activity.
