description: We consider the scenario of classical communication over a finite-dimensional quantum channel with memory using a separable-state input ensemble and local output measurements. We propose algorithms for estimating the information rate of such communication setups, along with algorithms for bounding the information rate based on so-called auxiliary channels. Some of the algorithms are extensions of their counterparts for (classical) finite-state-machine channels. Notably, we discuss suitable graphical models for doing the relevant computations. Moreover, the auxiliary channels are learned in a data-driven approach; i.e., only input/output sequences of the true channel are needed, but not the channel model of the true channel.

With the values of λg in Figure 4, we calculated Eg values which were listed in Tables 1. From Table 1, it can be seen that the value of Eg has no obvious relation to anodization voltage while anodization duration was kept at 10 min.;Eg can be calculated by the equation: Eg (eV) = 1240 / λg. However, the method to determinate λg value is not uniform in different literatures. In this paper, we used the mostly common method to determinate the value of λg , namely the intersection point of the curve tangent to the ultraviolet absorption long wave direction and the baseline. With the values of λg in Figure 5, we calculated Eg values which were listed in Tables 2. From Table 2 it can be seen that the value of Eg decrease with the increase of anodization duration while voltage was kept at 100 V. It means less energy is needed to create the charge transfer transition.

description: ABSRACT. Human gait is inherently rhythmical, thus walking to rhythmic auditory stimulation is a promising intervention to improve temporal gait asymmetry (TGA) following neurologic injury such as stroke. However, the degree of benefit may relate to an individual’s underlying rhythmic ability. We conducted an initial investigation into the relationship between rhythm abilities and responsiveness of TGA when walking to a metronome. TGA was induced in neurotypical young adults with ankle and thigh cuff weights. Participants were grouped by strong or weak rhythm ability based on beat perception and production tests. TGA was induced using a unilateral load affixed to the non-dominant leg. Participants walked under three conditions: uncued baseline, metronome set to 100% of baseline cadence, and metronome set to 90% of baseline cadence. Repeated measures analysis using generalized estimating equations was conducted to determine how rhythm ability affected TGA response in each walking condition. Most participants improved TGA when walking to a metronome at either tempo compared to baseline; however, this improvement did not differ between strong and weak rhythm ability groups. Those who scored worse on the rhythm perception test also were poorer at synchronizing their steps to the beat. The induced TGA is smaller than what is commonly experienced after stroke. A larger induced TGA may be necessary to reveal subtle differences in responsiveness to rhythmical auditory stimulation between those with strong and weak rhythm abilities.

description: Despite the well-known tradeoff between speed and accuracy, skilled people often demonstrate the ability to maintain high accuracy during fast movements. We focused on two strategies to improve accuracy, thereby increasing the reproducibility of individual parameters (certain parameters are maintained in low variability) and coordinating covariation among parameters (different parameters compensate each other's variability). The objective of this study was to determine whether coordinated covariation among release parameters is used for high accuracy by skilled baseball pitchers. A model was employed to simulate pitch location after eliminating the coordinated covariation by randomly reshuffling the release parameters, and the variability of simulated and measured pitch locations were compared. The results showed that there was no significant coordinated covariation for any of the release parameters for either the vertical or horizontal pitch location supports strategy of increasing the reproducibility of individual parameter. In addition, for the vertical pitch location, because there was coordinated covariation between the release angle and speed in slow pitching, it was suggested that, the higher speed the task requires, the more important the reproducibility of individual parameter becomes.

description: The key motivation for the low-frequency magnetic localization approach is that magnetic near-fields are well predictable by a free-space model, which should enable accurate localization. Yet, limited accuracy has been reported for practical systems and it is unclear whether the inaccuracies are caused by field distortion due to nearby conductors, unconsidered radiative propagation, or measurement noise. Hence, we investigate the practical performance limits by means of a calibrated magnetoinductive system which localizes an active single-coil agent with arbitrary orientation, using 4 mW transmit power at 500 kHz. The system uses eight single-coil anchors around a 3m x 3m area in an office room. We base the location estimation on a complex baseband model which comprises both reactive and radiative propagation. The link coefficients, which serve as input data for location estimation, are measured with a multiport network analyzer while the agent is moved with a positioner device. This establishes a reliable ground truth for calibration and evaluation. The system achieves a median position error of 3.2 cm and a 90th percentile of 8.3 cm. After investigating the model error we conjecture that field distortion due to conducting building structures is the main cause of the performance bottleneck. The results are complemented with predictions on the achievable accuracy in more suitable circumstances using the Cramér-Rao lower bound.

description: Human brain functional connectivity (FC) is often measured as the similarity of functional MRI responses across brain regions when a brain is either resting or performing a task. This paper aims to statistically analyze the dynamic nature of FC by representing the collective time-series data, over a set of brain regions, as a trajectory on the space of covariance matrices, or symmetric-positive definite matrices (SPDMs). We use a recently developed metric on the space of SPDMs for quantifying differences across FC observations, and for clustering and classification of FC trajectories. To facilitate large scale and high-dimensional data analysis, we propose a novel, metric-based dimensionality reduction technique to reduce data from large SPDMs to small SPDMs. We illustrate this comprehensive framework using data from the Human Connectome Project (HCP) database for multiple subjects and tasks, with task classification rates that match or outperform state-of-the-art techniques.

description: We introduce the α-κ-μ shadowed (α-KMS) fading distribution as a natural generalization of the versatile α-κ-μ and α-η-μ distributions. The α-KMS fading distribution unifies a wide set of fading distributions, as it includes the α-κ-μ, α- η-μ, α-μ, Weibull, κ-μ shadowed, Rician shadowed, κ-μ and η- μ distributions as special cases, together with classical models like Rice, Nakagami-m, Hoyt, Rayleigh and one-sided Gaussian. Notably, the α-KMS distribution reduces to a finite mixture of α-μ distributions when the fading parameters μ and m take positive integer values, so that performance analysis over α-KMS fading channels can be tackled by leveraging previous (existing) results in the literature for the simpler α-μ case. As application examples, important performance metrics like the outage probability and average channel capacity are analyzed.

description: In elite-level soccer, the ability to take shots with both limbs from different positions in the pitch may be key to success. This research aimed to: 1) analyze footedness of elite-football players in European leagues during shooting by computing frequency of right- and left-foot use and accuracy; and 2) investigate whether an athlete’s distance from the target (goal, penalty, and outside penalty area) and pitch zone (center, left, or right from the goal) can constrain foot selection during shooting. We analyzed 1826 games from the 2017/18 season, divided between: Spanish LaLiga (380 matches); Italian Serie A (380 matches); English Premier League (380 matches); German Bundesliga (306 matches); and French Ligue 1 (380 matches). Results revealed asymmetrical proportions of foot selection, favoring the preferred foot for right- and left-footed athletes. Frequency of preferred foot selection increased as a function of distance from the target (i.e., the farther the athlete, higher the percentage of preferred foot selection). Shots taken from the left side were more often performed with the right foot and vice-versa, for both left- and right-footed athletes. Interestingly, asymmetries were observed only in foot selection, but not in performance, as success rate did not vary between limbs in any position.

description: In brain tumor surgery, the quality and safety of the procedure can be impacted by intra-operative tissue deformation, called brain shift. Brain shift can move the surgical targets and other vital structures such as blood vessels, thus invalidating the pre-surgical plan. Intra-operative ultrasound (iUS) is a convenient and cost-effective imaging tool to track brain shift and tumor resection. Accurate image registration techniques that update pre-surgical MRI based on iUS are crucial but challenging. The MICCAI Challenge 2018 for Correction of Brain shift with Intra-Operative UltraSound (CuRIOUS2018) provided a public platform to benchmark MRI-iUS registration algorithms on newly released clinical datasets. In this work, we present the data, setup, evaluation, and results of CuRIOUS 2018, which received 6 fully automated algorithms from leading academic and industrial research groups. All algorithms were first trained with the public RESECT database, and then ranked based on test dataset of 10 additional cases with identical data curation and annotation protocols as the RESECT database. The article compares the results of all participating teams and discusses the insights gained from the challenge, as well as future work.

description: Most of the semantic segmentation approaches have been developed for single image segmentation, and hence, video sequences are currently segmented by processing each frame of the video sequence separately. The disadvantage of this is that temporal image information is not considered, which improves the performance of the segmentation approach. One possibility to include temporal information is to use recurrent neural networks. However, there are only a few approaches using recurrent networks for video segmentation so far. These approaches extend the encoder-decoder network architecture of well-known segmentation approaches and place convolutional LSTM layers between encoder and decoder. However, in this paper it is shown that this position is not optimal, and that other positions in the network exhibit better performance. Nowadays, state-of-the-art segmentation approaches rarely use the classical encoder-decoder structure, but use multi-branch architectures. These architectures are more complex, and hence, it is more difficult to place the recurrent units at a proper position. In this work, the multi-branch architectures are extended by convolutional LSTM layers at different positions and evaluated on two different datasets in order to find the best one. It turned out that the proposed approach outperforms the pure CNN-based approach for up to 1.6 percent.

description: We present a glasses type wearable device to detect emotions from a human face in an unobtrusive manner. The device is designed to gather multi channel responses from the user face naturally and continuously while the user is wearing it. The multi channel responses include physiological responses of the facial muscles and organs based on electrodermal activity (EDA) and photoplethysmogram. We conducted experiments to determine the optimal positions of EDA sensors on the wearable device because EDA signal quality is very sensitive to the sensing position. In addition to the physiological data, the device can capture the image region representing local facial expressions around the left eye via a built in camera. In this study, we developed and validated an algorithm to recognize emotions using multi channel responses obtained from the device. The results show that the emotion recognition algorithm using only local facial expressions has an accuracy of 78 percent at classifying emotions. Using multi channel data, this accuracy was increased by 10.1 percent. This unobtrusive wearable system with facial multi channel responses is very useful for monitoring a user emotions in daily life, which has a huge potential for use in the healthcare industry.

description: Image post-processing is used in clinical-grade ultrasound scanners to improve image quality (e.g., reduce speckle noise and enhance contrast). These post-processing techniques vary across manufacturers and are generally kept proprietary, which presents a challenge for researchers looking to match current clinical-grade workflows. We introduce a deep learning framework, MimickNet, that transforms raw conventional delay-and-summed (DAS) beams into the approximate post-processed images found on clinical-grade scanners. Training MimickNet only requires post-processed image samples from a scanner of interest without the need for explicit pairing to raw DAS data. This flexibility allows it to hypothetically approximate any manufacturer's post-processing without access to the pre-processed data. MimickNet generates images with an average similarity index measurement (SSIM) of 0.930$\pm$0.0892 on a 300 cineloop test set, and it generalizes to cardiac cineloops outside of our train-test distribution achieving an SSIM of 0.967$\pm$0.002. We also explore the theoretical SSIM achievable by evaluating MimickNet performance when trained under gray-box constraints (i.e., when both pre-processed and post-processed images are available). To our knowledge, this is the first work to establish deep learning models that closely approximate current clinical-grade ultrasound post-processing under realistic black-box constraints where before and after post-processing data is unavailable. MimickNet serves as a clinical post-processing baseline for future works in ultrasound image formation to compare against. To this end, we have made the MimickNet software open source.

'Shipwreck' Scene Investigation and Bones: Subaquatic diagenetic taphonomy and spatial analysis of the faunal remains from the Ma'agan Mikhael B shipwreck, Israel

description: Deposition in the marine environment subjects osteological materials to geochemical and taphic processes that do not occur in terrestrial archaeological sites. The effect of subaquatic diagenesis on bones and teeth challenges traditional interpretations of zooarchaeological remains and needs more scholarship. This is likely due in part to the paucity of animal remains recovered from inundated sites, such as shipwrecks. The Ma‘agan Mikhael B shipwreck (mid-7th–mid-8th centuries CE), located on the Carmel coast of Israel, yielded an extraordinarily preserved assemblage of diverse animal bones and teeth. The eastern Mediterranean sandy substrata into which she sank provided an ideal depositional environment for the preservation of organic remains. Adaptation of conventional diagenetic taphonomic assessments utilized in terrestrial zooarchaeological studies described the state of preservation of the faunal assemblage in a more meaningful way for the marine context, as well as spoke to the integrity of the shipwreck’s faunal assemblage (in situ-ness). Additionally, a GIS spatial analysis of the distribution of animal remains throughout the shipwreck shed light on site formation processes, as well as inferred some aspects of nonextant antique Mediterranean naval architecture. The subaquatic diagenetic taphonomy analysis of the Ma‘agan Mikhael B’s faunal assemblage observed and recorded multiple aspects of surface modifications present on archaeological bones, including abrasion stage, corrosion levels, and coloration. A novel ordinal scale of observed abrasion stages (c.f. weathering stages) was created during this research, as this was not available in the existing literature. Presence/absence and degree of corrosion was recorded, and coloration was standardized using the Munsell color chart. The location of each faunal remain (NSP=241, excluding fish bones) recovered from the shipwreck site was recorded in a GIS map. Identifying the agent or process responsible for each surface modification and observing the spatial patterns of these phenomena enabled a more nuanced interpretation of the assemblage, akin to the field of forensics where each trace leads the crime scene investigators closer to recreating the ‘scene of the accident’. The examination of taphonomic factors provided further evidence of the ship’s original architecture, informed upon the integrity of the shipwreck site, and elucidated aspects of eastern Mediterranean shipwreck site formation processes. Future in-kind analyses of subaquatic diagenetic taphonomy and spatial analysis will enable inter-site comparison between faunal assemblages from shipwrecks and other types of submerged sites.

Greedy Algorithms for Hybrid Compressed Sensing

description: Compressed sensing (CS) is a technique which uses fewer measurements than dictated by the Nyquist sampling theorem. The traditional CS with linear measurements achieves efficient recovery performances, but it suffers from the large bit consumption due to the huge storage occupied by those measurements. Then, the one-bit CS with binary measurements is proposed and saves the bit budget, but it is infeasible when the energy information of signals is not available as a prior knowledge. Subsequently, the hybrid CS which combines the traditional CS and one-bit CS appears, striking a balance between the pros and cons of both types of CS. Considering the fact that the one-bit CS is optimal for the direction estimation of signals under noise with a fixed bit budget and that the traditional CS is able to provide residue information and estimated signals, we focus on the design of greedy algorithms, which consist of the main steps of support detection and recovered signal update, for the hybrid CS in this paper. We first propose a theorem on the random uniform tessellations for sparse signals to further investigate the properties of one-bit CS. Afterwards, we propose two greedy algorithms for the hybrid CS, with the one-bit CS responsible for support detection and traditional CS offering updated residues and signal estimates. For each of the proposed algorithms, we provide the corresponding theorem with proof to analyze their capabilities theoretically. Simulation results have demonstrated the efficacy of the proposed greedy algorithms under a limited bit budget in noisy environments.

description: The discrete isoperimetric inequality in Euclidean geometry states that among all $n$-gons having a fixed perimeter $p$, the one with the largest area is the regular $n$-gon. The statement is true in spherical geometry and hyperbolic geometry as well.
 In this paper, we generalize the discrete isoperimetric inequality to disconnected regions, i.e. we allow the area to be split between regions. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the result (in Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic geometry) to hold for multiple $n$-gons whose areas add up.

description: In this study, to mimic the hydrophilic character of cotton, the industrially prominent polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers were enriched by polar OH-groups via the graft copolymerization technique. For this purpose, the grafting of the 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) was ensured in the high graft yields (∼95%). The effects of polymerization conditions such as the solvent selection, initiator type and concentration, monomer concentration, polymerization temperature, and time were investigated for the highest graft yield, where the fiber's dimensional stability is preserved. The changes in the structural, thermal, and morphological properties of PAN-g-HEMA fibers were executed by ATR-FTIR, 1H-NMR, TGA, and SEM techniques. Depending on the modified fibers' grafting yields, the changes in the tensile strength, elongation at break, moisture, and water retention properties were investigated. It was obtained that the moisture absorption of PAN fiber (2%) reached 15.7% after grafting (95% graft yield). The dyeability of the modified fibers was studied with a direct dye (Direct Black 38), which is conventionally employed for cellulose dyeing, by monitoring with the L*a*b* color measurements and K/S color strength. 0.049 g of dye was adsorbed by 1 g of PAN-g-HEMA fiber containing 68% of HEMA at pH 11 for 120 min.
