Using Audio Fingerprinting for Duplicate Detection and Thumbnail Generation (2006)

Audio fingerprinting is a powerful tool for identifying file-based or streaming audio, using a database of fingerprints. The paper presents two new applications of audio fingerprinting: duplicate detection, whose goal is to identify duplicate audio clips in a set, even if they differ in compression quality or duration, and thumbnail generation, which aims to provide a representative short clip of a music track. Neither application requires an external database of fingerprints. Thanks to the robustness of the fingerprinting engine, both applications perform well; the duplicate detector has a false positive rate that is conservatively bounded above by 1% on a very large data set, and the thumbnail generator significantly outperforms using a fixed window.
Resource Allocation in Multi-Radio Multi-Channel Multi-Hop Wireless Networks (2008)

A joint congestion control, channel allocation and scheduling algorithm for multi-channel multi-interface multi- hop wireless networks is discussed. The goal of maximizing a utility function of the injected traffic, while guaranteeing queue stability, is defined as an optimization problem where the input traffic intensity, channel loads, interface to channel binding and transmission schedules are jointly optimized by a dynamic algorithm. Due to the inherent NP-Hardness of the scheduling problem, a simple centralized heuristic is used to define a lower bound for the performance of the whole optimization algorithm. The behavior of the algorithm for different numbers of channels, interfaces and traffic flows is shown through simulations.
Genome Sequence of Bivens Arm Virus, a Tibrovirus Belonging to the Species Tibrogargan virus ( Mononegavirales : Rhabdoviridae ) (2015)

The new rhabdoviral genus Tibrovirus currently has two members, Coastal Plains virus and Tibrogargan virus. Here, we report the coding-complete genome sequence of a putative member of this genus, Bivens Arm virus. A genomic comparison reveals Bivens Arm virus to be closely related to, but distinct from, Tibrogargan virus.
Effect of Process Parameters on Ultrasonic Separation of Dispersed Particles in Liquid (1999)

The effects of process parameters on ultrasonic separation of dispersed particles in a liquid using a standing-plane-wave field are discussed on the basis of experimental and theoretical results. Numerical solution of the equation of motion of a fine particle in a standing-wave field indicates that the inertia term can be neglected during conventional ultrasonic separation of fine particles. Analytical solutions for the particle speed, the position at which particles are coagulated, and the minimum power for separation, have then been derived to incorporate key process parameters. Experiments are carried out to observe transitional coagulation of polystyrene particles in an aqueous sugar solution with the incidence of standing ultrasonic plane wave, in terms of the density difference as well as the acoustic energy density exerted. Experimental results agree well with the theoretical predictions. The time required for coagulating and for the separation of particles is shortened in the case that particles coalesce.

Human autophagy geneATG16L1is post-transcriptionally regulated byMIR142-3p (2014)

Multiple genetic studies have implicated the autophagy-related gene, ATG16L1, in the pathogenesis of Crohn disease (CD). While CD-related research on ATG16L1 has focused on the functional significance of ATG16L1 genetic variations, the mechanisms underlying the regulation of ATG16L1 expression are unclear. Our laboratory has described that microRNAs (miRNAs), key regulators of gene expression, are dysregulated in CD. Here, we report miRNA-mediated regulation of ATG16L1 in colonic epithelial cells as well as Jurkat T cells. Dual luciferase reporter assays following the transfection of vectors containing the ATG16L1 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) or truncated 3'UTR fragments suggest that the first half of ATG16L1 3'UTR in the 5' end is more functional for miRNA targeting. Of 5 tested miRNAs with putative binding sites within the region, MIR142-3p, upon transient overexpression in the cells, resulted in decreased ATG16L1 mRNA and protein levels. Further observation demonstrated that the luciferase reporter vector with a mutant MIR142-3p binding sequence in the 3'UTR was unresponsive to the inhibitory effect of MIR142-3p, suggesting ATG16L1 is a gene target of MIR142-3p. Moreover, the regulation of ATG16L1 expression by a MIR142-3p mimic blunted starvation- and L18-MDP-induced autophagic activity in HCT116 cells. Additionally, we found that a MIR142-3p inhibitor enhanced starvation-induced autophagy in Jurkat T cells. Our study reveals MIR142-3p as a new autophagy-regulating small molecule by targeting ATG16L1, implying a role of this miRNA in intestinal inflammation and CD.

Localized suffix array and its application to genome mapping problems for paired-end short reads. (2009)

We introduce a new data structure, a localized suffix array, based on which occurrence information is dynamically represented as the combination of global positional information and local lexicographic order information in text search applications. For the search of a pair of words within a given distance, many candidate positions that share a coarse-grained global position can be compactly represented in term of local lexicographic orders as in the conventional suffix array, and they can be simultaneously examined for violation of the distance constraint at the coarse-grained resolution. Trade-off between the positional and lexicographical information is progressively shifted towards finer positional resolution, and the distance constraint is reexamined accordingly. Thus the paired search can be efficiently performed even if there are a large number of occurrences for each word. The localized suffix array itself is in fact a reordering of bits inside the conventional suffix array, and their memory requirements are essentially the same. We demonstrate an application to genome mapping problems for paired-end short reads generated by new-generation DNA sequencers. When paired reads are highly repetitive, it is time-consuming to naïvely calculate, sort, and compare all of the coordinates. For a human genome re-sequencing data of 36 base pairs, more than 10 times speedups over the naïve method were observed in almost half of the cases where the sums of redundancies (number of individual occurrences) of paired reads were greater than 2,000.
Via processing options for MCM-D fabrication: excimer laser ablation vs. reactive ion etching (2002)

The use of reactive ion etching and excimer laser ablation processes for the etching of vias through thick layers of dielectric (up to 25 mu m thick) in multichip module fabrication is evaluated. A comparison of possible masking schemes is presented. Typical etch results obtained by these techniques are shown and compared. A throughput analysis of these two via fabrication techniques for use in a high-volume multichip module substrate facility is presented. Results obtained suggest that laser processing is a viable alternative to reactive ion etching for multichip module substrate via fabrication.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
The architecture of yeast DNA polymerase zeta (927.2) (2014)

DNA polymerase ζ (Polζ) is a multi‐subunit enzyme that is specialized for the extension step of translesion DNA synthesis (TLS). Despite its central role in maintaining genome integrity, little is known about its overall architecture. Initially identified as a homodimer of the catalytic subunit Rev3 and the accessory subunit Rev7, yeast Polζ has recently been shown to also form a stable four‐subunit enzyme (Polζ‐d) upon incorporation of Pol31 and Pol32, the accessory subunits of yeast Polδ. To understand the 3‐D architecture and assembly of Polζ and Polζ‐d we employed electron microscopy (EM). We show here how the catalytic and accessory subunits of Polζ and Polζ‐d are organized relative to each other. In particular, we show that Polζ‐d has a bilobal architecture resembling the replicative polymerases, and that Pol32 lies in proximity to Rev7. Collectively, our study provides the first views of Polζ and Polζ‐d, and a structural framework for understanding their roles in DNA damage bypass.
Effect of NG-nitro-L-arginine on age-related changes of glutamate receptor systems and immunophilin in rats. (1997)

We investigated the effects of age and NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) on glutamate receptor systems and immunophilin in Fischer rat brain using receptor autoradiography. [3H]MK-801, [3H]glycine, sodium-dependent [3H]D-aspartate and [3H]FK-506 were used to label N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, glycine receptors, excitatory amino acid transport sites and FK-506 binding proteins (FKBP), respectively. [3H]Glycine and sodium-dependent [3H]D-aspartate binding significantly reduced in the cerebral cortex, striatum, hippocampus, thalamus, substantia nigra and cerebellum of aged (24-month-old) rats in comparison with adult (6-month-old) animals. In contrast, [3H]MK-801 and [3H]FK-506 binding showed no significant changes in most brain regions of aged rats. Intraperitoneal chronic treatment with L-NAME (5 mg/kg, once a day for 4 weeks) showed no conspicuous changes in these binding sites in most brain areas of aged rats. In the cerebellum, however, this treatment showed a significant change in both [3H]MK-801 and sodium-dependent [3H]D-aspartate binding in aged rats. These results demonstrate that glycine receptors and excitatory amino acid transport sites are more susceptible to aging processes than NMDA receptors and FKBP. Furthermore, our findings may suggest a possible role of nitric oxide in the regulation of cerebellum during aging processes.
AN OASIS OF RESISTANT ESCHERICHIA COLI IN ANIMALS AT AN INNER- CITY ZOO (2023)

Findings: During the median follow-up of 257 days, 608 (0.5%) events were observed among exposed and 1,864 (0.4%) among unexposed.Incident-diabetes rate/10 0,0 0 0 person-years was significantly higher among the exposed group vs. unexposed group (672.2 vs 508.7 respectively).The risk of incident diabetes was higher among those with COVID-19 infection (HR = 1.16, 95% CI:1.06-1.28),and among males (aHR = 1.22,95%CI:1.06-1.40).The risk of diabetes was much higher among people with more severe disease (HRICU = 3.32, 95%CI:1.99 -5.54; HRhospitalized = 1.97, 95%CI:1.33 -2.93).Conclusion: SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with higher risk of diabetes overall and among males.Severe SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with higher risk of diabetes among both males and females.Furthermore, infection with SARS-CoV-2 could contribute to 3-5% increase in burden of diabetes, which will result in substantial number of diabetes cases with impact on healthcare needs for management of diabetes and its complications in addition to health of affected population.
Bangladesh (2006)

The rate of growth of GDP in Bangladesh has picked up in recent years. During the period 1980–1990, it grew at an average annual rate of 3.7 per cent, barely exceeding the population growth rate; but subsequently, during the period 1999–2004, it exceeded an average annual rate of 5 per cent, to reach about $54 billion in the fiscal year 2003–2004. The investment/GDP ratio increased from 17 per cent to 23 per cent; within this, the ratio of public investment to GDP remained stagnant, at around 7 per cent, while that of private investment increased from 10 per cent to 17 per cent.
Ionic Liquid as Solvent for the Synthesis and Crystallization of a Coordination Polymer:  (EMI)[Cd(BTC)] (EMI = 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium, BTC = 1,3,5-Benzenetricarboxylate) (2006)

An ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, is used as reaction medium for the synthesis and crystallization of a coordination polymer, (EMI)[Cd(BTC)] (1) (EMI = 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium, BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate), which forms an anionic three-dimensional framework with 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cations located in the void space.
What makes single-helical metamaterials generate “pure” circularly polarized light? (2012)

Circular polarizers with left-handed helical metamaterials can transmit right-handed circularly polarized (RCP) light with few losses. But a certain amount of left-handed circularly polarized (LCP) light will occur in the transmitted light, which is the noise of the circular polarizer. Therefore, we defined the ratio of the RCP light intensity to the LCP light intensity as the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio. In our previous work, it's found that circular polarizers with multi-helical metamaterials have two orders higher S/N ratios than that of single-helical metamaterials. However, it has been a great challenge to fabricate such multi-helical structures with micron or sub-micron feature sizes. Is it possible for the single-helical metamaterials to obtain equally high S/N ratios as the multi-helical ones? To answer this question, we systematically investigated the influences of structure parameters of single-helical metamaterials on the S/N ratios using the finite-different time-domain (FDTD) method. It was found that the single-helical metamaterials can also reach about 30dB S/N ratios, which are equal to the multi-helical ones. Furthermore, we explained the phenomenon by the antenna theory and optimized the performances of the single-helical circular polarizers.
An anhydride-acid compound for cross-linking epoxy resin systems (1981)

Modified dicarboxylic acid anhydride compounds have been made which contain free carboxylic acid groups. These compounds cross-link with epoxy resins giving low exotherms, longer working times and produce strong ductile plastics. The modified compound is made by adding water to the liquid dicarboxylic acid anhydride methyl tetrahydrophthalic anhydride with a small amount of catalyst aod heating. The amount of water added is selected to obtain the desired anhydride to acid ratio. Catalysis of the systems is accomplished by either precatalysis of the resin, by additions of a conventional catalyst or by addition of a suitable catalyst dwing the manufacture of the modified dicarboxylic acid anhydride compound. Strengths of 14000-15000 psi with elongations of 7·9% have been obtained using a cure schedule of 100°C for six hours and 160°C for eight hours. When stoichiometrie quantities of phthalic anhydride were included in the composition, strengths up to 17000 psi have been obtained. The use of the anhydride-acid compound results in generally lower heat deflection temperatures than nadic methyl anhydride. Parts have been made using DG EBA, Novolac or alicyclic epoxy resin systems, by filament winding, wet lay up and preimpregnation, each using vacuum and pressure curing technique.
Correlations between Serum Ami‐ and Nortriptyline Concentrations and Psychomotor Performance (1977)

Correlations of serum nortriptyline (NT) and amitriptyline (AT) levels with psychomotor performance choice reaction performance, eye-hand coordination, and divided attention was studied in two experiments each with 20 healthy subjects. In the first experiment serum NT level was measured with an isotope derivative method after treatment for 14 days with NT. In the second trial plasma AT and NT concentrations were measured with gas-chromatography after treatment for 14 days with AT. No linear correlations between the levels of the antidepressants and performance variables were found. Low levels of NT (less than 50 ng/ml) tended to shorten reaction time, and intermediate levels (50--80 ng/ml) to prolong it, when compared with the reaction times during placebo. The correlation between serum NT levels and the increase of the tyramine dose in the tyramine pressor test was not significant. A new assay method for AT and NT is presented.
Software and Culture (2011)

Software applications are designed around user interaction. One interaction component is the user interface; the other deeper components represent the applications’ logic and core functionality. Internationalization architectures recognize the need for localizing user interfaces to particular cultures. We continue the discussion on culture and software focusing on the software core rather than the user interface. This core corresponds to deep culture as opposed to the surface cultural manifestations embedded in the user interface. We argue here that deep culture can be embedded into application software in a modular way.
Adiabatic scanning calorimetry of the nematic-smectic A1and the smectic A1–smectic A transitions in frustrated smectic mixtures at low temperatures (1987)

Abstract Phase diagram results and high resolution adiabatic scanning calorimetric data are presented for several binary mixtures of 4-cyanocyclohexyl-4'-n-butyl-cyclohexane and 1 amino-9-fluorenone showing smectic A1 and smectic Ã phases at low temperatures. Contrary to present theoretical expectations and experimental evidence for other systems, we find strongly first order nematic to smectic A1 transitions with a latent heat of about 2 kJ/mol for all the mixtures investigated. The enthalpy change related to the smectic A1 to smectic Ã transitions is two orders of magnitude smaller and corresponds most likely to a fluctuation induced first order transition.
EXPRESSION OF MYC FAMILY ONCOGENES IN PRIMARY HUMAN TESTICULAR CANCER (1989)

In order to understand the role of myc family genes (c-myc, N-myc and L-myc) in the development and progression of human testicular cancer, we have analyzed the expression of myc family genes in three different types of primary human testicular cancer (seminoma, embryonal carcinoma and teratocarcinoma) and normal testis using Northern blot analysis. Expression of N-myc gene, which is usually limited in the neoplasms derived from neuroectoderm, was detected in seven out of ten cases of seminomas and two out of two cases of embryonal carcinomas. Gene amplification was not observed in these cases. Expression of N-myc gene was not detected in teratocarcinomas and normal testes. Expression of c-myc gene was observed in seminomas, embryonal carcinomas, teratocarcinomas and normal testes, but specific expression of c-myc gene was not seen in these cancers and normal testes. Expression of L-myc gene was not detected in all cases examined in our studies. Since N-myc gene expression was observed only in undifferentiated testicular neoplasm, such as seminoma and embryonal carcinoma, its expression may be positively related to the development and progression of special types of human testicular cancer.
A lightweight security primitive using laser-based fault injection (2014)

Security and low power are essential requirements for sensor networks. In order to meet these requirements we have proposed a new type of lightweight security primitive using laser-based fault injection. The essential idea is to use lasers to cut the wires in the circuit layouts, thus to intentionally introduce faults in circuits. We have the following key observations: (1) Large VLSI ICs with partial faults can produce highly unpredictable outputs. (2) Faults in different positions in circuits can cause huge difference in outputs alternation. Therefore, we take advantage of the excellent output randomness of the circuit after fault-injection and directly use it as a security primitive. Compared to the traditional security primitive, e.g., PUF, our proposed laser-based security primitive is robust and resiliency against conditions of operations. More importantly, it employs very low power consumption, therefore providing an ideal platform for sensor networks. We compare the fault injection on standard modules, such as adders, multipliers, and XOR networks and further propose the best architecture. Our statistical tests indicate that by using the laser-based fault injection, lightweight security primitives for sensor networks with small footprint and low energy can be created.
Formylation of tetrahydrofolate by formyl phosphate (1990)

Formyl phosphate is the putative intermediate in the formylation of tetrahydrofolate (THF) catalyzed by N10-formylTHF synthetase. In this study the non-enzymic reaction between formyl phosphate and THF was examined at 5 degrees C. 1H-NMR, HPLC and kinetic analysis of the proton-catalyzed conversion of the product to N5,10-methenylTHF were used to identify the product. In contrast to the enzyme reaction, which produces N10-formylTHF, N5-formylTHF was the only formylated THF derivative formed. The reaction was conducted at pH values of 3, 5, and 7, with the highest yield being obtained at pH 5 (64-85%, based on THF). The enzyme, therefore, changes the regioselectivity of this reaction by increasing the reactivity of the 10-nitrogen and either decreasing the reactivity of the 5-nitrogen or limiting its accessibility to formyl phosphate. 2-Mercaptoethanol, present in the reaction mixture to protect THF from O2, was also formylated by formyl phosphate, at the oxygen position.
Fuzzy rule-based expert system for power system fault diagnosis (1997)

The paper demonstrates a novel component oriented fuzzy expert system (COFES) developed in PROLOG for power system fault diagnosis. This ‘expert system’ assesses faults on power systems using intelligent techniques that can take account of bad/missed SCADA data. Incorrect operation of protective relays and/or circuit breakers during single as well as multiple faults and corresponding uncertain incoming information render proper fault diagnosis a very involved task. To handle these uncertainties and rank various fault hypotheses a fuzzy signal model based on fuzzy information theory has been developed. The model measures degree of correctness of received and nonreceived input data. The proposed method incorporates fuzzy symbol classification through an enhanced knowledge-base which includes network model, predefined subnetworks, relaying schemes and fuzzy diagnostic rules. This expert system has been applied to a sample power system. The results obtained along with their evaluations are completely reported.
STOIC: state assignment based on output/input functions (1993)

A finite-state-machine (FSM) synthesis procedure, specifically aimed at using primary inputs and primary output functions as state variables, is proposed. The number of next-state functions that have to be implemented is thus reduced, potentially reducing the area of the synthesized circuit. Also, as more of the state variables are directly observable (the primary outputs used as state variables), and directly controllable (the primary inputs used as state variables) the testability of the implementation is increased. Experimental results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the procedure in reducing area.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
