Robust Multiple Car Tracking With Occlusion Reasoning (1994)

In this paper, the authors address the problem of traffic surveillance in an Advanced Transportation Management System. They propose a new approach for detecting and tracking vehicles in road traffic scenes that attains a level of accuracy and reliability which lies beyond currently available systems. High accuracy and reliability are obtained by using an explicit occlusion reasoning step, employing a contour tracker based on intensity and motion boundaries.
Effect of Intermittent Pneumatic Compression of Foot and Calf on Walking Distance, Hemodynamics, and Quality of Life in Patients With Arterial Claudication (2005)

IPCfoot+calf emerged as an effective, high-compliance, complication-free method for improving the walking ability and pressure indices in stable claudication, with a durable outcome. These changes were associated with a significant improvement in all aspects of QOL evaluated with the SF-36. Despite some limited benefit noted in some individuals, unsupervised exercise had a nonsignificant impact overall.
Determination of somatostatin in its injection by HPLC (2002)

A new assay method of somatostatin infection by HPLC was described, which was accurate, repeatable and easy to oprate.
The Aura Mission and Its Application to Climate and Air Quality (2003)

NASA's Aura satellite is scheduled to launch in the second quarter of 2004 into a polar orbit. The Aura mission is designed to collect data to address three high priority environmental science questions: (1) Is the ozone layer recovering as expected? (2) What are the sources and processes that control tropospheric pollutants? And (3) what is the quantitative impact of constituents on climate change? Aura will answer these questions by globally measuring a comprehensive set of trace gases and aerosols in the troposphere and stratosphere. Aura data will also have applications for monitoring and predicting climate and air quality parameters. Aura s observations will continue the TOMS ozone trend record and provide an assessment as to whether the Montreal Protocol is achieving its objective. Aura will measure gases and aerosols in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere that contribute to climate forcing. These data will be of sufficient coverage, vertical resolution, and accuracy to help constrain climate models. In addition, Aura observations of tropospheric ozone and its precursors will have regional as well as intercontinental coverage, which could improve emission inventories. Near real time data will tested for local air quality forecasts in collaboration with the US's Environmental Protection UV-B forecasts from Aura ozone and cloud cover data. An overview of Aura s instruments, data products, validation, and examples of data applications will be presented.

Antitumor agents. 123. Synthesis and human DNA topoisomerase II inhibitory activity of 2'-chloro derivatives of etoposide and 4.beta.-(arylamino)-4'-O-demethylpodophyllotoxins (1992)

The 2'-chloro derivatives of etoposide and 4 beta-(arylamino)-4'-O-demethylpodophyllotoxins have been synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against the human DNA topoisomerase II as well as for their activity in causing cellular protein-linked DNA breakage. The results showed that none of the compounds are active as a result of the C-2' chloro substitution on ring E. This would suggest that the free rotation of ring E is essential for the aforementioned enzyme inhibitory activity. In addition, these 2'-chloro derivatives showed no significant cytotoxicity (KB).
Experimental Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) on EMD SD59MX 2.238 Megawatt Diesel-Electric Freight Locomotives (2012)

In July 2008, Union Pacific Railroad (UP) and Electro-Motive Diesel, Inc. (EMD) began discussions to jointly investigate the potential for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) on a small group of re-powered UP locomotives, to assess the potential for EGR as a technology to meet the oxides of nitrogen (NOx) requirement in US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Tier 4 locomotive emissions regulations on newly-manufactured future diesel locomotives effective January 1, 2015 [1]. After several years of research, engineering and experimental testing, EMD began delivering to UP in late-2011 nine SD59MX experimental locomotives equipped with prototype EGR technology as a first step to achieving Tier 4 NOx reductions, plus a tenth SD59MX unit equipped with both the EGR technology and an experimental whole-engine aftertreatment package to migrate toward Tier 4 particulate matter (PM) levels on future new Tier 4 locomotives. Compared to today’s Tier 2 emission limits, the EGR equipped SD59MX produces 42 percent less NOx, a significant step toward the development of new Tier 4 locomotives.
ION ASSOCIATION. VI. INTERACTIONS BETWEEN CALCIUM, MAGNESIUM, INORGANIC PHOSPHATE, CITRATE AND PROTEIN IN NORMAL HUMAN PLASMA* (1961)

The total measured concentration of an ionizable constituent of body fluids often fails to reveal either the varied chemical forms in which it may be present, or the portion which is present as the free ionized substance. This truism applies to most organic acids and bases and to inorganic ions which are multivalent. Univalent ions whose cor

Precursors of Bipolar Disorders (2015)

Despite the limitations of published reports, prospectively identified precursors of bipolar disorder typically arose years prior to syndromal onset, often with significant early morbidity and disability. Prospectively identified precursors of bipolar disorder are generally consistent with findings in retrospective and family-risk studies. Combining precursors and other risk factors may increase predictive value, support earlier diagnosis, improve treatment, and limit disability in bipolar disorder.
Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 and Retinoic Acid Accelerate <i>in Vivo</i> Bone Formation, Osteoclast Recruitment, and Bone Turnover (2005)

Reconstruction of craniofacial defects presents a substantial biomedical burden, and requires complex surgery. Interestingly, children after age 2 years and adults are unable to heal large skull defects. This nonhealing paradigm provides an excellent model system for craniofacial skeletal tissueengineering strategies. Previous studies have documented the in vivo osteogenic potential of adipose-derived stromal (ADS) cells and bone marrow-derived stromal (BMS) cells. This study investigates the ability to accelerate in vivo osteogenesis on ex vivo recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and retinoic acid stimulation. Mouse osteoblasts, ADS cells, and BMS cells were seeded onto apatite-coated PLGA scaffolds, stimulated with rhBMP-2 and retinoic acid ex vivo for 4 weeks, and subsequently implanted into critically sized (4 mm) calvarial defects. Samples were harvested after 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks. Areas of complete bony bridging were noted as early as 2 weeks in vivo; however, osteoclasts were attracted to the scaffold as identified by calcitonin receptor staining and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity staining. Although the optimal method of in vitro osteogenic priming for mesenchymal cells remains unknown, these results provide evidence that BMP-2 and retinoic acid stimulation of multipotent cells ex vivo can subsequently induce significant quantities of bone formation within a short time period in vivo.
Deposition of TiONC Coatings by Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation and Deposition (2009)

Abstract According to its high temperature stability, low friction coefficient, and relatively high hardness, titanium oxynitride is a good candidate for wear protection. However, titanium oxynitride is brittle which limits its application as a protective coating on metallic substrates for special applications. In this work, TiONC films were deposited by magnetron sputtering of Ti target and simultaneous implantation of N, O, and Ar. The samples are immersed in an Ar + N 2 plasma in an atmosphere containing C and O during simultaneous deposition and implantation. The effects of implantation energy, ion on atom ratio, and gas mixture on microstructure, chemical composition, and mechanical properties of TiONC coatings were studied.
Screening the recognition properties of peptide hormone sequence mutants by analytical high performance liquid affinity chromatography on immobilized neurophysin (1988)

Analytical high performance liquid affinity chromatography with immobilized neurophysin was used as a molecular screen to evaluate the effects of peptide hormone structure modification on protein recognition. Immobilization of neurophysin on silica and highly cross-linked agarose occurred with retention of oxytocin and vasopressin binding properties. The effects of one-residue-at-a-time mutation, multi-site sequence simplification, and sequence randomization of critical contact residues were evaluated by extent of binding of the peptides on the affinity matrix. The analytical chromatography method also was used as a stereoselective detector to identify racemic contaminants in peptide hormone preparations.
A Simulation Approach to Evaluate the Time Cost of Parallel Computations (1997)

In this paper, the execution time cost of a parallel computation in a shared memory environment is defined as a function of the input, the algorithm, the data structure, the processor speed, the number of processors, the processing power allocation and the communication between processors. The computation structure model is modified to describe the impact of these seven factors on the computation's execution time cost. A simulation technique is developed to analyze and evaluate the computation's execution time. A software tool, TCSS (Time Cost Simulation System) that implements the simulation technique is also described.
Dissection of brefeldin A-sensitive and -insensitive steps in apicoplast protein targeting (2005)

The apicoplast is a relict plastid found in many apicomplexans, including the pathogens Toxoplasma gondii and Plasmodium falciparum. Nucleus-encoded apicoplast proteins enter the ER, and after cleavage of the signal sequence, are routed to the apicoplast by virtue of a transit peptide, which is subsequently removed. To assess the mechanisms of localization we examined stable transfectants of T. gondii for the localization and processing of various GFP fusion proteins. GFP fusions bearing apicoplast targeting sequences targeted efficiently to the plastid, with no retention in the ER, even when an ER retention/retrieval sequence was added. Incubation with brefeldin A, which blocks ER-to-Golgi trafficking by inhibiting a GTP exchange factor required for retrograde trafficking, blocked the processing of the protein. Surprisingly, it did not affect the immunofluorescence pattern. To avoid the potentially misleading presence of pre-existing GFP fusion protein in the apicoplast, we used a ligand-regulated aggregation system to arrest the GFP fusion protein in the ER prior to trafficking. Upon addition of ligand to promote disaggregation, the fusion protein targeted to the plastid, even in the presence of brefeldin A. Ligand release at 15 degrees C, which blocks trafficking of Golgi-routed proteins, also allowed significant localization to the plastid. Our data indicate that apicoplast proteins can localize to the region of the plastid when Golgi trafficking is inhibited, but suggest that some steps in import or maturation of the proteins may require a brefeldin A-sensitive GTP exchange factor.

Where are the robots? In-feed embedded techniques for visualizing robot team member locations (2017)

We present a set of mini-map alternatives for indicating the relative locations of robot team members in a tele-operation interface, and evaluation results showing that these can perform as well as mini-maps while being less intrusive. Teleoperation operators often work with a team of robots to improve task effectiveness. Maintaining awareness of where robot team members are, relative to oneself, is important for team effectiveness, such as for deciding which robot may help with a task, may be best suited to investigate a point of interest, or to determine where one should move next. We explore the use of established interface techniques from mobile computing for supporting teleoperators in maintaining peripheral awareness of robot team members' relative locations. We evaluate the nontrivial adoption of these techniques to teleoperation, comparing to an overview mini-map base case. Our results indicate that in-feed embedded indicators perform comparatively well to mini-maps, while being less obtrusive, indicating that they are a viable alternative for teleoperation interfaces.
Expansions of _4F_3 when the upper parameters differ by integers (1998)

In this article three expansion formulas for a generalized hypergeometric function $_4F_3$ are derived, when its upper parameters differ by integers. Though the results are special cases of a general continuation formula for $_pF_q$, they are sufficiently general and unify a number of known results.
KNAVE II (2004)

KNAVE-II is an intelligent interface to a distributed web-based architecture that enables users (e.g., physicians) to query, visualize and explore clinical time-oriented databases. Based on prior studies, we have defined a set of requirements for provision of a service for interactive exploration of time oriented clinical data. The main requirements include the visualization, interactive exploration and explanation of both raw data and multiple levels of concepts abstracted from these data; the exploration of clinical data at different levels of temporal granularity along both absolute (calendar-based) and relative (clinically meaningful) time-lines; the exploration and dynamic visualization of the effects of simulated hypothetical modifications of raw data on the derived concepts; and the provision of generic services (such as statistics, documentation, fast search and retrieval of clinically significant concepts, amongst others). KNAVE-II has been implemented and is currently evaluated by expert clinicians in several medical domains, such as oncology, involving monitoring of chronic patients.
6차산업 현장활용을 위한 외식중심형 농가레스토랑 만족도제고 연구 (2014)

The main study results are presented as follows: First, this work investigated the positive effects of the variables according to the characteristics local food choice, including satisfaction for previous expectation, recommendation intention, and revisit intention. The investigation result revealed that management of local food and purchase management of local food were the most effect factors on previous expectation, recommendation intention, and revisit intention. Therefore, the hypothesis 1 prepared in this work was accepted. Secondly, this work looked into the positive effects of satisfaction for previous expectation of local food on recommendation intention and revisit intention. As a result, it was found that previous expectation of local food was the main factor affecting both recommendation intention and revisit intention. In particular, it was found that the two factors (recommendation intention β＝.493, revisit intention β＝.437) had similar influence. Therefore, the hypothesis 2 in this work was accepted. Thirdly, regarding the positive effects of local food recommendation intention and revisit intention, it was found that the two variables had influence (β＝.833) of positive effect. Therefore, the hypothesis 3 in this work was accepted.
Oxidized LDL and Atherogenesis<sup>a</sup> (1999)

A brief review of recent findings regarding the role of oxidized low-density lipoproteins (Ox-LDL) in atherogenesis. Lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage to LDL make arteries susceptible to chronic inflammation, which is known to cause alterations in arterial gene expression and promote lesion development. Treatment protocols implementing antioxidants for preventing cardiovascular diseases are suggested.
Elastomer Stereospecific Polymerization (1966)

Elucidating the mechanism of stereospecific polymerization by Ziegler-Natta-type organometallic catalysts has been unusually challenging owing to difficulty in establishing the exact nature of the active species in these heterogeneous systems. Considerable success has been achieved, however, with homogeneous systems involving organolithium initiators. It is concluded that the chain growth process in these systems is not a result of simple molecular collision but involves an intermediate complex formation between the carbon—metal bond and the monomer. This is confirmed by the few available kinetic measurements which indicate that the propagation reaction has a low energy but a very high entropy, and may help to explain the occurrence of stereospecific polymerization in the case of certain monomers.
Development and Build-up of a Hybrid Commercial Vehicle (2011)

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Main topics are the development and the build-up of an 18ton hybrid truck with a parallel hybrid drivetrain. With this truck it is possible to drive up to 3 kilometers in the pure electric driving mode. In this R&amp;D Project the Engineering Center Steyr, a company of MAGNA Powertain has developed a hybrid truck with an integrated motor generator (IMG) including a clutch system for pure electric driving. Also a Li-Ion power battery, electrified traction voltage auxiliaries (steering pump, air compressor and climate compressor) and a cooling system for the new power electric components.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The beginning of the paper shows a detailed layout of the developed hybrid truck. Chapter two shows the developed simulation model which is used for the dimensioning and for detailed simulations of hybrid drivetrains. To simulate thermal effects, a co-simulation environment between a longitudinal dynamics and thermal management software is applied. The longitudinal dynamics software calculates the propulsion power which determines the thermal load of the components. Particular attention was given to the electrical and thermal behavior of the traction battery. The coupling of longitudinal and thermal simulation enables a realistic computation of the energy use, since the effects such as the change of efficiency by temperature and load can be taken into account. This behavior has a high influence in the development and tuning of the vehicle's components and operating strategy. Therefore a special focus is given to the operation strategy of hybrid commercial vehicles. Finally an application shows simulated data of the hybrid commercial vehicle on standardized driving cycles and also cycles with a high proportion of urban driving. These simulations show a meaningful influence on the temperature of the components, especially the battery.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">To gain high market shares for hybrid trucks the total cost of ownership will be the main driver, so the development of affordable hybrid components (battery, traction system and auxiliaries) with high efficiency and the development of optimized overall hybrid vehicles systems have to be the short term objective.</div></div>
New (Carbene)ruthenium−Arene Complexes:  Preparation and Uses in Catalytic Synthesis of Furans (1996)

A variety of neutral ruthenium−carbene complexes RuCl2(carbene)(arene) 1 (carbene = C(NR)C6H4(NR), R = Me (a), Et (b); arene = p-Me-C6H4-iPr (1), C6H3Me3 (2), C6Me6 (3)) have been prepared by reaction of [RuCl2(arene)]2 precursors with the enetetraamines (RN)C6H4(RN)CC(NR)C6H4(NR) I (R = Me) and II (R = Et). RuC(NCH2Ph)CH2CH2(NCH2Ph)Cl2(p-cymene) (4) was prepared similarly, whereas the reaction of [RuCl2(cycloocta-1,5-diene)]n with I led to the formation of the 16-electron neutral complex RuCl2[C(NMe)C6H4(NMe)]3 (6). One of them (3a) was transformed into the dihydride derivative RuH2(C(NMe)C6H4NMe)(C6Me6) (5). The cyclic voltammograms of derivatives 1−3 show that they are oxidized in the range E1/2 = 1.03−1.31 V vs SCE and are more electrophilic than the isoelectronic RuCl2(PR3)(arene) complexes. Derivatives 1a, 3a, and 3b act as efficient catalyst precursors for the electrophilic activation of the C⋮C bond of (Z)-3-methylpent-2-en-4-yn-1-ol to afford 2,3-dimethylfuran in good yield via intramolecular cyclization.
