CD8+ TCR Repertoire Formation Is Guided Primarily by the Peptide Component of the Antigenic Complex (2012)

CD8(+) T cells recognize infected or dysregulated cells via the clonotypically expressed αβ TCR, which engages Ag in the form of peptide bound to MHC class I (MHC I) on the target cell surface. Previous studies have indicated that a diverse Ag-specific TCR repertoire can be beneficial to the host, yet the determinants of clonotypic diversity are poorly defined. To better understand the factors that govern TCR repertoire formation, we conducted a comprehensive clonotypic analysis of CD8(+) T cell populations directed against epitopes derived from EBV and CMV. Neither pathogen source nor the restricting MHC I molecule were linked with TCR diversity; indeed, both HLA-A and HLA-B molecules were observed to interact with an overlapping repertoire of expressed TRBV genes. Peptide specificity, however, markedly impacted TCR diversity. In addition, distinct peptides sharing HLA restriction and viral origin mobilized TCR repertoires with distinct patterns of TRBV gene usage. Notably, no relationship was observed between immunodominance and TCR diversity. These findings provide new insights into the forces that shape the Ag-specific TCR repertoire in vivo and highlight a determinative role for the peptide component of the peptide-MHC I complex on the molecular frontline of CD8(+) T cell-mediated immune surveillance.
Photon contribution to tumor dose from considerations of <sup>131</sup>I radiolabeled antibody uptake in liver, spleen, and whole body (1993)

The contribution of penetrating photon energy to tumor dose is usually ignored because of the difficulty in calculating absorbed fractions and because it is frequently assumed to represent a small proportion of the total energy. The MABDOSE software--written explicitly to simulate photon transport for the calculation of penetrating radiation absorbed fractions--was used to simulate the 131I photon spectrum originating from the liver, spleen, and whole body source organs. Specific absorbed fractions were calculated for tumors of radius 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 cm placed near the liver and spleen in the Reference Man geometry. Cumulated activities were estimated using values reported from the literature. Dosimetry estimates from the combined cumulated activity and specific absorbed fractions indicate that neglecting the photon contribution underestimates the tumor dose by 10%-25%.
Regression-based Online Anomaly Detection for Smart Grid Data. (2016)

With the widely used smart meters in the energy sector, anomaly detection becomes a crucial mean to study the unusual consumption behaviors of customers, and to discover unexpected events of using energy promptly. Detecting consumption anomalies is, essentially, a real-time big data analytics problem, which does data mining on a large amount of parallel data streams from smart meters. In this paper, we propose a supervised learning and statistical-based anomaly detection method, and implement a Lambda system using the in-memory distributed computing framework, Spark and its extension Spark Streaming. The system supports not only iterative detection model refreshment from scalable data sets, but also real-time detection on scalable live data streams. This paper empirically evaluates the system and the detection algorithm, and the results show the effectiveness and the scalability of the proposed lambda detection system.
Vision based distance measurement system using two-dimensional barcode for mobile robot (2017)

In future world, mobile robots for home services are expected to solve productivity problem. Especially, vision based mobile robots will be able to perform many tasks due to their characteristics of using camera. In this regard, landmark detection methods using a camera have been used in many robots because it is easy to measure the position. In this paper, we propose a distance measurement system by detecting two-dimensional barcode which can be used landmark for unmanned ground robot. In experiments, the position of the camera is expressed as (x, y) through the 2D barcode recognition in the 4·4 grid map.
How to create and use 3D Wheeler transformed seismic volumes (2006)

In this paper we discuss benefits of interpreting seismic data in the Wheeler transformed domain. In this domain seismic data or derived attributes are flattened along chrono‐stratigraphic lines whilst truncations and non‐depositional / erosional hiatuses are honored. We start by explaining the workflow and the data‐driven chrono‐stratigrahic assignment algorithm we use to flatten the data. We continue with a discussion on sequence stratigraphic interpretation and how chrono‐stratigraphy and lap‐out patterns are used to perform system tracts interpretation. Finally we give a preview of sequence stratigraphic interpretation techniques that are under development.
<title>The Relationship Between The Quality Control Of Night Vision Objectives And Their Use</title> (1976)

This paper considers the nature and magnitude of the influence of the spectral bandwidth on the relevant optical quality MTF of a night vision objective as measured during testing and quality control and its relationship to that which is "seen" during applications. The results show that the practical constraints placed on the quality control criteria may lead to MTFs which are widely different from that "seen" during applications. The origins of this difference are also discussed.
Analysis of a novel converter topology for switched reluctance machine drives (2005)

A novel converter topology for SRM drives is proposed and analyzed in the paper. The topology is very flexible and can work well in all conditions including low and high speeds in monitoring and generating modes. Furthermore, the converter is compact since the separate transistor switches and diodes are replaced with off-the-self integrated power modules, greatly reducing the connection inductance and EMI effects. In addition, the limitation of the proposed converter topology is discussed. Experimental investigation is conducted and the results are provided to verify the proposed converter.
More efficient home energy management system based on ZigBee communication and infrared remote controls (2011)

This paper describes more efficient home energy management system to reduce power consumption in home area. We consider the room easily controllable with an IR remote control of a home device. The room has automatic standby power cut-off outlets, a light, and a ZigBee hub. The ZigBee hub has an IR code learning function and educates the IR remote control signal of a home device connected to the power outlet. Then the power outlets and the light in the room can be controlled with an IR remote control. A typical automatic standby power cut-off outlet has a waiting time before cutting off the electric power. It consumes standby power during that time. To eliminate the waiting time, we turn off the home device and the power outlet simultaneously with an IR remote control through the ZigBee hub. This method actively reduces the standby power. The proposed HEMS provides easy way to add, delete, and move home devices to other power outlets. When a home device is moved to the different outlet, the energy information of the home device is kept consistently and seamlessly regardless of location change. The proposed architecture gives more efficient energy-saving HEMS.
Natural Product Terpenoids in Eocene and Miocene Conifer Fossils (2002)

Numerous saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons, but not polar compounds, originating from plants and microorganisms (biomarkers) have been reported in sediments, coals, and petroleum. Here we describe natural product terpenoids found in two fossil conifers, Taxodium balticum (Eocene) and Glyptostrobus oregonensis (Miocene). A similar terpenoid pattern is also observed in extant Taxodium distichum. The preservation of characteristic terpenoids (unaltered natural products) in the fossil conifers supports their systematic assignment to the Cypress family (Cupressaceae sensu lato). The results also show that fossil conifers can contain polar terpenoids, which are valuable markers for (paleo)chemosystematics and phylogeny.
Low threshold current transverse junction lasers on semi-insulating substrates by m.b.e. (1980)

Preparation by m.b.e. of GaAs-AlxGa1–xAs transverse junction lasers on semi-insulating substrates is described. Pulsed current thresholds of 32 mA have been achieved at room temperature (25°C) in initial devices. Single-mode c.w. operation has been achieved with heat-sink temperatures up to 35°C.
Selective Permeation of a Liquidlike Self-Assembled Monolayer of 11-Amino-1-undecanethiol on Polycrystalline Gold by Highly Charged Electroactive Probes (2007)

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of 11-amino-1-undecanethiol (AUT) have been prepared on polycrystalline Au by immersion of the corresponding surfaces in an AUT 1 mM solution in pure ethanol. The films were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Results of CV and EIS experiments in NaClO4 solution agree with the fast formation of a well-packed film with low current density (hundreds of nA/cm2) and capacitance values around 2 μF/cm2. The films were stable between −0.7 and 0.7 V (vs Ag/AgCl/NaCl sat.). Average values of 1.6 nm and 26° were obtained for the film thickness and the tilt chain angle in the potential region under study. The kinetic analysis of the adsorption process, monitored in situ by the QCM technique, showed that it occurs in two stages: a fast Langmuir type adsorption step (k1 = 0.1047 min-1), followed by a much slower process of molecular rearrangement (k2 = 0.0020 min-1). AFM operated in tapping mode did not reveal any morphological changes on the surface after immersion in AUT discarding multilayer growth. The electron transfer (ET) of Fe(CN)6-3 and Ru(NH3)6+3 species in solution through the AUT layer was investigated by CV and EIS. A mechanism of selective permeation of the electroactive species across the monolayer, controlled by the nature of the electrostatic interactions established at the SAM-solution interface, explains the experimental data obtained and previously reported in the literature for ET processes through substituted SAMs. Analysis of the film structure according to theoretical models (commonly used for SAM characterization) to our experimental data, led to contradictory results clearly affected by the nature of the unconsidered electrostatic interactions (values of θ = 0.80 and 0.99 were obtained in the presence of Fe(CN)6-3 and Ru(NH3)6+3, respectively, in KCl electrolyte using the Amatore model).
The effect of humidity on the charge/phase-angle patterns of ac corona pulses in air (2003)

AC corona pulses have been measured using a computer-based commercial partial discharge detector. The pulse height distribution was measured in air as a function of phase angle and pulse height for a range of voltages using a point/cup electrode system. An earlier paper discussed the effect of space charge on the onset voltages for both positive and negative half-cycles and on the patterns obtained. In the work reported in this paper, the humidity was varied, and large changes were found in the patterns observed in both half-cycles. At high humidities the negative half-cycle corona largely ceased but a second positive corona onset appeared in the second quarter of the cycle. An explanation for these phenomena is proposed in terms of the effect of the production of negatively charged water molecule clusters. Their production results in a lower effective ionization coefficient and thus higher critical field, and their lower mobility results in a more effective negative space charge. The former reduces the positive space charge in the positive half-cycle thus allowing avalanches and streamers to develop during the second quarter of the cycle. The latter results in a stronger negative space charge during the negative half-cycle which suppresses the corona during that half-cycle.
실험적으로 유도된 진주종 상피의 가역성에 대한 연구 (2003)

Background and Objectives：Epidermal characteristics of cholesteatoma such as invasion, migration, uncoordinated proliferation, and altered differentiation may arise as a result of defective wound healing process, induction of preneoplastic transformation or genetic alteration. To date, a number of genes have been shown to be differentially regulated in cholesteatoma, which might be responsible for these clinical characteristics. However, it is still unclear whether these phenomena is only overt when cholesteatoma is under specific conditions such as inflammation or infection. If these genetic alterations in the development of cholesteatoma are transient, the pathology of cholesteatoma may be reversible. We hypothesized that once cholesteatoma is in the normal environment, the cellular or molecular pathology of cholesteatoma can return to normal epidermal characteristics. The aim of this study was to determine whether common molecular characteristics are reversible or not after removal of inductive factors in aural cholesteatoma induced gerbils. Materials and Method：We induced canal ligation cholesteatoma using Mongolian gerbils. The treated group was untied and managed for 2 weeks. We examined differences between treated cholesteatoma and untreated cholesteatoma by using a TUNEL staining and immunohistochemical technique with proliferation markers (PCNA, cytokeratin 13/16). Results：With PCNA and CK 13/16, untreated group showed positive staining in the suprabasal cells as well as in the basal cells, but the treated group showed weakly positive staining only in the basal cell layer. With TUNEL staining, positive cells increased more in the untreated group than in the treated group. Conclusion：These results encourage our belief that some cholesteatomas, especially cholesteatoma in early stages, might be managed with only minimal treatments such as control of inflammation and maintenance of adequate ventilation
The lattice constant of a nonperfect crystal measured by X-ray diffraction (1993)

Computer simulations of X-ray diffraction 008 Cu Kβ peaks for GaAs crystals with built-in strains are presented. The work was done in order to find out how lattice disorder can influence the peak position used for a lattice-constant evaluation. The simulations were performed using the dynamical theory of X-ray diffraction for multilayered systems. Various models of lattice-constant variation were considered. The results indicate that, for a crystal with microstrains, the peak is shifted towards a lower Bragg angle with respect to its position for a perfect crystal having the same lattice constant. The size of this shift as a function of lattice-constant gradients and their spatial distribution are given. This will help in the analysis of experimental data obtained by X-ray diffractometric measurements on mixed or microstrained crystals.
Dynamic heteroleptic metal-phenanthroline complexes: from structure to function (2014)

Dynamically heteroligated metal centres are auspicious platforms to access multicomponent supramolecular systems, the latter showing unique structures, amazing properties and even emergent functions. The great potential of heteroleptic complexes has materialised after the development of appropriate strategies that warrant quantitative formation in spite of the dynamic character. In this perspective, we discuss our endeavours at developing various heteroleptic self-assembly protocols based on sterically bulky 2,9-diarylphenanthrolines and our work toward self-sorted multicomponent architectures and assemblies with new and useful functions.

Successful Long-term Use of Oral Isotretinoin for the Management of Morbihan Disease (2012)

BACKGROUND Morbihan disease (MD) is characterized by persistent erythema and solid edema of the upper two-thirds of the face. It is generally regarded as a late-stage complication of rosacea, although its etiology is poorly understood. The standard therapeutic management includes systemic anti-inflammatory medications; however, the clinical response, if any, is often unsatisfactory. We review the current challenges and a promising new option for the treatment of MD. OBSERVATIONS Five cases of MD were treated with long-term (>6 months; mean, 16 months) oral isotretinoin, with documented nonrecurrence. The mean sustained daily dose was 60 mg/d (range, 40-80 mg/d), and the mean cumulative dose was approximately 285 mg/kg (range, 170-491 mg/kg). The total treatment period ranged from 10 to 24 months, with a mean disease-free follow-up period of 9 months (range, 1-24 months). A substantial clinical improvement was not noted until 6 months of treatment in all 5 cases. CONCLUSIONS We report 5 cases of MD that were successfully treated with long-term oral isotretinoin, with lasting results. Further research is required to better understand the pathogenesis of MD and isotretinoin's mechanism of action in this condition.

Helper data scheme for 2D cancelable face recognition using bloom filters (2014)

Biometrics provide a source of automated recognition of individuals based on their physiological and behavioral characteristics. As per Directive 95/46/EC, biometric data is considered to be personal data. And according to article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, personal data needs to be privacy preserved. Biometric template protection mechanisms provide a privacy preserved biometric authentication. Such mechanisms assist irreversibility, revocability and unlinkability of biometric templates. Recently, a bloom filter based approach was proposed to generate irreversible iris template. In this paper, a helper data scheme for 2D cancelable face verification using bloom filters is proposed. The positions of most representative features (stable features) are used as helper data, which helps in the face recognition. The features used are extracted using Local Binary Linear Discriminant Analysis. The effect of stable features on recognition performance under scenarios of with and without using bloom filters is investigated. In addition, recognition performance after compressing multiple features into a single bloom filter is presented. The results are experimentally proved on two benchmark databases namely LFW and ORL datasets.
Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition of Horizontally Aligned Carbon Nanotubes (2013)

A plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition reactor has been developed to synthesis horizontally aligned carbon nanotubes. The width of the aligning sheath was modelled based on a collisionless, quasi-neutral, Child's law ion sheath where these estimates were empirically validated by direct Langmuir probe measurements, thereby confirming the proposed reactors ability to extend the existing sheath fields by up to 7 mm. A 7 mbar growth atmosphere combined with a 25 W plasma permitted the concurrent growth and alignment of carbon nanotubes with electric fields of the order of 0.04 V μm<sup>-1</sup> with linear packing densities of up to ~5 × 10⁴ cm<sup>-1</sup>. These results open up the potential for multi-directional <i>in</i><i>situ</i> alignment of carbon nanotubes providing one viable route to the fabrication of many novel optoelectronic devices.
Automated event clustering and quality screening of consumer pictures for digital albuming (2003)

In this paper, algorithms for automatic albuming of consumer photographs are described. Specifically, two core algorithms namely event clustering and screening of low-quality images, are introduced and their performance is evaluated. Event clustering and image quality screening have many applications including albuming services, image management and organization, and digital photofinishing. These are difficult tasks because there is, in general, none (or very limited) contextual information about picture content, and the final interpretation could be subjective. A novel event-clustering algorithm is created to automatically segment pictures into events and subevents for albuming, based on date/time metadata information, as well as color content of the pictures. A block-based color histogram correlation technique is developed for image content comparison of general consumer pictures. A new quality-screening algorithm is developed based on object quality measures, to detect problematic images caused by underexposure, low contrast, and camera defocus or movement.
Influence of cereal seed size on shoot and root length. (1999)

During the years 1996 and 1997, researches on the influence of winter wheat, spring barley and spring oats seed size on shoot and root length were carried out in the laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture in Osijek (Croatia). During the research on four calibrations (three seed fractions as follows: 2,8; 2,5 and 2,2 mm of diameter and unsieved seed being used as a control), it was found that large seeds had the longest shoot, whereas small seeds resulted in the shortest shoot. According two years average, the seed fractions of 2,8 mm have the highest values of shoot length by all cereals as follows: winter wheat 71,4 mm, spring barley 92,1 mm and spring oat 82,9 mm. Also, the lowest values of shoot length were attained with small seed (seed fractions of 2,2 mm) by all tested cereals: winter wheat 48,3 mm, spring barley 48,1 mm and spring oat 64,0 mm. The found differences in shoot length between seed fractions with all cereals are statistically high significant (P<0,01).
Similar results were also achieved with the seed size influence on root length. The largest seeds had the highest values of root length, also the smallest one had the shortest root, with all tested cereals. According to two year average, the seed fractions of 2,8 mm have the highest values of root length as follows: winter wheat 131,9 mm, spring barley 182,2 mm and spring oat 97,4 mm. Also, the lowest values of root length were attained with small seed (seed fractions of 2,2 mm): winter wheat 102,6 mm, spring barley 120,7 mm and spring oat 79,4 mm. The found differences in root length between seed fractions by all cereals are statistically high significant (P<0,01).
Clock layout for high-performance ASIC based on weighted center algorithm (2002)

A new clock distribution scheme is investigated using weighted center algorithm. The algorithm is based on optimum matching of the closest clock terminals and recursively building a clock tree which connects all the clock terminals. The novel feature of the authors' approach is simultaneous minimizing of the clock skew and the total clock tree wire length, and suitable for any design style. Experimental results on the MCNC industrial benchmarks show that this approach is practical and promising.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
