Deriving reservoir operating rules via fuzzy regression and ANFIS. (2003)

The methods of ordinary least-squares regression (OLSR), fuzzy regression (FR), and adaptive network fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) are compared in inferring operating rules for a reservoir operations problem. Dynamic programming (DP) is used to provide the input-output data set to be used by OLSR, FR, and ANFIS models. The coefficients of an FR model are found by solving a linear programming (LP) problem. A trained fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is also used to derive the reservoir operating rules as fuzzy if-then rules. The OLSR, FR, and ANFIS based rules are then simulated and compared. The methods are applied to a long-term planning problem and to a medium-term implicit stochastic optimization model. FR is useful to derive operating rules for the long-term model, where partial information is available. ANFIS is beneficial in the medium term implicit stochastic model as it is able to extract important features of the system from the generated input-output set.
Boryl–Metal Bonds Facilitate Cobalt/Nickel-Catalyzed Olefin Hydrogenation (2014)

New approaches toward the generation of late first-row metal catalysts that efficiently facilitate two-electron reductive transformations (e.g., hydrogenation) more typical of noble-metal catalysts is an important goal. Herein we describe the synthesis of a structurally unusual S = 1 bimetallic Co complex, [((Cy)PBP)CoH]2 (1), supported by bis(phosphino)boryl and bis(phosphino)hydridoborane ligands. This complex reacts reversibly with a second equivalent of H2 (1 atm) and serves as an olefin hydrogenation catalyst under mild conditions (room temperature, 1 atm H2). A bimetallic Co species is invoked in the rate-determining step of the catalysis according to kinetic studies. A structurally related Ni(I)Ni(I) dimer, [((Ph)PBP)Ni]2 (3), has also been prepared. Like Co catalyst 1, Ni complex 3 displays reversible reactivity toward H2, affording the bimetallic complex [((Ph)PBHP)NiH]2 (4). This reversible behavior is unprecedented for Ni(I) species and is attributed to the presence of a boryl-Ni bond. Lastly, a series of monomeric ((tBu)PBP)NiX complexes (X = Cl (5), OTf (6), H (7), OC(H)O (8)) have been prepared. The complex ((tBu)PBP)NiH (7) shows enhanced catalytic olefin hydrogenation activity when directly compared with its isoelectronic/isostructural analogues where the boryl unit is substituted by a phenyl or amine donor, a phenomenon that we posit is related to the strong trans influence exerted by the boryl ligand.
Optimal conditions for elution of hepatitis B antigen after absorption onto colloidal silica (1976)

Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBSAg) adsorbed from sera onto colloidal silica could be completely eluted through the use of 0.25% sodium deoxycholate in 0.01 M borax, pH 9.3, at 56 degrees C. The HBSAg recovered in the eluate represented 100% of that present in the original serum, and it was contaminated by only trace amounts of serum proteins (in decreasing amounts: beta-lipoprotein, immunoglobulin G, albumin). This preliminary step greatly facilitates purification of large amounts of HBSAg and provides small volumes of highly concentrated material for subsequent purification by density gradient centrifugation.

Data-driven HR - Résumé Analysis Based on Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning (2016)

Recruiters usually spend less than a minute looking at each résumé when deciding whether it's worth continuing the recruitment process with the candidate. Recruiters focus on keywords, and it's almost impossible to guarantee a fair process of candidate selection. The main scope of this paper is to tackle this issue by introducing a data-driven approach that shows how to process résumés automatically and give recruiters more time to only examine promising candidates. Furthermore, we show how to leverage Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing in order to extract all required information from the résumés. Once the information is extracted, a ranking score is calculated. The score describes how well the candidates fit based on their education, work experience and skills. Later this paper illustrates a prototype application that shows how this novel approach can increase the productivity of recruiters. The application enables them to filter and rank candidates based on predefined job descriptions. Guided by the ranking, recruiters can get deeper insights from candidate profiles and validate why and how the application ranked them. This application shows how to improve the hiring process by giving an unbiased hiring decision support.
Riveting Process Induced Residual Stresses Around Solid Rivets in Mechanical Joints (2007)

The interference fit provided by solid rivets introduces a residual stress field beneficial to the fatigue life of riveted joints. Evolution in riveting technology has led to force-controlled riveters which provide greater consistency over the rivet installation process and the resulting residual stress field. By reexamining the rivet installation process and its effects on the formation of residual stresses, the fatigue benefits of rivets could be further exploited. Using a 3-D finite element model, installation of universal and countersunk rivets in monolithic aluminum sheet has been studied. Aspects of accepted riveting practice, including the degree of rivet flushness and the rivet squeeze force were found to play significant roles in the formation of residual stresses. Residual stresses beneath the rivet head were also found to be influenced primarily by through-thickness compression of the joined sheets during riveting, challenging the traditional analogy of riveting to radial expansion processes.
The nature of deuterium arrangements in YD3 and other rare-earth trideuterides (2008)

Abstract The efficacy of different structural models for describing the observed neutron-powder-diffraction (NPD) measurements of bulk polycrystalline YD 3 as well as other hexagonal rare-earth ( i.e. , Nd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Tm) trideuteride powders has been investigated via Rietveld refinement. Between the two possible structural configurations, centrosymmetric P -3 c 1 and noncentrosymmetric P 6 3 cm , the latter can be excluded due to very high correlations found between the positions of the D sites. Hence, the true “diffraction-average” structure for YD 3 and all other rare-earth deuterides studied is centrosymmetric ( P -3 c 1). This seems to contrast with the prior evidence from first-principles calculations and various spectroscopic probes suggesting that the true local symmetry is not P -3 c 1, but rather, noncentrosymmetric. A possible way to reconcile the apparently conflicting conclusions from NPD and spectroscopic measurements is by assuming that the real structure is a twinned arrangement of nanosized, noncentrosymmetric configurations. For example, we demonstrate that the diffraction-average centrosymmetric P -3 c 1 structure can result from a superposition of individual, noncentrosymmetric P 3 c 1 twins. A comparison of neutron vibrational spectra for YH 3 and YD 3 confirms that both compounds share similar structural arrangements.

Transfer of transgenes for resistance to rice tungro disease into high-yielding rice cultivars through gene-based marker-assisted selection (2011)

SUMMARY Rice tungro disease (RTD), caused by the simultaneous infection of rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV) and rice tungro spherical virus (RTSV), is one of the major threats to sustainable rice production in South and Southeast Asia. Transgenic resistance against RTBV has been reported previously using an RNA interference (RNAi) construct ( ORF IV of RTBV, placed both in sense and anti-sense orientation under CaMV 35S promoter), in the scented rice line Pusa Basmati-1 (PB-1). This construct was transferred to two high-yielding tungro-susceptible indica rice cultivars (IET4094 and IET4786) from the transgenic PB-1 rice line using back cross breeding till the BC 2 F 3 stage. On challenge inoculation, the progenies (BC 2 F 1 ) showed mild symptoms of tungro, in contrast to severe symptoms displayed by the recurrent parents. Segregation of the transgene indicated near homozygosity of the plants at the BC 2 F 3 stage, implying that the lines can be used as a valuable resistance source for further breeding against RTD.
Superconducting DC and RF properties of ingot Niobium used in SRF cavity fabrication (2012)

Bulk niobium (Nb) has been the material of choice for the superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) cavity used in particle accelerator because of its highest transition temperature (Tc) and highest lower critical field (Hc1~ 190 mT) among the elemental type-II superconductors. The overall performance of these SRF cavities is measured by its quality factor, Q0 as a function of the accelerating gradient, Eacc. Higher Q0 for the reduction of cryogenic loss and higher Eacc for the use of high energy accelerators are desired. SRF cavities fabricated from ingot niobium have become a viable alternative to standard high-purity fine-grain Nb for the fabrication of high-performing SRF cavities with the possibility of significant cost reduction. In this contribution, we present the results on DC, low-frequency and RF measurements of Nb rods machined from ingots with different impurity concentrations, provided by CBMM, Brazil. The rods have been subjected to different treatments typically applied to SRF cavities. In addition, single-cell cavities are being fabricated from the same ingot material and initial results on one of them showed high Q0-values at 2 K up to peak surface magnetic fields of about 110 mT. Residual resistance values below 5 n have been consistently achieved on this cavity. A new induction furnace was commissioned for the heat treatment of these single-cells, which allows avoiding subsequent chemical etching of the cavity surface.
When Should We Use Geometrical-Based MIMO Detection Instead of Tree-Based Techniques? A Pareto Analysis (2020)

The soft-output multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detection problem has been extensively studied, and a large number of heuristics and metaheuristics have been proposed to solve it. Unlike classical tree-search based detectors, geometrical heuristic algorithms involved two consecutive steps: (i) an exploration step based on the geometry of the channel matrix singular vectors; (ii) a local exploitation step is performed in order to obtain better final solution. In this paper, new enhancements for geometrical heuristics are introduced to significantly reduce the complexity in quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) and allow 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) capability through new exploration techniques. The performance-complexity trade-off between the new detector and two tree-based algorithms is investigated through Pareto efficiency. The Pareto framework also allows us to select the most efficient tuning parameters based on an exhaustive search. The proposed detector can be customized on the fly using only one or two parameters to balance the trade-off between computational complexity and bit error rate performances. Moreover, the Pareto fronts demonstrate that the new geometrical heuristic is especially efficient with QPSK since it provides a significant reduction in regards to the computational complexity while preserving good bit error rate (BER) performance and ensuring high flexibility.

The zinc cluster transcription factor Ahr1p directs Mcm1p regulation of Candida albicans adhesion (2010)

Biofilm development by Candida albicans requires cell adhesion for the initial establishment of the biofilm and the continued stability after hyphal development occurs; however, the regulation of the process has not been fully established. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to microarray analysis (ChIP-chip) we have characterized a regulon containing the Mcm1p factor that is required for the initial surface adhesion during biofilm formation. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae several Mcm1p regulons have been characterized in which regulatory specificity is achieved through cofactors binding a sequence adjacent to the Mcm1p binding site. This new Mcm1p regulon in C. albicans also requires a cofactor, which we identify as the transcription factor Ahr1p. However, in contrast to the other yeast regulons, Ahr1p alone binds the target promoters, which include several key adhesion genes, and recruits Mcm1p to these sites. Through transcription profiling and qPCR analysis, we demonstrate that this Ahr1p-Mcm1p complex directly activates these adhesion genes. When the regulatory circuit was disrupted by deleting AHR1, the strain displayed reduced adherence to a polystyrene surface. We also demonstrate a role for the regulon in hyphal growth and in virulence. Our work thus establishes a new mechanism of Mcm1p-directed regulation distinct from those observed for other Mcm1p co-regulators.
Energy Costs & Performance of Transtibial Amputees & Non-amputees during Walking & Running (2014)

This study compared energy costs and performance differences of walking and running for transtibial amputee (TTA) and matched non-amputee runners. TTA were tested with 3 prosthetic feet: traditional foot, SACH; general purpose, energy storing and return (ESAR) foot, Renegade; running-specific ESAR foot, Nitro. During walking, VO2 and gait efficiency (GE) were similar between prosthetic feet. VO2 was increased (21-33%) and GE was decreased for TTA compared to controls. Self-selected walking speed (SSWS) was slower for SACH (4-6%) compared to Renegade and Nitro but SSWS for TTA was slower (16-22%) than controls. During running, VO2 was increased (8-18%) and GE was decreased using SACH and Renegade, compared to Nitro. During running, VO2 was greater (9-38%), GE was decreased and SSRS was slower (17-30%) for TTA, than controls. VO2 peak was similar for controls and TTA using Nitro, but peak running speed was slower for TTA. In conclusion, during walking energy costs are mostly similar between prosthetic feet, but ESAR feet likely provide faster SSWS for TTA. During running, energy costs and performance are improved for TTA using Nitro. Nonetheless, for all prosthetic feet conditions, TTA demonstrated an energy cost and performance disadvantage during walking and running compared to non-amputee runners.
Selective Atomic Layer Deposition Of Transition Metal Thin Films (2017)

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) affords highly conformal thin films with precise thickness control due to its self-limited growth mechanism. ALD enables the increasing demands for smaller feature sizes in microelectronics devices to be met. Area-selective ALD growth is receiving attention in the fabrication of microelectronic devices, since it can eliminate complicated etching steps from the fabrication process and minimizes expensive and toxic reagent use. Selectivity can be achieved by tailoring the surface chemistry of the precursor and substrate. To date, few area-selective ALD processes have been reported for metallic films. Thin films of cobalt metal deposited selectively are of considerable interest for use in microelectronics devices, specifically as a metallization liner in sub-10 nm logic nodes. Our laboratory has recently reported an ALD process for cobalt metal thin films using bis(1,4-di-tert-butyl-1,3-diazabutadienyl)cobalt(II), Co(tBu2DAD)2, and formic acid. This process affords high-purity, low-resistivity cobalt films. Excellent cobalt metal film growth also occurs on metallic substrates, with a growth rate of ~0.95 Å/cycle. In this work, I will describe the early stage nucleation and selective growth of cobalt metal from Co(tBu2DAD)2 and formic acid on ruthenium, platinum, and copper substrates. No cobalt metal growth is observed on nonmetallic substrates. I will also describe the development of a new inherently substrate-selective ALD process for high-purity, low-resistivity (~13 µΩcm) cobalt metal from Co(tBu2DAD)2 and alkyl amines, with a GR of 0.98 Å/cycle on metal substrates. No cobalt metal growth is observed on dielectric substrates. I will also describe the development of a new inherently substrate-selective ALD process for high-purity, low-resistivity (~20 µΩcm) nickel metal from Ni(tBu2DAD)2 and alkyl amines, with a growth rate of 0.60 Å/cycle on metal substrates. No nickel metal growth is observed on dielectric substrates.

Protective Effects of Ginkgolides on Three Types of Cerebral Ischemic Models in Rats (2005)

Objective To study the protective effects of ginkgolides on three types of cerebral ischemic models in rats.Methods Acute incomplete cerebral ischemia (AICI) model,middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) model and global ischemia(GI) model were induced by different ways. With nimodipine(ND) and Yin Ke Luo(YKL) as positive controls, the effects of ginkgolides on the focal volume of cerebral infarction, indexes of hemorrheology and cerebral biochemistry, neuro behavior and the pathologic changes of brain were evaluated and analyzed. Results Ginkgolides decreased the cerebral water volume and cerebral capillary permeability in rats with AICI; it improved rats'neurotic behavior, reduced cerebral infarction volume, increased SOD activity and decreased MDA, LDH and LA levels in rats with MCAO; Ginkgolides could also reduce the blood viscosity and improve the pathological changes of ischemic brain.Conclusion Ginkgolides have protective effects on cerebral ischemia by improving cerebral ischemia and by counteracting the brain damage induced by cerebral ischemia.

In Vitro Comparison of Fibrinolytic Activity of Plasminogen Activators Using a Thrombelastographic Method: In Vivo Evaluation of the B-Chain-Streptokinase Complex in the Dog Model Using Pre-Titered Doses (1986)

Thrombelastography was used to quantitatively compare the clot-lysing efficiency of 6 different plasminogen activators, using human whole blood, pooled normal plasma, and platelet rich plasma. The activators compared were the B-chain-streptokinase complex, the plasmin-streptokinase complex, the mini-plasminogen-streptokinase complex, tissue plasminogen activator, streptokinase, and urokinase. The most efficient activator found was the B-chain-streptokinase complex. This complex was 4.0 times more effective than streptokinase, 3.0 times more effective than the plasmin-streptokinase complex, 1.3 times more effective than the mini-plasminogen-streptokinase complex, 2.3 times more effective than tissue plasminogen activator, and 16.0 times more effective than urokinase. Although there were differences in both the coagulation and fibrinolysis thrombelastographic patterns between plasma and whole blood, the comparative efficiencies of each activator were the same with either plasma or blood. The B-chain-streptokinase complex was evaluated as a thrombolytic agent in clot-lysis experiments in the jugular vein in the dog model, using a thrombelastographic method to determine the minimum dose of activator necessary for clot-lysis. With 6 dogs infused locally with 0.25 mg (8000 I.U.) of the plasmin-streptokinase complex, the cumulative clot-lysis was 18.0 +/- 3.0% with the first dose, 33.0 +/- 2.1% with the second dose, and 55.2 +/- 8.6% with the third dose. With 6 dogs infused locally with 0.03 mg (2000 I.U.) of the B-chain-streptokinase complex, the cumulative clot-lysis was 30.6 +/- 6.4% with the first dose, 54.4 +/- 9.6% with the second dose, and 80.2 +/- 9.0% with the third dose.
