A highly sensitive twist sensor without temperature cross sensitivity based on tapered single-thin-single fiber offset structure (2017)

A highly sensitive twist sensor without temperature cross sensitivity based on tapered single mode-thin core-single mode fiber offset structure is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The two parameters mentioned above can be measured simultaneously without cross sensitivity. The twist sensitivity of 0.12dB/&deg; is achieved by tracking power variation of the resonant wavelength, and the wavelength shift of the spectrum is &plusmn;0.01nm. The temperature sensitivity of 0.12nm/&deg;C can be achieved by wavelength demodulation, and the power fluctuation of the spectrum is &plusmn;0.015dB. Therefore, the twist and temperature can be detected by the power and wavelength demodulation method, respectively.
Application of search algorithms to natural language processing (2003)

Currently, the most common technique for Natural Language parsing is done by using pattern matching through references to a database with the aid of grammatical structures models. But the huge variety of linguistical syntax and semantics means that accurate real time analysis is very difficult. We investigate several optimisation approaches to reduce the search space for finding an accurate parse of a sentence where individual words can have multiple possible syntactic categories, and categories and phrases can combine together in different ways. The algorithms we consider include mechanisms for ordering that reduce the search cost without loss of completeness or accuracy as well as mechanisms that prune the space and may result in eliminating valid parses or returning a suboptimal as the best parse. We discuss the development and benchmarking of the existing and proposed algorithms in terms of accuracy, search space and parse time. Speed up of an order of magnitude was achieved without loss of completeness, whilst decrease of over two orders of magnitude was achieved in the search space. A further order of magnitude reduction of both time and search space was achieved at the expense of some loss of accuracy in finding the most probable parse.
Detection and classification of time-critical targets using seismic sensors (2002)

In the late 1990s, ARL:UT developed a real-time system capable of detecting and classifying a variety of vehicles using a single 3-axis seismic sensor. At that time, the detection and classification software was designed to classify vehicles for a variety of features, including the number of cylinders in the engine, number of axles, engine type, traction mechanism, and relative weight. Using a single 3-axis seismic sensor, buried approximately 3 feet deep, the demonstration system showed that it was possible to detect and classify a single time-critical target, moving with constant bearing and speed. Since then, modifications have been made to the detection and classification software in support of a transition of the algorithms into unattended MASINT sensors (UMS). This paper describes the next evolution of the detection and classification system, which focuses on generating highly accurate traction mechanism and relative weight classifications. The current build of the software has proven capable of detecting vehicles and generating high confidence classifications for a wide range of vehicles and test scenarios, and performs well for both buried and hand-emplaced sensors. Included in the paper is a description of the upgrades made to the classification algorithms, event switching, and graphical user interface (GUI), an outline of the processing and analysis of seismic data, and a summary of the software performance for a wider range of vehicles, test scenarios, and sensor configurations.
Cognitive processes in patients with different structure of anxiety disorders (2018)

A distinct trend towards an increase of cognitive impairment depending on an increase in the complicity of psychopathological picture was observed as follows: GAD - AFD - AHD. A decrease in visual-motor coordination and visual attention was found in patients with GAD. In AFD patients, besides disturbances characteristic of GAD, there was a decrease on the WAIS Vocabulary subtest. In AHD patients, there was a decrease in analytic and synthetic abilities. The heterogeneity of changes in cognitive processes and the structure of their correlations with psychopathological symptoms in anxiety disorders was revealed as follows: a decrease in some parameters of cognitive processes in anxiety disorders with mild structure, an increase in cognitive dysfunction and in a number of correlations in anxiety disorders with more complex psychopathological picture, higher scores on the WAIS Block design task.

Body cooling in human males by cold-water immersion after vigorous exercise. (1984)

Five male subjects were immersed to neck level in a whole-body water calorimeter (water temperature 19 degrees C) on two occasions. One immersion was preceded by 30 min of exercise on a treadmill at 80% of the subjects' maximum heart rate, while the other was preceded by no exercise (control). Ventilation, oxygen consumption, hand-grip strength, and heat loss (measured by calorimetry) results showed no significant differences between resting and exercise trials. Minute ventilation and oxygen consumption increased during the immersion but the magnitude of the increase varied among subjects. There was a significant decrease is isometric hand-grip strength after 30 min of immersion. Rectal temperatures fell faster (0.031 degree C +/- 0.004 degree C/min) for exercised subjects than for controls (0.019 degree C +/- 0.005 degree C/min) between 10 and 45 min of immersion (P less than 0.01). It appears that vigorous preimmersion exercise may shorten survival time in cold water due to an increase in cooling rate.
Enhancement of Transformative Learning in Large Classes of Leaners in Engineering Education (2018)

Engineering education in the universities and colleges involves the combination of cognitive learning theory and experiential learning theory to ensure transformative learning. These theories form part of the conceptual frameworks that describe how information is absorbed, processed, and retained during engineering education and training. While the application of cognitive learning theory in engineering education focuses on understanding the learners with regards to the complexities of human memory, experiential learning theory aims at developing in the learners the societal technical observation and community commitment skills necessary to shape and transform them into competent young engineers. In addition, transformative learning theory seeks to explain and enhance how the learners revise and reinterpret information acquired during engineering education. Therefore, the combination of the cognitive learning theory and the experiential learning makes the application of transformative learning effective in engineering education. In addition, transformative learning provides an individual the opportunity to acquire experience, question some assumptions during learning, and reflect on them at the later stage. However, the degree of the enhanced transformative learning in engineering education is forestalled by the size of class we have in our universities today. Therefore, it is essential to know the effects of large class of learners on transformative learning in engineering education and how these effects could be minimized to promote transformative learning. In this article, effects of large classes on effective transformative learning in engineering education are enumerated, and suggested solutions to alleviating these effects are discussed.
Highly Reversible Lithium Storage in Spheroidal Carbon‐Coated Silicon Nanocomposites as Anodes for Lithium‐Ion Batteries (2006)

A Static Analyzer for Detecting Tensor Shape Errors in Deep Neural Network Training Code (2022)

We present an automatic static analyzer PyTea that detects tensorshape errors in PyTorch code. The tensor-shape error is critical in the deep neural net code; much of the training cost and intermediate results are to be lost once a tensor shape mismatch occurs in the midst of the training phase. Given the input PyTorch source, PyTea statically traces every possible execution path, collects tensor shape constraints required by the tensor operation sequence of the path, and decides if the constraints are unsatisfiable (hence a shape error can occur). PyTea’s scalability and precision hinges on the characteristics of real-world PyTorch applications: the number of execution paths after PyTea’s conservative pruning rarely explodes and loops are simple enough to be circumscribed by our symbolic abstraction. We tested PyTea against the projects in the official PyTorch repository and some tensor-error code questioned in the StackOverflow. PyTea successfully detects tensor shape errors in these codes, each within a few seconds.
Angiopoietin-1 Is Regulated by miR-204 and Contributes to Corneal Neovascularization in KLEIP-Deficient Mice (2014)

Vascular endothelial growth factor does not act as a major player in corneal neovascularization in KLEIP(-/-) mice. However, the proangiogenic factor angiopoietin-1 was strongly upregulated in late-stage phenotype, correlating with loss of miR-204 expression. Correspondingly, we identified miR-204 as a novel regulator of angiopoietin-1 in vitro. These findings may explain the incomplete efficacy of anti-VEGF therapy in the clinic and may provide new candidates for pharmaceutical intervention.
Subkilohertz-narrowed, Frequency/phase-locked Mid-IR Quantum Cascade Lasers for High-precision Molecular Spectroscopy (2013)

We narrow QCL radiation below 1 kHz by using two different techniques: frequency locking to a molecular transition and phase locking to an absolutely-referenced difference-frequency-generated source. Applications of both techniques are presented.

Noribogaine stimulates naloxone-sensitive [35S]GTPγS binding (1998)

Noribogaine is formed in vivo by the O-demethylation of the indole alkaloid ibogaine. We report here that noribogaine acts as a full agonist at the mu-opioid receptor. Noribogaine-stimulated guanylyl 5'gamma-[35S]thio]triphosphate ([35S]GTPgammaS) was studied in rat thalamic membranes to measure activation of guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G-proteins) in the presence of excess GDP. Noribogaine caused a 170% increase above basal [35S]GTPgammaS binding at sub-micromolar effective concentrations (EC50) in a naloxone-sensitive manner, confirming that this effect was an opioid receptor-mediated process. The level of intrinsic activity for noribogaine in these assays was comparable to the full agonists DAMGO and morphine. In contrast, ibogaine had no significant effect on [35S]GTPgammaS binding over a similar concentration range. The efficacy of noribogaine as a full mu-opioid agonist may explain ibogaine's ability to block the acute signs of opiate withdrawal and its suppressive effects on morphine self-administration.

Modulating Oxytocin Activity and Plasma Stability by Disulfide Bond Engineering (2010)

Disulfide bond engineering is an important approach to improve the metabolic half-life of cysteine-containing peptides. Eleven analogues of oxytocin were synthesized including disulfide bond replacements by thioether, selenylsulfide, diselenide, and ditelluride bridges, and their stabilities in human plasma and activity at the human oxytocin receptor were assessed. The cystathionine (K(i) = 1.5 nM, and EC₅₀ = 32 nM), selenylsulfide (K(i) = 0.29/0.72 nM, and EC₅₀ = 2.6/154 nM), diselenide (K(i) = 11.8 nM, and EC₅₀ = 18 nM), and ditelluride analogues (K(i) = 7.6 nM, and EC₅₀ = 27.3 nM) retained considerable affinity and functional potency as compared to oxytocin (K(i) = 0.79 nM, and EC₅₀ = 15 nM), while shortening the disulfide bridge abolished binding and functional activity. The mimetics showed a 1.5-3-fold enhancement of plasma stability as compared to oxytocin (t(½) = 12 h). By contrast, the all-D-oxytocin and head to tail cyclic oxytocin analogues, while significantly more stable with half-lives greater than 48 h, had little or no detectable binding or functional activity.
ATom: L2 Measurements of In Situ Airborne Formaldehyde (ISAF) (2019)

This dataset provides the atmospheric volume mixing ratio of formaldehyde measured during airborne campaigns conducted by NASA's Atmospheric Tomography (ATom) mission. ATom deploys an extensive gas and aerosol payload on the NASA DC-8 aircraft for systematic, global-scale sampling of the atmosphere, profiling continuously from 0.2 to 12 km altitude. Flights occurred in each of 4 seasons from 2016 to 2018. The NASA In Situ Airborne Formaldehyde (ISAF) instrument, based at the Goddard Space Flight Center, measures formaldehyde on high-altitude NASA aircraft. The instrument uses laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) to obtain the high detection sensitivity needed to detect formaldehyde in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere where abundances are 10 parts per trillion. LIF also enables a fast time response needed to measure the abundance of formaldehyde in the finely structured outflow of convective storms. These measurements of formaldehyde will be used elucidate mechanisms of convective transport and quantify the effects of boundary layer pollutants on the ozone photochemistry and cloud microphysics of the upper atmosphere.
Radically altered T cell receptor signaling in glycopeptide-specific T cell hybridoma induced by antigen with minimal differences in the glycan group (2001)

A T cell hybridoma raised against the synthetic glycopeptide T(72)(Tn) was used to study whether the initial TCR signaling events are markedly different when the hybridoma is stimulated with glycopeptides closely related to the cognate glycopeptide antigen. T(72)(Tn) has an alpha-D-GalNAc group O-linked to the central threonine in the decapeptide VITAFTEGLK, and the hybridoma is known to be highly specific for this carbohydrate group. T(72)(Tn)-pulsed APC induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the TCR-zeta 21- and 23-kDa proteins and the downstream p42/44 MAP kinase and strong IL-2 secretion. APC pulsed with T(72)(alpha-D-GlcNAc), which differs from T(72)(Tn) solely by the orientation of a hydroxy group in the carbohydrate structure, completely failed to induce detectable tyrosine phosphorylation and IL-2 secretion. APC pulsed with S(72)(Tn), which differs from T(72)(Tn) by not having a methyl group in the serine amino acid side chain to which the glycan is attached, induced partial tyrosine phosphorylation of the TCR-zeta 21-kDa protein, no tyrosine phosphorylation of the MAP kinases and no IL-2 production. Molecular modeling of the MHC/glycopeptide complex revealed that the dramatic difference between the stimulatory power of T(72)(Tn) and T(72)(alpha-D-GlcNAc) is mainly due to very small differences in the TCR exposed carbohydrate structure.
Static image principle for anisotropic layered medium using transmission line analogy (1994)

Anisotropic medium in electrostatic problems has been a great interest for geophysicists because it allows the use of more realistic models in geophysical studies. Problems involving planar anisotropic medium have been studied by different authors and image principles of these kinds of problems, like an anisotropic half‐space bounded by a perfectly electrically or magnetically conducting plane, an impedance surface, or two similar transverse anisotropies, have been applied. Same examples are also considered by using transmission line analogy. This paper deals with a static problem involving layered anisotropic structure consisting of three different media with similar transverse anisotropies. A transmission line analogy is exploited to derive an electrostatic solution for reflection and transmission problems. A quasi‐physical interpretation of these solutions in terms of image sources is given.
Once upon a time…the (hi)story of the concept of thechaîne opératoirein French prehistory (2017)

The concept of the chaîne opératoire was popularized in the English-speaking world for the first time in the Archaeological Review from Cambridge in 1990. At that time, the history of the integration of this concept into French prehistory had begun. It would take a few years for this process to be successfully completed and more years for the history of research in lithic technology to take this into account. However, the concept and its history have, since the 1990s, been the subject of particularly intriguing writing and rewriting issues. This article presents the state of knowledge on this matter 1) by exposing what could be called the ‘official’ version of this history and 2) by correcting it with concrete historiographical facts gathered in the literature. In doing so, it also speculates on the context and motivations of scholars involved in these projects of writing the concept of the chaîne opératoire.
Sweat Droplets Detection Using Image Segmentation on Skin Surface for Evaluation of Sweating Responses to Thermal Stimulus in Atopic Dermatitis (2021)

In this paper, we propose a method for automatically detecting sweat droplets from images taken by replicas of the silicone skin surface created by the Impression Mold Technique (IMT) to evaluate sweating responses to thermal stimulus in atopic dermatitis. The proposed method is a U-Net based image segmentation using deep learning. From experimental results, we succeeded in obtaining a result close to the expert’s manual identification result of sweat droplets.
Effect of nano‐Mg(OH)2 on the mechanical and flame‐retarding properties of polypropylene composites (2004)

Abstract Nano‐Mg(OH) 2 was synthesized with an in situ deposition technique, and its size was confirmed by X‐ray diffraction. A polypropylene–Mg(OH) 2 composite was prepared by melt‐extrusion processing. The addition of a small quantity of a nanofiller (up to 10 wt %) increased Young's modulus up to 433% with respect to the modulus of virgin polypropylene. The addition of up to 4 wt % Mg(OH) 2 produced the maximum increase, and a further decrease in the tensile strength was observed with an increase in the concentration of nano‐Mg(OH) 2 . Increases in the hardness and other properties were due to higher nucleation and the intercalation of polymer chains in the nanolayer galleries. The flame‐retarding property was demonstrated by the rate of burning. The time required to burn the nanofilled composite was greater than the time required for virgin polypropylene. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 94: 116–122, 2004

Forward blocking characteristics of SOI power devices at high temperatures (2002)

The forward blocking characteristics of lateral power devices on SOI-substrate are analyzed using two-dimensional numerical device simulation and compared with measurements of LIGBT and LDMOS devices. The critical influence of different emitter structures on the leakage current and breakdown voltage of the LIGBT are discussed in detail. Sketching the trade-off between forward blocking and on-state voltage drop, it will be shown, that a LIGBT with convenient shorted anode can have a similar blocking characteristic compared to the LDMOS without sacrificing its superior on-state behaviour, even at temperatures up to 225/spl deg/C.
