Techno-economic evaluation of broadband access alternatives for ip services (2004)

This paper deals with a techno - economic evaluation of broadband upgrade strategy for IP services. This scenario is focused on the FTTcab/VDSL architecture with ATM versus Ethernet approaches. Target market is residential customers and small business customers in urban and dense urban areas. Installed First Cost (IFC) and Net present Value (NPV) as main techno - economic results are discussed regarding common assumptions. The results show that the choice of technology (Ethernet or ATM) has almost no effect on the cost level and profitability of the cases.
3A1-U01 Development of the mobile photography robot using RTM(RT Middleware and Open Systems) (2014)

For starting new robot business, a lot of resource is necessary to develop a robot system. But it is difficult to expect the effect of the robot without a product robot. So we propose the rapid prototyping of a robot using RT middleware which makes the prototype robot development easy. And it enables to clear the robot effect and problems in a short time. In this research, we developed the system of "Mobile photography robot" as an example. The validity of the RT middleware system was confirmed by using different two robots.
Augmenting Statistical Machine Translation with Subword Translation of Out-of-Vocabulary Words (2018)

Most statistical machine translation systems cannot translate words that are unseen in the training data. However, humans can translate many classes of out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words (e.g., novel morphological variants, misspellings, and compounds) without context by using orthographic clues. Following this observation, we describe and evaluate several general methods for OOV translation that use only subword information. We pose the OOV translation problem as a standalone task and intrinsically evaluate our approaches on fourteen typologically diverse languages across varying resource levels. Adding OOV translators to a statistical machine translation system yields consistent BLEU gains (0.5 points on average, and up to 2.0) for all fourteen languages, especially in low-resource scenarios.
Dynamic simulation of the tripod sliding universal joint based on virtual prototype (2008)

A virtual prototype was established in ADAMS software environment in terms of the geometrical model of the tripod sliding universal joint set up with CAD software of Pro/Engineer. Dynamic properties thereof were then observed and the load curves of the main elements were obtained under practical operating conditions. The gained results are important reference data for the structure design and optimization thereof.
Synthesizing degree of polarization uniformity from non-polarization sensitive OCT by convolutional neural network (2022)

In this research, we demonstrated a CNN-based DOPU estimation algorithm without polarization-sensitive OCT signals. The CNN was trained with pairs of retinal OCT (input) and DOPU (teaching) images. The recall and precision of RPE abnormal appearances between true DOPU and synthesized DOPU of pathological eyes were calculated. For normal eyes, the grader evaluated the soundness of the RPE appearance for true DOPU and synthesized DOPU. The recalls are relatively good (0.74-0.95), while the precisions highly depend on the types of abnormalities (0.37-0.98). Five RPE abnormalities are found in synthesized DOPU within 25 synthesized DOPU B-scans while there is no abnormality in the true DOPU.
Data-driven process monitoring method based on dynamic component analysis (2011)

A novel data-driven process monitoring method based on dynamic independent component analysis-principle component analysis (DICA-DPCA) is proposed to compensate for shortcomings in the conventional component analysis based monitoring methods. The primary idea is to first augment the measured data matrix to take the process dynamic into account. Then perform independent component analysis (ICA) and principle component analysis (PCA) on the augmented data to capture both the non-Gaussian and Gaussian process information. Finally, a combined monitoring statistic is proposed by support vector data description (SVDD) with its control limit being determined by bootstrap quantile estimation method to lessen monitoring workload. The Tennessee Eastman process is used to demonstrate the improved monitoring performance of the proposed mechanism in comparison with existing component analysis based monitoring methods, including PCA, ICA, ICA-PCA, dynamic PCA, and dynamic ICA.
The Control of the Cholesteric Pitch by Some Azo Photochemical Chiral Switches (2004)

Abstract A few chiral azo compounds, which undergo reversible photochemical switching, are presented. Of these, the most interesting contain the binaphthyl moiety and belong to the C 2 (derivatives 1 and 2 ) or C 1 symmetry group (derivatives 3 and 4 ). These binaphthyl compounds display intense CD and high β values. Photochemical switching has profound effects on both the CD and β values of these compounds; in the case of compound 3 , the sign of β changes upon isomerisation. Compound 2 has, to our knowledge, the highest β of the switches reported in the literature and also seems the most interesting owing to its fast response to photochemical stimuli. Nematic phases can be transformed into cholesteric phases with reflection bands in the visible region by doping with reasonable amounts of 1 and 2 . The reflection colours can be changed reversibly by photoisomerisation of the switches. Thermal reversion of the colourless UV photostationary state to the green isomeric EE state or to intermediate coloured states is temperature dependent. This can allow the thermal history of a sample to be traced.
RSS and Motor Directional Analysis Modelling: The Effect of Local Doglegs on RIH of Completions and Casing (2020)

Abstract Rotary steerable systems (RSS) and steerable motors pose their own unique challenges when modelling the bottomhole assembly (BHA) directional behavior. This paper aims to present a methodology that allows the anticipation of problems such as mechanically stuck pipe or lock up situations when running in hole casing or completion strings. The methodology consists of 3 tasks: evaluation of intermediate doglegs and wellbore tortuosity using a unique Rock-Bit-BHA analysis, modelling of the casing deformation including potential centralization and then modelling the run in hole (RIH) of the completion. The directional capabilities of a BHA are affected significantly by the selection of the drilling bit, type of directional drilling driving system and the type of formation. The resulting trajectory can be either very smooth or very tortuous with significant additional local doglegs. The deformation of the casing as well as the completion post buckling analysis is completed using a robust and field validated 3D stiff string Torque &amp; Drag &amp; Buckling model. This methodology can be applied before, during or after the well has been drilling. Used before or during the well construction process, an indication can be given as to whether the casing or completion can reach total depth (TD) using planned or actual data. Used after a lockup or stuck pipe incident, the methodology can give an indication if tortuosity was a contributing factor. Various field cases are presented and clearly show the benefit of the methodology including post-analysis of stuck standalone-screen (SAS) completion string in complex 3D drain and pre-analysis of completion run in hole (RIH) targeting a specific drain. Correctly evaluating the risk of BHA, casing and/or completion strings getting stuck or locked-up when RIH can ultimately provide a template for ultimate reduction of non productive time (NPT). This modeling results has been verified and discussed in the field.

An Electronic System for the Contactless Reading of ECG Signals (2017)

The aim of this work is the development of a contactless capacitive sensory system for the detection of (Electrocardiographic) ECG-like signals. The acquisition approach is based on a capacitive coupling with the patient body performed by electrodes integrated in a front-end circuit. The proposed system is able to detect changes in the electric charge related to the heart activity. Due to the target signal weakness and to the presence of other undesired signals, suitable amplification stages and analogue filters are required. Simulated results allowed us to evaluate the effectiveness of the approach, whereas experimental measurements, recorded without contact to the skin, have validated the practical effectiveness of the proposed architecture. The system operates with a supply voltage of ±9 V with an overall power consumption of about 10 mW. The analogue output of the electronic interface is connected to an ATmega328 microcontroller implementing the A/D conversion and the data acquisition. The collected data can be displayed on any multimedia support for real-time tracking applications.

Context-aware vehicular cyber-physical systems with cloud support: architecture, challenges, and solutions (2014)

The advances in wireless communication techniques, mobile cloud computing, and context- aware technologies boost a growing interest in the design, development, and deployment of vehicular networks for emerging applications. This leads to an increasing evolutionary tendency to change from vehicular networks toward cloud-assisted context-aware vehicular cyberphysical systems. In this article, we first propose a multi-layered context-aware architecture and introduce two crucial service components, vehicular social networks and context-aware vehicular security. Then we propose an application scenario regarding the context-aware dynamic parking services by illuminating the cloud-assisted architecture and logic flow. Finally, we investigate the challenges and possible solutions, including context-aware safety hazard prediction, context-aware dynamic vehicle routing, and context-aware vehicular clouds.

Shimmer (2018)

Shimmer is a collection of poems that explores the unfixed nature of self-construction through the complications of intersectionality. Throughout the text, the speaker, possessing multiple positions that share the locus of the singular unified body, navigates existing power structures in various publics in which bodies and cultures are read and deemed legible or illegible to situated hegemonic social structures. Through confessional and lyric strategies, the speaker reflects on the rituals that reify culturally informed social contracts within diverse publics.
Automatic Anterior Chamber Angle Assessment for HD-OCT Images (2011)

Angle-closure glaucoma is a major blinding eye disease and could be detected by measuring the anterior chamber angle in the human eyes. High-definition OCT (Cirrus HD-OCT) is an emerging noninvasive, high-speed, and high-resolution imaging modality for the anterior segment of the eye. Here, we propose a novel algorithm which automatically detects a new landmark, Schwalbe's line, and measures the anterior chamber angle in the HD-OCT images. The distortion caused by refraction is corrected by dewarping the HD-OCT images, and three biometric measurements are defined to quantitatively assess the anterior chamber angle. The proposed algorithm was tested on 40 HD-OCT images of the eye and provided accurate measurements in about 1 second.
Location of the cis-acting auxin-responsive region in the promoter of the par gene from tobacco mesophyll protoplasts. (1990)

We have isolated a genomic clone of an auxin-regulated par gene, which is expressed during the transition from G0 phase to S phase in the early stage of tobacco mesophyll protoplasts cultured in vitro, from a tobacco genomic library using the par cDNA as a probe. When a chimeric gene, in which a reporter gene for bacterial beta-glucuronidase (GUS) was placed downstream of the 5' flanking sequences of the par gene, was introduced into tobacco mesophyll protoplasts by electroporation, the chimeric gene elicited auxin-regulated expression of GUS activity. Because deletion of a 111-base-pair (bp) direct repeat in the 5' flanking sequences of the par gene abolished the auxin-induced GUS activity, it is deduced that in the 111-bp direct repeat of the par gene promoter is localized an auxin-responsive region, which regulates auxin-mediated activation of transcription.
Studies on the mechanism of oxidative phosphorylation: effects of specific F0 modifiers on ligand-induced conformation changes of F1. (1985)

Aurovertin is a fluorescent antibiotic that binds to the catalytic beta subunits of the mitochondrial F1-ATPase and inhibits ATP synthesis and hydrolysis. ATP, ADP, and membrane energization in submitochondrial particles (SMP) alter the fluorescence of F1-bound aurovertin. These fluorescence changes are considered to be in response to the conformation changes of F1-ATPase. This paper shows that the ATP-induced fluorescence change of aurovertin bound to SMP or complex V (purified ATP synthase complex F0-F1) is inhibited when these preparations are pretreated with oligomycin or N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). This inhibition is not seen with isolated F1-ATPase. These and other results have suggested that modifications of the DCCD-binding protein in the membrane sector (F0) of the ATP synthase complex are communicated to F1, thereby altering the binding characteristics of ATP to the beta subunits. By analogy, it is proposed that modifications (e.g., protonation/deprotonation) of the DCCD-binding protein effected by protonic energy alter the conformation of F1 and bring about the substrate/product binding changes that appear to be essential features of the mechanism and regulation of oxidative phosphorylation.
Binuclear C^C* Cyclometalated Platinum(II) NHC Complexes with Bridging Amidinate Ligands (2016)

Binuclear C^C* cyclometalated NHC platinum(II) compounds with bridging amidinate ligands were synthesized to evaluate their photophysical properties. Their three-dimensional structures were determined by a combination of 2D NMR experiments, mass spectrometry, DFT calculations, and solid-state structure analysis. The bridging amidinate ligands enforce short distances between the platinum centers of the two cyclometalated structures, which gives rise to extraordinary photophysical properties.
CHIME/FRB Discovery of Eight New Repeating Fast Radio Burst Sources (2019)

Abstract We report on the discovery of eight repeating fast radio burst (FRB) sources found using the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) telescope. These sources span a dispersion measure (DM) range of 103.5–1281 pc cm −3 . They display varying degrees of activity: six sources were detected twice, another three times, and one 10 times. These eight repeating FRBs likely represent the bright and/or high-rate end of a distribution of infrequently repeating sources. For all sources, we determine sky coordinates with uncertainties of ∼10′. FRB 180916.J0158+65 has a burst-averaged DM = 349.2 ± 0.3 pc cm −3 and a low DM excess over the modeled Galactic maximum (as low as ∼20 pc cm −3 ); this source also has a Faraday rotation measure (RM) of −114.6 ± 0.6 rad m −2 , which is much lower than the RM measured for FRB 121102. FRB 181030.J1054+73 has the lowest DM for a repeater, 103.5 ± 0.3 pc cm −3 , with a DM excess of ∼70 pc cm −3 . Both sources are interesting targets for multi-wavelength follow-up due to their apparent proximity. The DM distribution of our repeater sample is statistically indistinguishable from that of the first 12 CHIME/FRB sources that have not yet repeated. We find, with 4 σ significance, that repeater bursts are generally wider than those of CHIME/FRB bursts that have not repeated, suggesting different emission mechanisms. Many of our repeater events show complex morphologies that are reminiscent of the first two discovered repeating FRBs. The repetitive behavior of these sources will enable interferometric localizations and subsequent host galaxy identifications.
Recombinant Adenovirus Delivery of Calreticulin–ESAT‐6 Produces an Antigen‐Specific Immune Response but no Protection Against a Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Challenge (2011)

Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) has failed to efficaciously control the worldwide spread of the disease. New vaccine development targets virulence antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis that are deleted in Mycobacterium bovis BCG. Immunization with ESAT-6 and CFP10 provides protection against M. tuberculosis in a murine infection model. Further, previous studies have shown that calreticulin increases the cell-mediated immune responses to antigens. Therefore, to test whether calreticulin enhances the immune response against M. tuberculosis antigens, we fused ESAT-6 to calreticulin and constructed a recombinant replication-deficient adenovirus to express the resulting fusion protein (AdCRT-ESAT-6). The adjuvant effect of calreticulin was assayed by measuring cytokine responses specific to ESAT-6. Recombinant adenovirus expressing the fusion protein produced higher levels of interferon-γ and tumour necrosis factor-α in response to ESAT-6. This immune response was not improved by the addition of CFP-10 to the CRT-ESAT-6 fusion protein (AdCRT-ESAT-6-CFP10). Mice immunized with these recombinant adenoviruses did not decrease the mycobacterial burden after low-dose aerosol infection with M. tuberculosis. We conclude that calreticulin can be used as an adjuvant to enhance the immune response against mycobacterial antigens, but it is not enough to protect against tuberculosis.
Intercensal population change in the Belfast urban area 1971-91: the correlates of population increase and decrease in a divided society (1997)

"This paper analyses population change in the Belfast Urban Area (BUA) [of Northern Ireland] between 1971 and 1991 in its socio-economic context to understand the nature of urban social change. Although considering religious factors as a cause of population change, the research compares the BUA with other urban areas and relates developments in Belfast to some literature on sociospatial polarisation and the ¿underclass'.... The results suggest that population change is not driven by explicitly religious factors, the relationship between religion and socio-economic well-being has changed, and that changes in religious mixing and segregation occur in many contexts. The BUA is like other urban areas, albeit with unique features arising from the influence of religion."
Quantifying The Performance Of Imaging Systems (1985)

A figure of merit for characterizing the performance of medical imaging systems is suggested. It depends on statistical properties of the object and noise and on the transfer matrix specifying the imaging system.
A calibration model for fingerprint sensor interoperability (2006)

Biometric sensor interoperability refers to the ability of a system to compensate for the variability introduced in the biometric data of an individual due to the deployment of different sensors. We demonstrate that a simple non-linear calibration scheme, based on Thin Plate Splines (TPS), is sufficient to facilitate sensor interoperability in the context of fingerprints. In the proposed technique, the variation between the images acquired using two different sensors is modeled using non-linear distortions. Experiments indicate that the proposed calibration scheme can significantly improve inter-sensor matching performance.
[Anemia syndrome in patients with chronic renal insufficiency on peritoneal dialysis treated with recombinant erythropoietin]. (2002)

The paper presents the results of the studies of erythrocytic and iron metabolism parameters in the course of treatment with recombinant erythropoietin (RE) and iron preparations in 60 patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) on peritoneal dialysis (PD) aged 20 to 75 years. Pretreatment iron deficiency in CRF patients on PD persisted to the end of the third observation period. Hyperferritinemia registered in CRF patients on PD with frequent peritonitis may be considered as a result of active ferritin synthesis by the cells of the system of mononuclear phagocytes in response to inflammation. The only parameter indicating the presence of iron deficiency seems to be the percentage of hypochrome erythrocytes indirectly evidencing for insufficient supply and iron utilization in bone marrow. Pathogenetic mechanisms of anemia development in CRF patients on PD may be both low EP and high levels of proinflammatory cytokines as well as oversecretion of ferritin by activated by monocytes/macrophages ferrin, promoting apoptosis of late erythropoiesis precursors, development of ineffective erythropoiesis and having a suppressive effect on erythropoiesis cell precursors.
Soils of western Wright Valley, Antarctica (2009)

Abstract Western Wright Valley, from Wright Upper Glacier to the western end of the Dais, can be divided into three broad geomorphic regions: the elevated Labyrinth, the narrow Dais which is connected to the Labyrinth, and the North and South forks which are bifurcated by the Dais. Soil associations of Typic Haplorthels/Haploturbels with ice-cemented permafrost at &lt; 70cm are most common in each of these geomorphic regions. Amongst the Haplo Great Groups are patches of Salic and Typic Anhyorthels with ice-cemented permafrost at &gt; 70 cm. They are developed in situ in strongly weathered drift with very low surface boulder frequency and occur on the upper erosion surface of the Labyrinth and on the Dais. Typic Anhyorthels also occur at lower elevation on sinuous and patchy Wright Upper III drift within the forks. Salic Aquorthels exist only in the South Fork marginal to Don Juan Pond, whereas Salic Haplorthels occur in low areas of both South and North forks where any water table is&gt; 50 cm. Most soils within the study area have an alkaline pH dominated by Na + and Cl - ions. The low salt accumulation within Haplorthels/Haploturbels may be due to limited depth of soil development and possibly leaching.
