Halide Effects in the Formation of Four-Coordinate, Cationic Aluminum (1996)

This work was conducted as part of a broad-based effort to determine the factors that affect cation formation for organometallic aluminum complexes. In this study the adduct species R(2)AlX.NH(2)(t)Bu (R, X: Me, F (1); Me, Cl (2); Et, Cl (3); Me, Br (4)) and cationic complexes [R(2)Al(NH(2)(t)Bu)(2)]X (R, X: Me, Br (5); Et, Br (6); Me, I (7)) were examined. These complexes demonstrate that the reaction of R(2)AlX with excess NH(2)(t)Bu produces cationic complexes only when X = Br or I. All of the compounds were characterized by melting points, (1)H NMR, IR, elemental analyses, and, in some cases, X-ray crystallography.

Computer-generated holograms generation of a real 3D object using depth-data extracted from integral imaging technique (2006)

Stereo matching, a technique for acquiring depth information from many images obtained by several cameras, was developed several decades ago. Recently a technique that use a lens array instead of several cameras have regarded as one of a novel depth-extraction technique because of the advantages offered by its simple system configuration. In this paper, a novel method using integral imaging (II) technique to generate the computer-generated hologram (CGH) patterns of a real three-dimensional (3D) object is proposed. Elemental images of a real 3D object are captured by an II pick up system and the captured images are modified. Disparity maps are estimated from the modified images. Then, depth data for each pixel of the object can be extracted on the frame basis from these estimated maps. Using these depth data and original color images, hologram patterns of a real object can be computationally generated. In the experiment, the character 'K' and 'W' were used as a real 3D object. Elemental images of 'K' and 'W' are captured by using the digital camera and micro lens array. And its depth data are extracted from them. Then, CGH patterns are generated with these depth-annotated images of 'K' and 'W'. Finally, the patterns are experimentally displayed via a holographic display system.
A simulated annealing method for mapping production systems onto multicomputers (2002)

A methodology for mapping rule-based expert systems onto a message-passing multicomputer is presented. The method is based on static load balancing using simulated annealing to achieve a nearly optimal allocation of multiple production rules to processor nodes. The goal is to balance the initial load distribution and to avoid serious communication overhead among processor nodes at run time. A formal model is developed and a cost function is defined in the annealing process. Heuristic swap functions and cooling policies which ensure the efficiency and quality of the annealing process are given. A software load-balancing package is implemented on a SUN 3/280 workstation to carry out the benchmark experiments. The overhead associated with this mapping method is O(m ln m), where m is the number of production rules in the system. The Monkey and Bananas expert system with 24 rules is mapped onto an 8-node hypercube. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of the mapping method. The method can be applied in practical parallel production systems and to achieve scalability in performance.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Phenotypic and physiologic characterization of transgenic mice expressing interleukin 4 in the lung: lymphocytic and eosinophilic inflammation without airway hyperreactivity. (1996)

To investigate the contribution of interleukin-4 (IL-4) to airway inflammation in vivo and to explore directly its relationship to airway reactivity, we created transgenic mice in which the murine cDNA for IL-4 was regulated by the rat Clara cell 10 protein promoter. Expression was detected only in the lung and not in thymus, heart, liver, spleen, kidney, or uterus. The expression of IL-4 elicited hypertrophy of epithelial cells of the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. Hypertrophy is due, at least in part, to the accumulation of mucus glycoprotein. Histologic examination of parenchyma revealed multinucleated macrophages and occasional islands of cells consisting largely of eosinophils or lymphocytes. Analysis of lung lavage fluid revealed the presence of a leukocytic infiltrate consisting of lymphocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils. Mice expressing IL-4 had greater baseline airway resistance but did not demonstrate hyperreactivity to methacholine. Thus, the expression of IL-4 selectively within the lung elicits an inflammatory response characterized by epithelial cell hypertrophy, and the accumulation of macrophages, lymphocytes, eosinophils, and neutrophils without resulting in an alteration in airway reactivity to inhaled methacholine.
Garantías internacionales sobre elementos de equipo móvil: España se adhiere al Convenio de Ciudad del Cabo (BOE de 4 de octubre de 2013) (2013)

Las garantias sobre bienes de equipo estan basadas en sistemas de inscripcion en registros locales que, en contextos internacionales, hacen dificilmente conciliables la explotacion adecuada de bienes sujetos a gran movilidad y la consistencia de la garantia, cuya eficacia queda limitada al pais donde la misma se registro. Esta situacion pretende ser superada a traves del Convenio de Ciudad del Cabo, al que Espana acaba de adherirse. En este trabajo se analiza el impacto de esta regulacion en las operaciones que tengan por objeto bienes de equipo situados en Espana o creditos asegurados con garantia internacional, asi como las ventajas sobre las garantias mobiliarias espanolas y la situacion de las mismas tras la entrada en vigor del Convenio.
Clinical efficacy of three common treatments in acute otitis externa in primary care: randomised controlled trial (2003)

Iodine propellant for electric propulsion - To be or not to be (2001)

In the paper some of condensable potential propellants for Hall thrusters are considered. Such thrusters can be used as perspective high power propulsion system for the Mars mission , for example. On the assumption of such criteria as: TAL efficiency ensuring, propellant availability, ground testing costs reducing, features of impact of condensable propellants on space craft possibility of different propellants use is considered. In comparison one of base option is used Lithium MPD, which have been designed for the megawatt level high power electric thrust module. It is shown that application of iodine, cadmium and bismuth as a propellant for the Hall thrusters may become real alternative for a lithium MPD.
Hunting for naval mines with deep neural networks (2017)

Explosive naval mines pose a threat to ocean and sea faring vessels, both military and civilian. This work applies deep neural network (DNN) methods to the problem of detecting minelike objects (MLO) on the seafloor in side-scan sonar imagery. We explored how the DNN depth, memory requirements, calculation requirements, and training data distribution affect detection efficacy. A visualization technique (class activation map) was incorporated that aids a user in interpreting the model's behavior. We found that modest DNN model sizes yielded better accuracy (98%) than very simple DNN models (93%) and a support vector machine (78%). The largest DNN models achieved <1% efficacy increase at a cost of a 17x increase of trainable parameter count and computation requirements. In contrast to DNNs popularized for many-class image recognition tasks, the models for this task require far fewer computational resources (0.3% of parameters), and are suitable for embedded use within an autonomous unmanned underwater vehicle.
Measurement of tissue optical properties in the context of tissue optical clearing (2018)

Nowadays, dynamically developing optical (photonic) technologies play an ever-increasing role in medicine. Their adequate and effective implementation in diagnostics, surgery, and therapy needs reliable data on optical properties of human tissues, including skin. This paper presents an overview of recent results on the measurements and control of tissue optical properties. The issues reported comprise a brief review of optical properties of biological tissues and efficacy of optical clearing (OC) method in application to monitoring of diabetic complications and visualization of blood vessels and microcirculation using a number of optical imaging technologies, including spectroscopic, optical coherence tomography, and polarization- and speckle-based ones. Molecular modeling of immersion OC of skin and specific technique of OC of adipose tissue by its heating and photodynamic treatment are also discussed.
Generalization of <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M1"><mml:mi>h</mml:mi></mml:math>-Convex Stochastic Processes and Some Classical Inequalities (2020)

The field of stochastic processes is essentially a branch of probability theory, treating probabilistic models that evolve in time. It is best viewed as a branch of mathematics, starting with the axioms of probability and containing a rich and fascinating set of results following from those axioms. In probability theory, a convex function applied to the expected value of a random variable is always bounded above by the expected value of the convex function of the random variable. In this paper, the concept of generalized <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M2"><mml:mi>h</mml:mi></mml:math>-convex stochastic processes is introduced, and some basic properties concerning generalized <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M3"><mml:mi>h</mml:mi></mml:math>-convex stochastic processes are developed. Furthermore, we establish Jensen and Hermite–Hadamard and Fejér-type inequalities for this generalization.
Graphite Intercalation Compounds AS Positives in Rechargeable Metalfree Batteries (1994)

Abstract Two essentially metalfree rechargeable batteries are described, containing graphite salts as a positive. The one has a blend of anthraquinone/carbon black to form the negative and an aqueous electrolyte (8 M HBF4). The other is a nonaqueous system (0.2 M LiCIO4 in propylenecarbonate) and makes use of an electrodeposited polypyrrole layer on carbon black filled polypropylene. Results of cycling these prototypes of a secondary battery at current densities of 3 and 0.5 mA cm−2, respectivily, are reported in detail.
The Berkeley Data Analytics Stack: Present and future (2013)

The Berkeley AMPLab was founded on the idea that the challenges of emerging Big Data applications requires a new approach to analytics systems. Launching in early 2011, the project set out to rethink the traditional analytics stack, breaking down technical and intellectual barriers that had arisen during decades of evolutionary development. The vision of the lab is to seamlessly integrate the three main resources available for making sense of data at scale: Algorithms (such as machine learning and statistical techniques), Machines (in the form of scalable clusters and elastic cloud computing), and People (both individually as analysts and en masse, as with crowdsourced human computation). To pursue this goal, we assembled a research team with diverse interests across computer science, forged relationships with domain experts on campus and elsewhere, and obtained the support of leading industry partners and major government sponsors. The lab is realizing its ideas through the development of a freely-available Open Source software stack called BDAS: the Berkeley Data Analytics Stack. In the nearly three years the lab has been in operation, we've released major components of BDAS. Several of these components have gained significant traction in industry and elsewhere: the Mesos cluster resource manager, the Spark inmemory computation framework, and the Shark query processing system. BDAS shows up prominently in many industry discussions of the future of the Big Data analytics ecosystem - a rare degree of impact for an ongoing academic project. Given this initial success, the lab is continuing on its research path, moving "up the stack" to better integrate and support deep machine learning and to make people a full-fledged resource for making sense of Big Data. In this talk, I'll first outline the motivation and insights behind our research approach and describe how we have organized to address the cross-disciplinary nature of Big Data challenges. I will then describe the current state of BDAS with an emphasis on the key components listed above and will address our current efforts on machine learning scalability and ease of use, and hybrid human/computer processing. Finally I will present our current views of how all the pieces will fit together to form a system that can adaptively bring the right resources to bear on a given data-driven question to meet time, cost and quality requirements throughout the analytics lifecycle.

Mobile app conceptual browser: Online marketplaces information extraction (2016)

Online marketplaces are e-commerce websites where thousands of products are provided by multiple third parties. There are dozens of these differently structured marketplaces that need to be visited by the end users to reach their targets. This searching process consumes a lot of time and effort; moreover it negatively affects the user experience. In this paper, extensive analysis and evaluation of the existing e-marketplaces are performed to improve the end-users experience through a Mobile App. The main goal of this study is to find a solution that is capable of integrating multiple heterogeneous hidden data sources and unify the received responses into one single, structured and homogeneous source. Furthermore, the user can easily choose the desired product or reformulate the query through the interface. The proposed Android Mobile App is based on the multi-level conceptual analysis and modeling discipline, in which, data are analyzed in a way that helps in discovering the main concepts of any unknown domain captured from the hidden web. These concepts discovered through information extraction are then structured into a tree-based interface for easy navigation and query reformulation. The application has been evaluated through substantial experiments and compared to other existing mobile applications. The results showed that analyzing the query results and re-structuring the output before displaying to the end-user in a conceptual multilevel mechanism are reasonably effective in terms of number of clicks, time taken and number of navigation screens. Based on the proposed intelligent application, the interface is minimized to only two navigation screens, and the time needed to browse products from multiple marketplaces is kept reasonable in order to reach the target product.

Inflammation and depression: a causal or coincidental link to the pathophysiology? (2017)

This review summarises the evidence that chronic low grade inflammation triggers changes that contribute to the mental and physical ill health of patients with major depression. Inflammation, and the activation of the hypothalamic pituitary axis by stress, are normal components of the stress response but when stress is prolonged and the endocrine and immune system become chronic resulting in the activation of the peripheral macrophages, the central microglia and hypercortisolemia, the neuronal networks are damaged and become dysfunctional. The proinflammatory cytokines, in addition to activating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and thereby increasing cortisol synthesis, also activate the tryptophan-kynurenine pathway. This results in the synthesis of the neurotoxic N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate agonist quinolinic acid and 3-hydroxykynurenine thereby enhancing oxidative stress and contributes to neurodegeneration which characterise major depression particularly in late life.While antidepressants attenuate some of the endocrine and immune changes caused by inflammation, not all therapeutically effective antidepressants do so. This suggests that drugs which specifically target the immune, endocrine and neurotransmitter systems may be more effective antidepressants.The preliminary clinical evidence that some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as the cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor celecoxib, can enhance the response to standard antidepressant treatment is therefore considered and a critical assessment made of the possible limitations of such an approach to novel antidepressant development.

H.264 is an advanced video compression standard, absorbing the advantages of the previous standards. In this paper, block-based stereoscopic video coding is studied, and some schemes of using H.264 are discussed. The stereoscopic video coding methods based on H.264 and based on H.263+ are also compared by the experiments, experimental results shove that the former is more effective than the latter in compression efficiency and image quality, and the H.264-based stereoscopic video coding scheme with temporal scalability is quite effective.
Development of the Intelligent Power Unit for the V6 Hybrid Midsize Sedan (2005)

<div class="htmlview paragraph">The Intelligent Power Unit (IPU) of the Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) system was developed with the dual objectives of increased output and reduced size. To realize miniaturization and to reduce energy losses, fine patterning of IGBT chips in the inverter was conducted, transfer mold power modules were used, and film capacitors were integrated in the unit. Parts integration by digital control was performed in the 12V DC-DC converter. The internal resistance was reduced and the output increased of the IMA battery by changing the construction of the current collector and increasing the length of the electrodes. The battery box was made of a new design enabling easy assembly. The cooling system construction of the box was modified, and the pitch between the modules was reduced, enabling the battery box to be made more compact.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">Thanks to the technological developments mentioned above, an increase in output of 20% and a reduction in size of 20% were achieved simultaneously for the new IPU, ensuring adequate running performance and cabin space befitting mid-size four-door sedans.</div>
