Advanced spraying task strategy for bicycle-frame based on geometrical data of workpiece (2015)

Path planning and trajectory generation are the primary tasks for spray painting applications. However, for the most efficient spraying application, the detailed dimensional information of the workpiece along the generated path is essential. This paper introduces the shape signature approach for automatic identification and measurement of cross-sectional information of a bicycle frame model for advanced spraying task of 6-DOF robot. The path planning is generated from skeletal line of the point cloud model of the bicycle frame which is reconstructed by Kinect Fusion based algorithm. Cross-sectional shape and dimensions are autonomously identified along the generated spray-gun path and subsequently the corresponding spray task is applied in each segment. The spray-gun orientation and painting condition such as the spray speed, volume rate and internal and external pressures are automatically adjusted according to the cross-sectional information and nature of the path at the current pose of the end effector.
An efficient handover scheme for providing the inter-beam mobility (2014)

This paper proposes an inter-beam handover (IBH) scheme in millimeter wave (mmWave) communication systems. Since the width of a beam transmitted by a base station (BS) is very narrow, the IBH can frequently occur within a BS. For this reason, the previous handover scheme based on the radio resource control (RRC) message can cause the increase of the signaling overhead. In addition, the performance of the IBH can be dramatically deteriorated because the strength of the received signal can be rapidly decreased at the edge of a beam. To solve these problems, the proposed scheme performs the IBH by exploiting the medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) to reduce the signaling overhead, and it applies the inter-beam coordinated scheduling (IBCS) to improve the strength of the received signal at the edge of a beam.
Physiological effects of beta-D-glucan rich fractions from oats (1989)

Oat bran is particularly rich in beta-glucan. This article reviews studies which measure the physiological effects of the beta-glucan rich fraction of oats. The method of preparation of the beta-glucans is described and the physicochemical and analytical data are provided. The effect of oat gum on serum cholesterol levels and on blood glucose and insulin levels are given for rats and humans. Some comparisons with barley, also a good source of beta-glucan, are included
Detection of antibody to murine cytomegalovirus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent and indirect immunofluorescence assays (1987)

We have compared murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) antibody determination by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and indirect immunofluorescence assay. A comparison of antibody detection with 146 serum samples at a 1:20 dilution showed 100% agreement (60 negatives and 86 positives) between the assays. There was close agreement of endpoint determinations of sera by both methods. After experimental MCMV infection, antibody to MCMV was detected by both assays as early as day 7, and high titers persisted as late as 6 months. In contrast to immunocompetent littermates, athymic nude mice did not develop antibody after infection. Mice lacking antibody detectable by ELISA were susceptible to lethal MCMV challenge. In a survey of animals from five commercial sources, MCMV antibody was not detected unless mice were experimentally infected. MCMV antibody determination by ELISA is a convenient method, comparable to the indirect immunofluorescence assay in sensitivity and specificity.
Scalable logging through emerging non-volatile memory (2014)

Emerging byte-addressable, non-volatile memory (NVM) is fundamentally changing the design principle of transaction logging. It potentially invalidates the need for flush-before-commit as log records are persistent immediately upon write. Distributed logging---a once prohibitive technique for single node systems in the DRAM era---becomes a promising solution to easing the logging bottleneck because of the non-volatility and high performance of NVM. In this paper, we advocate NVM and distributed logging on multicore and multi-socket hardware. We identify the challenges brought by distributed logging and discuss solutions. To protect committed work in NVM-based systems, we propose passive group commit , a lightweight, practical approach that leverages existing hardware and group commit. We expect that durable processor cache is the ultimate solution to protecting committed work and building reliable, scalable NVM-based systems in general. We evaluate distributed logging with logging-intensive workloads and show that distributed logging can achieve as much as ~3x speedup over centralized logging in a modern DBMS and that passive group commit only induces minuscule overhead.
Test Length and Validity (1980)

The effect of test length on predictive validity is examined empirically by successively omitting the poorest items and by calculating the correlations between the reduced test scores and the criterion. It was found, for four tests, that the curve of validity against test length had a very gentle slope for the longer tests and that all tests could be reduced by more than 60% without appreciable decreases in validity.
A playback attack detector for speaker verification systems (2008)

A playback attack detector (PAD), which can be mobilized in guarding speaker verification systems against playback attacks, is described in this paper. To detect playback attacks, the PAD uses a feature set called peakmap, which includes the frame and FFT bin numbers of the five highest spectral peaks from each of the voiced frames in an utterance. During the detection, the peakmap of the incoming recording is first extracted and then compared to those of all the other recordings that are stored at the system end. Each comparison will yield a similarity score that represents the level of similarity between the two recordings. The incoming recording is declared to be a playback recording if its maximum similarity score is above a threshold.

Feasibility Study of a Fully Compliant Statically Balanced Laparoscopic Grasper (2004)

Compliant mechanisms have many advantages over their rigid-body counterparts. One disadvantage however is the fact that motion of the mechanism is associated with elastic energy storage in the compliant parts. This is a problem especially in cases where accurate force transmission is of primary concern, such as in medical graspers. A solution to this problem is to statically balance the elastic forces by the addition of a spring force compensation mechanism, such that the effect of the compliance is neutralized. The complete resulting mechanisms resulting from this concept are called statically balanced compliant mechanisms (SBCMs). This paper presents a feasibility study into the design of a grasper for medical purposes and demonstrates that the concept is possible and practically viable. It is shown that the compliant gripper of a laparoscopic forceps can be statically balanced with a single-piece compliant compensation mechanism, with a balancing error of only 0.03N while dimensions are such that the compensation part of the mechanism can be stored inside the hand grip of the instrument.
Improved Outcomes with Earlier Initiation of Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy Among Human Immunodeficiency Virus–Infected Patients Who Achieve Durable Virologic Suppression: Longer Follow‐Up of an Observational Cohort Study (2003)

On the basis of studies with relatively short follow-up, treatment guidelines currently recommend that highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) be initiated in asymptomatic human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients when the CD4+ lymphocyte count is < or =200 cells/mm3. We assessed the development of a new opportunistic infection or death among 1173 patients initiating HAART. Durable virologic suppression was defined as having more undetectable (<400 copies/mL) than detectable virus loads after the initiation of therapy. The median durations of therapy and follow-up were 29 and 36 months, respectively. Among patients who achieved durable virologic suppression, those with baseline CD4+ lymphocyte counts of <200 cells/mm3 tended to progress faster than those with baseline CD4+ lymphocyte counts of 201-350 cells/mm3 (P=.09) and progressed faster than those with baseline CD4+ lymphocyte counts of >350 cells/mm3 (P=.01). Among those with durable virologic suppression, there was no difference in disease progression between those with baseline CD4+ lymphocyte counts of 201-350 cells/mm3 and those with durable virologic suppression with baseline CD4+ lymphocyte counts of >350 cells/mm3 (P=.40). Initiating HAART with a CD4+ lymphocyte count of <200 cells/mm3 was associated with a higher risk of disease progression, even with durable virologic suppression. HAART should be initiated at CD4+ lymphocyte counts of >200 cells/mm3.
Soluble Polymer-Supported Ruthenium Porphyrin Catalysts for Epoxidation, Cyclopropanation, and Aziridination of Alkenes (2002)

[reaction: see text] Attachment of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) to ruthenium porphyrin via a covalent etheric bond gives soluble polymer-supported ruthenium catalysts 3-5. These catalysts exhibit high reactivity and selectivity toward alkene epoxidation with 2,6-dichloropyridine N-oxide and alkene cyclopropanation with diazo compounds. The application of these catalysts in the synthesis of unstable organic compounds has been demonstrated.
An Effector Domain Mutant of Arf6 Implicates Phospholipase D in Endosomal Membrane Recycling (2005)

In this study, we investigated the role of phospholipase D (PLD) in mediating Arf6 function in cells. Expression of Arf6 mutants that are defective in activating PLD, Arf6N48R and Arf6N48I, inhibited membrane recycling to the plasma membrane (PM), resulting in an accumulation of tubular endosomal membranes. Additionally, unlike wild-type Arf6, neither Arf6 mutant could generate protrusions or recruit the Arf6 GTPase activating protein (GAP) ACAP1 onto the endosome in the presence of aluminum fluoride. Remarkably, all of these phenotypes, including accumulated tubular endosomes, blocked recycling, and failure to make protrusions and recruit ACAP effectively, could be recreated in either untransfected cells or cells expressing wild-type Arf6 by treatment with 1-butanol to inhibit the formation of phosphatidic acid (PA), the product of PLD. Moreover, most of the defects present in cells expressing Arf6N48R or N48I could be reversed by treatment with agents expected to elevate PA levels in cells. Together, these observations provide compelling evidence that Arf6 stimulation of PLD is required for endosomal membrane recycling and GAP recruitment.

본 연구에서는 소량의 차량 위치정보를 통해 과거의 차량 위치를 추적하고, 운행궤적을 표현할 수 있는 방향각 정보를 이용한 하이브리드 기법을 제안하였다. 제안한 기법의 효율성을 검증하기 위해 다양한 조건 하에서 실제 차량 이동객체를 운행하여 차량 위치정보를 수집하였으며, 수집된 차량 위치정보에서 기존의 시간 간격별 차량 위치정보와 방향각 정보를 이용한 차량 위치정보를 추출하여 비교 분석하였다. 또한, 제안 기법의 효율성을 검증하기 위하여 GPS TrackMaker와 차영상 기법 그리고 일관성 비교, 정량적 비교, 차량 운행거리 비교 등 다양한 방법으로 비교 분석하였다. In this paper, the hybrid methods are suggested, which use the direction angle information to present running trajectory and track the past locations through a small amount of vehicle's location information. In order to prove the effectiveness of the new technique suggested here, vehicle's location information are collected by running the vehicles moving objects under various conditions. Using the location informations and direction angle information collected with time intervals, the vehicl e's location information is abstracted, compared and analyzed. and I have proved that the suggested techniques are more effective by comparing them with others in various methods such as GPS TrackMaker, difference image techniques, consistency comparison, quantity comparison, vehicle's running distances and so on.
Nucleotide sequence of the <i>Yersinia pestis</i> gene encoding F1 antigen and the primary structure of the protein (1990)

The plasmid-located gene caf1 encoding the capsular antigen fraction 1 (F1) of Yersinia pestis was cloned and sequenced. The gene codes for a 170 amino acid peptide with a deduced Mr of 17.6 kDa. The signal peptide sequence was highly homologous to the E. coli consensus signal sequence. The F1 was assumed to have beta-sheet structure for the most part. The region located between amino acids 100 and 150 was suggested to contain putative antigenic determinants and to stimulate T cells.
Parties and Elites in North African Politics: Algeria and Morocco (1971)

American political scientists discovered the Maghreb in the 1960's. It appeared to be a natural field for the systematic comparative study of political modernization, with revolutionary Algeria, liberal socialist Tunisia, and monarchical Morocco. As a region, the Maghreb shared a common Islamic cultural heritage, a common colonial experience at the hands of France, and a largely similar set of problems. This was the period of the first heady successes of the national liberation movements in the region. Morocco and Tunisia had become independent in 1957, and the Algerian war was in its last bitter stages: the future looked bright indeed. In this atomosphere the first generation of American political scientists came to their task, eager to test theories of political development then in their infancy. A large scholarly literature had prepared them to see political parties as their chief object of concern (most of it concerned with Western democracies). The role of political parties in the independence struggles in Asia and Africa seemed to suggest that they were especially worthy objects of study. In each of the three Maghreb countries, moreover, a distinctive political party had emerged: in Tunisia the Neo-Destour, in Algeria the FLN, and in Morocco the Istiqlal. It was therefore logical that the major focus of this first generation or researchers should have been the role of the parties in modernization. As a result we have the studies of D. Ashford (1961), C. Gallagher (1963), I. W. Zartman (1964), C. Micaud with L. C. Brown and C. H. Moore (1964), and C. H. Moore (1965).1 As a group, their

Succinic semialdehyde couples stress response to quorum‐sensing signal decay in <i>Agrobacterium tumefaciens</i> (2006)

Quorum sensing (QS) signal decay in Agrobacterium tumefaciens occurs in response to starvation or host signals. We have demonstrated that the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) shunt metabolite links stress response to QS signal decay. Mutation of the aldH gene encoding a succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) that converts succinic semialdehyde (SSA) to succinic acid results in early expression of the signal degrading enzyme, AttM. Exogenous addition of SSA or its precursor GABA induces AttM expression and abolishes Ti plasmid conjugative transfer. SSA acts by binding to the repressor AttJ that regulates the attKLM operon. attK encodes another SSADH. The stress alarmone ppGpp and SSA modulates separately the expression of the two SSADH enzymes, which might control the intracellular SSA level and hence to switch on/off the QS signal decay system in response to environmental changes. These findings document for the first time a sophisticated signalling mechanism of the widely conserved GABA degradation pathway in prokaryotes.
Miquel Àngel Tena: Poesia i crit de la terra (2002)

Des de fa molts anys aquest agitador cultural ha combinat la poesia i la canco tradicional per tots els racons dels Paisos Catalans. Per sobre de les terres de ponent sorgeix aquest crit de poesia i de revolta que sembla voler travessar aquesta boira que plana pel nostre paisatge. Enigmatic i sorrut, brusc com les roques del Montsec o suau com els camps de blat a la primavera, Miquel Angel Tena ha decidit mantenir-se amb totes les seves consequencies, amb aquells creadors que no fan concessions a les exigencies del mercat o de les modes.
Hyperspectral imaging applied to medical diagnoses and food safety (2003)

This paper analyzes the feasibility and performance of HSI systems for medical diagnosis as well as for food safety. Illness prevention and early disease detection are key elements for maintaining good health. Health care practitioners worldwide rely on innovative electronic devices to accurately identify disease. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is an emerging technique that may provide a less invasive procedure than conventional diagnostic imaging. By analyzing reflected and fluorescent light applied to the human body, a HSI system serves as a diagnostic tool as well as a method for evaluating the effectiveness of applied therapies. The safe supply and production of food is also of paramount importance to public health illness prevention. Although this paper will focus on imaging and spectroscopy in food inspection procedures -- the detection of contaminated food sources -- to ensure food quality, HSI also shows promise in detecting pesticide levels in food production (agriculture.)
IS THE TIME OF RESPONSE A FACTOR THAT DETERMINES THE BRAND RECALL/IMAGE? (2014)

Branding aims to establish a significant and differentiated presence in the market that attracts and retain loyal customers. Hence,some of the elements for the brand awarenessarethe use of highly emotional images and the time of exposure of the announcement. In this experimental study, the main purpose was to determine if there is a relationship between the time of response and the brand recall on affective images (IAPS). However, one hundred and forty eight (148) students from universities in Mexico City participated in this study, and the results suggested that the time of response is not a factor that determines the brand recall.
Preliminary microviscometer studies of carbon black/ rubber/ bitumen dispersions (1962)

Theoretical considerations indicate that colloidally dispersed carbon black may improve the rheological properties and perhaps the durability of asphaltic bitumens. An examination of two series of dispersions, one containing rubber, has been made using a microviscometer. Experimental evidence of a marked stiffening effect and indications of other minor improvements due to carbon black were found, but were more than offset by the fluxing action of the aromatic oils necessary to facilitate dispersion in the bitumens. A basis for further investigations has been established (A).
Asynchronous design of networks-on-chip (2007)

The Network-on-chip concept has evolved as a solution to a broad range of problems related to the design of complex systems-on-chip (SoC) with tenths or hundreds of (heterogeneous) IP-cores. The paper introduces the NoC concept, identifies a range of possible timing organizations (globally-synchronous, mesochronous, globally-asynchronous locally-synchronous and fully asynchronous), discusses the circuitry needed to implement these timing methodologies, and provides some implementation details for a couple of asynchronous NoCs designed at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). The paper is written to support an invited talk at the NORCHIP'2007 conference.
