Data Loss and Reconstruction in Wireless Sensor Networks (2013)

Reconstructing the environment by sensory data is a fundamental operation for understanding the physical world in depth. A lot of basic scientific work (e.g., nature discovery, organic evolution) heavily relies on the accuracy of environment reconstruction. However, data loss in wireless sensor networks is common and has its special patterns due to noise, collision, unreliable link, and unexpected damage, which greatly reduces the reconstruction accuracy. Existing interpolation methods do not consider these patterns and thus fail to provide a satisfactory accuracy when the missing data rate becomes large. To address this problem, this paper proposes a novel approach based on compressive sensing to reconstruct the massive missing data. Firstly, we analyze the real sensory data from Intel Indoor, GreenOrbs, and Ocean Sense projects. They all exhibit the features of low-rank structure, spatial similarity, temporal stability and multi-attribute correlation. Motivated by these observations, we then develop an environmental space time improved compressive sensing (ESTI-CS) algorithm with a multi-attribute assistant (MAA) component for data reconstruction. Finally, extensive simulation results on real sensory datasets show that the proposed approach significantly outperforms existing solutions in terms of reconstruction accuracy.
SSN: Learning Sparse Switchable Normalization via SparsestMax (2019)

Normalization methods improve both optimization and generalization of ConvNets. To further boost performance, the recently-proposed switchable normalization (SN) provides a new perspective for deep learning: it learns to select different normalizers for different convolution layers of a ConvNet. However, SN uses softmax function to learn importance ratios to combine normalizers, leading to redundant computations compared to a single normalizer. This work addresses this issue by presenting Sparse Switchable Normalization (SSN) where the importance ratios are constrained to be sparse. Unlike $\ell_1$ and $\ell_0$ constraints that impose difficulties in optimization, we turn this constrained optimization problem into feed-forward computation by proposing SparsestMax, which is a sparse version of softmax. SSN has several appealing properties. (1) It inherits all benefits from SN such as applicability in various tasks and robustness to a wide range of batch sizes. (2) It is guaranteed to select only one normalizer for each normalization layer, avoiding redundant computations. (3) SSN can be transferred to various tasks in an end-to-end manner. Extensive experiments show that SSN outperforms its counterparts on various challenging benchmarks such as ImageNet, Cityscapes, ADE20K, and Kinetics.

Mutations, duplication, and deletion of recombined switch regions suggest a role for DNA replication in the immunoglobulin heavy-chain switch. (1989)

The heavy-chain switch from immunoglobulin M (IgM) expression to IgA expression is mediated by a recombination event between segments of DNA called switch regions. The switch regions lie two to six kilobases upstream of the mu and alpha constant region coding segments. Switch recombination to IgA expression results in a recombinant mu-alpha switch region upstream of the expressed alpha constant region gene. We have characterized the products of switch recombination by a lymphoma cell line, I.29. Two sets of molecular clones represent the expected products of simple mu to alpha switches. Five members of a third set of molecular clones share the same recombination site in both the mu and the alpha switch regions, implying that the five molecular clones were derived from a single switch recombination event. Surprisingly, the five clones fall into two sets of sequences, which differ from each other by several point mutations and small deletions. Duplication of switch region sequences are also found in these five molecular clones. An explanation for these data is that switch recombination involves DNA synthesis, which results in nucleotide substitutions, small deletions, and duplications.
Estimating the Minimum Distance of Large-Block Turbo Codes using Iterative Multiple-Impulse Methods (2006)

A difficult problem for turbo codes is the efficient and accurate determination of the distance spectrum, or even just the minimum distance, for specific interleavers. This is especially true for large blocks, with many thousands of data bits, if the distance is high. This paper compares a number of recent distance estimation techniques and introduces a new approach, based on using specific event impulse patterns and iterative processing, that is specifically tailored to handle long interleavers with high spread. The new method is as reliable as two previous iterative multiple-impulse methods, but with much lower complexity. A minimum distance of 60 has been estimated for a rate 1/3, 8-state, turbo code with a dithered relative prime (DRP) interleaver of length K=65,536.
Fully automated adipose tissue measurement on abdominal CT (2011)

Obesity has become widespread in America and has been associated as a risk factor for many illnesses. Adipose tissue (AT) content, especially visceral AT (VAT), is an important indicator for risks of many disorders, including heart disease and diabetes. Measuring adipose tissue (AT) with traditional means is often unreliable and inaccurate. CT provides a means to measure AT accurately and consistently. We present a fully automated method to segment and measure abdominal AT in CT. Our method integrates image preprocessing which attempts to correct for image artifacts and inhomogeneities. We use fuzzy cmeans to cluster AT regions and active contour models to separate subcutaneous and visceral AT. We tested our method on 50 abdominal CT scans and evaluated the correlations between several measurements.
Orders and Disorders, Wills To Powers - Arlt and Nietzsche, the Astrólogo and the sociedad secreta (2013)

In his essay, “On Nietzsche’s Side,” Maurice Blanchot says of Nietzsche, “Transcendence obsesses him, as that which he must endlessly surmount to be free.” The same can be said of Roberto Arlt – himself a reader and a student of Nietzsche – and his own obsession with order. These obsessions with transcendence and order take on peculiar and contradictory modes of expression in both thinkers, as they often contort what might otherwise be common notions. Under the influence of Nietzsche, Arlt’s delirious yet methodically contradictory thought thus deforms and even does violence unto that which it treats and unto itself. Consequently, when critiquing Arlt’s novels, Los siete locos and Los lanzallamas, it is impossible to ascertain which side Arlt, Arlt’s most Nietzschean character, the Astrólogo, and Arlt’s most Nietzschean literary invention, la sociedad socreta, are on when it comes to notions of order and disorder. This impossibility makes it all the more necessary that critical readings of Arlt and Nietzsche be resistant, that is, creative, in turn and in kind. What results is a polifacetic assemblage of variable and shifting sides which offer an Arltian prismatic of Nietzsche’s thought that is as opaque as it is transparent, as colorful as it is dark.
Optimization of interference coordination schemes in Device-to-Device(D2D) communication (2012)

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is considered to be a promising resource reuse technology for local services, to meet the system demands of higher data rates and spectrum efficiency in future networks. In order to limit severe interference between cellular links and local D2D links, previous studies mainly focus on one or two functional blocks, such as power control and resource allocation, which seems inadequate for further exploiting D2D's potential. In this paper, several interference coordination schemes, including centralized power control, resource allocation and mode selection strategy and distributed self-optimization mechanism, are proposed. Based on the proposed optimization schemes, we provide the system performance of the D2D-enabled network and analyze the impact of local service ratio and user density. Numerical results show that D2D underlay communication can increase spectrum efficiency and provide more local service opportunities compared to pure cellular communication.
Lewis Acid-Catalyzed Ring-Opening Reactions of Methylenecyclopropanes with Alcoholic or Acidic Nucleophiles (2002)

[reaction: see text] Methylenecyclopropanes can react with various nucleophiles such as alcohols, phenols, carboxylic acids, and thiols to give the corresponding homoallylic esters or ethers in good yields with good stereoselectivities in the presence of Lewis acids.
Social regulation of gene expression in human leukocytes (2007)

These data provide the first indication that human genome-wide transcriptional activity is altered in association with a social epidemiological risk factor. Impaired transcription of glucocorticoid response genes and increased activity of pro-inflammatory transcription control pathways provide a functional genomic explanation for elevated risk of inflammatory disease in individuals who experience chronically high levels of subjective social isolation.
Dendrimers as Building Blocks for Nanostructured Materials:  Micro- and Mesoporosity in Dendrimer-Based Xerogels (1999)

Second and third generation silylalkoxy-terminated carbosilane dendrimers have been used to make high surface area xerogels via an acid-catalyzed sol-gel protocol. These xerogels are micro- and mesoporous and contain a high degree of −OH functionality. An unexpected trend with respect to dendrimer generation and xerogel surface area is described. These xerogels may have applications as (for example) catalyst supports and porous membranes.

Manipulation of micro- and nanostructure motion with magnetic fields (2013)

In this review we will focus on how magnetic fields can be used to manipulate the motion of various micro- and nanostructures in solution. We will distinguish between ferromagnetic, paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials. Furthermore, the use of various kinds of magnetic fields, such as homogeneous, inhomogeneous and rotating magnetic fields, is discussed. To date most research has focused on the use of ferro- and paramagnetic materials, but here we also describe the possibilities of magnetic manipulation of diamagnetic materials. Since the vast majority of soft matter is diamagnetic, this paves the way for many new applications to manipulate the motion of micro- and nanostructures.

Integrity Protection of NDEF Message with Flexible and Enhanced NFC Signature Records (2015)

The NFC-Forum released a specification of Signature Record Type Definition (SRTD) shortly after the attacks related to NFC tags surfaced in 2009. The specification adds digital signatures to provide authenticity and integrity to the NFC Data Exchange Format (NDEF) messages. However, the specification in its current form has some shortcomings. For instance it has very limited options for signature algorithms. Further there is no fully-compliant implementation of the SRTD and the application developers might end up implementing their own integrity solution in non-standard (non-compliant to SRTD) way. In this paper, we revamp the current SRTD specification to improve its deficiencies. First, we propose a larger and more flexible combination of signature algorithms for efficient authentication of tag data. Subsequently, we develop a fully compliant prototype of our modified SRTD with all the standard authentication/certification primitives on NFC-based tags and Smartphone. Finally, we perform an in-depth performance evaluation of different signing and verification operations that focuses on execution time and data overheads.
Interaction of ultrasonic waves incident at the Rayleigh angle onto a liquid-solid interface (1977)

The behavior of a Gaussian ultrasonic beam incident on a liquid-solid interface at the Rayleigh angle, the angle at which surface waves are excited on the interface, has been studied in some detail. The reflected beam is displaced in the manner predicted by Schoch; however, the ’’Schoch displacement’’ in general is too large. Good agreement is obtained between experimental results and the theory of Bertoni and Tamir, which assumes that the incident beam couples resonantly into a leaky surface wave at the Rayleigh angle and that the energy reradiated from this leaky surface wave interferes with specularly reflected energy. The propagation distance of the ultrasonic beam is explicitly included in describing the ultrasonic wave reflection at the Rayleigh angle.
Hardware-accelerated point-based rendering of complex scenes (2002)

High quality point rendering methods have been developed in the last years. A common drawback of these approaches is the lack of hardware support. We propose a novel point rendering technique that yields good image quality while fully making use of hardware acceleration.Previous research revealed various advantages and drawbacks of point rendering over traditional rendering. Thus, a guideline in our algorithm design has been to allow both primitive types simultaneously and dynamically choose the best suited for rendering. An octree-based spatial representation, containing both triangles and sampled points, is used for level-of-detail and visibility calculations. Points in each block are stored in a generalized layered depth image. McMillan's algorithm is extended and hierarchically applied in the octree to warp overlapping Gaussian fuzzy splats in occlusion-compatible order and hence z-buffer tests are avoided. We show how to use off-the-shelf hardware to draw elliptical Gaussian splats oriented according to normals and to perform texture filtering. The result is a hybrid polygon-point system with increased efficiency compared to previous approaches.
Unified inventory of established and putative transporters encoded within the complete genome of <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> (1998)

We present the complete inventory of currently recognized and putative transporters encoded within the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These 258 transporters are classified into 42 families according to phylogenetic and substrate specificity criteria. Twelve of these yeast families are found only in eukaryotic organisms, and four are so far unique to yeast. Putative yeast-specific families transport heavy metals, arsenite and calcium. The phylogenetic analyses reported allow classification of 139 functionally uncharacterized yeast transporters into families of known functions. The relative proportions of yeast transporters specific for different classes of substrates differ only slightly from those reported for Escherichia coli. However, the ratio of secondary transporters (uniporters, cation symporters and antiporters) to primary ATP-driven transporters is much higher for yeast than for bacteria.
Scaling down contact length in complementary carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (2017)

We performed an experimental investigation on contact length (L<sub>c</sub>) scaling of carbon nanotube (CNT) complementary field-effect transistors (FETs). Contact resistances of Sc-contacted (for n-type) and Pd-contacted (for p-type) CNT FETs are respectively retrieved based on the experimental data through the transfer length method (TLM). The performance of L<sub>c</sub> scaling of Sc/CNT is proved to be comparable to that of the Pd/CNT contact with L<sub>c</sub> larger than approximately 40 nm, but it degrades sharply when further scaling down L<sub>c</sub> mainly owing to the surface oxidation of the Sc film. After decoupling the effect of oxide thickness, the intrinsic contact scaling behavior of Sc-contacted CNT FETs is found to be as good as that of the Pd-contacted ones, which can further satisfy the requirement of developing complementary CNT FET technology scaled down to the 14 nm node.
Current and Potential Applications of Bismuth-Based Drugs (2014)

: Bismuth compounds have been used extensively as medicines and in particular for the treatment of gastrointestinal ailments. In addition to bismuth's well known gastroprotective effects and efficacy in treating H. pylori infection it also has broad anti-microbial, anti-leishmanial and anti-cancer properties. Aspects of the biological chemistry of bismuth are discussed and biomolecular targets associated with bismuth treatment are highlighted. This review strives to provide the reader with an up to date account of bismuth-based drugs currently used to treat patients and discuss potential medicinal applications of bismuth drugs with reference to recent developments in the literature. Ultimately this review aims to encourage original contributions to this exciting and important field.
Structure and properties of high efficiency ZnO/CdZnS/CuInGaSe/sub 2/ solar cells (1990)

Thin-film polycrystalline solar cells with the structure ZnO/CdZnS/CuInGaSe/sub 2/ fabricated with total area efficiencies of up to 12.5% under AM1.5 equivalent illumination and 10.5% under AM0 equivalent are discussed. These are among the highest total area efficiencies reported for polycrystalline thin-film solar cells. Current-voltage and quantum efficiency data for such a high-efficiency cell are given. Described are the deposition of the CuInGaSe/sub 2/ by physical vapor deposition in vacuum, the CdZnS by chemical deposition from solution, and the ZnO by reactive sputtering. The electrical and optical properties of the individual layers have been inferred from measurements on complete devices and on separate witness layers. Optical constants and thicknesses obtained for the device layers from these measurements are presented, and the requirements for optimizing the device efficiency are discussed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Gene therapy for vision loss -- recent developments. (2010)

Retinal gene therapy mediated by adeno-associated virus (AAV) based gene transfer was recently proven to improve photoreceptor function in one form of inherited retinal blinding disorder associated with mutations in the RPE65 gene. Several clinical trials are currently ongoing, and more than 30 patients have been treated to date. Even though only a very limited number of patients will greatly benefit from this still experimental treatment protocol, the technique itself has been shown to be safe and will likely be used in other retinal disorders in the near future. A canine model for achromatopsia has been treated successfully as well as mouse models for different forms of Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). For patients with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP), a combined gene knockdown and gene addition therapy is being developed using RNA interference to block mRNA of the mutant allele. For those patients suffering from RP with unknown mutations, an AAV based transfer of bacterial forms of rhodopsin in the central retina might be an option to reactivate residual cones in the future.
High-quality ZnSe thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy (1983)

High-quality, nominally undoped, low-resistivity ZnSe thin films are grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The MBE ZnSe shows the largest peak intensity ratio of the near-band-edge emission to the deep center luminescence even at room temperature compared with other epitaxial techniques, which indicates the smallest concentration of complex defects in the MBE ZnSe. From the temperature dependence of electron mobility for MBE ZnSe, we obtained the mobility value as high as 6.9×103 cm2/Vs. This is the highest value ever obtained in epitaxial ZnSe films and indicates the concentration of isolated charged defects as low as 1×1016 cm−3.
The Performance of Fuel-Saving Engine Oils (1980)

<div class="htmlview paragraph">The fuel-saving capabilities of various experimental and commercial passenger car engine oils have been demonstrated in extensive studies. Lower viscosity oils and those containing friction-reducing additives have shown measurable fuel economy benefits in a wide range of laboratory and vehicle tests. Several test techniques are described for screening fuel-saving engine oils and components. Closely controlled chassis rolls and over-the-road vehicle tests are utilized to demonstrate the actual lubricant-related fuel economy benefits.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">Within the range of variables included in this study, reducing engine oil viscosity is the most effective way to improve fuel economy. Fuel savings realized from friction-reducing additives are relatively modest and many of the more effective materials are shown to have poor performance in standard sequence tests, particularly regarding engine wear. The most appropriate fuel-saving engine oil should combine the benefits of low viscosity along with the use of a carefully selected and thoroughly tested friction-reducing additive.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">We strongly support industry efforts to standardize a test procedure for identifying fuel-saving engine oils. Based upon these studies and other investigations, the most suitable method for such a procedure are the EPA FTP and HWFET cycles.</div>
