<title>Multilinearization data structure for image browsing</title> (1998)

Image search has been actively studied in recent years. On the other hand, image browsing has received limited attention. Image browsing refers to the process of presenting forms of overview or summary of the image relationships, thus facilitating a user to navigate across the data set and find images of interest. In this paper, we present a new data structure, built on the multi- linearization of image attributes, for efficient organization of the data set and fast visual browsing of the images. We describe new techniques for multi-linearization based on multiple space-filling curves and hierarchical clustering techniques. In addition to providing fast navigation, our proposed data structure allows computationally efficient insertion and deletion of images from the data set. We then present a novel image navigator and browser, built on dual-linearization data structure and intuitive presentation of image relevance and relationships. We then demonstrate the image navigation process, and report results on 1000 and 22,000 image databases. We also discuss how our data structure can be extended to support fast image search.
Comparative structural analysis of 1-methyladenosine, 7-methylguanosine, ethenoadenosine and their protonated salts IV:1H,13C, and15N NMR studies at natural isotope abundance (1986)

The 1H, 13C, and 15N NMR spectra of neutral and protonated forms of the nucleosides 1-methyladenosine (m1A), 7-methylguanosine (m7G) and ethenoadenosine (EA), as a model compound, have been analyzed in order to assign the site of protonation in m1A and m7G. Protonation of these nucleosides occurs in the pyrimidine ring of m1A and EA and in the imidazole ring of m7G, with the charge being distributed rather than localized. Structural differences for both m1A and m7G were observed in solution and compared with those existing in the crystal state of monomers as well as in tRNA where these nucleosides occur quite often. The protonated nucleoside structures in solution compared favorably in sugar pucker and glycosidic bond conformations with x-ray crystallographic data. Methyl group carbon chemical shifts of the protonated mononucleosides corresponded to those of the methyls of the respective nucleosides in native tRNA structures. Therefore, the tRNA methyl group carbon chemical shifts are indicative of fully protonated nucleosides in the native, three dimensional structure of the nucleic acid.
Optical In Situ Studies of Ge(100) Interfacial Exchange Reactions in GaAs-Rich MOVPE Reactors for Low-Defect III-P Growth (2023)

For vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) or photoelectrochemical devices and high efficient III-V/Ge(100) photovoltaics, preparation of double-atomic steps on Ge(100) substrates is highly recommended in order to avoid anti-phase boundaries in the III-V buffer layers. These Ge(100) surfaces were investigated in detail under As- and GaAs-rich MOVPE reactor conditions. During initial growth of III-P buffer layers, however, on an atomically well-ordered Ge(100):As surface, As-P exchange takes place, during which double-layer steps should be preserved. Here, we apply in situ monitoring to study the interaction of P with vicinal Ge(100):As surfaces under realistic, GaAs-rich CVD reactor conditions at growth temperature. In situ optical spectroscopy in combination with surface science techniques in ultra-high vacuum ambience is used to investigate the Ge(100) surface. We show that different Ge(100):As/P heterointerfaces are formed depending on the applied molar flow of phosphorus precursors. Despite the lattice-matched quality of the probing III-P layer, this critical heterointerface impacts significantly the surface roughness and the formation of crystal defects in the subsequently grown III-P buffer layers.
Distribution temperature calculations by fitting the Planck radiation curve to a measured spectrum (1992)

A method of calculating distribution temperatures by numerically fitting Planck radiation curves to measured spectra is discussed. Numerically generated spectra were used to test the method and to determine the sensitivity to noise and the effects of linear emissivity changes. A comparison with the multiple-pair method of calculating color temperature as described in a previous paper [Appl. Opt. 27, 4073 (1988)] is presented. It was found that the method described here is ~ 2 times less sensitive to noise than the previously described method. Nonconstant emissivity (the linear model) produces the same effect on calculated distribution temperatures regardless of the calculating method.
North American continent-ocean transitions over Phanerozoic time (1994)

Abstract This chapter presents a synthesis of the structure and Phanerozoic tectonic evolution of continent-ocean transitions around nearly the entire North American continent. Its objectives are to compare and contrast the modern transitions and Phanerozoic histories of specific margins of North America discussed in other chapters of this book and in the Transect displays (see Foreword) and to present ideas on processes in the evolution of continent-ocean transitions. A word about the focus on the continent’s margins and their place in the global scheme of tectonics may be warranted. The modern transitions between the North American continent and adjoining oceanic basins are where plate tectonics has most recently affected the continent aside from rigid translation. At active margins, where oceanic lithosphere underrides or slides along the continent, the development of the margin is ongoing and may have been continuous over a long time. In contrast, at passive margins where the continent has split and sea-floor spreading has occurred, the continent-ocean transition was developed in a discrete event and was discontinuous in time. At passive margins, the most recent North American transitions range from Holocene to mid-Mesozoic. At collisional margins, where the North American continent is or was on the underriding plate, the development of the margin was also discrete and discontinuous. As with passive margins, an existing collisional margin is generally the product of an ancient event. During the development of all margin types, the motions between the North American plate and adjacent plates have commonly been broadly distributed and nonuniform

Therapeutic Effect of Cytomedicine on Mesangio-Proliferative Glomerulonephritis in Human Interleukin-6 Transgenic Mice. (1997)

We previously demonstrated that IgG1 plasmacytosis in human interleukin-6 transgenic mice (hIL-6 Tgm) was suppressed by the implantation of SK2 hybridoma cells (SK2 cells, which secrete anti-hIL-6 monoclonal antibodies) microencapsulated in a semipermeable and biocompatible device. In this study, we demonstrated that the mesangio-proliferative glomerulonephritis in hIL-6 Tgm was also improved by the same treatment. These results strongly support the concept of cytomedicine, which is a novel drug delivery system (DDS) using living cells. However, an electron microscopy study showed that cytomedicine has a limited duration of effectiveness because of the disappearance of space for cell proliferation in the microcapsule. Thus, the control of cell proliferation in a device must be developed to prolong the function and effectiveness of cytomedicine.

Transient Heart Rate Reduction Improves Acute Decompensated Heart Failure-Induced Left Ventricular and Coronary Dysfunction (2021)

In a model mimicking human ADHF, early, but not delayed, transient HRR induced by the I<sub>f</sub> current inhibitor S38844 opposes acute decompensation by preventing the decompensated-related aggravation of cardiovascular dysfunction as well as the development of pulmonary congestion, and these protective effects persist beyond the transient treatment. Whether early transient HRR induced by I<sub>f</sub> current inhibitors or other bradycardic agents, i.e. beta-blockers, exerts beneficial effects in human ADHF warrants further investigation.

This paper presents an integrated nanofluidic diode biosensor based on a single asymmetric nanoslit with a nominal width of 30 nm. The nanoslit dimension is fine-tuned by the highly conformal atomic layer deposition (ALD) of Al <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> O <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> . The surface of the nanoslit is further modified with an ultra-thin layer of SiO <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> that is placed onto the Al <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> O <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> layer for improved sensing performance. The device has been demonstrated for electrical label-free detection of human cardiac troponin biomarker at clinically relevant concentrations across a range over four orders of magnitudes. The precise control of the slit dimension and its robust sensing performance could pave the way for the single-slit nanofluidic diode biosensor as a promising diagnostic tool for acute myocardial infarction.

The Place of Religion in Devolved Scottish Politics: An Interest Group Analysis of the Church of Scotland and Scottish Catholic Church (2007)

On the 6 September 2005, Jack McConnell unveiled the Scottish Executive's new nineteen month long legislative programme. A wide-ranging agenda, it promised, amongst other things, a cut in business tax rates, the introduction of a greater range of sentencing options for courts as part of a general crackdown on public order, and the abolition of school boards. Similar policy themes were evident in the 2004 programme, when Mr McConnell labelled the Executive's proposals 'modern laws for a modern Scotland'. However, the piece of legislation which many commentators chose to focus on was the plan to bring Scottish family law into line with England and allow same-sex, unmarried couples to adopt. More than five years on from 'Section 28*, the Scottish Executive was once again preparing to tackle a controversial 'moral' issue which would inevitably bring it into conflict with significant sections of Scottish society and, in particular, the Scottish churches.
All-Glass Single-Mode Leakage Channel Microstructured Optical Fibers with Large Mode Area and Low Bending Loss (2023)

The paper presents the results of theoretical and experimental studies of all-glass leakage channel microstructured optical fibers (MOFs) with a large mode area and low bending losses. These MOFs contain two layers of fluorine-doped silica glass elements with a reduced refractive index, different diameters, and different distances between them. A numerical analysis of the properties of these MOFs was performed using the finite element method. The leakage losses for the fundamental and higher-order modes were calculated in the spectral range from 0.65 μm to 1.65 μm. Simulation results show that the proposed MOF design allows for single-mode guidance in the spectral range from 0.92 μm to 1.21 μm with a bending radius of down to 0.08 m. The measured losses of the fabricated MOF with a core diameter of 22.5 μm and a bending radius of 0.1 m were less than 0.1 dB/m in the spectral range from 0.9 μm to 1.5 μm. It is demonstrated that the segments of this MOF longer than 5 m are single-mode.
Validated Chiral LC-ESI-MS/MS Method for the Simultaneous Quantification of Darolutamide Diastereomers and Its Active Metabolite in Mice Plasma: Application to a Pharmacokinetic Study (2018)

A simple, selective and reliable LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantitation of darolutamide diastereomers (diastereomer-1 and diastereomer-2) and its active metabolite i. e. ORM-15341 in mice plasma using warfarin as an internal standard (IS) as per the regulatory guidelines. Plasma samples were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction and the chromatographic separation was achieved on a Chiralpak IA column with an isocratic mobile phase 5 mM ammonium acetate:absolute alcohol (20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Detection and quantitation was done by multiple reaction monitoring on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer following the transitions: <i>m/z</i> 397→202, 395→202 and 307→250 for darolutamide diastereomers, ORM-15341 and the IS, respectively in the negative ionization mode. The calibration curves were linear (r>0.992) in the range of 100-2400 ng/mL for all the analytes. The intra- and inter-day precisions were in the range of 1.25-10.2 and 1.58-12.3; 2.85-5.68 and 1.85-9.58; 2.34-12.1 and 2.58-7.38 for diastereomer-1, diastereomer-2 and ORM-15341, respectively. Both diastereomers and ORM-15341 were found to be stable under different stability conditions. The validated method was applied to a pharmacokinetic study in mice.

Determination of PAHs in soil leachates by magnetic solid-phase extraction using nanoparticles and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (2014)

A magnetic solid-phase extraction (mSPE) method, using palmitate coated magnetite nanoparticles, coupled with gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was developed for the extraction of 16 PAHs from soil leachates. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis showed CH2 peaks in the region about 2900 cm−1 and CO peaks in the region about 1500 cm−1 which confirmed that palmitate was successfully attached to the surface of Fe3O4 particles. The optimal extraction conditions for these particles were: 200 mg of modified magnetite nanoparticles, 50 mL of soil leachate containing 2.5% of acetone, 45 min of mSPE and elution of the analytes with ethyl acetate. The efficiency of the nanoparticles for the extraction of PAHs from soil leachates was evaluated. Recoveries of these contaminants from soil leachates spiked at three different fortification levels, from 0.2 to 1 ng mL−1, were low for the four PAHs with lower molecular weights but satisfactory recoveries were obtained for the rest. The developed method provided a pre-concentration factor of, at least, 50 and the limits of detection ranged from 0.8 to 5.1 ng L−1. Finally, the developed method was successfully applied to examine soil leachates obtained from soils with different physico-chemical characteristics, the soil organic matter content being one important parameter that may explain, together with other factors, the amount of PAHs present in these leachates. The present work demonstrates the applicability of the developed method for the determination of PAHs in soil leachates, which is of interest for the mobility and bioavailability studies of these pollutants in soil.
The Japan Neurosurgical Database: Statistics Update 2018 and 2019 (2021)

Each year, the Japan Neurosurgical Society (JNS) reports up-to-date statistics from the Japan Neurosurgical Database regarding case volume, patient demographics, and in-hospital outcomes of the overall cohort and neurosurgical subgroup according to the major classifications of main diagnosis. We hereby report patient demographics, in-hospital mortality, length of hospital stay, purpose of admission, number of medical management, direct surgery, endovascular treatment, and radiosurgery of the patients based on the major classifications and/or main diagnosis registered in 2018 and 2019 in the overall cohort (523283 and 571143 patients, respectively) and neurosurgical subgroup (177184 and 191595 patients, respectively). The patient demographics, disease severity, proportion of purpose of admission (e.g., operation, 33.9-33.5%) and emergent admission (68.4-67.8%), and in-hospital mortality (e.g., cerebrovascular diseases, 6.3-6.5%; brain tumor, 3.1-3%; and neurotrauma, 4.3%) in the overall cohort were comparable between 2018 and 2019. In total, 207783 and 225217 neurosurgical procedures were performed in the neurosurgical subgroup in 2018 and 2019, respectively, of which endovascular treatment comprised 19.1% and 20.3%, respectively. Neurosurgical management of chronic subdural hematoma (19.4-18.9%) and cerebral aneurysm (15.4-14.8%) was most common. Notably, the proportion of management of ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack, including recombinant tissue plasminogen activator infusion and endovascular acute reperfusion therapy, increased from 7.5% in 2018 to 8.8% in 2019. The JNS statistical update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policy makers, media professionals, neurosurgeons, healthcare administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on neurosurgical practice.
Key technologies for 500-MHz VLSI system ULTIMATE (2003)

Technologies needed for constructing ULTIMATE, including an 8-ps-resolution timing generator, a formatter with a real-time waveform control function, a 2.5-ps-resolution standard comparator, and a miniaturized 3-GHz 59-pole channel selector are described. Almost all the pin-electronics hardware has been integrated on twelve kinds of LSIs, eight of which are 2.5 K-gate and 400-gate ultrahigh-speed bipolar gate arrays. ULTIMATE realizes +or-55-ps overall timing accuracy by the timing calibration method which combines a standard comparator-based method and a TDR (time-domain reflectometry)-based method.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
Error Rate Performance of Multilevel Signals with Coherent Detection (2008)

In this paper, coherent detection for multilevel correlated signaling sets in additive white Gaussian noise is addressed. From the decision rule, a general analytical expression for the symbol error probability (SEP) is derived, which is in the form of a single integral. Our new result is not only in agreement with a known equivalent expression, but it also has a much simpler analytical form. The structure of the correlation matrix under consideration of the signaling set is quite generic, including various known signaling sets as special cases. Hence the derived SEP expression is useful for analyzing the performance of various coherent modulation schemes such as multilevel phase-shift and frequency-shift keying. Specific correlation structures which minimize the SEP are also studied. Based on eigendecomposition or LU decomposition, generic methods for constructing a correlated signaling set for any correlation matrix under consideration are also provided.
