GRDB (2013)

There is a growing interest in methods for analyzing data describing networks of all types, including biological, physical, social, and scientific collaboration networks. Typically the data describing these networks is observational, and thus noisy and incomplete; it is often at the wrong level of fidelity and abstraction for meaningful data analysis. This demonstration presents GrDB, a system that enables data analysts to write declarative programs to specify and combine different network data cleaning tasks, visualize the output, and engage in the process of decision review and correction if necessary. The declarative interface of GrDB makes it very easy to quickly write analysis tasks and execute them over data, while the visual component facilitates debugging the program and performing fine grained corrections.
Enzyme-enhanced electrochemical immunoassay for phenytoin (1988)

drug to be effective and safe, plasma levels must be between 5 and 20 mg/L Thus, the development of easy, real-time assays for this and other critical-level drugs is highly desirable. This paper also describes preliminary results on the electron-transfer mediation of ferrocene derivatives to polypyrrole-immobilized GOx. The goal of these experiments is to couple the polypyrrole-immobilized GOx to the ferrocene-DPH system to produce a reagentless electrochemical immunoassay sensor, so that easy, real-time determinations may be realized.
α,ω-Dihexylquaterthiophene:  A Second Thin Film Single-Crystal Organic Semiconductor (1998)

The thin film structure and hole mobility of 5,5'''-dihexylquaterthiophene are reported. Films sublimed onto Si/SiO2 or carbon grids held at 30−100 °C are single-crystal-like over tens of micrometers as shown by electron diffraction. The orientation has the long axis of the quaterthiophene core nearly perpendicular to the substrate. The mobility ranges from 0.05 to 0.23 cm2/Vs, depending on the deposition temperature, much higher than would be expected based on earlier thiophene oligomer data.
GyroPen: Gyroscopes for Pen-Input With Mobile Phones (2014)

We present GyroPen, a method to reconstruct the motion path for pen-like interaction from standard built-in sensors in modern smartphones. The key idea is to reconstruct a representation of the trajectory of the phone's corner that is touching a writing or drawing surface from the measurements obtained from the phone's gyroscopes and accelerometers. We propose to directly use the angular trajectory for this reconstruction, which removes the necessity for accurate absolute 3-D position estimation, a task that can be difficult using low-cost accelerometers. We connect GyroPen to a handwriting recognition system and perform two proof-of-concept experiments to demonstrate that the reconstruction accuracy of GyroPen is accurate enough to be a promising approach to text entry. In a first experiment, the average novice participant (n=10) was able to write the first word only 37 s after the starting to use GyroPen for the first time. In a second experiment, experienced users (n=2) were able to write at the speed of 3-4 s for one English word and with a character error rate of 18%.
Calculation of EHL traction with low-viscosity fluids by using an Eyring viscous solution. (1989)

Analysis is present of EHL traction with low-viscosity lubricating oils, which is the case encountered at higher temperatures. Extension is made of the approximate formula already derived by the authors, where it is assumed that viscosity, instead of viscoelasticity, predominates when the limiting Newtonian viscosity in an EHL film falls below a critical value, 105 Pas, and an Eyring viscous solution is employed. The rheological parameters representing the traction characteristics of an oil then become the effective viscosity-pressure coefficient and the representative stress, and they are expressed as functions of mean Hertzian pressure and bulk temperature. Calculated results are compared with experimental data obtained on a four-roller machine for two diesters showing close agreement.
Numerical computation of two-LO SIS mixer gain and noise (1989)

The authors present numerical calculations of the gain and noise of a two-LO (local oscillator) mixer based on an ideal SIS (superconductor-insulator-superconductor) IV curve. They demonstrate the phase-sensitive response of the mixer with two-LO pumping and present calculations of the noise for various DC bias conditions and embedding impedances. Preliminary results indicate that for certain DC bias conditions and signal terminations, the noise added to a signal by the two-LO mixer operated in the single-sideband mode can be a factor of 25 less than that added by a conventional single-sideband single-LO mixer.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
High-Level Aminoglycoside Resistance in the Beta-Hemolytic Group G Streptococcus Isolate BM2721 (1999)

The beta-hemolytic group G Streptococcus clinical isolate BM2721 was resistant to high levels of aminoglycosides by synthesis of AAC(6')-APH(2"), APH(3')-III, and ANT(6) modifying enzymes. The corresponding genes were found to be adjacent as the result of a recombination event between Tn4001 and Tn5405, two transposons originating in staphylococci.

Alkalinization of Intracuff Lidocaine Improves Endotracheal Tube-Induced Emergence Phenomena (2002)

Use of 40 mg of alkalinized lidocaine, rather than lidocaine or air, to fill the endotracheal tube cuff reduces the incidence of sore throat in the postoperative period. This approach also decreases hemodynamic effects, restlessness, dysphonia, and hoarseness.
Excessive daytime sleepiness: A challenge for the practising neurologist (2001)

The complaint of excessive daytime sleepiness, commonly encountered in neurological practice, may arise from a variety of disorders. The list of possibilities spans virtually every major area of medicine, neurology and psychiatry. A clear, detailed history is invaluable in negotiating these numerous diagnostic considerations; however, the symptom may be expressed in terms that do not directly denote somnolence (e.g. 'tiredness' or 'fatigue'). Accurate diagnosis is important, not only because of the negative impacts of sleepiness and its root causes on health and social function, but because excessive sleepiness is generally remediable with appropriate treatment. As our understanding of the neurological underpinnings of alertness and sleepiness deepens, improved treatment methods are bound to emerge.
Item Recommendation with Variational Autoencoders and Heterogeneous Priors (2018)

In recent years, Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) have been shown to be highly effective in both standard collaborative filtering applications and extensions such as incorporation of implicit feedback. We extend VAEs to collaborative filtering with side information, for instance when ratings are combined with explicit text feedback from the user. Instead of using a user-agnostic standard Gaussian prior, we incorporate user-dependent priors in the latent VAE space to encode users' preferences as functions of the review text. Taking into account both the rating and the text information to represent users in this multimodal latent space is promising to improve recommendation quality. Our proposed model is shown to outperform the existing VAE models for collaborative filtering (up to 29.41% relative improvement in ranking metric) along with other baselines that incorporate both user ratings and text for item recommendation.
Supporting System to Evaluate Physical Performance Based on fuzzy Reasoning (1996)

運動パフォーマンスは"その運動にかかわる動作を含む成果"であると定義されており, この運動パフォーマンスは二つの面から評価されている。一つは体力面からの評価で, 各体力要素(筋力, 筋持久力, 敏捷性, 平衡性, 瞬発力, 全身持久性等)を個々に測定し, その合計得点や標準化した合成変量で評価されている。もう一つは, 技術面からの評価で, スキルテストによって評価されている。しかし, 総合的な運動パフォーマンスは, それらの物理的指標を元に監督やコーチの経験則に従って評価されるというのが一般的である。人間の運動パフォーマンスを評価する上で, このような主観的判断に頼らなければならないのは, 運動パフォーマンスが人間本来に由来する曖昧さを内在しているという点と, また人間の運動が非常に複雑であるために, 厳密で意味のある記述が不可能であるという2点からである。本研究では, このような問題点を改善するために, 人間の運動パフォーマンスの評価に対して, ファジィ推論を用いた方法を提案する。ファジィ推論を用いることによって, 人間に内在する曖昧さを包含した形での評価が可能であり, また熟練指導者の経験則を用いて, 非線形な評価を再現性良く行うことが可能となった。

[Investigation of transcription factor Brachyury (T) expression in human normal and tumor tissues]. (2008)

By using computational differential display approach we identified a number of UniGene clusters which comprised 90% or more of ESTs from tumor cDNA libraries. One of them was cluster Hs.389457 which corresponds to the human gene Brachyury (T). That encodes a T-box gene family member transcription factor which is pivotal in early embryonal development. To experimentally verify our in silico findings of T expression, PCR was conducted using panels of cDNA from various human normal and tumor tissues. According to our results, Brachynry is expressed in tumors of the digestive tract, testis, ovary, breast, kidney, bladder, lung and brain tunic as well as in lymphomas. Weak amplification signals were picked up from normal tissues of small intestine, spleen and testis. Our results support earlier hypothesis on predominant tumor-related expression of Brachyury gene in adults.
A compact model for MM-wave transmission lines and interconnects on lossy CMOS substrates (2010)

A methodology for generating a scalable compact model for on-chip transmission lines and interconnects on lossy silicon substrate is presented. The model is demonstrated over 20-60 GHz frequency band using two types of transmission lines built in TSMC's 0.18 μm CMOS technology. Several Coplanar Waveguides (CPW) and Microstrip lines are designed with different lengths to verify the accuracy and scalability of the extracted model. The compact model shows an excellent agreement with measured data with maximum deviation in S <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">11</sub> magnitude and phase of 9.2% and 5.6%, respectively, and maximum deviation in S <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">21</sub> magnitude and phase of 10.1% and 6.6%, respectively. Compared to existing model extraction methodologies, the required time for generating the compact model and simulating transmission lines is reduced significantly. The generated models are fully compatible with all commercial circuit simulators.
Motion compression for telepresent walking in large-scale remote environments (2003)

Telepresent walking creates the sensation of walking through a target environment, which is not directly accessible to a human, e.g. because it is remote, hazardous, or of inappropriate scale. A mobile teleoperator replicates user motion and collects visual and auditory information from the target environment, which is then sent and displayed to the user. While walking freely about the user environment, the user perceives the target environment with the sensors of the teleoperator and feels as if walking through the target environment. Without additional processing of the user's motion data, the size of the target environment to be explored is limited to the size of the user environment. Motion compression extends telepresent walking to arbitrarily large target environments without making use of scaling or walking-in-place metaphors. Both travel distances and turning angles are mapped with ratio 1:1.

Whole‐heart chemical shift encoded water–fat MRI (2013)

CSE-SPGR is a promising technique for whole-heart water-fat imaging during free-breathing. The robust fat suppression in the water-only image could improve assessment of complex morphology at 3T and in the presence of off-resonance, with additional information contained in the fat-only image.
Experimental Verification of a Model of the Oscillating Limiter (1967)

Work done to verify the results of an analysis of the oscillating limiter published previously is reported upon in this paper. To this purpose experiments were made with an oscillating limiter, the characteristics of which are given, to check the nonlinear distortion produced on the baseband signals. The baseband equivalent circuit and nonlocking behavior of the oscillating limiter were also tested. Finally, a network for compensating the linear distortion produced in the message modulation by the oscillating limiter is shown, as well as experimental results.
Structure of the variable domain of human immunoglobulin κIVlight chain LEN (1996)

MACROMOLECULESshow only low activity.To fully understand the underlying structural principles behind functional activity shifts we have crystallized and solved the structures of all four hybrid proteins.Our results show that the overall polypeptide chain fold for these four hybrid proteins is similar to that of IL-8.However, also apparent are differential side chain interactions that appear to be con•elated to observed functional differences.This has lead to a hypothesis as to which portions of the surface of IL-8 are essential for the expression of its activity.
Efficacy and Safety of CH-1504, a Metabolically Stable Antifolate, in Patients with Active Rheumatoid Arthritis: Results of a Phase II Multicenter Randomized Study (2011)

Study on Designing User-Friendly Washing Machines for Single People in Their 20s and 30s: User Research on Goal Directed Design Process (2014)

This study aims to improve laundry experiences by designing user- friendly washing machines that are different from the existing small-sized domestic appliances. Recently, single households with members aged 20-30 have been identified as prominent consumers. Small-sized domestic appliances have been launched to satisfy their requirements. However, these small domestic appliances aim only to provide the same utilities on a smaller scale. In fact, single adults stated that laundry or cleaning tasks were one of their biggest anxieties. This is due to inadequate understanding by product developers about the needs of single people in their 20-30s. Based on user evaluations such as surveys, investigations, and in-depth interviews, we present design guidelines for single household washing machines.
Behavioral change stage might moderate the impact of multifaceted interventions on non‐attendance from medical care among patients with type 2 diabetes: The Japan Diabetes Outcome Intervention Trial‐2 Large‐Scale Trial 007 (J‐DOIT2‐LT007) (2023)

Among diabetes patients, the impact of multifaceted intervention on non-attendance from medical care might differ by the behavioral change stage.
Mechanism Design with Strategic Mediators (2016)

We consider the problem of designing mechanisms that interact with strategic agents through strategic intermediaries (or mediators), and investigate the cost to society due to the mediators’ strategic behavior. Selfish agents with private information are each associated with exactly one strategic mediator, and can interact with the mechanism exclusively through that mediator. Each mediator aims to optimize the combined utility of his agents, while the mechanism aims to optimize the combined utility of all agents. We focus on the problem of facility location on a metric induced by a publicly known tree. With nonstrategic mediators, there is a dominant strategy mechanism that is optimal. We show that when both agents and mediators act strategically, there is no dominant strategy mechanism that achieves any approximation. We, thus, slightly relax the incentive constraints, and define the notion of a two-sided incentive compatible mechanism. We show that the 3-competitive deterministic mechanism suggested by Procaccia and Tennenholtz [2013] and Dekel et al. [2010] for lines extends naturally to trees, and is still 3-competitive as well as two-sided incentive compatible. This is essentially the best possible (follows from Dekel et al. [2010] and Procaccia and Tennenholtz [2013]). We then show that by allowing randomization one can construct a 2-competitive randomized mechanism that is two-sided incentive compatible, and this is also essentially tight. This result also reduces a gap left in the work of Procaccia and Tennenholtz [2013] and Lu et al. [2009] for the problem of designing strategy-proof mechanisms for weighted agents with no mediators on a line. We also investigate a generalization of the preceding setting where there are multiple levels of mediators.

Front side degradation of silicon solar cells by rear side laser processing (2012)

We show an impact of rear side laser processing on the front surface recombination of thin silicon solar cells. The front surface recombination velocity of 45 µm thick back-contact back-junction monocrystalline silicon solar cells increases from 500 cm s -1 to 12000 cm s 1 by a rear side laser contact separation process. This increased recombination decreases the energy conversion efficiency from 18.8 % to 7.5 %. The internal quantum efficiency at short wavelength of 600 nm is also decreased from 0.88 to 0.33 confirming the increased front surface recombination by rear side laser processing.

Dynamics of HIV tropism under suppressive antiretroviral therapy: implications for tropism testing in subjects with undetectable viraemia (2010)

HIV tropism switches over time under suppressive ART are rare. There is a relatively good correlation between RNA and DNA tropism estimations using genotypic tests. Thus, HIV-1 tropism might confidently be examined either in older stored viraemic plasma specimens or in current proviral DNA samples.

On the sheep-goat effect as the manifestation of phase-dependent mind-matter modulation: A hypothesis (2020)

The sheep-goat effect cannot be explained without considering mind of specific states. This work speculates mind-matter interaction, as was inferred by many including Erwin Schrödinger, for entertaining analytically-flavored “phenomenological” interpretation of the sheep-goat effect. A fundamental construct of this theory is the operation of mind-matter events in a spatial-temporal-attentional domain, which reduces to the spatial-temporal domain wherein purely objective events are registered, at the vanishing of the effect of attention. Time-dependent Schrodinger’s equation is then treated as a lower-dimensional case of a higher-dimensional mind-matter-event equation elaborated in the spatial-temporal-attentional complex. The domain-coupling when modulated by the phase difference between the temporal and attentional dimensions, can enhance or inhibit the deviation of the event registration in the spatial-temporal domain from its baseline probability. The outcome is akin the sheep-goat effect.
An analysis of the membrane deflection experiment used in the investigation of mechanical properties of freestanding submicron thin films (2004)

Abstract In this paper we investigate, both experimentally and theoretically, the competition between different failure mechanisms (stretching, bending and curvature localization) in freestanding submicron thin films commonly used in micro-electromechanical systems. Microstructures made of elastic-brittle materials such as ultrananocrystalline diamond, diamond like carbon and silicon nitride, as well as elastic–plastic materials such as gold, aluminum, and copper, are tested by means of the membrane deflection experiment developed at Northwestern University. Evidence of competition between different failure modes has been found for the investigated elastic-brittle materials. The phenomenon is dependent on specimen size and shape. By contrast, in the case of elastic–plastic materials, failure due to stretching was found to be the dominant mechanism. An analytical model is proposed to rationalize the experimental data and to provide dimensionless parameters able to describe the competition between different failure mechanisms. These dimensionless parameters are particularly useful in the design of specimens employed in the MDE technique.
