Construction inverted index for dynamic collections visualization in thematic virtual museums system

Thematic virtual museum system main goal is providing more relevant information based on user characteristic, behavior and desire. Thematic exhibition as main unique feature very considering on users' whole activities. Barry and Maria define creation of new knowledge, transformative and self-directed experiences, engagement with the full diversity of visitors, and transparency as the source of a viewpoint of the exhibition as museum specific evaluation criteria. Museum exhibition is not book on the wall rather than leading visitors to new attitudes, values and ideas even in very different cultural backgrounds or religious beliefs. The system with interactive information in the thematic exhibition which has been processing and delivering to the user will be leading to the better understanding by traveling in similar fields. In order to accomplish those tasks, this research have been performed and constructed thematic virtual museums inverted index to gain fastest retrieval document collections. The system is using special architecture and multi system indexing in thematic virtual museum inverted index. This index can manage collection in many forms of data structured, semi structured or unstructured which have processed by data access layer engine. In this paper showed a design and modification of the inverted index experimental result for thematic virtual museums system and a sample of exhibition visualization to get more precision by embedding method.
Block-fading broadcast channel with hybrid CSIT and CSIR

The broadcast channel under delayed, mixed, hybrid, or no CSIT Is a subject of much Interest but has been studied only under i.i. d. fading and perfect CSIR for all users. Models that go beyond i.i. d. fading and perfect CSIR are of practical Importance since users may experience unequal fading block-length (coherence time) and unequal CSIR availability due to different mobility and scattering environment. This paper studies a two-user MISO broadcast channel with hybrid CSIR, where one static user (with slower fading) has CSIR and one dynamic user (with faster fading) does not have free CSIR. Under this hybrid CSIR condition, the paper studies the degrees of freedom under various CSIT scenarios: no, delayed, and hybrid CSIT. For no CSIT, we provide an outer bound that meets the achievable degrees of freedom region when the coherence times of the users are the same. For both delayed and hybrid CSIT, the achievable regions partially meet their corresponding outer bounds, and furthermore the corresponding gaps decrease with the dynamic user coherence time.
Improving Surface Plasmon Detection in Gold Nanostructures Using a Multi‐Polarization Spectral Integration Method

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing is a key technique for real-time and label-free detection of molecular interactions on a gold surface. [ 1–3 ] The attenuated total internal refl ection (ATR), known as the Kretschmann confi guration, is most commonly utilized to excite the SPR on a gold surface. In addition to the prism coupling method, metallic nanostructures offer a simpler way for SPR excitation. [ 4–7 ] Recently, periodic gold nanohole arrays or nanoslit arrays have been utilized for biosensing applications. [ 8–19 ] By measuring changes in the resonant angle, wavelength or intensity, the amounts of surface binding events are quantitatively estimated. The detection limit of the SPR sensor is usually characterized by minimum refractive index unit (RIU). It is defi ned by δ /S , where S is the RIU sensitivity and δ , the resolution of the measurement system. Increasing S or lowering δ can enhance the SPR detection. The common detection limit of a nanostructure-based sensor is on the order of 10 − 5 RIU for 0.1 nm wavelength resolution, [ 9 , 12 ] 10 − 6 RIU for 10 − 4 degree angle resolution, [ 9 ] or 10 − 5 RIU for 0.2% intensity resolution.

ROSIGLITAZONE, A PEROXISOME PROLIFERATOR‐ACTIVATED RECEPTOR‐γ LIGAND, REDUCES INFARCTION VOLUME AND NEUROLOGICAL DEFICITS IN AN EMBOLIC MODEL OF STROKE

1 Stroke is accompanied by a robust inflammatory response, glutamate‐mediated excitotoxicity, release of reactive oxygen species and apoptosis. Thiazolidinediones, which target the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPAR)‐g, have been reported recently to exhibit potent anti‐inflammatory and anti‐oxidant actions and inhibit both neural excitotoxicity and apoptosis. 2 The present study was conducted to determine whether rosiglitazone, a potent thiazolidinedione for PPAR‐g, would show efficacy against the cerebral infarction and neurological dysfunctions induced by embolic middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion in the rat. 3 Focal ischaemic injury was induced by embolizing a preformed clot into the MCA. Rosiglitazone was dissolved in dimethyl sulphoxide and injected i.p. 1 h before MCA occlusion at doses of 0.33, 0.1, 0.3 or 1 mg/kg. In addition, 1 mg/kg rosiglitazone was used immediately or 4 h after embolization. Forty‐eight hours after MCA occlusion, brains were removed, sectioned and stained with a 2% solution of 2,3,5‐triphenyltetrazolum chloride and analysed using a commercial image‐processing software program. 4 When rosiglitazone was administered 1 h before embolization, it significantly reduced infarct volume by 48.2, 68.4% and 70.3% at doses of 0.1, 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, respectively (P < 0.001). Administration of rosiglitazone (1 mg/kg) immediately or 4 h after stroke also reduced infarct volume by 67 and 50.8%, respectively (P < 0.001). Rosiglitazone‐treated rats also demonstrated improved neurological functions. However, there were no statistically significant differences between control and treated groups in terms of brain oedema at 48 h after ischaemic injury. 5 The findings of the present study may support the idea of a potential benefit of thiazolidinediones in the management of ischaemic stroke.
Maximal Output Admissible Set and Admissible Perturbations Set For Nonlinear Discrete Systems

Consider the discrete nonlinear system x(i +1 ) =f (x(i)) ,i ≥ 0 and the corresponding output signal y(i )= Cx(i) ,i ≥ 0. Given a constraint set Ω ⊂ IR p , a initial state x(0) is said to be output admissible if the resulting output function satisfies the condition y(i) ∈ Ω, ∀i ≥ 0. The set of all possible such initial conditions is the output maximal admissible set X∞. Contrary to the linear case, the representation of the maximal output admissible set for nonlinear systems is certainly more complex and not available. However, we restrain in this paper to the theoretical and algorithmic characterization of the set X M ∞ = X∞ ∩ B(0,M) where B(0,M )= {x ∈ IR n /� x �≤ M } with M is as large as we desire it. The maximal output admissible set for discrete delayed systems is also considered. As direct application of obtained results, we propose a technique that allows to determine, among all the perturbations susceptible to infect the initial state of a discrete nonlinear system, those which are relatively tolerable.
A broadband multilevel fast multipole algorithm with incomplete-leaf tree structures for multiscale electromagnetic problems

An efficient, broadband, and accurate multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) is proposed to solve a wide range of multiscale electromagnetic problems with orders of magnitude differences in the mesh sizes. Given a maximum RWG population threshold, only overcrowded boxes are recursively bisected into smaller ones, which leads to novel incomplete-leaf tree structures. Simulations reveal that, for surface discretizations possessing highly overmeshed local regions, the proposed method presents a more efficient and/or accurate results than the conventional MLFMA. The key feature of such a population-based clustering scenario is that the error is controllable, and hence, regardless of the number of levels, the efficiency can be optimized based on the population threshold. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the superior efficiency and accuracy of the proposed algorithm in comparison to the conventional MLFMA.
Splay states in globally coupled Josephson arrays: Analytical prediction of Floquet multipliers.

In recent numerical experiments on series arrays of overdamped Josephson junctions, Nichols and Wiesenfeld [Phys. Rev. A 45, 8430 (1992)] discovered that the periodic states known as splay states are neutrally stable in all but four directions in phase space. We present a theory that accounts for this enormous degree of neutral stability. The theory also predicts the four non-neutral Floquet multipliers to within 0.1% of their numerically computed values. The analytical approach used here may be applicable to other globally coupled systems of oscillators, such as rnultimode lasers, electronic oscillator circuits, and solid-state laser arrays.
Detection of abnormal candidate regions on temporal subtraction images based on DCNN

Cancer is a leading cause of death both in Japan and worldwide. Detection of cancer region in CT images is the most important task to early detection. Recently, visual screening based on CT images become useful tools for cancer detection. However, due to the large number of images and the complexity of the image processing algorithms, image processing technique is still required a high screening quality. To overcome this problem, some computer aided diagnosis (CAD) algorithms are proposed. In this paper, we have designed and developed a framework combining machine learning based on deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) and temporal subtraction techniques based on non-rigid image registration algorithm. Our main classification method can be built into three main steps; i) pre-processing for image segmentation, ii) image matching for registration, and iii) classification of abnormal regions based on machine learning algorithms. We performed our proposed technique to 25 thoracic MDCT sets and obtained true positive rates of 92.31 [%], false positive rates of 6.32 [/case] were obtained.
Projections of the cochlear nuclei and nucleus laminaris to the inferior colliculus of the barn owl

The barn owl determines the directions from which sounds emanate by computing the interaural differences in the timing and intensity of sounds. These cues for sound localization are processed in independent channels originating at nucleus magnocellularis (NM) and nucleus angularis (NA), the cochlear nuclei. The cells of NM are specialized for encoding the phase of sounds in the ipsilateral ear. The cells of NA are specialized for encoding the intensity of sounds in the ipsilateral ear.
Ecological momentary interventions for depression and anxiety

Ecological momentary interventions (EMIs) are becoming more popular and more powerful resources for the treatment and prevention of depression and anxiety due to advances in technological capacity and analytic sophistication. Previous work has demonstrated that EMIs can be effective at reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety as well as related outcomes of stress and at increasing positive psychological functioning. In this review, we highlight the differences between EMIs and other forms of treatment due to the nature of EMIs to be deeply integrated into the fabric of people's day‐to‐day lives. EMIs require unique considerations in their design, deployment, and evaluation. Furthermore, given that EMIs have been advanced by changes in technologies and that the use of behavioral intervention technologies for mental health has been increasing, we discuss how technologies and analytics might usher in a new era of EMIs. Future EMIs might reduce user burden and increase intervention personalization and sophistication by leveraging digital sensors and advances in natural language processing and machine learning. Thus, although current EMIs are effective, the EMIs of the future might be more engaging, responsive, and adaptable to different people and different contexts.
Overview of Pharmacogenetics

Pharmacogenetics is the study of relationships between genetic variation and inter‐individual differences with respect to drug response. As the field has matured over the past 15 years, a remarkable diversity of pathways, variation types, and mechanisms have been found to be relevant pharmacogenetic factors. Today, pharmacogenetics is becoming more important in pharmacology for target validation, lead optimization, and understanding of idiosyncratic toxicity. This unit provides an overview of the history of pharmacogenetics and current research applications in drug discovery, as well as a discussion of research quality issues relevant to human subjects research in the pharmacogenetics laboratory.
Single-Photon Quantum Contextuality on a Chip

In classical physics, properties of objects exist independently of the context, i.e., whether and how measurements are performed. Quantum physics showed this assumption to be wrong, and that Nature is indeed “contextual”. Contextuality has been observed in the simplest physical systems, such as single particles, and plays fundamental roles in quantum computation advantage. Here, we demonstrate for the first time quantum contextuality in an integrated photonic chip. The chip implements different combinations of measurements on a single photon delocalized on four distinct spatial modes, showing violations of a Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH)-like noncontextuality inequality. This paves the way to compact and portable devices for contextuality-based quantum-powered protocols.
Relationship between plasma concentrations of N‐terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide and the characteristics and outcome of patients with a clinical diagnosis of diastolic heart failure: a report from the PEP‐CHF study

The aim of this study was to explore the relationships between plasma concentrations of N‐terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) and characteristics and prognosis of patients with heart failure and preserved (HFPEF) left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). No substantial trial has shown that treatment alters prognosis in patients with HFPEF due, in part, to much lower than anticipated event rates. The lack of a simple, objective test to identify patients with HFPEF at increased risk of cardiovascular events would be valuable.
Multiple Measures of Anesthesia Workload During Teaching and Nonteaching Cases

In this study, we sought to examine several measures of anesthesia provider workload during different phases of anesthesia care and during teaching and nonteaching cases. Clinical work was assessed in real-time during 24 general anesthetics performed by consenting anesthesia providers. Workload was measured using physiological (provider heart rate), psychological (self-assessment and observer rating), and procedural (response latency to an alarm light and workload density) techniques. Clinicians’ heart rates, observer and self-reported workload scores, and nonteaching workload density were consistently increased during anesthetic induction and emergence compared with maintenance. In nonteaching cases, workload density correlated with heartrate and with psychological workload. Workload density during teaching cases did not decrease during the induction and was significantly greater than during non-teaching cases. Alarm-light response latency (a measure of clinical vigilance) was significantly prolonged during the teaching compared with nonteaching cases. These results suggest that intraoperative teaching increases the workload of the clinician instructor and may reduce vigilance during anesthesia care. Additionally, multiple workload measures may provide a more comprehensive profile of the work demands of clinical cases.
Seasonality of group size, feeding, and breeding in wild red‐shanked douc langurs (Lao PDR)

In Asian colobines, small one‐male groups (OMG) seem to predominate alongside all‐male groups (AMG), while larger multimale groups (MMG) are rare, but are reported for Hanuman langurs and red‐shanked douc langurs. Recently, however, it has been speculated that the genus Pygathrix could have multilevel societies based on (1) a theoretical extension of the multilevel societies found in Rhinopithecus to all odd‐nosed colobines and (2) first data for black‐shanked douc langurs. This assumes bands composed of small OMG with a skewed adult sex ratio. Band size may vary with seasonal food availability resulting in smaller bands when feeding competition is increased. To investigate the social organization of red‐shanked douc langurs and potential seasonal influences, we observed 2 unhabituated groups at Hin Namno National Protected Area, Lao PDR from March 2007 to August 2008 for 803 hr. We recorded births and performed group counts and scan sampling of feeding behavior. Most births (79% of N = 15) occurred from June–September, indicating a 4‐month peak conception season from November to February. Group size averaged 24.5 individuals (range 17–45) with 2.45 adult males (range 1–4). Although the smaller group remained at a stable size (about 18 individuals), the larger group reduced from about 45 to 25 individuals during the 7‐months long lean season, when less than 50% of the feeding time was spent on fruits. This suggests feeding competition as a potential cause of seasonal variation in group size. With 1.9 females per male the skew in adult sex ratio was much lower compared with Rhinopithecus, indicating MMG rather than multilevel societies. However, data on the spacing and interaction patterns between recognized individuals need to be collected and analyzed before the social organization can be determined. Detailed ecological data are furthermore required to investigate the basis for the seasonal changes in group size found. Am. J. Primatol. 73:1134–1144, 2011. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Long-term use of cochlear implant systems in paediatric recipients and factors contributing to non-use

Abstract The aim of the present paper was to assess children's long-term use of their cochlear implant systems and to explore factors influencing the extent of daily use. The parents of 138 deaf children who had been implanted for seven years completed an annual questionnaire about the extent of their child's use of their implant system. The results revealed that seven years after implantation 115 children (83%) were wearing their implants full-time, 16 (12%) most of the time, three (2%) some of the time and four (3%) were non-users. The children were categorised into those who were full-time users (group F) and those who were not full-time users (group N). The mean age at implantation in group F was 4.4 years with a median of four whereas in group N the mean age at implantation was 5.8 years with a median of 5.5 years. This difference was highly statistically significant. There were no children who were total non-users implanted below the age of five. The predominant mode of communication was oral in group F and signed communication in group N and the difference was also statistically significant. In group F, 90 (78%) were in mainstream education, either mainstream school or a resource base in a mainstream school, whereas the respective percentage in group N was 57 per cent and this difference was statistically significant. Further investigation of those in group N shows a fluctuating pattern of use over the years prior to becoming complete non-users seven years after implantation. The four children who were complete non-users at seven years after implantation were all implanted at five and had other difficulties with all having complex family issues, three having significant other learning difficulties and one experiencing pain on stimulation. None had experienced device failure. In conclusion, this study of 138 children showed very high levels of full-time use seven years after implantation. Factors linked with full-time use seven years after implantation were early implantation, oral mode of communication and mainstream educational placement. Additional difficulties were not significant. Psycho-social issues such as family and educational support appeared to be important in facilitating continued use of the implant system. Non-use may occur after several years of use and in this group non-use followed a fluctuating pattern of use over time. The regular monitoring of device use may enable cochlear implant teams to be alert to potential non-users and to provide appropriate and timely support to the child, family and educational service.

Joint energy-efficient resource allocation and interference alignment for HetNets

In the area of interference management, many works have used interference alignment (IA) to tackle interference in heterogeneous networks (HetNets). However, few work has been done from the energy-efficiency (EE) aspect. In this study, the authors address the joint EE resource allocation and IA problem for HetNets where several femtocells underlay within the coverage of a macrocell, and take into account the service requirements of macro cell user (MU). A mixed integer and non-convex optimisation framework is adopted to investigate the EE maximisation problem which is a multi-dimensional resource management problem. To solve the problem, the authors propose a user scheduling scheme to determine the transmission sequence as well as encoding and decoding matrices for each user. Then an iterative power control algorithm is proposed to optimise the EE of the networks. Simulation results validate the convergence and performance of proposed scheme.
Native Americans, Archaeologists, and the Mounds (review)

“Mythic Visions: Yarn Paintings of a Huichol Shaman” held at the University of Pennsylvania Museum (November 3, 2003 to April 30, 2004). Though the artist is not central, his yarn paintings provide a beautiful, inspiring, and provocative background to Furst’s theories of development of Huichol sacred arts. Without the instigation of early Huichol art supporters like museum specialists Alfonso Soto Soria, Padre Ernesto Loera Ochóa, and the book’s author, Peter Furst, it’s unclear whether Huichol yarn paintings would have developed in the ways that they have. That the production of commercial Huichol yarn paintings are portrayed as an integral part of ordinary Huichol sacred-life, is a testament to both cultural continuity and the dynamic nature of the material practice of Indigenous traditions and culture! Like The Art of Norval Morriseau, Peter Furst’s Visions of a Huichol Shaman provides a visual documentation of the rich inner life of an Indigenous person who is directly connected to the spiritual knowledge, stories, and traditions of his people. Both texts can be used by future Ojibway and Huichol peoples to connect with past generations, and by anthropology or art buffs around the world to get a glimpse of encapsulated worldviews and experiences. The potential for speculation, theory, and practice generated by these books, especially in comparison, should fuel the classrooms of Indigenous peoples, anthropologists, and fine artists for years to come!
Agency in Mid-air Interfaces

Touchless interfaces allow users to view, control and manipulate digital content without physically touching an interface. They are being explored in a wide range of application scenarios from medical surgery to car dashboard controllers. One aspect of touchless interaction that has not been explored to date is the Sense of Agency (SoA). The SoA refers to the subjective experience of voluntary control over actions in the external world. In this paper, we investigated the SoA in touchless systems using the intentional binding paradigm. We first compare touchless systems with physical interactions and then augmented different types of haptic feedback to explore how different outcome modalities influence intentional binding. From our experiments, we demonstrated that an intentional binding effect is observed in both physical and touchless interactions with no statistical difference. Additionally, we found that haptic and auditory feedback help to increase SoA compared with visual feedback in touchless interfaces. We discuss these findings and identify design opportunities that take agency into consideration.
