MAN IN MOTION (1991)

This is a review of selected aspects of the history of the vestibular system (J. E. Purkyne, E. Mach, A. Crum-Brown) and of our current understanding of vestibular malfunction in clinical vertigo syndromes. Evidence is presented for a preliminary classification of central vestibular brainstem syndromes according to the three major planes of action of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR): (1) disorders of the VOR in the horizontal (yaw) plane (horizontal nystagmus, pseudo 'vestibular neuritis'); (2) disorders of the VOR in the sagittal (pitch) plane (downbeat nystagmus; upbeat nystagmus); (3) disorders of the VOR in the frontal (roll) plane (ocular tilt reaction; lateropulsion). The pathophysiology of peripheral vestibular disorders is discussed: a specific gravity differential between the cupula fluid and the endolymph (buoyancy mechanism) causes vertigo in benign paroxysmal positioning vertigo and positional alcohol nystagmus. Vestibular neuritis is probably a partial unilateral vestibular paralysis due to viral infection of the superior division of the nerve trunk. The common post-traumatic vertigo is explained by otolith dysfunction secondary to dislodged otoconia resulting in unequal loads on the macula beds and a tonus imbalance between the two otoliths.
A scripting language for multimedia presentations (1994)

We present a scripting language for constructing multimedia presentations. The language uses a synchronization model synthesized from the time line, hierarchic and reference point models, and data abstractions used to represent the multimedia objects based upon a hierarchy of classes. Starting with a description and a comparison of synchronization models, we present a hierarchy of multimedia objects, a scripting language and a short example of its use.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Exploring the Use of Anonymized Consumer Credit Information to Estimate Economic Conditions: An Application of Big Data (2015)

The emergence of high-frequency administrative data and other big data offers an opportunity for improvements to economic forecasting models. This paper considers the potential advantages and limitations of using information contained in anonymized consumer credit reports for improving estimates of current and future economic conditions for various geographic areas and demographic markets. Aggregate consumer credit information is found to be correlated with macroeconomic variables such as gross domestic product, retail sales, and employment and can serve as leading indicators such that lagged values of consumer credit variables can improve the accuracy of forecasts of these macro variables.
Pre- and postnatal ontogeny of aromatase cytochrome P450 messenger ribonucleic acid expression in the male rat brain studied by in situ hybridization. (1994)

A central step in the development and sexual differentiation of the brain is the intraneuronal conversion of testosterone to estrogen. This conversion is catalyzed by an enzyme complex comprised of cytochrome P450 aromatase and the ubiquitous NADPH-dependent cytochrome P450 reductase. Brain aromatase activity is developmentally regulated and expressed only in specific hypothalamic and limbic structures. To determine whether developmental change in aromatase activity are the result of differential regulation of aromatase gene expression, we designed two specific oligonucleotides complementary to a 5'-region or to the heme-binding region of the rat aromatase complementary DNA. Relative amounts of messenger RNA (mRNA) encoding aromatase cytochrome P450 were examined on cryostat sections from male fetuses and offspring of time-pregnant Long-Evans rats using the in situ hybridization technique. On gestational day (GD) 16 (GD 1 = 24 h after mating), aromatase-specific mRNA was detected in the preoptic/hypothalamic area. On GD18 and GD20, aromatase mRNA expression was more abundant and more widespread. High levels of mRNA were detected in the medical preoptic nucleus, the sexually dimorphic nucleus of the preoptic area, the bed nucleus of stria terminalis, and the medial amygdala. Lower levels were found in the periventricular preoptic nucleus and the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus. On postnatal day (PN) 2 and throughout further development (PN6, PN15, and adult), aromatase mRNA decreased to much lower levels in the preoptic area, but remained high in the bed nucleus of stria terminalis and amygdala. An intermediate situation, i.e. transient expression with a peak around birth, was observed for aromatase mRNA levels in the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus. Interestingly, during early postnatal development, specific aromatase mRNA was also detected in the hippocampal formation as well as in the subfornical organ. In summary, these results demonstrate that the low quantities of aromatase transcripts in the developing rat brain can be detected by means of in situ hybridization. Depending on the particular region examined, aromatase expression appears to be subjected to different developmental programs. As the expression of aromatase mRNA parallels the results obtained from activity assays, it is likely that developmental changes in aromatase activity are the result of regulation of aromatase gene expression.
Doppler shift estimation for intelligent beamweight computation (2018)

Estimation of the Doppler frequency plays an important role by providing information on how to use the channel resources effectively.This thesis work analyses the various alternatives for Doppler estimation in the up link of an LTE beamforming system on a MATLAB simulation environment.Various methods are compared in terms of complexity, performance under noise, estimation range, and accuracy.Specifically, the pilot based and cyclic prefix methods are investigated and comparisons are made in three propagation channel models namely the extended pedestrian A model, the extended vehicular A model, and extended Typical Urban model.It is shown that except for the estimation range, the pilot method shows superior performance over the cyclic prefix method.Furthermore, the result of the estimation is used in optimizing the performances of the LTE system and high performance gain is observed in the extended pedestrian channel.
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (2022)

Chapter 12 studies the property of magnetic response functions of electrons probed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments. The Knight shift is shown to be proportional to the real part of the local magnetic susceptibility. The spin-lattice relaxation, on the other hand, provides an effective measure of the imaginary part of the susceptibility averaged by the interaction form factor over the whole Brillouin zone. The effect of impurity scattering, particularly the impurity induced resonance states, on the NMR spectra is discussed and compared with experimental results.

Scalable Variational Bayesian Matrix Factorization with Side Information (2014)

Bayesian matrix factorization (BMF) is a popular method for collaborative prediction, because of its robustness to overfitting as well as of being free from cross-validation for fine tuning of regularization parameters. In practice, however, due to its cubic time complexity with respect to the rank of factor matrices, existing variational inference algorithms for BMF are not well suited to web-scale datasets where billions of ratings provided by millions of users are available. The time complexity even increases when the side information, such as user binary implicit feedback or item content information, is incorporated into variational Bayesian matrix factorization (VBMF). For instance, a state of the arts in VBMF with side information, is to place Gaussian priors on user and item factor matrices, where mean of each prior is regressed on the corresponding side information. Since this approach introduces additional cubic time complexity with respect to the size of feature vectors, the use of rich side information in a form of highdimensional feature vector is prohibited. In this paper, we present a scalable inference for VBMF with side information, the complexity of which is linear in the rank K of factor matrices. Moreover, the algorithm can be easily parallelized on multi-core systems. Experiments on large-scale datasets demonstrate the useful behavior of our algorithm such as scalability, fast learning, and prediction accuracy.

New poly(ether benzoxazole)s containing xanthene cardo groups (2015)

A series of poly(ether benzoxazole)s (PEBOs) containing xanthene cardo groups were prepared via direct one-step condensation polymerization in poly(phosphoric acid/phosphorus pentoxide solution from 9,9-bis[4-(4-carboxyphenoxy)phenyl]xanthene and various bis( o-aminophenol)s. The resulting PEBOs with inherent viscosities of 0.87–1.08 dL g −1 were amorphous and exhibited glass transition temperatures in the range of 245–320°C. These new PEBOs exhibited improved solubility and could be processable from solution. Additionally, the obtained PEBOs showed excellent thermal stability, and did not show a significant weight loss up to 500°C in air or nitrogen, and the temperatures at 10% weight loss were in the range of 533–590°C in nitrogen and 508–570°C in air, with char yields more than 50% at 800°C in nitrogen. All the PEBOs formed strong and flexible films with tensile strengths of 53–80 MPa, tensile moduli of 2.3–2.6 GPa, and elongations at break of 3.2–3.7%.
Exercise-induced GH secretion is enhanced by the oral ingestion of melatonin in healthy adult male subjects (1999)

There is evidence that melatonin may play a role in modulating pituitary secretion, although the mechanisms are unclear. We examined the effects of a single dose of oral melatonin (5mg) on exercise-induced GH secretion. In a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, seven healthy male subjects undertook an initial period of graded bicycle ergometric exercise to determine maximum workload and oxygen uptake (VO(2max)). Subjects were subsequently studied on two further occasions, receiving either melatonin or placebo in random order at the onset of each study (-60min). At 0 min a period of bicycle exercise was performed for 8 min at a workload corresponding to 70% of that achieved at VO(2max). Serum GH and IGF-binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) concentration was measured at 15-min intervals from the onset of the study until 120 min post-exercise. Blood was also sampled for the measurement of plasma glucose, insulin, non-esterified fatty acids, IGFBP-3, melatonin and vasopressin concentration. There was an exercise-induced increase in GH concentration following melatonin which was greater compared with placebo as assessed by both area under the curve (P<0.01) and peak increase in GH levels (P<0.01). The peak increase in IGFBP-1 levels post-exercise was also significantly greater following melatonin compared with placebo (P<0. 01) but did not quite reach levels of significance as measured by area under the curve (P=0.07). Since exercise-induced GH secretion is thought to be mediated predominantly through a hypothalamic pathway, it seems likely that melatonin facilitates GH secretion at a hypothalamic level.
Emotion processing in three systems: The medium and the message (1999)

In the context of picture viewing, consistent and specific relationships have been found between two emotion dimensions (valence and arousal) and self-report, physiological and overt behavioral responses. Relationships between stimulus content and the emotion-response profile can also be modulated by the formal properties of stimulus presentation such as screen size. The present experiment explored the impact of another presentation attribute, stimulus motion, on the perceived quality of the induced emotion and on its associated physiological response pattern. Using a within-subject design, moving and still versions of emotion-eliciting stimuli were shown to 35 subjects while facial muscle, heart rate, skin conductance, and emotion self-reports were monitored. The impact of motion was dramatic. Self-report and physiological data suggested strongly that motion increased arousal, had little impact on valence, and captured and sustained the subject's attention to the image.
How to Achieve a Rapid Deployment of Mobile Substations and to Guarantee Its Integrity During Transport (2008)

A mobile substation is a fully equipped electrical substation mounted on a semitrailer. The substation components are ideally mounted in their operational position on the semitrailer. The equipment must be fixed considering the space limitation, insulation distances and not only static but dynamic loads due to transport. The equipment must be fitted in a way to allow a fast installation requiring minimum work. This paper describes the application of mobile substations, it discusses their specific technical considerations at the design stage, and it presents experimental and analytical results of the vibration of the equipment during transport motion.
High efficiency battery management system for serially connected battery string (2009)

This article presents an approach for balancing serially connected battery strings with high efficiency energy transferred. The efficiency of this balancing process is accomplished by channeling an excess energy through a DC Link Bus rather than done serially. Using this proposed technique with converter which was 80 percent efficiency, the equalized efficiency of balancing process is increased more than the conventional techniques at least 12.80 percent. By applied this proposed technique to the charge equalized system, the unbalance charging problem can be eliminated. The validity of this approach can be supported by computer simulation and experimental result.
Biodegradation of Chemicals of Environmental Concern (1981)

Microorganisms in soils and waters convert many synthetic organic chemicals to inorganic products. Other compounds are transformed only by cometabolism. These microbial processes may lead to environmental detoxication, the formation of new toxicants, or the biosynthesis of persistent products. Type reactions are proposed for major categories of enzymatic transformation of synthetic chemicals in soils, natural waters, and sewage. Some organic molecules are resistant to microbial attack, and explanations for the persistence of such compounds are suggested.
3D image analysis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (2002)

This paper presents a method for 3-D segmentation of abdominal aortic aneurysm from computed tomography angiography images. The proposed method is automatic and requires minimal user assistance. Segmentation is performed in two steps. First inner and then outer aortic border is segmented. Those two steps are different due to different image conditions on two aortic borders. Outputs of these two segmentations give a complete 3-D model of abdominal aorta. Such a 3-D model is used in measurements of aneurysm area. The deformable model is implemented using the level-set algorithm due to its ability to describe complex shapes in natural manner which frequently occur in pathology. In segmentation of outer aortic boundary we introduced some knowledge based preprocessing to enhance and reconstruct low contrast aortic boundary. The method has been implemented in IDL and C languages. Experiments have been performed using real patient CTA images and have shown good results.

Effect of octreotide (SMS 201-995) on meal-stimulated pancreatic secretion in three patients with external pancreatic fistula. (1991)

Octreotide (SMS 201-995) is a long-acting somatostatin analogue that inhibits both basal and secretin-cholecystokinin-stimulated pancreatic secretion. This study assesses the effect of this compound on pancreatic secretion induced by ordinary meals. Three patients with stable secretion of pure pancreatic juice from high output pancreatic fistula were studied. In all three, meal ingestion caused a marked and prolonged increase in pancreatic juice flow, and in bicarbonate and protein output. The subcutaneous injection of 50 micrograms octreotide before meals almost totally prevented (by about 90%) this increase. The inhibitory effect of octreotide on postprandial pancreatic secretion appeared soon, and persisted for the duration of the study period (8 h).
100 gigabit Ethernet and beyond [Commentary (2010)

At the November 2009 IEEE 802 Plenary meeting, the IEEE P802.3ba 40 Gb/s and 100 Gb/s Ethernet project reached the next milestone on its journey to being ratified as a standard, as the draft amendment to the IEEE 802.3 standard was approved to move to the second and final stage of balloting, known as Sponsor Ballot. The success of meeting this milestone keeps the project on schedule for ratification in June 2010. The ratification of the P802.3ba standard will be a major accomplishment for the Task Force, the end result of hard work and diligent efforts, and a major milestone in the long running history of Ethernet as a protocol.
Periventricular Leukomalacia: Overview and Recent Findings (2006)

Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), the main substrate for cerebral palsy, is characterized by diffuse injury of deep cerebral white matter, accompanied in its most severe form by focal necrosis. The classic neuropathology of PVL has given rise to several hypotheses about the pathogenesis, largely relating to hypoxia-ischemia and reperfusion in the sick premature infant. These include free radical injury, cytokine toxicity (especially given the epidemiologic association of PVL with maternofetal infection), and excitotoxicity. Among the recent findings directly in human postmortem tissue is that immunocytochemical markers of lipid peroxidation (hydroxy-nonenal and malondialdehyde) and protein nitration (nitrotyrosine) are significantly increased in PVL. Premyelinating oligodendrocytes, which predominate in periventricular regions during the window of vulnerability to PVL (24 to 34 postconceptional weeks), are the targets of this free radical injury, and suffer cell death. Susceptibility can be attributed, at least in part, to a relative deficiency of superoxide dismutases in the preterm white matter, including premyelinating oligodendrocytes. Several cytokines, including interferon-gamma (known to be directly toxic to immature oligodendroglia in vitro), as well as tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukins 2 and 6, have been demonstrated in PVL. Microglia, which express toll-like receptors to bacterial products such as lipopolysaccharide, are increased in PVL white matter and may contribute to the injury. Preliminary work suggests a role for glutamate receptors and glutamate transporters in PVL, as has been seen in experimental animals. These findings pave the way for eventual therapeutic or preventive strategies for PVL.
Influence of athlete heart rate, rate of perceived exertion, and anxiety in rowing practice and competition (2014)

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is a significant correlation between heart rate (HR) and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) in rowing, how athlete perception of pre-race anxiety relates to HR and RPE, and how these variables change between practice and competition. Four subjects were tested over the course of their rowing season for somatic and cognitive anxiety, self-confidence, HR, and RPE in three different 2000 meter racing conditions: indoor ergometer, on-water racing, and on-water practice. There was no correlation between HR and RPE, and only maximum HR showed a difference between trial types. Studying more subjects and ensuring the same number of each type of trial would enhance the results of this study. INFLUENCE OF HR, RPE, AND ANXIETY IN ROWING iii
Isolation and characterization of Bacillus subtilis mutants blocked in the synthesis of pantothenic acid (1991)

We have produced and characterized by physiological and enzymatic analyses pantothenate (pan) auxotrophs of Bacillus subtilis. panB auxotrophs are deficient in ketopantoate hydroxymethyltransferase, whereas panE mutants lack ketopantoic acid reductase. The pan mutations were mapped by phage PBS1-mediated two-factor crosses and found to be located in the interval purE-tre of the genetic map of B. subtilis.
