DrivingStyles: A smartphone application to assess driver behavior (2013)

The DrivingStyles architecture integrates both data mining techniques and neural networks to generate a classification of driving styles by analyzing the driver behavior along each route. In particular, based on parameters such as speed, acceleration, and revolutions per minute of the engine (rpm), we have implemented a neural network based algorithm that is able to characterize the type of road on which the vehicle is moving, as well as the degree of aggressiveness of each driver. The final goal is to assist drivers at correcting the bad habits in their driving behavior, while offering helpful tips to improve fuel economy. In this work we take advantage of two key-points: the evolution of mobile terminals and the availability of a standard interface to access car data. Our DrivingStyles platform to achieve a symbiosis between smartphones and vehicles able to make the former operate as an onboard unit. Results show that neural networks were able to achieve a high degree of exactitude at classifying both road and driver types based on user traces. DrivingStyles is currently available on the Google Play Store platform for free download, and has achieved more than 1550 downloads from different countries in just a few months.
PIEZOELECTRIC TRANSFORMER BASED CONTINUOUS- CONDUCTION-MODE VOLTAGE SOURCE CHARGE-PUMP POWER FACTOR CORRECTION ELECTRONIC BALLAST * (2006)

This paper presents the piezoelectric transformer (PT) based continuous-conduction-mode (CCM) voltage source (VS) charge-pump (CP) power factor correction (PFC) electronic ballast. By replacing L-C resonant tank and transformer in the conventional CCM VS CP-PFC electronic ballast with PT, the cost and volume can be reduced. The experimental results show that the electronic ballast using PT achieve high power factor and the switches can be operated under zero-voltageswitching condition.
Inflight Optical Measurement of Antenna Surfaces (1978)

A technology base was developed for a wide variety of applications oriented sensors to meet requirements for the fabrication, assembly, test, surface figure monitoring, and ultimately surface figure active control of large space antennas. An optical sensor technique is described which establishes an ideal centerline at each beam during fabrication or later during assembly. Deviations from the centerline, either in lateral deformation or in twist, are measured to produce limit warnings or to evoke active control at the building machine.
Monogenic forms of childhood obesity due to mutations in the leptin gene (2014)

Congenital leptin deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive monogenic obesity syndrome caused by mutations in the leptin gene. This review describes the molecular and cellular characteristics of the eight distinct mutations found so far in humans.
Re-targetable OCR with Intelligent Character Segmentation (2008)

We have developed a font-model based intelligent character segmentation and recognition system. Using characteristics of structurally similar TrueType fonts, our system automatically builds a model to be used for the segmentation and recognition of the new script, independent of glyph composition. The key is a reliance on known font attributes. In our system three feature extraction methods are used to demonstrate the importance of appropriate features for classification. The methods are tested on both Latin (English) and non-Latin (Khmer) scripts. Results show that the character-level recognition accuracy exceeds 92\% for Khmer and 96\% for English on degraded documents. This work is a step toward the recognition of scripts of low-density languages which typically do not warrant the development of commercial OCR, yet often have complete TrueType font descriptions.
Improving Electronic Sensor Reliability by Robust Outlier Screening (2013)

Electronic sensors are widely used in different application areas, and in some of them, such as automotive or medical equipment, they must perform with an extremely low defect rate. Increasing reliability is paramount. Outlier detection algorithms are a key component in screening latent defects and decreasing the number of customer quality incidents (CQIs). This paper focuses on new spatial algorithms (Good Die in a Bad Cluster with Statistical Bins (GDBC SB) and Bad Bin in a Bad Cluster (BBBC)) and an advanced outlier screening method, called Robust Dynamic Part Averaging Testing (RDPAT), as well as two practical improvements, which significantly enhance existing algorithms. Those methods have been used in production in Freescale® Semiconductor probe factories around the world for several years. Moreover, a study was conducted with production data of 289,080 dice with 26 CQIs to determine and compare the efficiency and effectiveness of all these algorithms in identifying CQIs.
Some effects of local anesthetics on schedule-controlled behavior. (1975)

The central effects of local anesthetics were compared with those of d-amphetamine, using the schedule-controlled behavior of the pigeon. Subconvulsant doses of cocaine and d-amphetamine produced similar effects on schedule-controlled behavior that were quite different from the effects of procaine, mepivacaine and lidocaine.
Dynamic Routing and Congestion Control Through Random Assignment of Routes | NIST (2008)

We introduce an algorithm for maximizing utility through congestion control and random allocation of routes to users. The allocation is defined by a probability distribution whose degree of randomness as measured by its entropy, is controlled. We seek to use the entropy to modulate between the two extremes of path specification; minimum cost path selection on one end and equiprobable path allocation on the other. We explore the trade-off between stability and utility in two sample topologies.
Whale-lice (Amphipoda: Cyamidae) in Dutch waters (1973)

Three species of whale-lice are recorded from Dutch waters: Platycyamus thompsoni (Gosse, 1855), Cyamus catodontis Margolis, 1954, and Isocyamus delphinii (GuÃ©rin-MÃ©neville, 1836). Cyamus catodontis is recorded moreover for the first time from several subantarctic localities. Isocyamus delphinii is recorded from a new host, Phocoena phocoena (Linnaeus, 1758). The records for C. catodontis and I. delphinii constitute considerable extensions of the known range.
Advancing Assessment of Children and Adolescents: Commentary on Evidence-Based Assessment of Child and Adolescent Disorders (2005)

This article addresses the following cross-cutting issues evident in the special section of this issue: (a) current diagnoses do not provide adequate validity criteria; (b) the heterogeneity and comorbidity of target problems raise taxonomic challenges; (c) accurate assessment requires integration of multisource data; (d) developmental variations must be accommodated; (e) appropriate norms are needed; and (f) categorical and quantitative approaches are not incompatible. Less evident in the special section articles but equally important are the need to cope with multicultural issues, avoid premature closure regarding diagnostic labels, assess caregivers, and standardize broad-spectrum assessment procedures. Studies and use of evidence-based treatment (EBT) should be linked to evidence-based assessment (EBA) to advance both EBT and EBA.
ON THE DETERMINATION OF THE DOWNGOING P‐WAVES RADIATED BY THE VERTICAL SEISMIC VIBRATOR* (1984)

A bstract It is well recognized that in order to realize the full potential of the Vibroseis technique, one needs to ensure accurate phase locking and a meaningful cross‐correlation. To achieve these two important objectives we require an accurate estimate of the compressional stress wave radiated by the vibrator into the ground. In this paper a simple method (subject of a patent application) is developed for predicting the compressional stress waves radiated by a vertical vibrator. The main feature of the proposed method is that it involves the field measurement of the acceleration of the reaction mass and the baseplate, respectively. The method is illustrated by computing the compressional stress waves generated by a typical vertical vibrator radiating into ice, chalk, sand, and mud. It is shown that for a seismic vibrator radiating into hard ground the pressure of the downgoing P‐wave is 180° out of phase with the baseplate velocity. It is also shown that when the driving force of the seismic vibrator has a flat amplitude spectrum, the amplitude spectrum of the downgoing P‐wave falls off by 6 dB/octave towards low frequencies.

Independent Metalloregulation of Ace1 and Mac1 in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> (2005)

Ace1 and Mac1 undergo reciprocal copper metalloregulation in yeast cells. Mac1 is functional as a transcriptional activator in copper-deficient cells, whereas Ace1 is a transcriptional activator in copper-replete cells. Cells undergoing a transition from copper-deficient to copper-sufficient conditions through a switch in the growth medium show a rapid inactivation of Mac1 and a corresponding rise in Ace1 activation. Cells analyzed after the transition show a massive accumulation of cellular copper. Under these copper shock conditions we show, using two epitope-tagged variants of Mac1, that copper-mediated inhibition of Mac function is independent of induced protein turnover. The transcription activity of Mac1 is rapidly inhibited in the copper-replete cells, whereas chromatin immunoprecipitation studies showed only partial copper-induced loss of DNA binding. Thus, the initial event in copper inhibition of Mac1 function is likely copper inhibition of the transactivation activity. Copper inhibition of Mac1 in transition experiments is largely unaffected in cells overexpressing copper-binding proteins within the nucleus. Likewise, high expression of a copper-binding, non-DNA-binding Mac1 mutant is without effect on the copper activation of Ace1. Thus, metalloregulation of Ace1 and Mac1 occurs independently.
Next generation avalanche photodiodes: realising new potentials using nm wide avalanche regions (2016)

Each year, the flow of Internet data around the world increases exponentially. Therefore, each year, telecommunication companies must improve data management and develop new high speed optical network components. In non-coherent detection, InGaAs p-i- n diodes are used in the detector modules for 40 to 100 GB/s networks. Sparate Absorption-Multiplication (SAM) avalanche photodiodes are a major improvemnent from p-i-n diodes, in which light absorption and avalanche gain occurs in different parts of the APDs. Unfortunately, commercial SAM APDs employing InGaAs/InP, and more recently InGaAs/InAlAs, are unable to provide sufficient bandwidth with appreciable gain at 40 Gb/s and higher. This is due to their low gain-bandwidth product (GBP). SAM APDs with w < 50 nm and negligible tunnelling current can potentially raise the GBP from 200 GHz to 1 THz, boosting the performance of next-generation Tb/s Direct Detection systems. A new wide-band gap material, AlAsSb, has been chosen as a suitable candidate to replace InAlAs. In this thesis is summarised data taken from Al1-xGaxAs0.56Sb0.44 (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, + + 0.15) p i n diode structures. It is included all results obtained for I-V, C-V, avalanche gain, spectral response, and temperature dependence of avalanche breakdown. Also, is presented a study of several alternatives when carrying out the mesa step fabrication process, in order to achieve uniform avalanche gain across a given sample.
pCMPS-induced changes in lens membrane permeability and transparency. (1993)

pCMPS at low concentrations induces many of the cation permeability changes previously found to occur with age and cataract in the lens. The fact that quinine can ameliorate pCMPS-induced changes in ion movements and opacification suggests a novel approach for membrane-based anticataract strategies.
Preparation and adsorption properties of the chelating fibers containing amino groups (1994)

Abstract Four kinds of amino‐group‐containing chelating fibers were prepared by reacting diethylenetriamine, diethanolamine, diethylamine, and aminopyridine, respectively, with a grafted fiber PVA‐ g ‐GMA containing epoxy groups. The γ‐ray preirradiation initiated graft copolymerization of GMA onto PVA fiber, the functionalization of the grafted fiber PVA‐ g ‐GMA with amino compounds, and the adsorption properties of the obtained chelating fibers were systematically investigated. It is concluded that with increasing monomer concentration, reaction time, and temperature, the grafting percentage increases significantly. In the functionalization of the grafted fiber, reaction time, temperature, solvent, and amount of amine used greatly influence the reaction. 1,4‐Dioxane is a reasonable solvent for the reaction. The chelating fibers present great adsorption amounts and high adsorption rates for Cu 2+ ion and Au 3+ ion. Among the chelating fibers, the fiber with diethylenetriamine group is the most reasonable chelating fiber for the adsorption of Cu 2+ and Au 3+ . The chelating fibers present good selectivities for Cu 2+ in the solution with Cu 2+ , Mn 2+ , Ni 2+ , Co 2+ , and Zn 2+ , while presenting quite high selectivities for Au 3+ ion in the solution with Cu 2+ , Au 3+ , Zn 2+ , and Cr 3+ ions. The chelating fiber with diethanolamine or diethylamine can reduce the adsorbed Au 3+ into metallic gold. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Cathelicidins and innate defense against invasive bacterial infection (2003)

Cathelicidins are small cationic peptides that possess broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. These gene-encoded ‘natural antibiotics ’ are produced by several mammalian species on epithelial surfaces and within the granules of phagocytic cells. Since their discovery over a decade ago, cathelicidins have been speculated to function within the innate immune system, contributing to a first line of host defense against an array of microorganisms. Consequently, cathelicidins have captured the interest of basic investigators in the diverse fields of cell biology, immunology, protein chemistry and microbiology. A burgeoning body of experimental research now appears to confirm and extend the biological significance of these fascinating molecules. This article reviews the latest advances in the knowledge of cathelicidin antimicrobial peptides, with particular emphasis on their role in defense against invasive bacterial infection and associations with human disease conditions.
LBNP: Past Protocols and Technical Considerations for Experimental Design (2008)

Based on the review, we developed guidelines for using LBNP in a predictable and reproducible manner. Variables that must be controlled include subject characteristics, procedures, and environmental conditions as well as specifications for the LBNP chamber and seal positioning. An understanding of the many technical details of such experiments and the nature of elicited cardiovascular and neurohormonal responses is required to design optimal protocols to address specific research questions.
HEATING PAD FOR THE HEAD AND ADNEXA (1937)

A heating pad tailored to fit the head and adnexa has been developed for persons who find it necessary to apply heat to the head but who have great difficulty in applying the ordinary heating pad to this part. Because of the circular crown, the attached flaps may easily be adjusted to any area about the head, face and neck. The heating element consists of fine asbestos-covered nicochrome wire, mounted on a stout piece of canvas in such a way as to distribute the heat equally over the entire pad, whether it be in the crown or in the flaps. This layer is protected by a fold of heavy flannel over which is a covering of durable woolen material. It is lined with water-proof shantung silk especially prepared to resist heat. The entire fabric is easily cleansed and kept fresh with naphtha or gasoline. There is a double thermostatic control

Reading the Correct History? Modeling Temporal Intention in Resource Sharing (2013)

The web is trapped in the "perpetual now", and when users traverse from page to page, they are seeing the state of the web resource (i.e., the page) as it exists at the time of the click and not necessarily at the time when the link was made. Thus, a temporal discrepancy can arise between the resource at the time the page author created a link to it and the time when a reader follows the link. This is especially important in the context of social media: the ease of sharing links in a tweet or Facebook post allows many people to author web content, but the space constraints combined with poor awareness by authors often prevents sufficient context from being generated to determine the intent of the post. If the links are clicked as soon as they are shared, the temporal distance between sharing and clicking is so small that there is little to no difference in content. However, not all clicks occur immediately, and a delay of days or even hours can result in reading something other than what the author intended. We introduce the concept of a user's temporal intention upon publishing a link in social media. We investigate the features that could be extracted from the post, the linked resource, and the patterns of social dissemination to model this user intention. Finally, we analyze the historical integrity of the shared resources in social media across time. In other words, how much is the knowledge of the author's intent beneficial in maintaining the consistency of the story being told through social posts and in enriching the archived content coverage and depth of vulnerable resources?
Infection of pigs and cattle with bovine viral diarrhoea virus on a farm in England (1992)

Deaths within a litter of sucking pigs led to a suspicion of hog cholera, but pestiviruses isolated from both dead and live piglets appeared to be bovine viral diarrhoea virus. Persistent viraemia with bovine viral diarrhoea virus was demonstrated in living littermates and also in a bought-in calf, housed in a nearby pen on the same farm. Only two of the littermates survived, both of which had been virus negative and seropositive from the outset of testing. Porcine and bovine virus isolates grew well in calf testicular cells and were neutralised equally by sera collected at the farm from cattle and pigs. However, a comparison by means of their reactivity to monoclonal antibodies showed that they were similar but not identical, and only the porcine isolates grew well in a porcine kidney cell line.
