An Accurate Heading Solution using MEMS-based Gyroscope and Magnetometer Integrated System (Preliminary Results) (2014)

Abstract. An accurate heading solution is required for many applications and it can be achieved by high grade (high cost) gyroscopes (gyros) which may not be suitable for such applications. Micro-Electro Mechanical Systems-based (MEMS) is an emerging technology, which has the potential of providing heading solution using a low cost MEMS-based gyro. However, MEMS-gyro-based heading solution drifts significantly over time. The heading solution can also be estimated using MEMS-based magnetometer by measuring the horizontal components of the Earth magnetic field. The MEMS-magnetometer-based heading solution does not drift over time, but are contaminated by high level of noise and may be disturbed by the presence of magnetic field sources such as metal objects. This paper proposed an accurate heading estimation procedure based on the integration of MEMS-based gyro and magnetometer measurements that correct gyro and magnetometer measurements where gyro angular rates of changes are estimated using magnetometer measurements and then integrated with the measured gyro angular rates of changes with a robust filter to estimate the heading. The proposed integration solution is implemented using two data sets; one was conducted in static mode without magnetic disturbances and the second was conducted in kinematic mode with magnetic disturbances. The results showed that the proposed integrated heading solution provides accurate, smoothed and undisturbed solution when compared with magnetometerbased and gyro-based heading solutions.

The effect of chrysotherapy on trace metals in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (1971)

Abstract Blood serum specimens from patients with rheumatoid arthritis who had never received chrysotherapy, patients with rheumatoid arthritis who had been receiving chrysotherapy for a period of 18 months or more and normal volunteers were analyzed by emission spectroscopy for eight trace elements. Compared with the normal volunteers, the mean concentrations of copper, molybdenum, manganese, tin, barium and cesium were elevated in blood serum from patients with rheumatoid arthritis who had never received chrysotherapy. Chrysotherapy resulted in a decrease in molybdenum, manganese, tin, barium and cesium. The mean concentrations (compared with the normal) of zinc and iron were lower in blood serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis who had never received gold therapy. Chrysotherapy had no apparent effect on iron or zinc.

Transition-metal and metalloid substitutions in L10-ordered FeNi (2014)

The effect of atomic substitutions on the magnetization, exchange, and magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy of L10-ordered FeNi (tetrataenite) is computationally investigated. The compound naturally occurs in meteorites but has attracted renewed attention as a potential material for permanent magnets, and elemental additives will likely be necessary to facilitate the phase formation. Our density functional theory calculations use the Vienna ab-initio simulation package, applied to 4-atom unit cells of Fe2XNi and 32-atom supercells (X = Al, P, S, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co). While it is found that most additives deteriorate the magnetic properties, there are exceptions: excess substitutional Fe and Co additions improve the magnetization, whereas Cr, S, and interstitial B additions improve the magnetocrystalline anisotropy.
Construction Learning as a Function of Frequency, Frequency Distribution, and Function (2009)

This article considers effects of construction frequency, form, function, and prototypicality on second language acquisition (SLA). It investigates these relationships by focusing on naturalistic SLA in the European Science Foundation corpus ( Perdue, 1993 ) of the English verb–argument constructions (VACs): verb locative (VL), verb object locative (VOL), and ditransitive (VOO). Goldberg (2006) argued that Zipfian type/token frequency distributions ( Zipf, 1935 ) in natural language constructions might optimize learning by providing one very high‐frequency exemplar that is also prototypical in meaning. This article tests and confirms this proposal for naturalistic English as a second language. We show that VAC type/token distribution in the input is Zipfian and that learners first use the most frequent, prototypical, and generic exemplar (e.g., put in the VOL VAC, give in the VOO ditransitive, etc.). Learning is driven by the frequency and frequency distribution of exemplars within constructions and by the match of their meaning to the construction prototype.

Evaluation of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function with Cardiac MR Imaging (2011)

Assessment of left ventricular (LV) function with cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is often limited to evaluation of systolic function, including analysis of regional wall motion, measurement of mass and volume, and estimation of ejection fraction. However, diastolic dysfunction is present in various heart diseases, particularly in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, which is increasingly prevalent and is associated with a poor prognosis. In daily practice, the assessment of diastolic function is mainly performed with transthoracic echocardiography. Evaluation of diastolic function with cardiac MR imaging is seldom performed in clinical practice. However, basic assessment of LV relaxation and stiffness abnormalities can be achieved with MR imaging by using a combination of left atrium size measurement and phase-contrast evaluation of transmitral flow. In addition, assessment of pulmonary venous flow and the LV filling curve can also be performed. Furthermore, MR imaging with late gadolinium enhancement sequences provides insight into the extent of myocardial fibrosis, which strongly influences LV stiffness. Finally, phase-contrast evaluation of tissue velocities, myocardial tagging, MR spectroscopy, and MR elastography are promising tools for a better understanding of LV diastolic function but require further evaluation.
Analysis of a Nonlinear Web-Tension Control System of a High- Speed Gravure Printing Machine (2006)

Large printing demand of our modern society requests development of high-speed printing machines. A reasonable model for Web tension plays an important role for the development of a high-speed printing machine. In this paper, we derive a nonlinear Web-tension model of a high-speed gravure printing machine considering span length to be time-varying instead of considering it to be fixed. Time-varying property of the Web span length is due to turret motions of unwinding and rewinding units as well as dancer motions. Furthermore, we analyze Web-tension control performance at transient and steady-state operations. The validity of the Web-tension model and control system has been shown via simulation study
<title>Soldier systems sensor fusion</title> (1998)

This paper addresses sensor fusion and its applications in emerging Soldier Systems integration and the unique challenges associated with the human platform. Technology that,provides the highest operational payoff in a lightweight warrior system must not only have enhanced capabilities, but have low power components resulting in order of magnitude reductions coupled with significant cost reductions. These reductions in power and cost will be achieved through partnership with industry and leveraging of commercial state of the art advancements in microelectronics and power sources. As new generation of full solution fire control systems (to include temperature, wind and range sensors) and target acquisition systems will accompany a new generation of individual combat weapons and upgrade existing weapon systems. Advanced lightweight thermal, IR, laser and video senors will be used for surveillance, target acquisition, imaging and combat identification applications. Multifunctional sensors will provide embedded training features in combat configurations allowing the soldier to 'train as he fights' without the traditional cost and weight penalties associated with separate systems. Personal status monitors (detecting pulse, respiration rate, muscle fatigue, core temperature, etc.) will provide commanders and highest echelons instantaneous medical data. Seamless integration of GPS and dead reckoning (compass and pedometer) and/or inertial sensors will aid navigation and increase position accuracy. Improved sensors and processing capability will provide earlier detection of battlefield hazards such as mines, enemy lasers and NBC (nuclear, biological, chemical) agents. Via the digitized network the situational awareness database will automatically be updated with weapon, medical, position and battlefield hazard data. Soldier Systems Sensor Fusion will ultimately establish each individual soldier as an individual sensor on the battlefield.

Case Report: The use of gastric ultrasound to assess risk of pulmonary aspiration (2016)

Pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents is a dreaded complication of general anesthesia, as it carries significant patient morbidity and mortality. Subsequent aspiration pneumonia can lead to prolonged mechanical ventilation, and a mortality rate of up to 5%. To minimize the risk of pulmonary aspiration, patients are required – as per the American Society of Anesthesiology’s “Practice Guidelines for Preoperative Fasting” – to fast prior to elective surgery in order to ensure that the stomach is empty prior to induction of general anesthesia.
Quasiconvex Sets (1950)

Introduction. Let I be the closed real number interval: Any subset Δ of I containing at least one number interior to I, will be called a quasiconvexity generating set. To each quasiconvexity generating set Δ we associate as follows a generalized notion of convexity, here called quasiconvexity or Δ convexity. Two numbers α and β, one of which belongs to Δ, the other being determined by the relation a α + β = 1, are called complementary ratios of Δ. A set Q in a real vector space is said to be A convex if for every pair of complementary ratios α and β in Δ and every pair of points a and b lying in Q the point αa +β b also lies in Q.
Document management through hypertext: a logic modeling approach (1994)

This work employs logic modeling as a common language to integrate two independent information domains/spl minus/document management and hypertext. The concept of hypertext concerns information management and access. Hypertext can also be considered a knowledge representation that models the structure of the information system it serves. A hypertext engine would give the user flexible access to the information and commands of the underlying application, tailored to that application's structure. This paper focuses on integrating hypertext functionalities into an intelligent personal document processing system called TEXPROS. We develop independent logic data models for hypertext and TEXPROS elements, and then present the logical representation of the bridge laws that map between them. We found logic modeling an invaluable tool in understanding our two domains and effecting their integration.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
A list layered space-time approach for MIMO detection (2005)

This paper describes a layered space-time (LST) approach for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels where list decisions of each data substream are used to subtract interference when detecting the next data substream. We study this approach in the context of the IEEE 802.11 standard using orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and bit-interleaved coded modulation of each subcarrier. We show that ideal list LST with increased list size can potentially approach the MIMO Shannon bound, but performance of real implementation based on a reduced-complexity demapper is limited by competing Euclidean distances common in any reduced-state maximum likelihood detection.
Glyceraldehyde Phosphate Dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli (1971)

Abstract The molecular weight of the Escherichia coli glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase subunit in 5 m guanidine hydrochloride containing 0.01 m dithiothreitol was determined by high speed sedimentation equilibrium to be 35,000. Amino acid composition of the protein, taken in conjunction with the number of peptides obtained after tryptic digestion, indicated that the subunits of the enzyme were very probably identical, each containing 12 arginine and 26 lysine residues. NAD+ content of the protein, measured both by spectrophotometric and enzymatic methods, was found to be very low (l0.1 mole of NAD+ per 35,000 g of protein), although capacity to strongly bind NAD+ was intact. The enzyme could be crystallized but only after addition of NAD+ to apoprotein. One cysteine residue per subunit was carboxymethylated with resultant enzymatic inactivation when native enzyme was reacted with iodoacetic acid; similarly there was one sulfhydryl group per subunit which was rapidly reactive with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid). Under protein denaturing conditions a total of 3 cysteine residues per subunit were detected although analyses of performic acid-oxidized protein indicated four cysteic acids per subunit. Dehydrogenase activity of the enzyme was markedly sulfhydryl dependent; there was l25% of maximal activity if sulfhydryl compounds were not included in assay mixtures. Esterase activity (with p-nitrophenyl acetate as substrate) was inhibited by AMP, ADP, and ATP but not by NAD+.
Molecular physiology of platelet ADP receptors (1998)

Extracellular nucleotides have been implicated in a number of physiologic functions. Nucleotides act on cell surface receptors known as P2 receptors of which several subtypes have been cloned. Both ATP and ADP are stored in platelets and are released upon platelet activation. During vascular injury, nucleotides play an important role in hemostasis by activating platelets. Classic pharmacologic studies have identified ADP receptors on platelets, designated P2T receptor. The P2T receptor is now resolved into three P2 receptor subtypes, the P2Y1, the P2X1, and the P2TACreceptor, which remains to be cloned. Although the P2Y1 receptor solely mediates ADP-induced platelet shape change, both the P2Y1 and P2TAC receptors are essential for ADP-induced fibrinogen receptor activation on platelets. The function of the P2X1 receptor remains to be elucidated. Thus the complexities in the functional characterization of platelet ADP receptors now appear to be resolved. Drug Dev.

Oligoradionuclidetherapy using radiolabelled antisense oligodeoxynucleotide phosphorothioates. (1996)

Radiolabelled antisense oligodeoxynucleotides have been used for in vivo biokinetic studies in AIDS and cancer patients. The therapeutic possibilities are still unknown and the major question in therapeutic use of radio-oligonucleotide is the optimal source of radiation. We studied the pharmacokinetics and in vivo tissue distribution for oligodeoxynucleotide phosphorothioates by using the data from three different radionuclides: sulphur-35 (t1/2 = 87.4 days, maximum beta-energy = 167 keV), phosphorus-33 (t1/2 = 24.4 days, maximum beta-energy = 250 keV) and phosphorus-32 (t1/2 = 14.3 days, maximum beta-energy = 2270 keV). The absorbed doses of 32P-, 33P- and 35S-labelled oligonucleotides were estimated using the published biodistribution data for several oligonucleotides in two animal models for both tumour xenografts and AIDS. The local energy absorption of 33P turned out to be higher than that of 32P if the mass was smaller than approximately 300 micrograms, and the local absorption of 35S was higher than that of 32P when the mass was <80 micrograms. In a mouse tumour xenograft model an i.v. injected activity seemed to achieve sufficient radiation doses in the tumour: in a 1 g tumour 4.9 Gy for 32P, 5.1 Gy for 33P and 5.5 Gy for 35S were calculated when the kidney dose was kept as 5 Gy. In the same model in smaller tumours the doses were for a 1 mg tumour 0.73 Gy (32P), 5.1 Gy (33P) and 5.5 Gy (35S), and for a 1 microgram tumour 0.08 Gy (32P), 3.1 Gy (33P) and 3.9 Gy (35S). Thus, 33P and 35S have more beneficial radiotherapeutic characteristics than 32P. Relative advantage factors (33P and 35S versus 32P) for kidney and liver doses using these nuclides varied from 0.997 to 1.001 for a 1 g tumour and there was no difference in the radiation dose to normal organs. Therefore, we conclude that in oligonucleotide radiotherapy tumours >1 g should be treated with 32P, whereas smaller tumours should be treated with 33P or 35S. There is no significant difference between 33P and 35S, and either radionuclide could be selected according to labelling properties.
The Mechanisms of Movement Control and Time Estimation in Cervical Dystonia Patients (2013)

Traditionally, the pathophysiology of cervical dystonia has been regarded mainly in relation to neurochemical abnormities in the basal ganglia. Recently, however, substantial evidence has emerged for cerebellar involvement. While the absence of neurological "cerebellar signs" in most dystonia patients may be considered at least provoking, there are more subtle indications of cerebellar dysfunction in complex, demanding tasks. Specifically, given the role of the cerebellum in the neural representation of time, in the millisecond range, dysfunction to this structure is considered to be of greater importance than dysfunction of the basal ganglia. In the current study, we investigated the performance of cervical dystonia patients on a computer task known to engage the cerebellum, namely, the interception of a moving target with changing parameters (speed, acceleration, and angle) with a simple response (pushing a button). The cervical dystonia patients achieved significantly worse results than a sample of healthy controls. Our results suggest that the cervical dystonia patients are impaired at integrating incoming visual information with motor responses during the prediction of upcoming actions, an impairment we interpret as evidence of cerebellar dysfunction.
A novel method for real-time multiple moving targets detection from moving IR camera (2008)

This paper presents a novel method for detecting multiple moving targets in real-time from infrared (IR) image sequences collected by an airborne IR camera. This novel method is based on dynamic Gabor filter and dynamic Gaussian detector. First, the ego-motion induced by the airborne platform is modeled by parametric affine transformation based on feature point matching, and the IR video is stabilized by eliminating the background motion. Then, a dynamic Gabor filter is employed to enhance the image changes for accurate detection and localization of moving targets. The orientation of Gabor filter is dynamically changed according to the orientation of optical flows. Next, the specular highlights generated by the dynamic Gabor filter are detected. The outliers and specular highlights are fused to identify the moving targets. The experimental results show that the proposed detection algorithm is effective and efficient. And the detection speed is approximate 2 frames per second.
Non-negative scaling functions and applications in image coding (2002)

At medium and low bit rates, traditional subband image coding algorithms suffer from basis related visual artifacts. Short basis causes blocking and long basis causes ringing. In particular, ringing is caused by the undershoot and overshoot of time domain response of the basis functions. They can be effectively suppressed by using a scaling function that monotonically decreases to zero at block edges. In this paper, the theory, structure and design of filter banks with nonnegative scaling function are analyzed and their application in image coding is investigated. Experiments show that both blocking and ringing noises can be effectively suppressed by using the proposed filter banks. Moreover, they can be parametrized by lattice structures.
