Analysis for Mechanical Behavior of GFRP Rock Bolt for Permanent Support of Tunnel (2010)

Rock Bolt generally utilizes deformed reinforcing bar welded from structural steel of which strength is higher than required for making advantageous use of the support function of ground. In the condition with highly corrosive underground water, however, problem frequently occurs on tunnel and slope stabilization in terms of repair, rehabilitation and maintenance issues due to the destruction of Rock Bolt by corrosion of steel. A structural performance evaluation for GFRP Rock Bolt was conducted for the purpose of resolving the foregoing problem and at the same time developing a permanently-usable support material. This study intended to evaluate the safety factor of GFRP Rock Bolt by implementing the slope stability interpretation via structural analysis on the basis of its structural characteristics derived from both tensile force function test and shear force function test. It is judged based on the results that GFRP Rock Bolt would secure sufficient ground stability as an alternative material for existing Steel Rock Bolt.
Adapting off-the-shelf CNNs for word spotting &amp; recognition (2015)

The word spotting approach is extremely useful for searching and annotating documents for which robust recognizers are unavailable. Traditionally, hand-designed features were used to represent the word images for spotting. In this paper, we learn a data-driven representation for word-images from Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Previous approaches that learn deep neural networks for a particular task/dataset are difficult to design and train for generic word spotting. Instead, by “adapting” a CNN trained for a different problem, we show tremendous speedup in the training phase. Our experiments show that features extracted from an adapted-CNN handsomely outperform hand-designed features on both spotting and recognition tasks for printed (English and Telugu) and handwritten (IAM) document collections.

15 Years of Reproducible Research in Computational Harmonic Analysis (2008)

Scientific Computation is emerging as absolutely central to the scientific method. Unfortunately, it is error-prone and currently immature: traditional scientific publication is incapable of finding and rooting out errors in scientific computation; this must be recognized as a crisis. Reproducible computational research, in which the full computational environment that produces a result is published along with the article, is an important recent development, and a necessary response to this crisis. We have been practicing reproducible computational research for 15 years and integrated it with our scientific research, and with doctoral and postdoctoral education. In this article, we review our approach, how the approach has spread over time, and how science funding agencies could help spread the idea more rapidly. 1
A comparative study on methods of optimal sample preparation for the analysis of oligonucleotides by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (2000)

Metal adducts (e.g., Na+ and K+) significantly hinder the analysis of oligonucleotides by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Although a number of sample purification methods exist, to date no comparative study exists to determine the most efficient method for purifying oligonucleotides. The objective of this work was to perform such a study. Several different oligonucleotide samples were synthesized. Aliquots of these samples were then purposely contaminated with sodium acetate to generate representative contaminated (salted) oligonucleotide samples. A number of popular oligonucleotide purification techniques were then tested as to their effectiveness at removing Na+ from the salted samples. The effectiveness of Na+ removal was qualitatively assessed by comparing the MALDI mass spectra of the original sample, the salted sample, and the salted sample after purification. Micropipet tips packed with C18 reversed-phase packing material (e.g., Zip Tips) appear to be the most effective means of purifying the oligonucleotides investigated. Minidialysis was found to be an effective alternative for purifying higher molecular weight oligonucleotides (> 10,000 u).

Involvement of protein phsophatase‐1 in cytoskeletal organization of cultured endothelial cells (1995)

The phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of cytoskeletal proteins regulate the shape of eukaryotic cells. To elucidate the role of serine/threonine protein phosphatases (PP) in this process, we studied the effects of calyculin A (CLA), a potent and specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 (PP-1) and 2A (PP-2A) on the cytoskeletal structure of cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The addition of CLA (5 min) caused marked alterations in cell morphology, such as cell constriction and bleb formation. Microtubules and F-actin were reorganized, becoming markedly condensed around the nucleus. Although the fluorescence intensity of phosphoamino acids was not significantly different according to immunocytochemistry between cells with and without CLA, polypeptides of 135, 140, 158, and 175 kDa were specifically phosphorylated on serine and/or threonine residues. There was no significant effect on tyrosine residues. The effects of CLA on cytoskeletal changes and protein phosphorylation were almost completely inhibited by the non-selective kinase inhibitor, K-252a. The effect of CLA on cell morphology was at least 100 times more potent than that of okadaic acid, consistent with the inhibitory potency against PP-1. The catalytic subunit of PP-1 was also identified in HUVECs by Western blotting with its monoclonal antibody antibody. These results suggest that PP-1 is closely involved in sustaining the normal structure of the cytoskeleton.
Commercialization efforts for high temperature ceramic recuperators for industrial energy conservation (1981)

The High Temperature Ceramic Cross Flow Recuperator was tested in actual furnacing operations under a Department of Energy Program, ''Technology Acceleration Program for High Temperature Recuperators.'' This program has a goal of installing and monitoring 175 ceramic recuperators on industrial furnaces of many different types and utilizing high temperature furnace exhausts greater than 1500 F to preheat combustion air and document the actual fuel savings. This paper will discuss the work being done under this program with actual case studies of forging, normalizing, heat treating, aluminum pot melting, ladle heating, reverbs, calcine and radient tube furnaces. The discussion will cover both combustion systems design as well as cost and payback analysis.
Suspended minerogenic particles in a reservoir: Light‐scattering features from individual particle analysis (2007)

Light‐scattering attributes of minerogenic particles in a reservoir, where these particles dominate over a wide range of light‐scattering levels, were characterized by an individual particle analysis technique, scanning electron microscopy interfaced with automated X‐ray microanalysis and image analysis (SAX). SAX provided characterizations of the elemental X‐ray composition, shape, number concentration (N), particle size distribution (PSD), and projected area per unit volume (PAV m ) of these particles. Clay mineral particles represented ~84% of the PAV m , and they deviated from sphericity more than the other components of the minerogenic assemblage. Scattering coefficients for minerogenic particles at 660 nm ( b m (660)) were estimated directly from SAX results based on Mie theory. Both PAV m and b m (660) were strong predictors of the observed wide variations in light scattering. Most of the light scattering in the reservoir was attributable to particles in the size range 2‐8 µm. Reasonably good closure is reported for estimates of b m (660), based on comparisons to in situ measurements of the beam attenuation coefficient at 660 nm. The widely used hyperbolic (or Junge) model (to describe PSDs) failed to accurately represent the total value and the particle size dependency of b m (660) as calculated from SAX observations, whereas the two‐component PSD model (using both components or the “ B ”‐component only) succeeded for these two features. SAX offers the opportunity to advance partitioning of scattering between minerogenic and organic particle contributions as well as among constituents of the minerogenic component.
Direct image transmission through an optical fibre with the aid of spectral image encoding (1995)

An analysis is made of the possibility of using spectral encoding in parallel transmission of a two-dimensional image along a fibre.
A sieve algorithm for the shortest lattice vector problem (2001)

We present a randomized 2^{O(n)} time algorithm to compute a shortest non-zero vector in an n-dimensional rational lattice. The best known time upper bound for this problem was 2^{O(n\log n)} first given by Kannan [7] in 1983. We obtain several consequences of this algorithm for related problems on lattices and codes, including an improvement for polynomial time approximations to the shortest vector problem. In this improvement we gain a factor of log log n in the exponent of the approximating factor.
Phimosis: Is circumcision necessary? (1996)

Circumcision has been the traditional treatment for phimosis, but now is not the only management option, the best of which appears to be topical steroid application. Importantly, the literature suggests that phimosis probably is over-diagnosed, indicating that a prospective, randomized controlled study is needed to compare the non-circumcision options. Such a study would require consensus on the diagnostic criteria for phimosis; therefore, a more exacting definition would be needed and is suggested. Despite the non-controlled data on medical treatment of true phimosis, there seems little doubt that surgical intervention is not needed for all male infants with adherence of the foreskin to the glans, a non-retractable foreskin or, indeed, true phimosis.
Memristor-Based Circuit Implementations of Recognition Network and Recall Network With Forgetting Stages (2018)

This paper proposes a novel memistor-based neuron circuit, in which the memristor-CMOS hybrid synaptic circuit simply utilizes the positive voltage to change the memristance. At the same time, in order to obtain the memristance and output voltage changes in the neuron circuit, a mathematical deduction is implemented according to the circuit structure. Then, the memristor-based recognition and recall network circuits are constructed based on the proposed neuron circuit. The recognition and recall functions are realized by associative learning between the unconditional stimuli and the conditional stimuli (CS). After the learning stages, the single presentation of CS activates forgetting stages in the two networks. Furthermore, the related parameter changes in the learning and forgetting stages can be calculated by the deduced equations approximately. The PSPICE simulations are implemented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed circuits and the deduced equations.

Synthesis, Molecular Structure, and Reactivity of Indenylrhodium Complexes Containing Diphenylcarbene as Ligand (2000)

(η5-Indenyl)rhodium(I) complexes of the general composition [(η5-C9H7)Rh(CPh2)(L)] (L = SbiPr3 (6), PiPr3 (7), PPh3 (8), PiPrPh2 (9), PiPr2Ph (10)) were prepared from the square-planar precursors trans-[RhCl(CPh2)(L)2] (1−5) and C9H7K in THF. Treatment of 6−10 with carbon monoxide resulted in an unusual migratory insertion of the carbene ligand into one of the C−H bonds of the five-membered ring of the indenyl unit to give the compounds [{η5-C9H6(CHPh2)}Rh(CO)(L)] (12−16) in 78−87% yield. The X-ray crystal structure analyses of 6 and 13 revealed that in both complexes the slip distortion from a η5 to a η3 coordination mode of the indenyl ligand is nearly the same, independent of the bulky CHPh2 group in the ring-substituted species.
Ferromagnetism at Very High Frequencies. III. Two Mechanisms of Dispersion in a Ferrite (1950)

The magnetic spectrum of a ferrite is shown to contain two regions of pronounced dispersion. One occurs at radiofrequencies, resembles a resonance, and is proved to be due to domain wall displacements; the other occurs in the microwave range, exhibits typical resonance characteristics, and is attributed to domain rotations. The identification of the dispersion mechanisms is based primarily on a comparison of the complex permeability of solid samples with that of small particles of the same material. Several manifestations of single-domain behavior are reported, and a study of remanence by high frequency methods is presented. The wall effects are interpreted in terms of the concept of apparent wall inertia and it is shown that microscopic eddy currents cannot cause the damping. The rotational effects are interpreted on the basis of crystalline anisotropy. Previously used methods for identifying dispersion mechanisms are discussed.

Endovascular electroencephalography: the technique and its application during carotid amytal assessment. (1997)

The EEG was recorded using an endovascular guide wire as the electrode. This was Teflon coated except for its terminal portion, which was placed distal to the origin of the middle cerebral artery. Four hemispheres were sampled sequentially in two patients with intractable complex partial seizures who were undergoing routine preoperative carotid amytal assessment. Epileptiform spikes were detected in one patient, concordant with decreased hippocampal volume on MRI and scalp EEG changes. Endovascular EEG during the amytal procedure is less invasive than other intracranial EEG methods and may develop a role in preoperative assessment of selected patients with intractable epilepsy.
Abstract: An Indoor Localization Simulation Platform for Localization Accuracy Evaluation (2018)

With the widespread adoption of location-based services, users are increasingly demanding high- precision indoor localization. However, the deployment of localization network elements, i.e., localization base stations (LBS), mostly depends on experiences which usually leads to an extreme deployment cost. We therefore develop an indoor localization simulation platform, which can obtain the error distributions of the localization system under different LBS deployments, and also provide a near-optimal LBS deployment in practice.
Industrial strength ontology management (2001)

. Ontologies are becoming increasingly prevalent and important in a wide range of e-commerce applications. E-commerce applications are using ontologies to support parametric searches, enhanced navigation and browsing, interoperable heterogeneous information systems, supplier enablement, configuration management, and transaction discovery. Applications such as information and service discovery and autonomous agents that are built on top of the emerging Semantic Web for the WWW also require extensive use of ontologies. Ontology-enhanced commercial applications, such as these and others require ontology management that is scalable (supporting thousands of simultaneous distributed users), available (running 365x24x7), fast, and reliable. This level of ontology management is necessary not only for the initial development and maintenance of ontologies, but is essential during deployment, when scalability, availability, reliability and performance are absolutely critical. VerticalNet&amp;apos;s Ontology Builder and Ontology Server products are specifically designed to provide the ontology management infrastructure needed for e-commerce applications. These tools bring the best ontology and knowledge representation practices together with the best enterprise solutions architecture to provide a robust and scalable ontology management solution. 1
Contextual Hourglass Network for Semantic Segmentation of High Resolution Aerial Imagery (2018)

Semantic segmentation for aerial imagery is a challenging and important problem in remotely sensed imagery analysis. In recent years, with the success of deep learning, various convolutional neural network (CNN) based models have been developed. However, due to the varying sizes of the objects and imbalanced class labels, it can be challenging to obtain accurate pixel-wise semantic segmentation results. To address those challenges, we develop a novel semantic segmentation method and call it Contextual Hourglass Network. In our method, in order to improve the robustness of the prediction, we design a new contextual hourglass module which incorporates attention mechanism on processed low-resolution featuremaps to exploit the contextual semantics. We further exploit the stacked encoder-decoder structure by connecting multiple contextual hourglass modules from end to end. This architecture can effectively extract rich multi-scale features and add more feedback loops for better learning contextual semantics through intermediate supervision. To demonstrate the efficacy of our semantic segmentation method, we test it on Potsdam and Vaihingen datasets. Through the comparisons to other baseline methods, our method yields the best results on overall performance.

Simple classes of constrained systems with unconstrained positions that outperform the maxentropic bound (2008)

The Wijngaarden-Immink (WI) scheme is a combined modulation/ECC coding scheme, where arbitrary user data are translated into a constrained sequence in which predefined positions are reserved for ECC parity. Besides offering the benefit of combined modulation/ECC coding, the WI scheme has two extra benefits. They are a) error propagation is limited to the constrained symbols, since symbols on the unconstrained positions are not related, and b) code hardware is limited to a look-up table of the coded part. We will describe classes of simple bit-stuffing schemes that require less redundancy than predicted by the bound based on the performance of maxentropic constrained systems presented by Campello et al. [1] and Poo et al. [2].
PScout (2012)

Modern smartphone operating systems (OSs) have been developed with a greater emphasis on security and protecting privacy. One of the mechanisms these systems use to protect users is a permission system, which requires developers to declare what sensitive resources their applications will use, has users agree with this request when they install the application and constrains the application to the requested resources during runtime. As these permission systems become more common, questions have risen about their design and implementation. In this paper, we perform an analysis of the permission system of the Android smartphone OS in an attempt to begin answering some of these questions. Because the documentation of Android's permission system is incomplete and because we wanted to be able to analyze several versions of Android, we developed PScout, a tool that extracts the permission specification from the Android OS source code using static analysis. PScout overcomes several challenges, such as scalability due to Android's 3.4 million line code base, accounting for permission enforcement across processes due to Android's use of IPC, and abstracting Android's diverse permission checking mechanisms into a single primitive for analysis.
Somatostatin‐induced control of cytosolic free calcium in pituitary tumour cells (2000)

1. In rat pituitary tumour cells (GC cells), spontaneous oscillations of the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) induce growth hormone (GH) secretion that is inhibited by octreotide, a somatostatin (SRIF) agonist which binds to SRIF subtype (sst) receptor 2. The effects of its functional activation on the control of [Ca2+]i were investigated using fluorimetric measurements of [Ca2+]i. 2. SRIF decreases the basal [Ca2+]i and the [Ca2+]i rise in response to forskolin (FSK) through the inhibition of L-type voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. 3. Pretreatment with octreotide or with L-Tyr8++ Cyanamid 154806, a sst2 receptor antagonist, abolishes the SRIF-induced inhibition of [Ca2+]i. Octreotide is known to operate through agonist-induced desensitization, while the antagonist operates through receptor blockade. 4. sst1 and sst2 receptor-immunoreactivities (-IRs) are localized to cell membranes. sst2, but not sst1 receptor-IR, internalizes after cell exposure to octreotide. 5. SRIF-induced inhibition of basal [Ca2+]i or FSK-induced Ca2+ entry is blocked by pertussis toxin (PTX). 6. FSK-induced cyclic AMP accumulation is only partially decreased by SRIF or octreotide, indicating that sst2 receptors are coupled to intracellular pathways other than adenylyl cyclase (AC) inhibition. 7. In the presence of H-89, an inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), SRIF-induced inhibition of basal [Ca2+]i is still present, although reduced in amplitude. 8. SRIF inhibits [Ca2+]i by activating sst2 receptors. Inhibition of AC activity is only partly responsible for this effect, and other transduction pathways may be involved.
