Recognition of Characters from Streaming Videos (2010)

Over the past few years, Video has become one of the prime source for recreation, be it Television or Internet. Television brings a whole lot of professionally produced video content (International or local, sports or educational, news or entertainment) to the home for the masses. Similarly, Internet hosts a whole lot of video content uploaded by other users. Understanding the context of the video automatically can open up avenue for a lot of valueadded applications. Now, what do we mean by understanding the context? Video context is usually associated with audio, image, graph, text etc. that are embedded within the Video – these are the information that help us understand the content of the video. Video texts can provide a lot of contextual information on the video clips. In general, there are two types of texts embedded inside video namely, scene texts and artificial texts. Scene texts appear naturally in scenes shot by the cameras. Artificial texts are separately added to video frames (normally in Production Studios) to supplement the visual and audio contents (Lienhart, 1996). Since artificial text is purposefully added, it is usually more structured and closely related to context than a scene text. The text data in video frames contain useful information for automatic annotation, indexing and summarization of the visual information. Extraction of the text information involves the following processes – 1. Detection of Text Region 2. Localization of Text Region from the detected region 3. Tracking of Text from Localized Region 4. Extraction of Tracked Text 5. Enhancement of the Extracted Text 6. Recognition of the text from the Enhanced Input 7. Post-processing (language dependant) of Recognized Text

Development of High Toughness Bainitic Microalloyed Forging Steel (1998)

&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;The influence of chemical compositions and forging conditions on mechanical properties of forged bainitic steels were studied. Manganese and chromium are useful to produce bainite structure while carbon and vanadium are good to control the mechanical properties of the steels. One of the compositions is 0.25 % C - 2.1 % Mn - 0.7 % Cr - 0.15 % V of which tensile strength is 1000 MPa and impact value (2 mm U type notched specimen) is 50 J/cm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; for 100 mm diameter bars. Bainitic steels have lower fatigue limit in the case of smooth specimen than ferrite-pearlite microalloyed steels but have higher fatigue limit in the case of notched specimen.&lt;/div&gt;
Mycosarcoma (Ustilaginaceae), a resurrected generic name for corn smut (Ustilago maydis) and its close relatives with hypertrophied, tubular sori (2016)

<i>Ustilago</i> is a polyphyletic genus of smut fungi found mainly on <i>Poaceae</i>. The development of a taxonomy that reflects phylogeny requires subdivision of <i>Ustilago</i> into smaller monophyletic genera. Several separate systematic analyses have determined that <i>Macalpinomyces mackinlayi</i>, <i>M. tubiformis</i>, <i>Tolyposporella pachycarpa</i>, <i>Ustilago bouriquetii</i> and <i>U. maydis</i>, occupy a unique phylogenetic position within the <i>Ustilaginaceae</i>. A previously introduced monotypic generic name typified by <i>U. maydis</i>, <i>Mycosarcoma</i>, is available to accommodate these species, which resolves one component of polyphyly for <i>Ustilago</i><i>s.</i><i>lat.</i> in <i>Ustilaginaceae</i>. An emended description of <i>Mycosarcoma</i> is provided to reflect the morphological synapomorphies of this monophyletic group. A specimen of <i>Ustilago maydis</i> that has had its genome sequenced is designated as a neotype for this species. Taxonomic stability will further be provided by a forthcoming proposal to conserve the name <i>Uredo maydis</i> over <i>Lycoperdon zeae</i>, which has priority by date, in order to preserve the well-known epithet <i>maydis.</i>
5α‐Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) retards wound closure by inhibiting re‐epithelialization (2008)

The ongoing search for explanations as to why elderly males heal acute skin wounds more slowly than do their female counterparts (and are more strongly disposed to conditions of chronic ulceration) has identified endogenous oestrogens and androgens as being respectively enhancers and inhibitors of repair. We previously demonstrated that blocking the conversion of testosterone to 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) limits its ability to impair healing, suggesting that DHT is a more potent inhibitor of repair than is testosterone. The present study aimed to delineate the central mechanisms by which androgens delay repair. Whilst the contractile properties of neither rat wounds in vivo nor fibroblast-impregnated collagenous discs in vitro appeared to be influenced by androgen manipulations, the global blockade of DHT biosynthesis markedly accelerated re-epithelialization of incisional and excisional wounds and reduced local expression of beta-catenin, a key inhibitor of repair. Moreover, DHT retarded the in vitro migration of epidermal keratinocytes following scratch wounding. By contrast, it failed to influence the migratory and proliferative properties of dermal fibroblasts, suggesting that its primary inhibitory effect is upon re-epithelialization. These novel findings may be of particular significance in the context of chronic ulceration, for which being male is a key risk factor.

Isotope harvesting at FRIB: additional opportunities for scientific discovery (2019)

Abstract The upcoming Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University provides a new opportunity to access some of the world’s most specialized scientific resources: radioisotopes . An excess of useful radioisotopes will be formed as FRIB fulfills its basic science mission of providing rare isotope beams. In order for the FRIB beams to reach high-purity, many of the isotopes are discarded and go unused. If harvested, the unused isotopes could enable new research for diverse applications ranging from medical therapy and diagnosis to nuclear security. Given that FRIB will have the capability to create about 80% of all possible atomic nuclei, harvesting at FRIB will provide a fast path for access to a vast array of isotopes of interest in basic and applied science investigations. To fully realize this opportunity, infrastructure investment is required to enable harvesting and purification of otherwise unused isotopes. An investment in isotope harvesting at FRIB will provide a powerful resource for development of crucial isotope applications. In 2010, the United States Department of Energy Office of Science, Nuclear Physics, sponsored the first ‘Workshop on Isotope Harvesting at FRIB’, convening researchers from diverse fields to discuss the scientific impact and technical feasibility of isotope harvesting. Following the initial meeting, a series of biennial workshops was organized. At the fourth workshop, at Michigan State University in 2016, the community elected to prepare a formal document to present their findings. This report is the output of the working group, drawing on contributions and discussions with a broad range of scientific experts.
Acceleration of hippocampal atrophy rates in asymptomatic amyloidosis (2015)

Increased rates of brain atrophy measured from serial magnetic resonance imaging precede symptom onset in Alzheimer's disease and may be useful outcome measures for prodromal clinical trials. Appropriate trial design requires a detailed understanding of the relationships between β-amyloid load and accumulation, and rate of brain change at this stage of the disease. Fifty-two healthy individuals (72.3 ± 6.9 years) from Australian Imaging, Biomarkers and Lifestyle Study of Aging had serial (0, 18 m, 36 m) magnetic resonance imaging, (0, 18 m) Pittsburgh compound B positron emission tomography, and clinical assessments. We calculated rates of whole brain and hippocampal atrophy, ventricular enlargement, amyloid accumulation, and cognitive decline. Over 3 years, rates of whole brain atrophy (p < 0.001), left and right hippocampal atrophy (p = 0.001, p = 0.023), and ventricular expansion (p < 0.001) were associated with baseline β-amyloid load. Whole brain atrophy rates were also independently associated with β-amyloid accumulation over the first 18 months (p = 0.003). Acceleration of left hippocampal atrophy rate was associated with baseline β-amyloid load across the cohort (p < 0.02). We provide evidence that rates of atrophy are associated with both baseline β-amyloid load and accumulation, and that there is presymptomatic, amyloid-mediated acceleration of hippocampal atrophy. Clinical trials using rate of hippocampal atrophy as an outcome measure should not assume linear decline in the presymptomatic phase.

Quantitative method for measurement of aerotolerance of bacteria and its application to oral indigenous anaerobes (1986)

An index which expressed the aerobic to anaerobic potential was made for bacteria with intermediate tolerance for oxygen. One method used for this analysis was measurement of the relative bacterial growth ratio. The other method was based on the pattern of the absorbancy versus depth plot. The index was applied to oral indigenous anaerobes.
An approach to users-oriented on demand optical grid network construction in large scale open pptical networks (2008)

In this paper we consider the future grid systems built in a large scale open lightpath optical network environment. According to userspsila needs on high performance distributed computation, a group of dedicated lightpaths among the distributed computer resources forming the userspsila on-demand optical grid networks are established dynamically and efficiently providing the high-quality communication capability for users. In such a large scale dynamic and concurrent open network environment, in order to create the best network environment for userspsila applications, we propose an incremental improvement approach to the joint optimization problem of process/processor mapping and logical topology design. Through evaluations, it is shown that this approach is effective and flexible to find the alternative solutions when lightpath provisioning blocking occurs during the userspsila lightpath network construction. In addition, we present two signaling system designs for automatic construction of the users-oriented on-demand optical grid network.
Omnidirectional Optical Crosslinks for CubeSats: Transmitter Optimization (2020)

CubeSat swarm in LEO orbit is an attractive alternative to present-day expensive and bulky satellite-based remote sensing systems. This paper presents the design and optimization rules to achieve omnidirectional, high speed, long-range (more than 100 km) data communication among CubeSats. The unprecedented size, weight, power, and cost constraints imposed by the CubeSat platform and the availability of the commercial-off-the-shelf components are considered in the analyses. Analytical studies related to the scanning mirror-based beam steering system as well as scanning mirror's smallest step angle requirement are presented. In addition, we demonstrate the relations and dependencies among scanning mirror's smallest step angle, laser beam divergence, optics dimensions, communication distance, and scanning area filling efficiency, etc. Furthermore, the optimization challenges of the transmit laser beam size considering the interplay among beam divergence, beam clipping, and scattering are studied in detail. This paper also presents the effect of laser peak power, initial beam size, and communication distance on effective communication beam width to maintain a long-distance (more than 100 km) communication with SNR ≥ 10 dB at a data rate greater than 500 Mb/s.
Conflicting evidence for the role of JNK as a target in breast cancer cell proliferation: Comparisons between pharmacological inhibition and selective shRNA knockdown approaches (2017)

As a target, the JNK pathway has been implicated in roles including cell death, proliferation, and inflammation in variety of contexts which span cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative pathologies, and cancer. JNK1 and JNK2 have recently been demonstrated to function independently, highlighting a new parameter in the study of the JNK pathway. In order for JNK1 and JNK2-specific roles to be defined, better tools need to be employed. Previous studies have relied upon the broad spectrum JNK inhibitor, SP600125, to characterize the role of JNK signaling in a number of cell lines, including the breast cancer cell line MCF-7. In line with previous literature, our study has demonstrated that SP600125 treatment inhibited c-Jun and JNK phosphorylation and MCF-7 proliferation. However, in addition to targeting JNK1, JNK2, and JNK3, SP600125 has been previously demonstrated to suppress the activity of a number of other serine/threonine kinases, making SP600125 an inadequate tool for JNK isoform-specific roles to be determined. In this study, lentiviral shRNA was employed to selectively knockdown JNK1, JNK2, and JNK1/2 in MCF-7 cells. Using this approach, JNK phosphorylation was fully inhibited following stable knockdown of respective JNK isoforms. Interestingly, despite suppression of JNK phosphorylation, MCF-7 cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, or cell death remained unaffected. These findings raise the question of whether JNK phosphorylation really is pivotal in MCF-7 cell growth and death or if suppression of these events is a result of one of the many off-targets cited for SP600125.

Boundary following using gyroscopic control (2004)

Recent work in the study of interacting particles has demonstrated the effectiveness of gyroscopic interactions in producing desired stable spatial patterns (formations) of motion of a collective of particles. In this paper, we discuss the problem of how a single particle might interact with a fixed structure in space by exploiting gyroscopic feedback laws. We derive a gyroscopic feedback law modeling the interaction of a particle in the plane with an image particle representing the closest point on a simple closed curve bounding an obstacle and show that this law produces boundary-following behavior. We also provide a preliminary discussion of the three-dimensional case.
[Primary hyperparathyroidism: diagnosis and management]. (2012)

The prevalence of primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) varies between 1 and 4/1.000 in the general population. HPT is nowadays most often asymptomatic. The classical bone disease has been replaced by osteopenia or osteoporosis with a preferential bone loss in cortical sites. The incidence of nephrolithiasis has been considerably lowered, but renal lithiasis is still the most frequent complication of HPT. The diagnosis is most often made by chance or during the workup of an abnormal bone mass. Hypercalcemia and an elevated PTH concentration, or at least a PTH level in the upper part of the normal range, generally point to a diagnosis of HPT. Additional tests include an evaluation of renal function, vitamin D measurement, determination of 24-hour urinary calcium and bone densitometry. Besides symptomatic HPT, classical recommendations for surgery include age less than 50, serum Ca at least 1 mg/dl above the upper limit of normal, creatinine clearance < 60 ml/min and osteoporosis. Surgical referral will, however, take into account patient age and comorbidities, as well as patient preferences. In the hands of an experienced surgeon, the success rate of parathyroidectomy is 95-98% and the rate of permanent complications is 1-3%. Parathyroid scintigraphy is the best preoperative localization technique of the adenoma. When surgery is contraindicated or refused by the patient, bisphosphonates or cinacalcet can be indicated in cases of osteoporosis or clinically significant hypercalcemia, respectively.
Parallel O(log N) algorithms for computation of manipulator forward dynamics (1995)

These parallel algorithms described are based on a new O(N) solution to the problem. The underlying feature of this O(N) method is a different strategy for decomposition of interbody force which results in a new factorization of mass matrix (M). Specifically, a factorization of inverse of the mass matrix in the form of Schur complement is derived as M/sup -1/=C-D/sup t/A/sup -1/B wherein A, B, and C are block tridiagonal matrices. The new O(N) algorithm is then derived as a recursive implementation of this factorization of M/sup -1/. It is shown that the resulting algorithm is strictly parallel. Strategies for multilevel exploitation of parallelism in the computation are also discussed, resulting in more efficient parallel O(log N) algorithms. The parallel algorithms developed in this paper, in addition to their theoretical significance, are also important from a practical implementation standpoint due to their simple architectural requirements.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

Using Natural Language Processing to Improve Efficiency of Manual Chart Abstraction in Research: The Case of Breast Cancer Recurrence (2014)

The increasing availability of electronic health records (EHRs) creates opportunities for automated extraction of information from clinical text. We hypothesized that natural language processing (NLP) could substantially reduce the burden of manual abstraction in studies examining outcomes, like cancer recurrence, that are documented in unstructured clinical text, such as progress notes, radiology reports, and pathology reports. We developed an NLP-based system using open-source software to process electronic clinical notes from 1995 to 2012 for women with early-stage incident breast cancers to identify whether and when recurrences were diagnosed. We developed and evaluated the system using clinical notes from 1,472 patients receiving EHR-documented care in an integrated health care system in the Pacific Northwest. A separate study provided the patient-level reference standard for recurrence status and date. The NLP-based system correctly identified 92% of recurrences and estimated diagnosis dates within 30 days for 88% of these. Specificity was 96%. The NLP-based system overlooked 5 of 65 recurrences, 4 because electronic documents were unavailable. The NLP-based system identified 5 other recurrences incorrectly classified as nonrecurrent in the reference standard. If used in similar cohorts, NLP could reduce by 90% the number of EHR charts abstracted to identify confirmed breast cancer recurrence cases at a rate comparable to traditional abstraction.
Strategies for mapping Lee's maze routing algorithm onto parallel architectures (2002)

Lee's (1961) maze-routing algorithm has been a popular method for routing wires in VLSI circuits. It can also be applied to a variety of other problems, such as robot path planning. Although the algorithm is simple and easy to implement, its computation time can be quite high. Therefore, it is a very attractive candidate for implementation on parallel systems. The major issue in parallelizing this algorithm is mapping the grid space of the problem to the processor space. The communication cost and processor utilization can be greatly affected by the mapping strategy used. Won and Sahni (1987) have studied a class of mapping strategies for Lee's algorithm and analyzed their performance. The authors propose two new mapping strategies. First, they modify Won and Sahni's mapping algorithm by using the concept of mirror images to allow higher processor utilization while reducing the number of boundary cells. The new algorithm is shown to be better than the original one in an obstacle-free grid space. Then, they propose a dynamic mapping algorithm. This new mapping algorithm is shown to give an optimal mapping in an obstacle-free grid space. Also, they performed simulation to study the relative performance of these mapping algorithms for grid spaces with obstacles. The results show that the new algorithms are substantially faster than the earlier ones.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
