Edge-constrained marching triangles

Marching triangles is a method for producing a polygon mesh surface approximation composed of triangular facets which are approximately equilateral. This paper improves the marching triangles algorithm where the inputs are multiple range images of scenes. C/sup 1/ discontinuities (fold edges) are detected and used to constrain the final triangulation, thus increasing the accuracy of the mesh at sharp edges and corners and decreasing the number of triangles with a poor aspect ratio.
Memory function in normal aging

We evaluated memory function in a group of 161 community-dwelling, cognitively normal individuals aged 62 to 100 years recruited as part of the Mayo Clinic Alzheimer's Disease Patient Registry. We used the Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test and the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test to evaluate two aspects of memory function thought to be sensitive to the effects of aging: learning (acquisition) and delayed recall (forgetting). The results were quite consistent and demonstrated that learning or acquisition performance declines uniformly with increasing age but is not related to education. Delayed recall or forgetting, however, remained relatively stable across age when adjusted for the amount of material initially learned. These findings are relevant for assessing normal memory function relative to the early impairments found in dementia and form a baseline against which memory performance can be assessed by the clinician. In particular, suspicion regarding a disorder of brain function affecting memory processes should be raised if learning performance declines more rapidly than expected or if delayed recall is impaired to any significant extent.
Mechanically Activated Molecular Switch through Single-molecule Pulling ' Introduction

We investigate a prototypical single-molecule switch marrying force spectroscopy and molecular electronics far from the thermodynamic limit. We use molecular dynamics to simulate a conducting atomic force microscope mechanically manipulating a molecule bound to a surface between a folded state and an unfolded state while monitoring the conductance. Both the complexity and the unique phenomenology of single-molecule experiments are evident in this system. As the molecule unfolds/refolds, the average conductance reversibly changes over 3 orders of magnitude; however, throughout the simulation the transmission fluctuates considerably , illustrating the need for statistical sampling in these systems. We predict that emergent single-molecule signatures will still be evident with conductance blinking, correlated with force blinking, being observable in a region of dynamic bistability. Finally, we illustrate some of the structure-function relationships in this system, mapping the dominant interactions in the molecule for mediating charge transport throughout the pulling simulation. The emerging ability to study physical properties at the single molecule level highlights the disparity between what is observable in an ensemble of molecules and the contributions of constituent parts. 1 A key feature of single-molecule experiments is that fluctuations in observables are comparable with their average values, in contrast with macroscopic behavior where fluctuations are usually negligible. This can lead to fluctuation-induced emergent phenomena, thereby providing a signature of single-molecular characteristics. The integration of single-molecule pulling techniques 2-6 with molecular electronics 7-13 offers unique opportunities both for the development of novel mechanically controlled electronic devices and for the use of the remarkable sensitivity of the molecular transport properties to molecular conformation to characterize the state of molecules as they are mechanically elongated. In this paper we present an integrated analysis of force-extension and molecular junction transport behavior as a molecule bound to a counter electrode is pulled by an atomic force microscope (AFM) tip. The general setup of this class of experiments is schematically illustrated in Figure 1A. One end of the molecule is chemically bonded to a metallic surface, while the other end is bonded to a conducting AFM (CAFM) tip attached to a cantilever. A voltage is applied across the junction and the resulting current measured. In such a setup, the distance between the surface and the cantilever L is controlled while the force F exerted fluctuates. For a given L, the force is quantified by measuring the deflection of the cantilever from its equilibrium position, F(t) =-k[ξ(t)-L], where ξ(t) is …
Current Composition: Beyond Process vs. Product.

Richard Larson in College Composition and Communication (his final issue as editor) questioned whether or not composition yet constitutes a "discipline. " Too little of the work he has seen is the result of well-planned inquiry. In too much of that work, conclusions lacked the support of thorough investigation. He notes a "widening gap between composition researchers and teacher practitioners. " A discipline, Larson maintains, ought to be "a field with a unifying conceptual framework, distinctive pattern of inquiry, and established standards of judgement about scholarship that many practitioners hold" (394). If current composition fit this definition, then perhaps it would be a lot easier for us to design writing curricula that serve our students rather than confuse them. Perhaps it would be easier for us to train teachers in consistent research-
Molecular Epidemiology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Western Sweden

ABSTRACT The genetic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates among patients from Sweden was determined by a combination of two PCR-based techniques (spoligotyping and variable number of tandem repeats analysis). It resulted in a clustering of 23.6% of the isolates and a rate of recent transmission of 14.1%. The clustered isolates mainly belonged to the Haarlem family (23.2%), followed by the Beijing (9.8%), Latin American and Mediterranean (LAM; 8%), and East African-Indian (EAI; 6.2%) families. A comparison of the spoligotypes with those in the international spoligotyping database showed that 62.5% of the clustered isolates and 36.6% of all isolates typed were grouped into six major shared types. A comparison of the spoligotypes with those in databases for Scandinavian countries showed that 33% of the isolates belonged to an ill-defined T family, followed by the EAI (22%), Haarlem (20%), LAM (11%), Central Asian (5%), X (5%), and Beijing (4%) families. Both the highest number of cases and the proportion of clustered cases were observed in patients ages 15 to 39 years. Nearly 10% of the isolates were resistant to one or more drugs (essentially limited to isoniazid monoresistance). However, none of the strains were multidrug resistant. Data on the geographic origins of the patients showed that more than two-thirds of the clustered patients with tuberculosis were foreign-born individuals or refugees. These results are explained on the basis of both the historical links within specific countries and recently imported cases of tuberculosis into Sweden.
Improving communication efficiency with adaptable transmissions for Uncoordinated WLANs

In this paper we show that communicati on efficiency can be improved significantly with adapt able transmission through multihop routing. First, we fix the data rate to some constant value i.e. 20 packet s/sec then we vary the data rate according to the p resent network condition. By using Admission control conce pt we adapt the data rate of the network's data flows. If there is no packet loss or there network is under n ormal condition we increase the data rate to higher value i.e. sending more packets than 20pak/sec otherwise we reduce the data rate to normal value. The Advant ages are 1. The throughput is increased in the network 2 . We avoid congestion in the network. In this paper we consider four parameters (Throughput, packet drop, packet delivery ratio, energy) with the existing me thod (CACAO). We conduct extensive simulation study and comparisons using network simulator 2(NS2).
Measurement of Intellectual Capital in a Company

The article raises the issue of intellectual capital. Owing to the fact that this is a relatively new notion, among economists and practitioners of management there is no consistency with regard to the essence and the role of this capital in an organization. It therefore contributes to formation of discrepancies in perception and measurement of its effectiveness. The article presents the best known definitions, classifications and methods of evaluation of intellectual capital. The attention was focused on synthetic and analytical methods which are most often applied when measuring effectiveness of company's intellectual capital. Intellectual capital, identified with human capital, human resources, intellectual property, intellectual assets, or knowledge resources, in the age of knowledge-based economy plays a crucial role almost in each organization. Such a situation makes a credible reflection of its value and effectiveness a priority in the process of increasing the competitive advantage of a company. Clearly, it is difficult to plan, implement and control the process within which there are elements the value of which has not been fully reflected in the structure of resources of an organization. According to the conducted literature review of measurement methods of intellectual capital effectiveness, it seems that the evaluation process of values of intangible resources is necessary in a company's strategy implementation. However, it should be pointed out that in spite of undertaken attempts, still there is no a synthetic indicator which would fully reflect the value of the most precious resource of a 21st century organization, which is intellectual capital.
Combined LTP and LTD of Modulatory Inputs Controls Neuronal Processing of Primary Sensory Inputs

A hallmark of brain organization is the integration of primary and modulatory pathways by principal neurons. However, the pathway interactions that shape primary input processing remain unknown. We investigated this problem in mouse dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) where principal cells integrate primary, auditory nerve input with modulatory, parallel fiber input. Using a combined experimental and computational approach, we show that combined LTP and LTD of parallel fiber inputs to DCN principal cells and interneurons, respectively, broaden the time window within which synaptic inputs summate. Enhanced summation depolarizes the resting membrane potential and thus lowers the response threshold to auditory nerve inputs. Combined LTP and LTD, by preserving the variance of membrane potential fluctuations and the membrane time constant, fixes response gain and spike latency as threshold is lowered. Our data reveal a novel mechanism mediating adaptive and concomitant homeostatic regulation of distinct features of neuronal processing of sensory inputs.
Symmetric Multiprocessor Systems on FPGA

Advances in FPGA technologies allow designing highly complex systems using on-chip FPGA resources and intellectual property (IP) cores. Furthermore, it is possible to build multiprocessor systems using hard-core or soft-core processors, increasing the range of applications that can be implemented on an FPGA. In this paper we propose a symmetric multiprocessor architecture using the Microblace soft-core processor, and the operating system support needed for running multithreaded applications. Four systems with different shared memory configurations have been implemented on FPGA and tested with parallel applications to show its performance.
The structure and organization of lanceolate mechanosensory complexes at mouse hair follicles

In mouse hairy skin, lanceolate complexes associated with three types of hair follicles, guard, awl/auchene and zigzag, serve as mechanosensory end organs. These structures are formed by unique combinations of low-threshold mechanoreceptors (LTMRs), Aβ RA-LTMRs, Aδ-LTMRs, and C-LTMRs, and their associated terminal Schwann cells (TSCs). In this study, we investigated the organization, ultrastructure, and maintenance of longitudinal lanceolate complexes at each hair follicle subtype. We found that TSC processes at hair follicles are tiled and that individual TSCs host axonal endings of more than one LTMR subtype. Electron microscopic analyses revealed unique ultrastructural features of lanceolate complexes that are proposed to underlie mechanotransduction. Moreover, Schwann cell ablation leads to loss of LTMR terminals at hair follicles while, in contrast, TSCs remain associated with hair follicles following skin denervation in adult mice and, remarkably, become re-associated with newly formed axons, indicating a TSC-dependence of lanceolate complex maintenance and regeneration in adults.

The early cognitive profile and the interactions between health and cognition in children with Down syndrome

This thesis aimed to examine the development of cognitive, linguistic and adaptive skills in children with Down syndrome, with a particular emphasis on the interactions between health and these outcomes. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 describe a longitudinal study in which the cognitive, adaptive and linguistic skills of four- to five-year-old children with Down syndrome were traced over 15 months. Parental interviews about health enabled examination of the links between health and cognitive outcomes. Chapter 6 reports a vocabulary training study, which aimed to look at the relationship between sleep and vocabulary consolidation; a more specific health-cognition link. Chapters 3 and 4 showed that the cognitive, linguistic and adaptive profile associated with older children and adults with Down syndrome had fully emerged by the age of four, although there was a large degree of variability in the expression of the profile at the individual level. The relationships between different cognitive domains in the children with Down syndrome were largely similar to those in the typically developing group, suggesting that development is delayed rather than disordered. The only exception was the relationship between grammar and vocabulary which was atypical in the children with Down syndrome. Chapter 4 showed that parent-report measures of language can be reliably used as predictors of later objectively measured linguistic skill. In a more detailed investigation of vocabulary skills, Chapter 6 found that children with Down syndrome were able to consolidate new vocabulary over time, achieving similar levels of performance to language matched typically developing controls. To address questions about the links between health and cognition, Chapter 5 found that childhood hearing difficulties and congenital heart defects were associated with poorer language outcomes between the ages of four- and six-years-old in children with Down syndrome. However, there were no reliable relationships between cognition and either sleep or hospitalisation measures. Furthermore, Chapter 6 failed to find a relationship between sleep and vocabulary consolidation. Implications, both for practitioners and for theoretical models of developmental disability, are discussed.
Detail-preserving tone mapping for low dynamic range displays with adaptive gamma correction

Tone mapping effectively produces high dynamic range images on low dynamic range displays. Global tone mapping is simple and fast because of using the same mapping curve for every pixel without considering its neighboring ones in the radiance map. However, it often loses fine details in an image with low dynamic range displays. In this paper, we propose detail-preserving tone mapping for low dynamic range displays with adaptive gamma correction. We first perform global logarithmic tone mapping to reproduce natural tone for low dynamic range displays. Although global logarithmic mapping effectively considers human perceptual abilities, it often loses some details especially in dark regions. Thus, we perform adaptive gamma correction to achieve local contrast enhancement. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly enhances fine details of images as well as successfully preserves the overall image quality.
LOCATE: a mammalian protein subcellular localization database

LOCATE is a curated, web-accessible database that houses data describing the membrane organization and subcellular localization of mouse and human proteins. Over the past 2 years, the data in LOCATE have grown substantially. The database now contains high-quality localization data for 20% of the mouse proteome and general localization annotation for nearly 36% of the mouse proteome. The proteome annotated in LOCATE is from the RIKEN FANTOM Consortium Isoform Protein Sequence sets which contains 58 128 mouse and 64 637 human protein isoforms. Other additions include computational subcellular localization predictions, automated computational classification of experimental localization image data, prediction of protein sorting signals and third party submission of literature data. Collectively, this database provides localization proteome for individual subcellular compartments that will underpin future systematic investigations of these regions. It is available at http://locate.imb. uq.edu. au/
The mouse submandibular gland: an exocrine organ for growth factors.

Introduction It has long been recognized that the mouse submandibular gland is a uniquely rich source of both nerve growth factor (NGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). The function of the tissue with respect to these molecules has never been understood, and conflicting data have appeared. Early studies suggested that the gland might be an endocrine organ secreting the proteins into the blood. Hendry and Iverson detected higher levels ofcirculating NGF in male mice than in females, a difference which reflects the relative concentrations of NGF in the submandibular gland ( 10). Furthermore, following removal of the gland, circulating levels of the protein decreased by 85’ I (as measured by radioimmunoassay) over a 33-day period. After 60 days, however, plasma levels returned tO normal, suggesting that other tissues in the mouse produce the factor as well. In a later study, conflicting results were obtained ( I 1 ). Radioimmunoassay data indicate that blood levels of NGF in male and female mice are similar and do not decline following salivary gland removal. Furthermore, adrenergic secretagogues, which reduce gland levels of NGF, did not significantly alter circulating concentrations in normal animals. Why these results differ from those of Hendry and Iverson is not clear. Similar experiments with salivary gland EGF have been pursued. Using radioimmunoassay, Byyny et al. (5) determined that EGF concentrations increase dramatically in the blood of male mice 1 hr after treatment with phenylephrine, an alpha adrenergic agonist which reduces EGF levels in the gland. They concluded that the tissue can function as an
Organ-Specific Silencing of Duplicated Genes in a Newly Synthesized Cotton Allotetraploid

Most eukaryotes have undergone genome doubling at least once during their evolutionary history. Hybridization followed by genome doubling (allopolyploidization) is a prominent mode of speciation in plants, leading to phenotypic novelty and changes in genome structure and gene expression. Molecular events that take place immediately after polyploid formation can be studied using newly synthesized allopolyploids. Here we studied the extent of gene silencing in a newly created and genomically stable allotetraploid cotton, of genotype AAGG, using an AFLP-cDNA display screen. Over 2000 transcripts were screened and ∼5% of the duplicated genes in the allotetraploid were inferred to have been silenced or downregulated. Sequencing of 24 AFLP-cDNA fragments revealed genes with a variety of functions. Analysis by RT-PCR showed silencing or a strong expression bias toward one copy for 9 of 13 genes examined. Comparisons of expression patterns among eight organs in the allopolyploid showed that silencing and preferential expression are organ specific. Examination of silencing patterns in two other synthetic polyploids, of genotype AADD, showed that the same gene can be silenced independently in different genotypes. These results provide a detailed portrayal of gene silencing events that can occur following allopolyploidization and suggest epigenetic causal factors.
