Computing Fibers: A Novel Fiber for Intelligent Fabrics? (2003)

Abstract This communication describes a possible path for transition from a wearable computer to a fiber computer in which digital processing power is integrated directly into textiles via circuits on individual fibers. Three different classes of computing fiber substrate (active, passive, and intermediate) are discussed and some technologies for their manufacture are reviewed. It is shown here that with two of these techniques it is possible to develop new substrates for the semiconductor industry. Using an silicon‐on‐insulator (SOI) process, polycrystalline silicon fibers with a length of 42 mm have been successfully produced at NMRC in Ireland. These fibers are 35 μm wide and 1 μm thick. Silicon carbide (SiC) and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) endless fibers (subsequently cut in to 20 cm lengths) have also been produced by extrusion. After sintering, this method yielded polycrystalline SiC fibers and pure amorphous SiO 2 glass fibers. For many future applications, fiber computing appears to be a possible key to success. The computing power offered by such fibers may be combined with additional in‐ and output functions by weaving fiber‐based sensors and piezoelectric materials into textiles.
A simple remote-controlled power switch for internalized bioelectronic instrumentation (1989)

This communication presents a remote-controlled power switch for extending the battery life of biomedical instruments implanted into animals or humans. The switching action is controlled externally to the implant by an inductive link between two coils, one contained in the implant and one external to the implant. The external coil sends an electromagnetic pulse to the implant, triggering a CMOS "D" flip-flop connected as a toggle switch--its state is toggled on or off upon receiving the external pulse. The standby current drain of the switch is about 4 nA. The remote triggering range is approximately 20-50 cm. Testing of the switch, surgically implanted as part of a telemetry transmitter, is also discussed.
Proteomic identification and validation of novel interactions of the putative tumor suppressor PRELP with membrane proteins including IGFI-R and p75NTR (2021)

Proline and arginine-rich end leucine-rich repeat protein (PRELP) is a member of the small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycans (SLRPs) family. Levels of PRELP mRNA are downregulated in many types of cancer, and PRELP has been reported to have suppressive effects on tumor cell growth, although the molecular mechanism has yet to be fully elucidated. Given that other SLRPs regulate signaling pathways through interactions with various membrane proteins, we reasoned that PRELP likely interacts with membrane proteins to maintain cellular homeostasis. To identify membrane proteins that interact with PRELP, we carried out coimmunoprecipitation coupled with mass spectrometry (CoIP-MS). We prepared membrane fractions from Expi293 cells transfected to overexpress FLAG-tagged PRELP or control cells and analyzed samples precipitated with anti-FLAG antibody by mass spectrometry. Comparison of membrane proteins in each sample identified several that seem to interact with PRELP; among them, we noted two growth factor receptors, insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGFI-R) and low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor (p75NTR), interactions with which might help to explain PRELP’s links to cancer. We demonstrated that PRELP directly binds to extracellular domains of these two growth factor receptors with low micromolar affinities by surface plasmon resonance analysis using recombinant proteins. Furthermore, cell-based analysis using recombinant PRELP protein showed that PRELP suppressed cell growth and affected cell morphology of A549 lung carcinoma cells, also at micromolar concentration. These results suggest that PRELP regulates cellular functions through interactions with IGFI-R and p75NTR and provide a broader set of candidate partners for further exploration.
Labile Diazo Chemistry for Efficient Silencing of Metallic Carbon Nanotubes (2011)

Silence, please! Single-wall carbon nanotubes (NTs) are produced as a mixture of metals and semiconductors. Metallic NTs can be selectively derivatized by diazonium, but the selectivity does not allow preservation of semiconductor NTs; therefore, diazonium was replaced by diazoesters. The diazoester-coupled NTs could be used without any purification for the fabrication of NT-field-effect transistors (see graphic).

Studies of domestic biochemists and physiologists on the antibacterial properties of the lysoamidasa complex, targeted at creating state-of-the-art preparations of a wider action range than that of classical antibiotics, are considered in the article.
Update of Mouse Microsatellite Database of Japan (MMDBJ). (2004)

We updated a database of microsatellite marker polymorphisms found in inbred strains of the mouse, most of which were derived from the wild stocks of four Mus musculus subspecies, M. m. domesticus, M. m. musculus, M. m.castaneus and M. m. molossinus. The major aim of constructing this database was to establish the genetic status of these inbred strains as resources for linkage analysis and positional cloning. The inbred strains incorporated in our database are A/J, C57BL/6J, CBA/J, DBA/2J, SM/J, SWR/J, 129Sv/J, MSM/Ms, JF1/Ms, CAST/Ei, NC/Nga, BLG2/Ms, NJL/Ms, PGN2/Ms, SK/CamEi and SWN/Ms, which have not or have only been poorly incorporated in the Whitehead Institute/MIT (WI/MIT) microsatellite database. The number of polymorphic microsatellite loci incorporated in our database is over 1,000 in all strains, and the URL site for our database is located at http:// www.shigen.nig.ac.jp /mouse/mmdbj/mouse.html.
Pretrained Transformers for Text Ranking: BERT and Beyond (2020)

The goal of text ranking is to generate an ordered list of texts retrieved from a corpus in response to a query. Although the most common formulation of text ranking is search, instances of the task can also be found in many natural language processing applications. This survey provides an overview of text ranking with neural network architectures known as transformers, of which BERT is the best-known example. The combination of transformers and self-supervised pretraining has been responsible for a paradigm shift in natural language processing (NLP), information retrieval (IR), and beyond. In this survey, we provide a synthesis of existing work as a single point of entry for practitioners who wish to gain a better understanding of how to apply transformers to text ranking problems and researchers who wish to pursue work in this area. We cover a wide range of modern techniques, grouped into two high-level categories: transformer models that perform reranking in multi-stage architectures and dense retrieval techniques that perform ranking directly. There are two themes that pervade our survey: techniques for handling long documents, beyond typical sentence-by-sentence processing in NLP, and techniques for addressing the tradeoff between effectiveness (i.e., result quality) and efficiency (e.g., query latency, model and index size). Although transformer architectures and pretraining techniques are recent innovations, many aspects of how they are applied to text ranking are relatively well understood and represent mature techniques. However, there remain many open research questions, and thus in addition to laying out the foundations of pretrained transformers for text ranking, this survey also attempts to prognosticate where the field is heading.
AutoColor : Learned Light Power Control for Multi-Color Holograms (2023)

Multi-color holograms rely on simultaneous illumination from multiple light sources. These multi-color holograms could utilize light sources better than conventional single-color holograms and can improve the dynamic range of holographic displays. In this letter, we introduce AutoColor, the first learned method for estimating the optimal light source powers required for illuminating multi-color holograms. For this purpose, we establish the first multi-color hologram dataset using synthetic images and their depth information. We generate these synthetic images using a trending pipeline combining generative, large language, and monocular depth estimation models. Finally, we train our learned model using our dataset and experimentally demonstrate that AutoColor significantly decreases the number of steps required to optimize multi-color holograms from &gt;1000 to 70 iteration steps without compromising image quality.
Testing scheme for IC's clocks (1997)

This paper proposes a testing scheme to detect abnormal skews between clock signals inside digital synchronous ICs. The scheme is based on a new CMOS sensing circuit whose compactness and testability with respect to a large set of failures make it suitable for both off-line and on-line testing.
Changes in plasma TIMP-1 levels after resection for primary colorectal cancer. (2009)

A mean decline in plasma TIMP-1 levels was not observed within 90 days. However, individual significant reductions of plasma TIMP-1 levels did occur within 28-60 days postoperatively.
Use of Metabolomics to Trend Recovery and Therapy After Injury in Critically Ill Trauma Patients (2016)

Metabolomics can function as a serial, comprehensive, and potentially personalized tool to characterize metabolism after injury. A targeted metabolomics approach was associated with ongoing oxidative stress, impaired nucleotide synthesis, and initial suppression of protein metabolism followed by increased nitrogen turnover. This technique may provide new therapeutic and nutrition targets in critically injured patients.
Relationship between environmental conditions,TRI5 gene expression and deoxynivalenol production in storedLentinula edodes infected withFusarium graminearum (2018)

This study made the first attempt to relate the production of deoxynivalenol (DON) to the expression of TRI5 gene in Fusarium graminearum as a function of interacting environmental factors (water activity (a w ) (0.95-0.98), temperature (20-30 °C) and incubation time (7 day-28 day)), so as to investigate its production mechanisms in Lentinula edodes . Changes in temperature, water activity and incubation time could significantly ( P &lt;0.01) affect DON production and TRI5 gene expression. The highest DON concentration (793.5±27.4 μg/kg) and TRI5 gene expression (2 −ΔΔCt =38.8±4.8) were observed when the cultures were incubated at 20 °C and 0.98 a w for 21 days. Multi-regression analysis was performed and nonlinear models based on polynomial equations were established to uncover the individual effects of temperature, water activity and incubation time as well as their interactions on DON production and TRI5 gene expression. The established model was further used to develop contour maps to predict the DON production and TRI5 gene expression in relation to storage conditions in L. edodes . Highly significant positive correlation between DON production and fold TRI5 gene expression (R=0.5534, P &lt;0.0001) was observed in this commodity. The production mechanisms of DON in L. edodes revealed in the present study will be beneficial for developing more effective targeted control strategies.
Galvanic Test In Central Vestibular Lesions (1968)

1. Brainstem lesions without presence of a spontaneous vestibular nystagmus generally do not show any particular change of the pattern of the galvanic nystagmus reactions.2. In brainstem lesions with presence of a spontaneous nystagmus the threshold of the galvanic nystagmus is mostly normal whereas supra-liminar tests invariably show a pathological reversal phenomenon. Sometimes a relatively high incidence of abnormally increased amplitude and frequency values can be found, a phenomenon which is not observed among other groups.3. Cerebello-pontine angle tumours (acoustic neuroma excluded) show either a normal or only moderately raised nystagmus threshold.4. In supratentorial lesions of the brainstem the pattern of liminar and supraliminar galvanic responses is not characteristic.5. In lesions of the cerebral cortex threshold values are normal among the majority of the cases but supraliminar tests reveal a relatively high incidence of pathological directional preponderance towards the side of the lesion, which may also be combined with a corresponding directional preponderance of optokinetic nystagmus.

A Formal Framework for State Continuity of Protected Modules (2018)

With system crashes or power failures, state-continuity solutions ensure the state of protected modules, e.g., enclaves of Intel SGX, cannot be rolled back to a stale version. In this paper, we propose a general framework for formally modeling and verifying the state-continuity solutions. The framework supports solutions that use different security strategies, such as strategies based on hash values or monotonic counters. We first propose a general model for state-continuity solutions. The general model contains an adversary that controls not only the OS but also the power of the system, and common actions of the solutions for ensuring state continuity. Then, we propose a general refinement strategy to refine the general model to models of concrete solutions. If the model of a concrete solution can be refined from the general model by using the strategy, the solution ensures state continuity. We implement the framework in the Coq proof assistant, and demonstrate that a solution, called Memior, guarantees state continuity for protected modules.

Providing Minute-to-Minute Regulation from Wind Plants (2010)

Our earlier work showed that it may be both technically and economically feasible for wind plants to supply minute-to-minute regulation under some circumstances. In this paper, we extend the previous analysis using time series data from existing wind plants, system loads, and regulation and energy markets. Both wind plant response performance requirements and power system needs are addressed. In present-day regulation markets, the regulation market price is typically based on the supplier's opportunity cost in the energy market. With a near-zero marginal production cost, wind would not be expected to be an attractive regulation supplier most of the time. Minimum load problems, typically on nights with high wind, and the need for conventional generators to incur additional costs when operating above minimum loads appear to make regulation from wind an economical option for some hours of the year. Unlike contingency reserves whose prices are generally low at night, the price for regulation typically remains high around the clock. In this paper, we examine wind and regulation markets in several regions to assess the viability of the concept.
Effects of amygdala lesions on male mouse ultrasonic vocalizations and copulatory behaviour (2012)

Mice produce ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) in several behavioural contexts. In particular, male mice articulate a long series of various sounds to females during courtship behaviour. To determine the relationships between this kind of vocal behaviour and emotion, we examined the lesion effects of the amygdala, an important neural module in emotional behaviour, on USVs. We recorded USVs from mice in the lesion and the control (sham operation) groups upon presentation of females and compared USVs before and after surgery. We found that the mean syllable duration of the USVs shortened and the appearance rate of longer syllables decreased after the surgery. The main reasons for these alterations could be explained by the altered courtship behaviour. As reported previously, the mounting behaviour of the lesion group after surgery was markedly less than that of the control group. Therefore, the appearance rate of those longer syllables would decrease logically because longer syllables primarily appear during mounting and intromission. However, we can hypothesize another scenario for the alterations to vocal behaviour: effects on the direct amygdala-periaqueductal grey (PAG) projection might be involved in the increase in the appearance rate of shorter syllables owing to lesion-induced loss of emotions, such as vigilance. Overall, the results suggested two possible mechanisms of the amygdala lesions on the alteration of the vocal behaviour.
Widespread programmed cell death in early developing chick optictectum (1998)

We demonstrate that widespread programmed cell death exists in proliferative regions of chicken optic tectum during early development using a sensitive fluorescent ISEL method (FISEL+) and antibody staining for an antigen in dying cells. Several developmental stages from embryonic day (E) 3 to E18 were examined. FISEL+-positive cells were rare before E7 and between E9 to E12. However, massive labeling was observed in the ventricular zone (VZ) between stages E7.5 and E8. At this time extensive cell migration is underway and many labeled cells were found not only in the VZ (premigratory cells) but also in the intermediate zone and tectal plate (migratory cells). Many labeled cells were also found in upper tectal laminae at late developmental stages (E15 and E18).
BPM-Matlab: an open-source optical propagation simulation tool in MATLAB (2021)

We present the use of the Douglas-Gunn Alternating Direction Implicit finite difference method for computationally efficient simulation of the electric field propagation through a wide variety of optical fiber geometries. The method can accommodate refractive index profiles of arbitrary shape and is implemented in a tool called BPM-Matlab. We validate BPM-Matlab by comparing it to published experimental, numerical, and theoretical data and to commercially available state-of-the-art software. It is user-friendly, fast, and is available open-source. BPM-Matlab has a broad scope of applications in modeling a variety of optical fibers for diverse fields such as imaging, communication, material processing, and remote sensing.
Attitudes of social science students in Israel and Austria towards the Belated Twins scenario—an exploratory study (2009)

This article discusses results of a questionnaire survey of 156 university students in Israel and Austria examining reactions towards the Belated Twins scenario, which entails the artificial twinning of embryos of which one is immediately carried to term while the other one is born later. The scenario resembles a case of human reproductive cloning in terms of result (the creation of genetically identical individuals in a time-delayed manner) but it involves gamete fusion like "natural" reproduction. By means of qualitative text analysis we discuss the core themes mobilized both in support and opposition to the scenario. While Israeli and Austrian respondents held similar general attitudes (about half were in favour of legalizing Belated Twins, while about a third opposed it), they drew partly on different arguments to arrive at their conclusions. In both groups, uncertainty stemming from "novel" elements in the scenario was regularly interpreted as negatively exacerbating existing issues.
A microwave sensor dedicated to dielectric spectroscopy of nanoliter volumes of liquids medium and flowing particles (2015)

This paper presents a RF biosensor dedicated to the microwave dielectric spectroscopy on nanoliter volumes of liquids or to the detection and analysis on flowing microscale particles. This sensor uses a microfluidic network in order to guide the liquid and drive the particles to analyze. Once properly calibrated this sensor should allow measuring the intrinsic dielectric properties of unknown liquid medium and even individual characteristics of flowing particles. Indeed characterizations done on small volumes of liquids with this device showed a good agreement with macro scale measurements done using a coaxial probe. To demonstrate its sensing capabilities, experiments with polystyrene beads have been first performed and compared with 3D electromagnetic simulations which show that potential high detection sensitivity can be expected. This opens attractive prospects in the frame of microwave dielectric spectroscopy for microanalysis of various dielectric particles like biological cells as example.
