CNNpack: packing convolutional neural networks in the frequency domain (2016)

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are successfully used in a number of applications. However, their storage and computational requirements have largely prevented their widespread use on mobile devices. Here we present an effective CNN compression approach in the frequency domain, which focuses not only on smaller weights but on all the weights and their underlying connections. By treating convolutional filters as images, we decompose their representations in the frequency domain as common parts (i.e., cluster centers) shared by other similar filters and their individual private parts (i.e., individual residuals). A large number of low-energy frequency coefficients in both parts can be discarded to produce high compression without significantly compromising accuracy. We relax the computational burden of convolution operations in CNNs by linearly combining the convolution responses of discrete cosine transform (DCT) bases. The compression and speed-up ratios of the proposed algorithm are thoroughly analyzed and evaluated on benchmark image datasets to demonstrate its superiority over state-of-the-art methods.
Cloud Generalized Power Ordered Weighted Average Operator and Its Application to Linguistic Group Decision-Making (2017)

In this paper, we develop a new linguistic aggregation operator based on the cloud model for solving linguistic group decision-making problem. First, an improved generating cloud method is proposed so as to transform linguistic variables into clouds, which modifies the limitation of the classical generating cloud method. We then address some new cloud algorithms, such as cloud possibility degree and cloud support degree which can be respectively used to compare clouds and determine the weights. Combining the cloud support degree with power aggregation operator, we develop a new cloud aggregation operator dubbed the cloud generalized power ordered weighted average (CGPOWA) operator. We study the properties of the CGPOWA operator and investigate its family including a wide range of aggregation operators such as the CGPA operator, CPOWA operator, CPOWGA operator, CPWQA operator, CWAA and CWGA operator. Furthermore, a new approach for linguistic group decision-making is presented on the basis of the improved generating cloud method and CGPOWA operator. Finally, an illustrative example is provided to examine the effectiveness and validity of the proposed approach.
Functionalized Spiroindolines with Anticancer Activity through a Metal‐Free Post‐Ugi Diastereoselective One‐Pot Cascade Reaction (2018)

A post-Ugi diastereoselective one-pot cascade reaction requiring no metal catalyst was developed. The reaction scope was wide with mild conditions and good yields. A collection of spiroindolines was prepared by the protocol and screening tests in several difficult-to-inhibit cancer cell lines were conducted. The relationship of structure and anticancer activities was promising and in the Huh7 cell lines compound 16 j is more potent than Vinbalstine. The cyclization design strategy could be applicable to other multicomponent reactions (MCRs) for synthesizing bioactive and drug-like heterocycles.
Massively Parallel Implementation of AC Machine Models for FPGA-Based Real-Time Simulation of Electromagnetic Transients (2010)

This paper presents a generalized, parallel implementation methodology for real-time simulation of ac machine transients in an FPGA-based real-time simulator. The proposed method adopts nanosecond range simulation time-step and exploits the large response time of a rotating machine to: 1) eliminate the need for predictive-corrective action for the machine electrical and mechanical variables, 2) decouple the solution of the dq0 stator currents, and 3) enable the use of one-time-step delayed interface between the machine and the rest of the system which decouples the machine solution from that of the rest of the system. The proposed method simplifies the solution of the machine model without compromising accuracy or numerical stability of the simulation. This paper also presents a massively parallel, customized hardware architecture tailored to the solution of the mathematical model of ac machines. The proposed method and the developed hardware architecture are tested and verified based on the implementation of a permanent-magnet synchronous machine model and an induction machine-based ac-drive system in a field-programmable gate-array-based simulator. Real-time simulation is achieved with a computation time of 44 ns within the simulation timestep.

Spectrum-Dependent Spiro-OMeTAD Oxidization Mechanism in Perovskite Solar Cells (2015)

We propose a spectrum-dependent mechanism for the oxidation of 2,2',7,7'-tetrakis(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9,9'-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD) with bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide lithium salt (LiTFSI), which is commonly used in perovskite solar cells as the hole transport layer. The perovskite layer plays different roles in the Spiro-OMeTAD oxidization for various spectral ranges. The effect of oxidized Spiro-OMeTAD on the solar cell performance was observed and characterized. With the initial long-wavelength illumination (>450 nm), the charge recombination at the TiO2/Spiro-OMeTAD interface was increased due to the higher amount of the oxidized Spiro-OMeTAD. On the other hand, the increased conductivity of the Spiro-OMeTAD layer and enhanced charge transfer at the Au/Spiro-OMeTAD interface facilitated the solar cell performance.
Effects of Potassium on Blood Pressure Control (1983)

Potassium depletion causes hypotension in normotensive animals and can lower the blood pressure in hypertensive animals and humans. Potential mechanisms for this hypotensive effect include a decrease in aldosterone levels, a decrease in vasopressin, and decreased responsiveness to the pressor effects of angiotensin II. The decreased response to angiotensin II could result from increased prostaglandin production, receptor occupancy, or a decrease in angiotensin II receptor affinity. A high potassium intake has no effect on blood pressure in normotensive animals and humans, but lowers blood pressure in those with hypertension. Mechanisms for this antihypertensive effect include natriuresis with sodium depletion, a decrease in plasma renin activity, an alteration in the neurogenic components of blood pressure regulation, and effects on resistance vessels related either to a high potassium concentration or to a decrease in the number of angiotensin II receptors.
THYMIC TRANSPLANTATION IN MINIATURE SWINE (1999)

The establishment of a thymokidney by thymic autografting to the renal subcapsular space results in normal thymic growth and function, and may provide a valuable tool for studying the role of the thymus in tolerance induction. As far as we are aware, we provide the first evidence of functional vascularized thymic graft reconstituting T cells and leading to a return of a immunocompetence in a large animal model.
On the Capacity of Cellular Networks with MIMO Links (2006)

We provide scaling results for the sum capacity of the multi-access, uplink channel in a flat fading environment, when there is interference from other cells. We consider a scaling regime where the number of antennas per user remains fixed but the number of antennas at the base station and the number of users in each cell grow large together. We characterize the asymptotic behaviour of the spectral efficiencies in each cell, in three scenarios: 1) single cell processing with full frequency reuse 2) single cell processing, with frequency re-use partitioning of adjacent cells and 3) base station cooperative decoding (macro-diversity). It is shown that base station cooperation provides very significant gains in spectral efficiency over single cell processing.
Integration of uniform design and Kriging interpolation to the optimization of suspension parameters of a high speed railway vehicle (2010)

This paper demonstrates the integration of uniform design and Kriging interpolation to the optimization of suspension parameters of a high speed railway vehicle. The critical hunting speed of the vehicle is the optimization function and is evaluated by Lyapunov's indirect method. The vehicle's nonlinear coupled differential equations of motion with twenty degrees of freedom are created based on Kalker's linear theory and the heuristic nonlinear creep model. This paper shows that the integration of uniform design and Kriging interpolation can effectively advance the robustness of critical hunting speed against the noise factor.
Extraction characteristics of ions in a magnetized sheet plasma (1996)

A sheet plasma of thickness several millimetres was produced by a combination of a pair of strong dipole magnets with opposing fields and a pair of Helmholtz coils producing a magnetic mirror field. A ferrite magnet and a coreless magnetic coil encased within the limiters add to the mirror field, enhancing quiescence in the plasma. The negative hydrogen ions produced in the peripheral region of the sheet plasma were extracted with a deflection mass spectrometer. Maximum negative ion current of about 0.9 A for an initial gas filling pressure of 3 mTorr was observed when the plasma electrode was negatively biased near the value of the plasma potential and when the mass spectrometer coil current generated a B field intensity equal to 691 G. The ratio of the negative ion density and the electron density near the extraction electrode was relatively high at 0.276. The measured electron temperature showed the existence of high-energy electrons in the sheet plasma. The extracted negative hydrogen current density of is higher than what has been obtained from similar sources. The bulk electron temperature and density at the centre of the sheet plasma were measured to be 11.06 eV and , respectively.
Profile control in isotropic plasma etching (2003)

The possibility of controlling the lateral-to-vertical etch ratio of undoped dielectric material is tested. The Lam Research Rainbow 4500i, configured with a downstream isotropic plasma etch chamber, was used for the study. The tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate (TEOS) isotropic etch profile was examined as a function of process parameters in order to establish trends of isotropic etch profile. A fractional-factorial matrix, with parameters of pressure, power, gas flow, and temperature, was performed. A series of tests varying pressure over a large range were run to confirm the results obtained from the matrix. It was observed that the chamber pressure has the most impact on the isotropic etch profile. The lowest lateral:vertical etch ratio was obtained when both the chamber pressure and wafer paddle temperature were lowered. The highest ratio occurred when wafer was etched at high chamber pressure. The lateral:vertical ratio of the isotropic etch profile could be reduced as much as 30% by baking the wafer at 110 degrees C for 30 minutes prior to isotropic etch. The study showed that it is possible to affect the TEOS isotropic etch profile when a downstream plasma etcher is used.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Endothelium—role in regulation of coagulation and inflammation (2011)

By its strategic position at the interface between blood and tissues, endothelial cells control blood fluidity and continued tissue perfusion while simultaneously they direct inflammatory cells to areas in need of defense or repair. The endothelial response depends on specific tissue needs and adapts to local stresses. Endothelial cells counteract coagulation by providing tissue factor and thrombin inhibitors and receptors for protein C activation. The receptor PAR-1 is differentially activated by thrombin and the activated protein C/EPCR complex, resulting in antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory effects. Thrombin and vasoactive agents release von Willebrand factor as ultra-large platelet-binding multimers, which are cleaved by ADAMTS13. Platelets can also facilitate leukocyte-endothelium interaction. Platelet activation is prevented by nitric oxide, prostacyclin, and exonucleotidases. Thrombin-cleaved ADAMTS18 induces disintegration of platelet aggregates while tissue-type plasminogen activator initiates fibrinolysis. Fibrin and products of platelets and inflammatory cells modulate the angiogenic response of endothelial cells and contribute to tissue repair.
AI-based world behaviour for emergent narratives (2006)

Research in Interactive Narrative has developed new approaches to the behaviour of virtual actors, but has dedicated little attention to the physical behaviour of the environment in which the action takes place. In this paper, we describe a method supporting the AI-based simulation of object behaviour, so that interactive narrative can feature the physical environment inhabited by the player character as an "actor". The prototype we describe has been developed on top of the Unreal Tournament game engine and relies on a "causal engine", which essentially bypasses the native Physics engine to generate alternative consequences to player interventions. It operates using a small depth-bound planning system which determines the most appropriate object behaviours following player interaction. The prototype is illustrated through a test application called "Death Kitchen", freely inspired from various thriller and horror films, in which the kitchen is plotting against the player character to generate domestic accidents.
Sorption Characteristics of Activated Carbon Fabric (1973)

A commercial carbon fabric intended for aerospace applications was characterized as an activated carbon, since it had sufficient surface area and pore volume to warrant such consideration. Evaluation was achieved by means of nitrogen sorption (BET method), mercury porosimetry, sorption of CCl 4 vapor, density in water and helium, and sorption of Meth ylene Blue from aqueous solution. The carbon textile appeared to be most suitable for gas and vapor sorption, but a signifi cant capacity for liquid phase sorption was also demonstrated.
Philadelphia-chromosome-positive pre-B-cell leukemia presenting as blast crisis of chronic myelogenous leukemia (1979)

Cytogenetic studies of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) have shown that the majority of hemopoietic cells originate from pluripotential stem cells affected in this disease. Evidence that lymphocytes are also progeny of these stem cells, however, has been indirect. Philadelphia-chromosome-positive leukemic blasts from a 4 10/12-yr-old boy with CML in blast crisis had features characteristic of pre-B leukemic cells, including expression of cytoplasmic IgM and absence of surface immunoglobulin. Additional immunologic, enzymatic, and pharmacologic characterization of these cells supported their pre-B-cell phenotype. Together, these features provide direct evidence for CML stem cell ancestry to lymphocytes of the B-cell lineage.

Integrated Camera and Radar Tracking using Multi-Model Cubature Kalman Filter (2019)

In this paper, a multiple camera and radar based tracking method is proposed using an interactive multi-model (IMM) based cubature Kalman filter (CKF). In real world scenarios, object movement cannot be characterized with a single motion model. Furthermore, measurements from a single camera/radar may not contain relevant information to achieve desired tracking accuracy for critical applications. The approach proposed in this paper utilizes multiple motion models and the measurements from multiple camera and radar sensors to perform tracking. The proposed method operates a CKF with information weighted sensor fusion for each motion model. Furthermore, the likelihood of each motion model at a given time is calculated using the measurement residuals from all the camera and radar sensors. In the considered simulation set up, the proposed method achieves better tracking accuracy than an IMM based on the extended Kalman filter method and better switching capability among different motion models compared to the single sensor scenario.
Era of Big Data Processing: A New Approach via Tensor Networks and Tensor Decompositions (2014)

Many problems in computational neuroscience, neuroinformatics, pattern/image recognition, signal processing and machine learning generate massive amounts of multidimensional data with multiple aspects and high dimensionality. Tensors (i.e., multi-way arrays) provide often a natural and compact representation for such massive multidimensional data via suitable low-rank approximations. Big data analytics require novel technologies to efficiently process huge datasets within tolerable elapsed times. Such a new emerging technology for multidimensional big data is a multiway analysis via tensor networks (TNs) and tensor decompositions (TDs) which represent tensors by sets of factor (component) matrices and lower-order (core) tensors. Dynamic tensor analysis allows us to discover meaningful hidden structures of complex data and to perform generalizations by capturing multi-linear and multi-aspect relationships. We will discuss some fundamental TN models, their mathematical and graphical descriptions and associated learning algorithms for large-scale TDs and TNs, with many potential applications including: Anomaly detection, feature extraction, classification, cluster analysis, data fusion and integration, pattern recognition, predictive modeling, regression, time series analysis and multiway component analysis. Keywords: Large-scale HOSVD, Tensor decompositions, CPD, Tucker models, Hierarchical Tucker (HT) decomposition, low-rank tensor approximations (LRA), Tensorization/Quantization, tensor train (TT/QTT) - Matrix Product States (MPS), Matrix Product Operator (MPO), DMRG, Strong Kronecker Product (SKP).
Study of the PTC effect in conducting epoxy polymer composites (1998)

The thermo-mechanical and electrical properties of conductive epoxy composites are studied and the large decrease of the conductivity as a function of the temperature is analysed in terms of Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) effect. Three classes of fillers are used for the materials preparation consisting of polypyrrole (Ppy), carbon black and metallic fillers. The PTC mechanism was found to be dependent on the conducting filler, and a new approach was proposed leading to a better understanding of this phenomenon in amorphous filled polymers. The electrical non-linear properties of organic conducting composites as epoxy/Ppy have received a particular attention.
