SenseFace: Towards a Context-Aware Social Network Framework
Creators: name: Rahman, Md. Abdur
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: Social networks offer multimedia information consumption and sharing with millions of people around the world. The backbone of social networks stems from the advancements of different Web 2.0 technologies. Moreover, smartphones equipped with high speed Internet access have added ubiquitousness to Internet-based services. This gives rise to the fact that many people consume diversified services on a daily basis and have developed an association with different communities of interest via these services. However, a person only accesses a subset of these services at a given time either to consume certain information or to share information with a community of interest (COI), depending on the context. This poses three important research questions that need to be addressed: 1) "How do we dynamically capture user context from heterogeneous sources?" 2) "Which services are found to be interesting by a subject in a given context?" and 3) "How do we define the COI in a given context?" In this thesis, we propose detailed models and algorithms to answer the above three questions in the social network perspective. First, we propose algorithms to dynamically extract the services and social ties of an individual from the global heterogeneous social network space, for example, the Internet, which is called a personal social network (PSN). Second, we propose a framework named SenseFace, which employs a novel ubiquitous stack to extract user context from two sources: body sensor network (BSN) and the PSN. The BSN helps us in capturing different vital physical information, body activity and ambient information to infer user context while the PSN offers user context in the form of events, real-time messages, to-do lists, location and so on. Third, we present detailed models and algorithms to dynamically map a user context with a subset of relevant services and a subset of social network members. Finally, we present a prototype addressing the detailed design and implementation of the framework. The effectiveness of the framework has been validated by conducting both usability and run time performance testing.

description: Background: A diet rich in fat, in particular saturated fat (SF), may be linked to cardiovascular disease development, possibly due to a detrimental effect of fat on endothelial function (EF). Objective: We aimed to determine whether the habitual SF intake [as a ratio to total fat (the sum of saturated, polyunsaturated, and monounsaturated fat)] might influence endothelial function in young, overweight but otherwise healthy adults. Design: Sixty-nine young adults (49 males, mean age: 23 ± 1 years, mean BMI: 29.1 ± 0.8 kg/m2) were classified into three tertiles according to their habitual SF intake consumption (low SF: < 39%, medium SF 39.1-43.7%, and high SF: > 43.7% of total fat). Endothelial function was assessed using digital amplitude tonometry. Results: The three groups of individuals were comparable for total energy intake and calories from: fat, protein, and carbohydrates. There was no difference in anthropometric and hemodynamic variables among the groups. Those in the high SF group presented with impaired endothelial function [reactive hyperemia index (RHI): high SF: 1.60 ± 0.08 compared to 2.23 ± 0.16 in the medium SF and 2.12 ± 0.14 in the low SF group, P < 0.01]. Regression analysis, including gender, age, ethnicity, body mass index indicated that the ratio of SF to total fat was an independent predictor of the RHI (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The habitual consumption of a diet high in SF in relation to polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fat was strongly associated with impaired endothelial function in young overweight adults, potentially contributing to increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

description: Diabetes-associated metabolites may aid the identification of new risk variants for type 2 diabetes. Using targeted metabolomics within a subsample of the German EPIC-Potsdam study (n = 2500), we tested previously published SNPs for their association with diabetes-associated metabolites and conducted an additional exploratory analysis using data from the exome chip including replication within 2,692 individuals from the German KORA F4 study. We identified a total of 16 loci associated with diabetes-related metabolite traits, including one novel association between rs499974 (MOGAT2) and a diacyl-phosphatidylcholine ratio (PC aa C40:5/PC aa C38:5). Gene-based tests on all exome chip variants revealed associations between GFRAL and PC aa C42:1/PC aa C42:0, BIN1 and SM (OH) C22:2/SM C18:0 and TFRC and SM (OH) C22:2/SM C16:1). Selecting variants for gene-based tests based on functional annotation identified one additional association between OR51Q1 and hexoses. Among single genetic variants consistently associated with diabetes-related metabolites, two (rs174550 (FADS1), rs3204953 (REV3L)) were significantly associated with type 2 diabetes in large-scale meta-analysis for type 2 diabetes. In conclusion, we identified a novel metabolite locus in single variant analyses and four genes within gene-based tests and confirmed two previously known mGWAS loci which might be relevant for the risk of type 2 diabetes.

description: Background Grebe dysplasia, Hunter-Thompson dysplasia, and du Pan dysplasia constitute a spectrum of skeletal dysplasias inherited as an autosomal recessive trait characterized by short stature, severe acromesomelic shortening of the limbs, and normal axial skeleton. The majority of patients with these disorders have biallelic loss-of-function mutations of GDF5. In single instances, Grebe dysplasia and a Grebe dysplasia-like phenotype with genital anomalies have been shown to be caused by mutations in BMPR1B, encoding a GDF5 receptor. Methods We clinically and radiologically characterised an acromesomelic chondrodysplasia in an adult woman born to consanguineous parents. We sequenced GDF5 and BMPR1B on DNA of the proposita. We performed 3D structural analysis and luciferase reporter assays to functionally investigate the identified BMPR1B mutation. Results We extend the genotype-phenotype correlation in the acromesomelic chondrodysplasias by showing that the milder du Pan dysplasia can be caused by a hypomorphic BMPR1B mutation. We show that the homozygous c.91C>T, p.(Arg31Cys) mutation causing du Pan dysplasia leads to a significant loss of BMPR1B function, but to a lesser extent than the previously reported p.Cys53Arg mutation that results in the more severe Grebe dysplasia. Conclusions The phenotypic severity gradient of the clinically and radiologically related acromesomelic chondrodysplasia spectrum of skeletal disorders may be due to the extent of functional impairment of the ligand-receptor pair GDF5-BMPR1B.

description: Bone is a unique organ able to regenerate itself after injuries. This regeneration requires the local interplay between different biological systems such as inflammation and matrix formation. Structural reconstitution is initiated by an inflammatory response orchestrated by the host immune system. However, the individual role of T cells and B cells in regeneration and their relationship to bone tissue reconstitution remain unknown. Comparing bone and fracture healing in animals with and without mature T and B cells revealed the essential role of these immune cells in determining the tissue mineralization and thus the bone quality. Bone without mature T and B cells is stiffer when compared to wild-type bone thus lacking the elasticity that helps to absorb forces, thus preventing fractures. In-depth analysis showed dysregulations in collagen deposition and osteoblast distribution upon lack of mature T and B cells. These changes in matrix deposition have been correlated with T cells rather than B cells within this study. This work presents, for the first time, a direct link between immune cells and matrix formation during bone healing after fracture. It illustrates specifically the role of T cells in the collagen organization process and the lack thereof in the absence of T cells.

Optimal narrow-band disturbance filter for PZT-actuated head positioning control on a spinstand

Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: Narrow-band position error at midfrequencies around the open-loop crossover frequency cannot be effectively reduced by using a conventional peak filter, because the attenuation of sensitivity gains has to be traded off with the associated decrease of phase margin. This paper presents a general second-order filter that can reject narrow-band disturbances at any frequency range. The filter zero is designed to minimally degrade the closed-loop system stability and obtain a smooth sensitivity curve around the disturbance frequency. The paper presents a nonlinear optimization procedure for selecting the filter parameters so that the statistical position error is minimized. Experimental results of a piezoelectrically actuated head positioning control system on a spinstand demonstrate that the add-on filter can further reduce the midfrequency nonrepeatable runout of the position error signal by 8% and preserve the stability margin of the original feedback control system.
Localization Parameters for Two Interacting Particles in Disordered Two-Dimensional Finite Lattices
Creators: name: Chattaraj, Tirthaprasad
Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2019

description: I study spreading of two interacting hardcore bosons in disordered two-dimensional finite lattices from an initial occupation of two adjacent sites. The parameters related to the spreading of the particles provide an insight on the effect of interaction. I find that the presence of interaction makes the particles less localized than the non-interacting ones within the range of disorder strength W ≤ 4 and interaction strength V ≤ 4 . If the interaction strength is higher, then particles localize more. A transition with changes in the character of dominant correlations is found at critical disorder strengths for each chosen strength of interaction. The nature of correlations between the particles as nearest neighbours becomes dominant beyond these disorder strengths.

description: In recent years, many studies have reported substantial populations of large galaxies with low surface brightness in local galaxy clusters. Various theories that aim to explain the presence of such ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) have since been proposed. A key question that will help to distinguish between models is whether UDGs have counterparts in host haloes with lower masses, and if so, what their abundance as a function of halo mass is. We here extend our previous study of UDGs in galaxy clusters to galaxy groups. We measure the abundance of UDGs in 325 spectroscopically selected groups from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey. We make use of the overlapping imaging from the ESO Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS), from which we can identify galaxies with mean surface brightnesses within their effective radii down to ~25.5 mag arcsec-2 in the r band. We are able to measure a significant overdensity of UDGs (with sizes reff ≥ 1.5 kpc) in galaxy groups down to M200 = 1012 M⊙, a regime where approximately only one in ten groups contains a UDG that we can detect. We combine measurements of the abundance of UDGs in haloes that cover three orders of magnitude in halo mass, finding that their numbers scale quite steeply with halo mass: NUDG(R < R200) ∝ M2001.11±0.07. To better interpret this, we also measure the mass-richness relation for brighter galaxies down to Mr* + 2.5 in the same GAMA groups, and find a much shallower relation of NBright(R < R200) ∝ M2000.78±0.05. This shows that compared to bright galaxies, UDGs are relatively more abundant in massive clusters than in groups. We discuss the implications, but it is still unclear whether this difference is related to a higher destruction rate of UDGs in groups or if massive haloes have a positive effect on UDG formation.

description: Background There is an ongoing debate whether stroke patients presenting with minor or moderate symptoms benefit from thrombolysis. Up until now, stroke severity on admission is typically measured with the NIHSS, and subsequently used for treatment decision. Hypothesis Acute MRI lesion volume assessment can aid in therapy decision for iv-tPA in minor stroke. Methods We analysed 164 patients with NIHSS 0–7 from a prospective stroke MRI registry, the 1000+ study (clinicaltrials.org NCT00715533). Patients were examined in a 3 T MRI scanner and either received (n = 62) or did not receive thrombolysis (n = 102). DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) and PI (perfusion imaging) at admission were evaluated for diffusion - perfusion mismatch. Our primary outcome parameter was final lesion volume, defined by lesion volume on day 6 FLAIR images. Results The association between t-PA and FLAIR lesion volume on day 6 was significantly different for patients with smaller DWI volume compared to patients with larger DWI volume (interaction between DWI and t-PA: p = 0.021). Baseline DWI lesion volume was dichotomized at the median (0.7 ml): final lesion volume at day 6 was larger in patients with large baseline DWI volumes without t-PA treatment (median difference 3, IQR −0.4–9.3 ml). Conversely, in patients with larger baseline DWI volumes final lesion volumes were smaller after t-PA treatment (median difference 0, IQR −4.1–5 ml). However, this did not translate into a significant difference in the mRS at day 90 (p = 0.577). Conclusion Though this study is only hypothesis generating considering the number of cases, we believe that the size of DWI lesion volume may support therapy decision in patients with minor stroke.

description: The chromium (Cr) limit values are currently tightened to 25 (micro)g L-1 (EU), 5 (micro)g L-1 (Germany), and possibly 10 (micro)g L-1 Cr(VI) (California). The combined process of chemical reduction, coagulation, and biotic filtration (RCbF) efficiently removes Cr(VI) in drinking water. In this study, redox-active substances (O2, NO3-, Fe2+, MnO2) were investigated concerning their effect on the RCbF process. The experiments were performed at two-stage pilot waterworks for biological iron and manganese removal. O2 or NO3- as oxidants affected the RCbF process, neither by consumption of the reductant Fe(II) nor by re-oxidation of already formed Cr(III) in the supernatant of the filter bed. However, the oxidation of Cr(III) by O2 to Cr(VI) with MnO2 as a mediator was identified as potential risk for Cr breakthrough. Up to one third of the initial Cr(III) concentration was oxidized to Cr(VI) in the second filter bed within a contact time of only 5 min. The kinetically relevant mechanism seemed to be the formation of Cr(III)Fe(III)-hydroxides and not the reduction of Cr(VI) by Fe(II). Further, the mixing of Cr(VI) containing raw water with Fe(II) containing groundwater was determined as a chemical-free alternative for the RCbF process, depending on the resulting Fe(II) concentration after mixing. © 2023 by the authors

description: A quantitative conformational analysis was made of the anomerization equilibria of the acetylated aldopyranoses. The following non-bonded interaction energies were obtained, based on the assumption that the difference in free energy between the anomeric pairs can be taken as equal to the difference in non bonded interactions. (1) The anomeric effect, 1290 Gals./mole. (2) An acetoxymethyl group on carbon 5 enhances the anomeric effect by 220 call,/mole. (3) The skew interaction between two acetoxy groups, O/O-H/H, is 540 cals,/mole. (4) The diaxial interaction between an acetoxy group and a hydrogen atom, H:O-H:H, is 180 cals./mole. (5) The diaxial interaction between two acetoxy groups, O:O-H:H, is 2020 cals/mole. These interaction energies are all related to the interaction term H/O-H/H, that is the skew interaction between an acetoxy group and a hydrogen atom relative to the same inter action between two hydrogen atoms. The above values for the interaction energies are based on the assumption that the value of H/O-H/H is negligibly small. This type of assumption has been made by all previous workers in the field of conformational analysis and is required for a comparison of the values presently obtained with those values of similar interactions reported in the literature. The acetylated amono-sugars with an acetamido group on carbon. 2 or 3 were found to undergo anomalous anomerization reactions, These results could be due to the formation of stable oxazolinium or oxazinium ions in the anomerization media. The relative stabilities of the transition states in the anomerization of the acetylated aldopyranoses were examined in a number of different ways. It was concluded that the results would best be rationalized on the basis of a bimolecular mechanism. Conformational analyses of the transition states indicated that the activated complexes of the aldopentopyranose tetraacetates may assume a half-chair form. However, a deformed chair seemed more plausible for the transition states of the al dohexopyranose pentaacetates. The reason for this difference between the pentoses and hexoses is discussed. The reaction of the base-catalyzed anomerization of the D-glucopyranose pentaacetates was investigated. T he amino-sugar moieties from the hydrolysis of the new antibiotic kanamycin were identified as 3-D-glucosamine and 6-D-glucosamine. The configuration of 1,2;5,6-diisopropylidene-3-deoxy-3-amino-alpha-D-allofuranose was established. This proves that inversion occurs in the replacement of a tosyloxy group on secondary carbon atoms with ammonia or hydrazine and provided unequivocal identification of 3-D-glucosamine.

The adaptation of South Sudanese Christian refugees in Ottawa, Canada: Social capital, segmented assimilation and religious organization

description: This dissertation examines the adaptation of Christian refugees from Southern Sudan---primarily Dinkas and mostly educated---to living in Ottawa, Canada, not historically a gateway immigrant city. The discussion is based on sustained observation, documentation and analysis of South Sudanese refugees between 2005 and 2009, including 32 recorded interviews of adults, as well as a focus group held with young adults. It examines the findings through the lenses of social capital, with its focus on trust and reciprocity, and segmented assimilation to study the South Sudanese refugees' integration through their most important groupings: ethnic, gendered, racial and religious. The study also focuses on the cultural, gender and language dynamics of a nascent South Sudanese-focused congregation and a related East African congregation. The experiences of Anglican and Catholic congregations with Christian Sudanese refugees were also examined. The research suggests that inter-culturally competent ethnic and religious leadership is central to the ability of migrant groups in the Global North to have enough bonding social capital to mediate the adaptation process and to bridge or link to other groups. First-wave, mostly male, educated refugees often have the inter-cultural skills and agency to set up effective organizations, but a continued focus on their region of origin, facilitated by the Internet and cell phones, makes a sustained emphasis on organizational-supported living in Canada difficult. While the values of many Sudanese-born women and their children converge with those of mainstream Canadian society, men living within patriarchal value systems, supported by literal interpretations of Holy Scriptures, face challenges, and the resulting conflicts threaten family cohesion. Both the denominational and the ethnic churches, in supporting new migrants spiritually and socially, are caught between denominational parameters and goals of ethnic identity, culture and values maintenance, made more difficult by the Sudanese not having a common language. The dissertation also begins to analyze the impact for recent African Christian immigrants of a culture that emphasizes individual rights, including the effects of the increasing presence of openly gay leaders in the Canadian but not in the African Church.

title: Developing cytometry and inertial microfluidic tools to analyse and separate different cell cycle stages of Leishmania mexicana
Creators: name: Howell, Jessie
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2024

description: The leishmaniases are a group of devastating diseases which affect around 350 million people, predominantly in developing countries. These diseases are caused by infection with the protozoan parasite Leishmania, yet despite its prevalence, much of the fundamental biology of these parasites is still unknown. One such area of research is the cell cycle, a process which is essential for the replication and survival of this parasite. This process has shown promise as a target for new therapeutic drugs, however, studying the cell cycle to identify such targets is made difficult by the high heterogeneity of cultures of these cells. Cultures contain cells in all stages of the cell cycle, making it difficult to understand and identify molecules controlling this process. While tools are available for synchronising cells at a single stage in the cell cycle, they are often sub-optimal, requiring lengthy processing times or introducing artefacts into the cells and affecting their molecular composition.

This thesis therefore explores inertial microfluidics as an alternative method for cell cycle synchronisation, relying purely on the morphological and mechanical characteristics of the cells to drive separation. Protocols using imaging flow cytometry were developed to provide high-throughput morphological information about the cells. As well as providing insight into the dynamics of the cell cycle, this enabled a deeper understanding of the behaviour of non-spherical cells within inertial microfluidic devices and subsequently an enrichment of desired cell populations. Finally, novel tools for the portable and high-speed imaging of particles within inertial microfluidic devices were demonstrated. As such, this work contributes both protocols and fundamental understanding to both the fields of Leishmania and inertial microfluidic research in the hope that these will prove beneficial to future work.
Photochemical Strategies for the Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles

description: The synthesis of nanomaterials has received considerable attention in the past few decades owing to the enhanced physical and chemical properties of the particles upon approaching dimensions on the order of the Bohr radius. Several routes have been established for the synthesis of colloidal nanoparticles, where selection of reducing agent and stabilizer along with manipulation of reaction conditions dictate the outcome of the synthetic efficacy. In this work, a number of tactics have been examined in the synthesis of gold nanoparticles, which as a whole can serve as a guideline for the photochemical preparation of various aqueous metal colloids. Aqueous gold nanoparticles have been synthesized with a variety of photoinitiators such as alpha-hydroxy ketones and alpha-amino ketones through the unimolecular photorelease of free radicals with reducing character. A water-soluble benzoin operated as an excellent precursor and subsequent stabilizer of colloidal gold by its photoproducts. A second technique has operated via an intermolecular pathway for the generation of reducing ketyl radicals from hydrogen atom abstraction involving aromatic ketones with a number of hydrogen donors. Selecting ketones with low-lying triplet states and reactive hydrogen donors led to the facile formation of AuNP in micellar media. Other syntheses of gold nanoparticles have focused on the reactivity of the metal salt itself, such that photolysis of the coordination complex in the vicinity of hydrogen donors has also resulted in efficient gold nanoparticle synthesis. These approaches have been optimized by manipulation of reagent concentrations and photolysis conditions to yield stable colloids with control over particle diameter as well as morphology. With these strategies in place, the growth of nanoparticles and their surface reactivity were investigated through various methods. In particular, seed-mediated growth and kinetics were established to resolve an autocatalytic mechanism for particle formation. In addition, a novel photochemical seed-mediated growth technique was established for size selective synthesis. Gold nanoparticles were also derivatized with a series of functional groups to evaluate ligand-nanoparticle interactions, leading the way to possible applications for the materials as optical sensors. Additionally, the photo-releasing synthetic approach has been applied to the design of gold on inorganic supports for heterogeneous catalysis, where preliminary research has revealed their catalytic activity.

description: In this study, the bond characteristics between Carbon Fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates and steel with carbon nanotubes modified epoxy (CNT-epoxy) adhesive were studied. A series of experiments with double strap steel joints bonded with pure epoxy adhesive and/or CNT-epoxy adhesive were conducted. Experimental results presented in this paper include bond strength, failure modes, CFRP strain distribution and bond-slip relationship. The results show that failure mode in all specimens was a combination of steel-adhesive interface failure, cohesive failure, epoxy-CFRP interface failure and CFRP delamination. It was found that, CNT-epoxy is more efficient than pure epoxy to transfer the load from steel substrate to CFRP laminates. This paper provides an insight on the application of CNT-epoxy structural adhesive in the strengthening and rehabilitation of steel infrastructures using CFRP.

Abstract

Sea surface temperature observation in highly dynamic and spatially variable coastal zones will be advanced by future high-resolution (<100 m) thermal remote sensing missions. Meanwhile, the Landsat missions offer opportunity to prepare for these later missions that will bring finer resolution, lower noise, more thermal channels and more frequent coverage. We adapt well-established sea surface temperature processing applied to global meteorological-type sensors to Landsat observations. Cloud detection and temperature retrieval are the two principal steps, along with quality-flag derivation and uncertainty estimation. Bayesian cloud detection based on thermal and reflectance channels is expected to be effective, as the approach is by design generic and adaptable given a suitable radiative transfer model. Use of a channel set as would be used for processing (for example) an AVHRR-like sensor confirms this. Points of difference when classifying high resolution imagery for sea surface temperature retrieval are the need for finer land-sea boundary auxiliary information and the greater importance of tides in changing the land-sea boundary. For Landsat specifically, the available (regridded) thermal data “bleed” across high temperature contrasts, making assessment of the cloud edges more ambiguous. Similarly to Bayesian cloud detection, optimal estimation used for the temperature retrieval is a highly transferrable technique, reliably and rapidly giving good results when applied to new instruments. Simulation studies are a useful means of assessing optimal estimation in comparison to other temperature retrieval options. In the application to Landsat, the calibration is a significant source of error in retrieved surface temperature. 

Results for cloud detection and sea surface temperature will be presented, and discussed in terms of lessons towards future missions that will have smaller errors and enable more frequent observation, first of all TRISHNA.
