Giant Cell Interstitial Pneumonitis: Disease Recurrence in the Transplanted Lung (1993)

Recurrence of the original disease in the transplanted organ is well reported in renal transplant recipients. There have been no previously fully documented cases of recurrence of the original disease after lung transplantation. We report a patient who underwent single-lung transplant in 1990 for end-stage respiratory failure secondary to biopsy-proved giant cell interstitial pneumonitis (GIP). There was no further industrial exposure. Surveillance bronchoscopies and biopsies post-transplant demonstrated eosinophils and giant cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage of both lungs, and in biopsies of the transplanted organ. Two years after successful transplantation the patient deteriorated and underwent open lung biopsy, which demonstrated not only bronchiolitis obliterans but also the classic features of GIP. There was no evidence of inorganic particles in the transplanted lung. Autopsy confirmed the presence of numerous giant cells characteristic of GIP with associated fibrosis throughout the transplanted lung. Although tungsten and other inorganic particles were again demonstrated in the native lung, there was no evidence of tungsten particles in the transplanted lungs. We believe that this case documents recurrence of the original disease after lung transplantation. The absence of unusual inorganic particles in the transplanted lung in the face of the classic picture of GIP is highly suggestive of an autoimmune mechanism for this occupation-associated disease. The appropriateness of transplant in the management of this lung disease should be reviewed further.

Multiple Time Scales Observed in Spontaneously Evolved Neurons on High-density CMOS Electrode Array (2013)

Spontaneous evolution of neural cells was recorded around 4-34 days in vitro (DIV) with high-density CMOS microelectrode array, which enables detailed study of the spatiotemporal activity of cultured neurons. We used the CMOS array to characterize 1) the evolution of activation patterns of each putative neurons, 2) the developmental change in cell-cell interactions, and finally, 3) emergence of multiple timescales for neurons to exchange information with each other. The results revealed not only the topology of the physical connectivity of the neurons but also the functional connectivity of the neurons within different time scales. We finally argued the relationship of the results with “functional networks”, which interact with each other to support multiple cognitive functions in the mature human brain.
Learning deeply coupled autoencoders for smartphone based robust periocular verification (2016)

Smartphone based periocular recognition has received substantial attention from the biometric research community. In this work, we propose a new scheme for the smartphone based periocular recognition. The proposed scheme is based on the texture features extracted from the periocular images using Maximum Response (MR) filters. These texture features are then classified using a deep neural network based on deeply coupled autoencoders. Extensive experiments are carried out on the large-scale VISOB database with 550 subjects captured using three different smartphones. The obtained results demonstrate the average performance of the proposed scheme with GMR of over 92% at FMR = 10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">-3</sup> .
Cloud Ran Architecture For Smart Cities (2018)

Cloud RAN (CRAN) is envisioned to provide great flexibil-<br> ity and re-usability of not only radio resources such as frequency spec-<br> trum but also processing capability and storage in an efficient and most cost-effective manner. This makes CRAN a perfect candidate for smart city solutions where radio and processing resources for various types of communications shall have to be rented out for specific durations of times. This paper presents a network slice based CRAN architecture for smart cities which makes use of the edge cloud computing and front-end computing to fulfill the needs of various types of communications, i.e., low latency and high throughput. Furthermore, this paper highlights the challenges and solution in addressing these low latency, high throughput requirements.

Development of Customer Oriented Product Design using Kansei Engineering and Kano Model: Case Study of Ceramic Souvenir (2015)

This research was conducted to improve the design of ceramic souvenir to meet the desires of the customers better, using the concept of Kansei Engineering and Kano Model. Kansei Engineering was used to capture and translate consumer perception (Kansei words) to be the elements of design. In addition, this research also classify or categorize Kansei words from consumer perception into attributes in the Kano Model, which then assisted with the calculation and statistical analysis. The influential Kansei words which affect the consumer satisfaction will become priorities for further design development. The results obtained from this research were the factors that influence consumer satisfaction of ceramic products which can be divided into 2 (two) main factors, i.e. factors of appearance and performance. However, based on the results of the mapping on a Kano Model, the appearance factor becomes prioritized more for development of the product design. The conjoint analysis was used to find out the relationship between Kansei words and elements of design that should be included in the appearance factor. As a result, the suggested ceramic souvenir product should have the elements of parabolic-shaped design with artificial 2D decoration, glazed texture and solid/blocked color.
A high throughput LDPC decoder using a mid-range GPU (2014)

A standard-throughput-approaching LDPC decoder has been implemented on a mid-range GPU in this paper. Turbo-Decoding Message-Passing algorithm is applied to achieve high throughput. Different from traditional host managed multi-streams to hide host-device transfer delay, we use kernel maintained data transfer scheme to achieve implicit data transfer between host memory and device shared memory, which eliminates an intermediate stage of global memory. Data type optimization, memory accessing optimization, and low complexity Soft-In Soft-Out algorithm are also used to improve efficiency. Through these optimization methods, the 802.11n LDPC decoder on NVIDIA GTX480 GPU, which is released in 2010 with Fermi architecture, has achieved a high throughput of 295Mb/s when decoding 512 codewords simultaneously, which is close to highest bit rate 300Mb/s with 20MHz bandwidth in 802.11n standard. Decoding 1024 and 4096 codewords achieve 330 and 365Mb/s. A 802.16e LDPC decoder is also implemented, 374Mb/s (512 codewords), 435Mb/s (1024 codewords) and 507Mb/s (4096 codewords) throughputs have been achieved.
Posttranslational Control of Beta-Catenin Signaling Regulates Peripheral Blood Lymphocyte Activation. (2005)

Abstract Lymphocyte proliferation is a critical step in the immune response to antigen. Previously we demonstrated that β-catenin is constitutively expressed in hematologic malignancies and that β-catenin regulates leukemia cell proliferation. Here we report that β-catenin is highly regulated in peripheral blood lymphocytes via posttranslational mechanisms, and that β-catenin signaling promotes lymphocyte proliferation. β-catenin protein was undetectable by western blot in resting PBL and readily detectable within 30 min after activation by TCR ligation, mitogen or PMA/ionomycin. Proteasome inhibitor alone induced β-catenin accumulation in resting PBL. Transfection of β-TrCP1, an adaptor protein that recruits serine-phosphorylated β-catenin to the Skp1-Cullin-F box ubiquitin ligase complex down-regulated β-catenin in activated cells and conversely, dominant-negative β-TrCP1 upregulated β-catenin in resting cells. β-catenin was serine/threonine phosphorylated in resting PBL and rapidly dephosphorylated after activation, consistent with regulation by an activation-induced phosphatase. In resting PBL, elevation of intracellular Ca2+ stabilized β-catenin protein. In activated PBL, β-catenin stabilization was inhibited either by blocking Ca2+ flux with EGTA and BAPTA/AM, or by incubation with cyclosporine A, an inhibitor of the calcium-activated phosphatase calcineurin. In activated PBL inhibition of β-catenin nuclear signaling with dominant-negative β-catenin, dominant-negative TCF or β-catenin antisense inhibited IL-2 expression and proliferation. Conversely, wild-type β-catenin increased IL-2 expression and stimulated proliferation. We conclude that β-catenin protein is continuously synthesized and efficiently degraded in resting lymphocytes, β-catenin is rapidly stabilized in response to activation-induced Ca2+ flux, β-catenin nuclear signaling plays a critical role in peripheral blood lymphocyte activation.
An optical lever measurement of the piezoelectric charge coefficient (1996)

Abstract We present a technique to measure the piezoelectric strain (charge) coefficient using an optical lever technique. The optical lever consists of a laser source, a levered mirror connected to the sample and a linear CCD array detector (pixel size = 13 μm). A field on the sample creates a displacement due to the piezoelectric effect. The displacement levers the mirror and diverts the laser beam through an angle which is twice the angular displacement of the levered mirror. The peak intensity of the laser beam on the CCD array is monitored as the field on the sample is ramped. The functional relationship between the piezoelectric coefficient and the displacement, as measured by the CCD array, is linear. Therefore, the technique is inherently ideal for studying non-linear effects. The resolution of the optical lever is less than one nanometer. The system can also be used to make highly localized measurements of the absolute displacements of piezoelectric or electrostrictive materials.
<title>Optical design of an orbiting low-light cloud imager lens</title> (1997)

A conceptual design has been developed for a Low-light Cloud Imager (LCI) to be used on a combination NOAA/DoD weather satellite. This lens was specified to have a ground resolution of 2.4 km over a 1 10 °x7 1 ° field of view. In order to accomplish this resolution on the night-side ofthe earth in the visible/near-infrared waveband (400-1000 nm), a very fast (f/1.72) lens was required. This paper describes the requirements on the lens, the effort to design a lens to meet the requirements, and the resulting performance of the conceptual design. Special attention is given to the following areas: understanding the performance requirements, simultaneously accomplishing a wide field of view and a low f-number, color correction, and distortion correction.

Effects of Silver Doping on the Sol–Gel‐Derived Ba 4 (Nd 0.7 Sm 0.3 ) 9.33 Ti 18 O 54 Microwave Dielectric Ceramics (2007)

Tungstenbronze‐type Ba 4 (Nd 0.7 Sm 0.3 ) 9.33 Ti 18 O 54 (BNST) microwave dielectric ceramics doped with 0–10 wt% silver (Ag) particles were successfully fabricated by a citrate sol–gel method. The influence of Ag doping on the sinterability, microstructure, bulk conductivity, and dielectric properties of BNST was investigated. The desired tungstenbronze‐type phase was obtained at 900°–950°C. The sintering temperature of BNST decreased to 1100°C with the aid of a small amount of Ag addition (1 wt%). No chemical reaction between the tungsenbronze phase and Ag was detected. The particle size of the powders decreased with increasing Ag content up to 1 wt% and it then increased with a further increase in the Ag content. The dense fine‐grained ceramics with submicrometer grains (∼300 nm) were obtained with 1 wt% Ag addition. The submicrometer‐grained ceramics had excellent dielectric properties of ɛ r ∼81 and Q × f ∼11 000 GHz. Both the dielectric constant and dielectric loss significantly increased with large additions (&gt;3 wt%) of Ag due to the percolation effect.

Synthesis of Multispectral Images to High Spatial Resolution: A Critical Review of Fusion Methods Based on Remote Sensing Physics (2008)

Our framework is the synthesis of multispectral images (MS) at higher spatial resolution, which should be as close as possible to those that would have been acquired by the corresponding sensors if they had this high resolution. This synthesis is performed with the help of a high spatial but low spectral resolution image: the panchromatic (Pan) image. The fusion of the Pan and MS images is classically referred as pan-sharpening. A fused product reaches good quality only if the characteristics and differences between input images are taken into account. Dissimilarities existing between these two data sets originate from two causes-different times and different spectral bands of acquisition. Remote sensing physics should be carefully considered while designing the fusion process. Because of the complexity of physics and the large number of unknowns, authors are led to make assumptions to drive their development. Weaknesses and strengths of each reported method are raised and confronted to these physical constraints. The conclusion of this critical survey of literature is that the choice in the assumptions for the development of a method is crucial, with the risk to drastically weaken fusion performance. It is also shown that the Amelioration de la Resolution Spatiale par Injection de Structures concept prevents from introducing spectral distortion into fused products and offers a reliable framework for further developments.

Fullerenes as nuclei of carbon black particles (2000)

The existing models for the structure and inception processes of carbon black particles are analyzed taking into account the experimental data on the cluster formation. A new model of the formation of carbon black particles is proposed. The inference is made that single-layer fullerenes being the minimum possible closed carbon black particles serve as nuclei of large-sized carbon black particles. These particles grow via the deposition of carbon layers on the surface of fullerenes with defects. The defects fulfill the role of seeds that give rise to the front of the layer growth. The defect-free fullerenes do not take part in the carbon black formation due to the thermodynamic stability as a result of structural perfection. The primary carbon black particles—globules—are many-layer formations with a hole in the center whose size and configuration match the size and configuration of the initial fullerene nucleus. The layers in the form of concentric spheroids inserted into each other are composed of distorted and defect carbon networks. The flatest parts of several outer layers of carbon black particles are the regions of the coherent X-ray scattering.
Temperature and Composition Dependences of Thermal Conductivity, Thermal Diffusivity and Specific Heat of the PbO-SiO<SUB>2</SUB> Glass System (1991)

Thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat of the PbO-SiO2 glass system were determined with the hot strip method over the temperature range of 300 to 1200 K. The results led to the elucidation of their dependences on temperature and composition.The thermal conductivity of PbO-SiO2 and fused-SiO2 monotonously increased with increasing temperature but that of crystalline PbO decreased. The temperature dependence of the thermal diffusivity for PbO-SiO2 and PbO were the same with that of the thermal conductivity for the respective substances but the thermal diffusivity of fused-SiO2 was little varied by change of temperature. The specific heat of all the samples increased with temperature increase.The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of PbO-SiO2 were determined to be smaller than those of fused-SiO2 but not distinctly dependent on the PbO content.The dependences of the thermal conductivity and the thermal diffusivity on temperature and composition were discussed based on the Debye’s theory.The specific heat of PbO-SiO2 was larger than the estimated one, which was calculated assuming that the specific heat of PbO-SiO2 was linearly proportional to the respective contents of PbO and SiO2. The difference between the two values was considered to be excess specific heat.
E–e Jahn‐Teller system: Optical response studies (1977)

Abstract The E‐e Jahn‐Teller system is considered. An exact Fourier transformation of the optical response, as calculated by an operator method, is given. The absorption functions depend on the coupling strength and on temperature. Their behaviour is discussed. Comparisons are made with other theoretical investigations.
