The Virtual Director: a Correlation‐Based Online Viewing of Human Motion

Automatic camera control for scenes depicting human motion is an imperative topic in motion capture base animation, computer games, and other animation based fields. This challenging control problem is complex and combines both geometric constraints, visibility requirements, and aesthetic elements. Therefore, existing optimization‐based approaches for human action overview are often too demanding for online computation.
Using video in teacher education

This paper draws on a research study of elementary- and secondary-route preservice teachers in a two-year, after-degree teacher preparation programme. The paper includes excerpts of classroom data, taken from the author’s own university classroom, demonstrating preservice teachers’ responses to carefully selected video extracts of children learning mathematics in a high-school class also taught by the author. The paper includes commentary on some of the advantages and limitations of video as a teaching tool, develops an argument for the increased use, in both preservice teacher education and inservice teacher professional development, of videotaped episodes that focus on the learners rather than on the classroom teacher, and explores the value of having the teacher whose classroom is featured on the videos present for the discussion of the episodes. The paper explores the potential offered by video material to foster the belief that teaching is a learning activity by (i) refocusing attention on the learner rather than the teacher in the analysis of classroom practices, (ii) raising awareness of the importance of reflective practice, and (iii) providing a prompt for the imaginative rehearsal of action. Resume : Le present article se fonde sur une etude technique portant sur des stagiaires des niveaux primaire et secondaire dans un programme de preparation a l’enseignement de deux ans apres l’obtention du diplome. L’article comprend des extraits de donnees en salle de classe qui proviennent de la salle de classe de l’universite de l’auteur meme, illustrant les reponses des stagiaires a des extraits video choisis avec soins, extraits portant su des enfants apprenant les mathematiques dans une classe du secondaire dont l’enseignant est l’auteur. L’article comporte des commentaires sur certains des avantages et limites du video comme outil d’enseignement, il presente un argument pour l’augmentation accrue, a la fois pour l’education du stagiaire et le perfectionnement professionnel de l’enseignant qualifie, des episodes sur cassette video qui mettent l’accent sur les apprenants plutot que sur les enseignants en salle de classe et examine s’il est interessant que soit present au moment de la discussion sur les episodes l’enseignant dont la salle de classe figure sur le video. L’article analyse le potentiel du materiel video appuyant la croyance selon laquelle l’enseignement est une activite d’apprentissage en (i) mettant l’accent sur l’apprenant plutot que sur l’enseignant dans l’analyse des pratiques d’une salle de classe, (ii) en effectuant une sensibilisation relativement a l’importance de la pratique reflexive et (iii) en guidant la repetition novatrice de la mesure.
Interphase Cytogenetics: At the Interface of Genetics and Morphology

Cancer is a genetic disease caused by chromosomal aberrations and gene mutations, which propel normal cells into uncontrolled growth, invasiveness and metastases formation. Because chromosomal and genetic alterations impact tumour aggressiveness, therapy response, and prognosis their detection in clinical samples (e.g., fine needle aspirates and bioptic material) plays an increasingly critical role in individualized disease management. In situ hybridization with genetic markers to tumour specimen, a concept coined “Interphase Cytogenetics” [3] allows one to visualize chromosomal alterations in intact cell nuclei. Both numerical and structural chromosomal aberrations can be visualized using suitable probes or probe cocktails. The growing knowledge on tumour specific genetic and chromosomal aberrations can therefore be translated to diagnostic pathology. The identification and validation of such biomarkers will be greatly accelerated by highthroughput analysis tools such as cDNA-arrays for the analysis of differentially expressed messages [5] and tissues arrays [14] for the simultaneous screening of the expression pattern of hundreds of different tumours (see Fig. 1). The detection of chromosome and gene alterations in interphase nuclei of cytological specimens and tis-
GWAS Analyzer: integrating genotype, phenotype and public annotation data for genome-wide association study analysis

Motivation: Genome-wide association studies are beginning to elucidate how our genetic differences contribute to susceptibility and severity of disease. While computational tools have previously been developed to support various aspects of genome-wide association studies, there is currently a need for informatics solutions that facilitate the integration of data from multiple sources. Results: Here we present GWAS Analyzer, a database driven web-based tool that integrates genotype and phenotype data, association analysis results and genomic annotations from multiple public resources. GWAS Analyzer contains features for browsing these interrelated data, exploring phenotypic values by family or genotype, and filtering association results based on multiple criteria. The utility of the tool has been demonstrated by a genome-wide association study of human in vitro susceptibility to bacterial infection. GWAS Analyzer facilitated management of large sets of phenotype and genotype data, analysis of phenotypic variation and heritability, and most importantly, generation of a refined set of candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The tool revealed a SNP that was experimentally validated to be associated with increased cell death among Salmonella infected HapMap cell lines.

Theorizing Games in/and Education

Games are a nascent topic for educational research, with an increasing numberof conferences (e.g. Games, Learning, & Society), print publications (e.g. Games & Culture), and even federal grants (e.g. Quest Atlantis, RiverWorld, Whyville) recently given to the study and design of gaming technologies in/for education. However, to date, games have been chronically under-theorized - a "technology in search of a paradigm" (Gredler, 1996). This symposium proposes new conceptualizations of games in relation to education. Our collective goal is to better articulate the nature of contemporary interactive technologies so as to forward educational theory; each paper addresses crucial aspects of games and gaming culture against a backdrop of research on learning, education, and society (c.f. Shaffer, Squire, Halverson, & Gee, 2005; Steinkuehler, in press). To do so, this unique symposium combines (a) ethnographies of naturally occurring game environments, (b) game-based learning programs based on findings of how learning occurs in such environments (c) a an empirical model based on games for thought, a type of professional practice simulation games, and (d) a research project using games and game technologies for social science theorizing. Together, these papers suggest new directions for the cognitive sciences pointing toward how to design learning systems for an information age networked society.
Effect of paternal folate deficiency on placental folate content and folate receptor α expression in rats

We investigated the effect of paternal folate status on folate content and expression of the folate transporter folate receptor α (FRα) in rat placental tissues. Rats were mated after males were fed a diet containing 0 mg of folic acid/kg of diet (paternal folate-deficient, PD) or 8 mg folic acid/kg of diet (paternal folate-supplemented, PS) for 4 weeks. At 20 days of gestation, the litter size, placental weight, and fetal weight were measured, and placental folate content (n = 8/group) and expression of FRα (n = 10/group) were analyzed by microbiological assay and Western blot analysis, respectively. Although there was no difference observed in litter size or fetal weight, but significant reduction (10%) in the weight of the placenta was observed in the PD group compared to that in the PS group. In the PD group, placental folate content was significantly lower (by 35%), whereas FRα expression was higher (by 130%) compared to the PS group. Our results suggest that paternal folate status plays a critical role in regulating placental folate metabolism and transport.
Role of endoscopic intervention in biliary complications of hepatic hydatid cyst disease

Objective. Biliary complications of hepatic hydatidosis are often difficult to detect and manage. The aim of this study was to present our experience on the effectiveness of endoscopic treatment modalities in cases of biliary complications of hepatic hydatid cysts. Material and methods. Over the past 10 years, 15 patients diagnosed with hepatic hydatidosis and manifesting symptoms and signs indicative of biliary involvement were examined by means of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in our Gastroenterology Endoscopic Unit; 7 patients had already been operated on for hepatic hydatid cysts; one of them had a concomitant hydatid cyst in the lung. Diagnosis of the disease was based on a combination of ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT) and specific immunologic and/or microbiologic studies. Results. Biliary complications of hydatid cysts were detected by ERCP in 9 patients (60%). Eight (88.9%) patients displayed a communication between the hydatid cyst or its residual cavity and the biliary tree; 5 patients had daughter cysts or residual hydatid material within the biliary tree, 1 patient had a biliocutaneous fistula, 1 patient a postoperative biliary leakage and 1 patient had only an opacification of the hydatid cyst during ERCP. In one patient, ERCP showed stenoses of both of the main hepatic ducts due to their compression by the cyst. Jaundice (88.9%), fever (33.3%) and right upper quadrant abdominal pain (88.9%) were the most frequent manifestations. These complications were demonstrated by US and CT imaging in only 25% of the cases. Four patients underwent ERCP before surgery and 5 after surgery. Endoscopic management was successful in all patients, resulting in clearance of the biliary tree, closure of fistulas, stopping of biliary leakage and jaundice remission. No serious endoscopy-related complications were recorded, with the exception of a pulmonary hydatid cyst rupture during ERCP. Conclusions. This study suggests that endoscopic treatment modalities are helpful and safe methods in the treatment of biliary complications of hepatic hydatidosis before and after definitive surgical management of the hydatid cysts.
Information and Computation Quantitative Verification of Implantable Cardiac Pacemakers over Hybrid Heart Models

a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t We develop a model-based framework which supports approximate quantitative verification of implantable cardiac pacemaker models over hybrid heart models. The framework is based on hybrid input–output automata and can be instantiated with user-specified pacemaker and heart models. For the specifications, we identify two property patterns which are tailored to the verification of pacemakers: " can the pacemaker maintain a normal heart behaviour? " and " what is the energy level of the battery after t time units? ". We implement the framework in Simulink based on the discrete-time simulation semantics and endow it with a range of basic and advanced quantitative property checks. The advanced property checks include the correction of pacemaker mediated Tachycardia and how the noise on sensor leads influences the pacing level. We demonstrate the usefulness of the framework for safety assurance of pacemaker software by instantiating it with two hybrid heart models and verifying a number of correctness properties with encouraging experimental results.
A perceptual framework for contrast processing of high dynamic range images

In this work we propose a framework for image processing in a visual response space, in which contrast values directly correlate with their visibility in an image. Our framework involves a transformation of an image from luminance space to a pyramid of low-pass contrast images and then to the visual response space. After modifying response values, the transformation can be reversed to produce the resulting image. To predict the visibility of suprathreshold contrast, we derive a transducer function for the full range of contrast levels that can be found in High Dynamic Range images. We show that a complex contrast compression operation, which preserves textures of small contrast, is reduced to a linear scaling in the proposed visual response space.
The effects of ad libitum fluid ingestion on fluid balance during alpine skiing in recreational skiers

Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the influence of ad libitum water ingestion, using a back-mounted hydration system (BMHS), on fluid balance during alpine skiing. Fourteen skiers skied on two different days. On one day, seven skiers ingested water during skiing via the BMHS and the other seven skiers refrained from fluid ingestion during skiing until the midday break (NW trial). On the second day, the trials were reversed. Results indicated that when skiers used the BMHS they drank significantly more water than during the NW trials (2.0 ± 0.9 vs. 0.78 ± 0.4 litres). However, skiers drank significantly more at the midday break during the NW trials than during the BMHS trials (0.78 ± 0.4 vs. 0.4 ± 0.2 litres). Percent change in plasma volume was less during the BMHS trials than during the NW trials (−0.1 ± 5.3 vs. −4.9 ± 5.2%), urine osmolality was maintained in the BMHS trials but rose from 295 ± 80 to 818 ± 168 mOsm · kg−1 at midday during the NW trials, and body mass loss was minimized during the BMHS trials compared with the NW trials (0.4 ± 0.4 vs. 1.1 ± 0.2 kg). Skiers reported that they felt significantly better when they ingested water during the BMHS trials. In conclusion, a back-mounted hydration system allowed the skiers to maintain hydration status.
Estimating Predictors for Long‐ or Short‐Term Survivors

Summary. Suppose that the response variable in a well‐executed clinical or observational study to evaluate a treatment is the time to a certain event, and a set of baseline covariates or predictors was collected for each study patient. Furthermore, suppose that a significant number of study patients had nontrivial, long‐term adverse effects from the treatment. A commonly posed question is how to use these covariates from the study to identify future patients who would (or would not) benefit from the treatment. In this article, we present “point” and “interval” estimates for the set of covariate or predictor vectors associated with a specific patient survival status, e.g., long‐ (or short‐) term survival, in the presence of censoring. These estimates can be easily displayed on a two‐dimensional plane, even for the case with high‐dimensional covariate vectors. These simple numerical and graphical procedures provide useful information for patient management and/or the design of future studies, which are key issues in pharmacogenomics with genetic markers. The new proposal is illustrated with a data set from a cancer study for treating multiple myeloma.
Allele‐specific histone lysine methylation marks regulatory regions at imprinted mouse genes

In different eukaryotic model systems, chromatin and gene expression are modulated by post‐translational modification of histone tails. In this in vivo study, histone methylation and acetylation are investigated along the imprinted mouse genes Snrpn, Igf2r and U2af1‐rs1. These imprinted genes all have a CpG‐rich regulatory element at which methylation is present on the maternal allele, and originates from the female germ line. At these ‘differentially methylated regions’ (DMRs), histone H3 on the paternal allele has lysine‐4 methylation and is acetylated. On the maternally inherited allele, in contrast, chromatin is marked by hypermethylation on lysine‐9 of H3. Allele‐specific patterns of lysine‐4 and lysine‐9 methylation are also detected at other regions of the imprinted loci. For the DMR at the U2af1‐rs1 gene, we establish that the methyl‐CpG‐binding‐domain (MBD) proteins MeCP2, MBD1 and MBD3 are associated with the maternal allele. These data support the hypothesis that MBD protein‐associated histone deacetylase/chromatin‐remodelling complexes are recruited to the parental allele that has methylated DNA and H3‐K9 methylation, and are prevented from binding to the opposite allele by H3 lysine‐4 methylation.
Modeling and Simulation of Pressure Control for Stratospheric Platform Airship

An atmospheric model is presented for super pressure control of airships under different movement states. By analyzing the changes of each state variable during the longitudinal movements under different control strategies, both longitudinal movement model and control model for the airship are established. During the simulations of the airship's ascent, float and descent with super pressure control, different strategies are studied respectively. In order to prove the correctness of the models and the feasibilities of the super pressure control strategies under different movement state, a simulation system under VC6.0 with both manual control mode and automatic control mode is established, which is capable to describe the whole process of the airship's ascent, float and descent with super pressure control. An illustrative example is given to show that the models are effective and the super pressure control strategies are valid and feasible
Individual Characteristics Associated with Resilience in Single-Parent Families

This study identified individual characteristics as a resource to enhance the resilience of a family dealing with the loss of a parent. 25 white single-parent families who had lost a parent between 1 and 4 yr. previously were identified by four postgraduate students in the Western Cape, South Africa. Each single-parent, 19 women and 6 men (M age = 48 yr., SD = 7.65), were asked to state the personal qualities which helped the family adapt after the loss, after the Family Attachment and Changeability Index 8 and the Ego-resiliency Scale were completed. The expected positive relationship between personal resilience and family functioning could not be confirmed. However, the qualitative results indicate that optimism, perseverance, faith, expression of emotions, and self-confidence were prominent individual characteristics of resilience viewed as resources in promoting resilience in these single-parent families.
A 3-Tier RAID Storage System with RAID1, RAID5, and Compressed RAID5 for Linux

This paper presents the design and implementation of a host-based driver (a "volume manager") for a 3-tier RAID storage system, currently with 3 tiers: a small RAID1 tier and larger RAID5 and compressed RAID5 (cRAID5) tiers. Based on access patterns ("temperature"), the driver automatically migrates frequently accessed data to RAID1 while demoting not so frequently accessed data to RAID5/cRAID5. The prototype system, called "Temperature Sensitive Storage" (TSS), provides reliable persistence semantics for data migration between the tiers using ordered updates or logging. Mechanisms are separated from policies through an API so that any desired policy can be implemented in trusted user processes. We also discuss the problems faced while moving from the original implementation on the Solaris platform to Linux. Finally, we present comparison of the performance of our design with comparable systems using striping or RAID5.
