<title>Models for automatic classification of video sequences</title> (1997)

In this paper, we explore a technique for automatic classification of video sequences, (such as a TV broadcast, movies). This technique analyzes the incoming video sequences and classifies them into categories. It can be viewed as an on-line parser for video signals. We present two techniques for automatic classification. In the first technique, the incoming video sequence is analyzed to extract the motion information. This information is optimally projected onto a single dimension. This projection information is then used to train Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) that efficiently and accurately classify the incoming video sequence. Preliminary results with 50 different test sequences (25 Sports and 25 News sequences) indicae a classification accuracy of 90% by the HMM models. In the second technique, 24 full-length motion picture trailers are classified using HMMs. This classification is compared with the internet movie database and we find that they correlate well. Only two out of 24 trailers were classified incorrectly.
Sequencing to NRTI plus NNRTI-Only Combinations After Virological Failure of Protease Inhibitor-Based Combination HIV-1 Therapy (2003)

NRTI plus NNRTI-only combinations performed poorly, however the superior outcomes of patients treated with EFV are consistent with findings in cohort studies. The suggestion of benefit in patients receiving three NRTIs in addition to either NVP or EFV deserves further study in randomized trials.

Effect of Application Methods on Effectiveness of Titanium Dioxide as Photocatalyst Compound to Concrete Pavement (2010)

Photocatalytic compounds have the potential of removing harmful air pollutants from urban areas. One proposed method to expand the reach of this technology is to apply titanium dioxide to concrete pavement surface to result in air-purifying concrete pavement. However, the proper method of applying titanium dioxide to the concrete surface is still unclear. To this end, the objective of this study was to evaluate three methods of application for titanium dioxide to concrete pavement. Prepared samples were subjected to weathering and abrasion by using an accelerated loading test and rotary abrasion. The environmental efficiency of the original and weathered samples to remove nitrogen oxides from the atmosphere was measured using a newly developed laboratory setup. Microscopic analysis was conducted using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) to determine the relative concentration and distribution of titanium dioxide particles on the surface before and after weathering. Results of the experimental program showed that in the original state, the coating with 5% TiO2 and the PT product were the most efficient in removing nitrogen oxide from the air stream. On the other hand, results of the rotary abrasion test indicated that the use of a thin coating would be more susceptible to abrasion than the photocatalysis compounds applied using the sprinkling method or using the PT product. The highest NOx removal efficiency in the rotary abrasion state was measured for the coating with 5% TiO2. Results of SEM and EDS analysis showed that the samples treated with the PT product had a more uniform distribution and a higher concentration of TiO2 than the samples treated with the sprinkling method. This may explain the greater NO removal efficiency observed in the samples treated with PT product.
Supramolecular catalysis. Part 1: non-covalent interactions as a tool for building and modifying homogeneous catalysts (2013)

Supramolecular catalysis is a rapidly expanding discipline which has benefited from the development of both homogeneous catalysis and supramolecular chemistry. The properties of classical metal and organic catalysts can now be carefully tailored by means of several suitable approaches and the choice of reversible interactions such as hydrogen bond, metal-ligand, electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. The first part of these two subsequent reviews will be dedicated to catalytic systems for which non-covalent interactions between the partners of the reaction have been designed although mimicking enzyme properties has not been intended. Ligand, metal, organocatalyst, substrate, additive, and metal counterion are reaction partners that can be held together by non-covalent interactions. The resulting catalysts possess unique properties compared to analogues lacking the assembling properties. Depending on the nature of the reaction partners involved in the interactions, distinct applications have been accomplished, mainly (i) the building of bidentate ligand libraries (intra ligand-ligand), (ii) the building of di- or oligonuclear complexes (inter ligand-ligand), (iii) the alteration of the coordination spheres of a metal catalyst (ligand-ligand additive), and (iv) the control of the substrate reactivity (catalyst-substrate). More complex systems that involve the cooperative action of three reaction partners have also been disclosed. In this review, special attention will be given to supramolecular catalysts for which the observed catalytic activity and/or selectivity have been imputed to non-covalent interaction between the reaction partners. Additional features of these catalysts are the easy modulation of the catalytic performance by modifying one of their building blocks and the development of new catalytic pathways/reactions not achievable with classical covalent catalysts.
A human-machine collaborative approach to tracking human movement in multi-camera video (2009)

Although the availability of large video corpora are on the rise, the value of these datasets remain largely untapped due to the difficulty of analyzing their contents. Automatic video analyses produce low to medium accuracy for all but the simplest analysis tasks, while manual approaches are prohibitively expensive. In the tradeoff between accuracy and cost, human-machine collaborative systems that synergistically combine approaches may achieve far greater accuracy than automatic approaches at far less cost than manual. This paper presents TrackMarks, a system for annotating the location and identity of people and objects in large corpora of multi-camera video. TrackMarks incorporates a user interface that enables a human annotator to create, review, and edit video annotations, but also incorporates tracking agents that respond fluidly to the users actions, processing video automatically where possible, and making efficient use of available computing resources. In evaluation, TrackMarks is shown to improve the speed of a multi-object tracking task by an order of magnitude over manual annotation while retaining similarly high accuracy.
Influence of molecular design on biodistribution and targeting properties of an Affibody-fused HER2-recognising anticancer toxin (2016)

Targeted delivery of toxins is a promising way to treat disseminated cancer. The use of monoclonal antibodies as targeting moiety has provided proof-of-principle for this approach. However, extravasation and tissue penetration rates of antibody-based immunotoxins are limited due to antibody bulkiness. The use of a novel class of targeting probes, Affibody molecules, provides smaller toxin-conjugated constructs, which may improve targeting. Earlier, we have demonstrated that affitoxins containing a HER2-targeting Affibody moiety and a deimmunized and truncated exotoxin A from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, PE38X8, provide highly selective toxicity to HER2-expressing cancer cells. To evaluate the influence of molecular design on targeting and biodistribution properties, a series of novel affitoxins were labelled with the residualizing radionuclide 111In. In this study, we have shown that the novel conjugates are more rapidly internalized compared with the parental affitoxin. The use of a (HE)3 purification tag instead of a hexahistidine tag enabled significant (p<0.05) reduction of the hepatic uptake of the affitoxin in a murine model. Fusion of the affitoxin with an albumin-binding domain (ABD) caused appreciable extension of the residence time in circulation and several-fold reduction of the renal uptake. The best variant, 111In-(HE)3-ZHER2-ABD-PE38X8, demonstrated receptor-specific accumulation in HER2-expressing SKOV-3 xenografts. In conclusion, a careful molecular design of scaffold protein based anticancer targeted toxins can appreciably improve their biodistribution and targeting properties.
A Solar Simulator for the Measurement of Heat Collection Efficiency of Parabolic Trough Receivers (2015)

A solar simulator consisting oflinear focus unitsand a fluid circulation systemhas been constructed, and abasicschemeforevaluating heat collection efficiency of parabolic trough receivers has been demonstrated. The linear focal areaalong the 4 m long receiverwas formed byan array of twenty linear focusunits each with a 5kWXenon-short arc ramp. The flux distribution was measured by scanning a heat flux sensor, and the average flux of 24.3 kW/m2 was achieved along the half-round surface of the receiver tube. A parabolic trough receiver with the optical efficiency of 79.3% has been fabricatedand applied tothe demonstration.During irradiating the linear focal flux to the receiver, thecollectedthermal output was measured from the increase in temperature of water running through the receiver.The absoluteheat collection efficiency of 73.9%,defined as the ratioof the collectedthermal outputto theirradiated optical input,was obtained under the thermal equilibrium condition.
Observation of bistability and delayed bifurcation in a triply resonant optical parametric oscillator (1995)

We have experimentally studied the various dynamical regimes appearing in an optical parametric oscillator that is simultaneously resonant for the pump, the signal, and the idler modes, and we have observed bistability and instability. When the pump intensity is swept through the static threshold value in the monostable region, we observe that the oscillation is delayed by a time interval that is much larger than the characteristic evolution times of the system. The measurements are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions.

Dynamics of Infant Gut Microbiota Are Influenced by Delivery Mode and Gestational Duration and Are Associated with Subsequent Adiposity (2015)

This study shows that the acquisition of the early microbiota is strongly influenced by environmental factors such as the delivery mode and duration of gestation, even in healthy neonates. The composition of the early microbiota has been linked with long-lasting effects on health and disease. Here we show that the rate of acquisition of certain microbiota predicts adiposity at 18 months of age and so potentially the risk of later obesity.
Experimental Entanglement of a Six-Photon Symmetric Dicke State (2009)

We report on the experimental observation and characterization of a six-photon entangled Dicke state. We obtain a fidelity as high as 0.654+/-0.024 and prove genuine six-photon entanglement by, amongst others, a two-setting witness yielding -0.422+/-0.148. This state has remarkable properties; e.g., it allows obtaining inequivalent entangled states of a lower qubit number via projective measurements, and it possesses a high entanglement persistency against qubit loss. We characterize the properties of the six-photon Dicke state experimentally by detecting and analyzing the entanglement of a variety of multipartite entangled states.
Preparation and characterization of electrically conductive composites of poly(vinyl alcohol)–g–poly(acrylic acid) hydrogels impregnated with polyaniline (PANI) (2008)

Novel electrically conducting composite materials consisting of poly(aniline) (PANI) nanoparticles dispersed in a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-g-poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogels were prepared within the polymer matrix by in situ polymerization of aniline. The conversion yield of aniline into PANI particles was determined gravimetrically while structural confirmation of the synthesized polymer was sought by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), UV-visible analysis and X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. Morphology and dimension of PANI particles embedded into the colored optically semi-transparent hydrogels were evaluated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis. Electrical conductivity of composite hydrogels of different composition was determined by LCR meter while electroactive behavior of composite hydrogels swollen in electrolyte solution was investigated by Effective Bend Angle (EBA) measurements.

We describe the design and construction of cholesteric liquid-crystal elements for laser cavity end mirror applications and we give the Jones matrix [J. Opt. Soc. Am. 31, 488 (1941)] representation of these devices.
American Body Pedagogies: Somatics and the Cultural Construction of Bodies in the Institution of Higher Education (2007)

This paper explores body pedagogy, particularly related to how we teach dance technique in the United States. It addresses the paradigmatic positions underlying dance education and how somatics plays a role in how educators teach dance. Although somatics is viewed as a positive addition to a pedagogical repertoire, the author questions viewing it as a universal panacea for all the world's ills and points to larger sociopolitical factors concerning power dynamics and institutional power (that is, higher education dance).
A Method to Perform a Fast Fourier Transform With Primitive Image Transformations (2007)

The Fourier transform is one of the most important transformations in image processing. A major component of this influence comes from the ability to implement it efficiently on a digital computer. This paper describes a new methodology to perform a fast Fourier transform (FFT). This methodology emerges from considerations of the natural physical constraints imposed by image capture devices (camera/eye). The novel aspects of the specific FFT method described include: 1) a bit-wise reversal re-grouping operation of the conventional FFT is replaced by the use of lossless image rotation and scaling and 2) the usual arithmetic operations of complex multiplication are replaced with integer addition. The significance of the FFT presented in this paper is introduced by extending a discrete and finite image algebra, named Spiral Honeycomb Image Algebra (SHIA), to a continuous version, named SHIAC.
O1‐01‐01: INTEGRATIVE PROTEOMICS LINKS CEREBROSPINAL FLUID BIOMARKERS TO PATHOLOGICAL NETWORKS IN THE ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE BRAIN (2019)

There is a need for novel biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) that broadly serve as accurate indicators of the underlying pathophysiological processes occurring throughout disease. Thus, biomarker discovery should focus on identifying not only targets that are easily accessible and reliably measured, but also those with clear associations to the most critical mechanisms driving neurodegeneration. To achieve this goal, we used an unbiased proteomic approach to quantify protein levels in AD cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and linked these changes to network-based pathophysiology in diseased brains. Using quantitative liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) we comparatively analyzed the CSF proteomes from 40 samples, including 20 cognitively normal individuals (avg. MoCA=26.7) and 20 subjects with clinical diagnoses of AD (avg. MoCA=13.8). AD individuals demonstrated low amyloid (223.4 pg/mL) and high tau (143.5 pg/mL) levels compared to controls (540.4 pg/mL and 70.2 pg/mL, respectively) as measured by ELISA. The top 14 most abundant proteins in each CSF sample were depleted prior to proteolytic digestion and labeling with isobaric tandem-mass tags (TMT). Differential expression analysis resolved CSF proteins increased or decreased in AD. CSF protein biomarkers of AD were then mapped to TMT proteomic networks generated from control, AD, asymptomatic AD (AsymAD), and Parkinson's disease (PD) postmortem brain tissue (n=67 tissues). CSF proteomic analysis revealed a total of 2,875 proteins across all 40 samples, of which ∼70% were also measured in our brain proteome. Network analysis of the brain proteome identified a total of 8,817 proteins organized into 44 modules. Fifteen brain modules had a significant overlap with proteins identified in CSF. Synaptic and mitochondrial proteins mapping to three modules enriched with neuronal markers showed overall decreased levels in the AD brain, but increased levels in AD CSF. Conversely, Tau and microglial proteins mapping to modules associated with neuroinflammation (n=3) showed increased abundance in both the brain and CSF. Expression levels of these microglial modules in AsymAD brains indicated that these changes may start early in disease. These results provide a framework for identifying CSF markers highly reflective of underlying disease pathophysiology that could potentially serve as therapeutic targets.
Dark-spot formation by vector beams (2008)

Dark-spot formation is demonstrated by calculating electric-field distribution near the focus produced by focusing higher-order transverse-mode vector beams with radial and azimuthal polarizations in addition to Laguerre-Gaussian beams with linear and circular polarizations. The size of the dark spot in the radial direction varies from one beam to another, but the size in the axial direction is almost the same. The radially polarized TM02-mode beam is predicted to form a dark spot solely by an axial electric field.
Spatiotemporal optical coherence (STOC) manipulation suppresses coherent cross-talk in full-field swept-source optical coherence tomography (Conference Presentation) (2019)

Full-field swept-source optical coherence tomography (FF-SS-OCT) provides high-resolution depth-resolved images by parallel Fourier-domain interferometric detection. Traditionally, FF-SS-OCT suffers from the cross-talk-generated noise from spatially coherent lasers. This noise reduces the image quality and limits wide adaptation of FF-SS-OCT for practical and clinical applications. To tackle this problem, we demonstrate and implement the spatiotemporal optical coherence (STOC) manipulation. In STOC, the phase of light in one of the interferometer arm is modulated in time with inhomogeneous phase masks displayed sequentially on the SLM. This modulation is synchronized with light acquisition to effectively control the spatial coherence of the detected light. A term "effectively" means that we do not generate the secondary source with imposed coherence properties (e.g. spatial incoherence). Instead the idea is to tailor the incident light to constrict the region of high fringe visibility to the spatial extents individual detection channels. Hence, SLM pixels are grouped into small blocks of uniform phase shifts. Then, phases are varied in time to modulate the light incident on the sample. By matching the dimensions of the SLM blocks to spatial extents of detection channels, we can de-correlate light from each channel. The unwanted interference between channels is washed-out and the cross-talk-generated noise is suppressed, helping to improve image quality. Here, the STOC approach is validated by imaging 1951 USAF resolution test chart covered by diffuser, scattering phantom and the rat skin ex vivo. Our results show a promising enhancement of the FF-SS-OCT capabilities that can be beneficial for imaging biological samples.
