Neural correlates of semantic and morphological processing of Hebrew nouns and verbs (2006)

Neuropsychological evidence regarding grammatical category suggests that deficits affecting verbs tend to localize differently from those affecting nouns, but previous functional imaging studies on healthy subjects fail to show consistent results that correspond to the clinical dissociation. In the current imaging study, we addressed this issue by manipulating not only the grammatical category but also the processing mode, using auditory presentation of Hebrew words. Subjects were presented with verbs and nouns and were instructed to make either a semantic decision ("Does the word belong to a given semantic category?") or a morphological decision ("Is the word inflected in plural?"). The results showed different patterns of activation across distinct regions of interest. With respect to grammatical category effects, we found increased activation for verbs in the posterior portion of the left superior temporal sulcus, left dorsal premotor area, and posterior inferior frontal gyrus. In each of these regions, the effect was sensitive to task. None of the ROIs showed noun advantage. With respect to task effects, we found a semantic advantage in left anterior inferior frontal gyrus, as well as in left posterior middle temporal gyrus. The results suggest that cerebral verb-noun dissociation is a result of localized and subtle processes that take place in a set of left frontal and temporal regions, and that the cognitive and neural processes involved in analyzing grammatical category depend on the lexical characteristics of the stimuli, as well as on task requirements. The discrepancy between functional imaging and patient data is also discussed.
Photoluminescence of MoS2 Prepared by Effective Grinding‐Assisted Sonication Exfoliation (2014)

Exfoliation of bulk molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) using sonication in appropriate solvent is a promising route to large‐scale preparation of few‐layered or monolayered crystals. Grinding‐assisted sonication exfoliation was used for preparing monolayered MoS 2 nanosheets from natural mineral molybdenite. By controlling the sonication time, larger crystallites could be further exfoliated to smaller as well as thinner nanosheets without damaging their structures. The concentration of 1.6 mg mL −1 of final solution could be achieved. Several microscopic techniques like scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy were employed to evaluate the exfoliation results. Strong photoluminescence with the peak centered at 440 nm was also observed in the resulting dispersion which included several small lateral‐sized (~3 nm) nanostructures.
Understanding and resolving the discrepancy between differential and actual minority carrier lifetime (2013)

Differential light-biased dynamic measurements of charge carrier recombination properties in semiconductors have long been known to yield only differential rather than actual recombination properties. Therefore, the determination of injection-dependent recombination properties from such measurements was previously found to require integration over the entire injection range. Recent investigations of the phase shift between a time-modulated irradiation of silicon samples and excess carrier density reveal a striking analogy to the above findings: the phase shift is greater than the actual effective carrier lifetime in the case of a positive derivative of lifetime with respect to excess carrier density, and vice versa. This work attempts to rearrange the mentioned previous findings in a quantitative theoretical description of light-biased dynamic measurements of effective carrier lifetime. Both light-biased differential lifetime measurements as well as harmonically time-modulated methods without additional bias light are shown to represent a limiting case in a general treatment of light-biased dynamic lifetime measurements derived here. Finally, we sketch a way to obtain actual recombination properties from differential measurements—referred to as a differential-to-actual (d2a) lifetime analysis, which does not require integration over the entire injection range.
Associations between ovarian hormones and emotional eating across the menstrual cycle: Do ovulatory shifts in hormones matter? (2019)

In aggregate, the current findings and past data suggest that hormone levels are more significant predictors of EE than pronounced hormonal changes across the menstrual cycle.

Estimation of crack width based on shape‐sensitive kernels and semantic segmentation (2019)

Cracks that develop in railway infrastructural components such as tunnel linings and track systems are not easy to detect on high-speed rail routes, since inspection time is limited during the daytime and visibility is very poor at night. Meanwhile, cracks to structures such as those above mentioned are strictly monitored and treated to prevent possible malfunction or accident. In this regard, a track measurement vehicle is normally deployed to image track components and measure geometric information. The main goal of the present study was to detect cracks in images and to simultaneously measure the maximum crack width by means of newly introduced deep learning technology. For this, a shape-sensitive kernel, that is, crack-like kernel, within a semantic segmentation framework and a modified deep layer model were proposed. In addition to the conventional statistical models such as accuracy and intersection over union, the predicted results of the proposed models were verified by considering the boxplot and root mean square errors of the estimated crack widths. According to the results, the proposed shape-sensitive kernel function was able to predict crack width more precisely by one or two pixels than the conventional semantic segmentation model. Future work will concentrate on the integration of the crack detection model with deterioration prediction of track geometry in order to enable systematic decision making for the predictive maintenance of railway systems.

Susceptibility of Baboon Aorta Elastin to Proteolysis (1990)

Elastin was purified from baboon aorta using Achromobacter collagenase and its susceptibility to proteolysis by various enzymes was studied. Human leukocyte elastase (HLE) hydrolysed baboon aortic elastin 8 times faster than human cathepsin G. Bovine chymotrypsin had virtually no activity against this substrate. The kinetic constants V and [S50] of aortic elastin hydrolysis by HLE (0.15 microM) were 0.00286 mg x ml-1 x min-1 and 0.158 mg x ml-1, respectively. One mg of this elastin could be saturated with 5.6 micrograms of HLE. As with elastins isolated from other sources, the hydrolysis of baboon aortic elastin by HLE was highly sensitive to ionic strength, and a biphasic effect was obtained with increasing NaCl concentrations. A nearly 2-fold stimulation of elastolysis was observed at a 0.15M NaCl concentration. Further increase in ionic strength led to a continuous decrease of the rate of elastolysis which paralleled the decrease of adsorption of elastase to baboon aortic elastin. Cathepsin G, but not bovine alpha-chymotrypsin, was able to stimulate the rate of hydrolysis of baboon aortic elastin by HLE. A 1.7 fold stimulation was observed for a 1:1 molar ratio of the two proteinases and rose to 2.1 for a HLE/Cat. G ratio equal to 8.
Exploration of Novel Inhibitors for Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase by 3D QSAR Modeling and Molecular Dynamics Simulation (2016)

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a cytoplasmic, non-receptor tyrosine kinase which is expressed in most of the hematopoietic cells and plays an important role in many cellular signaling pathways. B cell malignancies are dependent on BCR signaling, thus making BTK an efficient therapeutic target. Over the last few years, significant efforts have been made in order to develop BTK inhibitors to treat B-cell malignancies, and autoimmunity or allergy/hypersensitivity but limited success has been achieved. Here in this study, 3D QSAR pharmacophore models were generated for Btk based on known IC50 values and experimental energy scores with extensive validations. The five features pharmacophore model, Hypo1, includes one hydrogen bond acceptor lipid, one hydrogen bond donor, and three hydrophobic features, which has the highest correlation coefficient (0.98), cost difference (112.87), and low RMS (1.68). It was further validated by the Fisher's randomization method and test set. The well validated Hypo1 was used as a 3D query to search novel Btk inhibitors with different chemical scaffold using high throughput virtual screening technique. The screened compounds were further sorted by applying ADMET properties, Lipinski's rule of five and molecular docking studies to refine the retrieved hits. Furthermore, molecular dynamic simulation was employed to study the stability of docked conformation and to investigate the binding interactions in detail. Several important hydrogen bonds with Btk were revealed, which includes the gatekeeper residues Glu475 and Met 477 at the hinge region. Overall, this study suggests that the proposed hits may be more effective inhibitors for cancer and autoimmune therapy.
Energy-efficiency optimization of the high Power Amplifier for multicarrier systems: Analytical EVM derivation (2016)

The high Power Amplifier (PA) dominates the power consumption in LTE transceiver systems in macro base stations and requests focusing the energy efficiency improvements on this device. In this paper, the impact of the nonlinearities on the amplified multicarrier signal is analyzed considering both linearization and Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) reduction techniques. Therefore, we provide the expression of the Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) of the amplified signal using polynomial predistortion and clipping techniques. The EVM expression is a series expansion that depends on the Power Amplifier (PA) and predistortion coefficients, as well as, the PAPR and the average power of both input and clipped signals. The simulation results show that the proposed expression presents perfect accuracy. Moreover, theoretical analysis of the trade-off between the power amplifier linearity and efficiency is investigated considering the performance of the clipping and predistortion techniques. Therefore, an analytical expression which gives the optimal Input Back-Off (IBO) maximizing the PA efficiency, with respect to an EVM constraint and a given predistortion complexity, is provided. Based on different application scenarios and using a real power amplifier characteristic, it is demonstrated that significant energy efficiency improvement can be achieved when the IBO is appropriately adjusted.
MIMO System with Relative Phase Difference Time-Shift Modulation for Rician Fading Environment (2008)

Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems that realize high-speed data transmission with multiple antennas at both transmitter and receiver are drawing much attention. In line-of sight (LOS) environments, the performance of MIMO systems depends largely on the difference of the phase difference of direct paths from transmit antennas to each receive antenna. When the phase difference of direct paths are close to each other, the spatial division multiplexing (SDM) channels are not orthogonal to each other so signal detection becomes difficult. In this paper, we propose a MIMO system with relative phase difference time-shift modulation (RPDTM) in Rician fading environments. The proposed scheme transmits independent signals from each antenna at each time slot where the relative phase difference between signal constellations used by transmit antennas varies in a pre-determined pattern. This transmission virtually changes the phase difference of direct paths from transmit antennas to each receive antenna without lowering data rate and without knowledge of the channels. In addition, forward error correction coding (ECC) is applied to exploit the time slots where the receiver can detect the signals easily to improve the detection performance. If there are time slots where the receiver can separate the received signal, the receiver can decode the data by using the time slots and the correlation between data. From the results of computer simulation, we show that MIMO system with RPDTM can achieve the better bit error rate (BER) than the conventional MIMO system. We also show that the MIMO system with RPDTM is effective by about Rician factor K=10dB.
Filament-Specific Expression of a Cellulase Gene in the Dimorphic FungusUstilago maydis (1995)

The phytopathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis exists in a yeast-like haploid form and as a filamentous dikaryon. Only the dikaryon can infect corn plants. We have isolated a gene, egl1, that is not expressed in haploid cells but strongly induced in the filament. Molecular and biochemical analyses revealed that egl1 encodes a cellulase. By immunogold labelling, secreted protein could be detected at the hyphal tip. Mutants deleted for egl1 are viable and are affected neither in filament formation nor in pathogenic development under the conditions tested.
Von Neumann's Quintessential Message: Genotype + Ribotype = Phenotype (1998)

In this short article, we argue that von Neumann's quintessential message with respect to self-replicating automata is genotype + ribotype = phenotype. Self-replication occurs in analogy to nature: The description (genotype) written on the input tape is translated via a ribosome (ribotype) so as to create the offspring universal constructor (phenotype).

Abstract Dual‐wavelength clock recovery (CR) based on Stimulated Brillouin Scattering is realized. The maximum frequency spacing of two channels is theoretically analyzed and experimentally demonstrated. The total wavelength span of the CR scheme is investigated to be about 3.37 nm in experiment. Multiwavelength CR can be implemented within the span. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Semi-analytical model for linear modal coupling in few-mode fiber transmission (2012)

This paper proposes a method for the semi-analytical solution of the coupled linear differential equations that describe the linear modal coupling arising in few mode fibers (FMFs) due to waveguide imperfections. The semi-analytical solutions obtained can be used for the modification of the split step Fourier method to include the respective linear effects. Considering a fiber with six linearly polarized modes (or ten modes, taking into account the degenerate versions) the solutions obtained proved to be accurate when compared to the numerical solutions obtained through the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method.

A PML Utilizing k-Vector Information as Applied to the Whistler Mode in a Magnetized Plasma (2006)

The perfectly matched layer (PML) in its most current form has shortcomings in certain cases involving propagation in anisotropic media, such as the whistler mode in a magnetized plasma, for which the vector component normal to the PML of the group velocity vector and the k-vector are anti-parallel with each other. We present a new type of PML that utilizes information on the k-vector direction by applying relevant spatial derivatives to the PML update equations. Derived expressions for the numerical reflection coefficient are used to quantify the performance of the PML for any incident angle. Numerical reflection calculations as well as time domain calculations are performed for whistler mode propagation in a magnetized plasma. We demonstrate the stability of the new PML and find that for the reflection coefficient Gamma, values of up to -40 dB can be realized
Estimation of Treatment Effects from Combined Data: Identification versus Data Security (2015)

The security of sensitive individual data is a subject of indisputable importance. One of the major threats to sensitive data arises when one can link sensitive information and publicly available data. In this paper the authors demonstrate that even if the sensitive data are never publicly released, the point estimates from the empirical model estimated from the combined public and sensitive data may lead to a disclosure of individual information. Their theory builds on the work in Komarova, Nekipelov and Yakovlev (2011) where they analyze the individual disclosure that arises from the releases of marginal empirical distributions of individual data. The disclosure threat in that case is posed by the possibility of a linkage between the released marginal distributions. In this chapter, they analyze a different type of disclosure. Namely, they use the notion of the risk of statistical partial disclosure to measure the threat from the inference on sensitive individual attributes from the released empirical model that uses the data combined from the public and private sources. As the main example the authors consider a treatment effect model in which the treatment status of an individual constitutes sensitive information.

The actions of 5-hydroxytryptamine on the urinary bladder and on vesical autonomic ganglia in the cat. (1973)

An electrophysiological study was made of the effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on the urinary bladder and on vesical autonomic ganglia. The i.a. administration of 5-HT elicited an initial transient bladder contraction which was correlated with an excitation of vesical parasympathetic ganglia and a secondary, more prolonged contraction, which was due to a direct stimulation of the bladder smooth muscle. Both the discharge and the initial contraction were reversibly antagonized by picrotoxin whereas the secondary contraction was blocked by methysergide. 5-HT also had a depressant effect on the parasympathetic excitatory pathway to the bladder. This was apparent as a depression of ganglionic transmission and as a decrease in the amplitude of pelvicevoked contractions. In addition, 5-HT also depressed the postganglionic firing elicited reflexly by distention of the bladder or by the administration of an anticholinesterase agent. The inhibition was not antagonized by alpha or beta adrenergic blocking agents, methysergide, picrotoxin or morphine. The finding that 5-HT depressed the postganglionic discharge evoked by tetramethylammonium suggests that 5-HT had a direct depressant effect on the ganglion cells. 5-HT had no inhibitory effect on resting bladder activity. It is concluded, therefore, that 5-HT can influence bladder activity by acting at different sites and on different tryptaminergic receptors in the vesical neuromuscular apparatus: excitatory receptors in the vesical smooth muscle and excitatory and inhibitory receptors in parasympathetic ganglia.
HPLC assays of naringin and hesperidin in Chinese herbs and serum (2020)

High performance liquid chromatographic methods for simultaneous determination of naringin and hesperidin in Chinese herbs and serum were established. By using a LiChrospher RP-18 column, the herbal extracts were separated by gradient elution with water-acetonitrile (0-10 min 80:20, 14-25 min 63:37) and the serum sample was separated by isocratic elution with water-acetonitrile (80:20) as the mobile phase. Both methods employed a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min with detection at 270 nm. Ethylparaben and vanillin were used as the internal standards in herbal extracts and in serum, respectively. The precision and accuracy of these methods were satisfactory for intraday and interday assays. The recoveries of naringin and hesperidin were almost quantitative from serum and from herbs including Fructus Aurantii Immaturus, Fructus Citri Immaturus Exsiccatus and Pericarpium Citri Chachiensis.
Electrostatic and Sterical Stabilization of CuO Nanofluid Prepared by Vacuum Arc Spray Nanofluid Synthesis System (ASNSS) (2009)

Nanoparticles can be dispersed by different methods in order to completely utilize their unique material characteristics. This study uses a self-developed nanofluid synthesis system to produce a CuO nanofluid with good suspension stability and particle dispersion without additives. The prepared CuO nanofluid has an average particle size of 60 nm and a substantially improved size distribution. The effect of the electrical double layer on the stability of the prepared CuO nanofluid was experimentally assessed by studies using different concentrations and by rheological experiments. Furthermore, the relationships between the pH value and Zeta potential, hydrodynamic radius and Uv/Vis spectra of the prepared CuO nanofluids are also discussed. The experimental results show that the CuO nanofluid still maintains its Zeta potential at above 30 mV for longer than 6 months, indicating high suspension stability.
