Person Re-identification and Intelligent Crowdsourcing with Applications in Public Safety (2017)

Video surveillance systems are of a great value for public safety. They are used as an effective tool for crime prevention and as an "after the fact" forensic tool. Many automatic methods have been proposed for video analytics such as anomaly detection and human activity recognition. Such methods have significant challenges due to object occlusions, shadows, various scales, and changes in viewpoints and illumination conditions. In addition, mobile or networked environments have limited bandwidths and adaptive data-rate streaming is frequently used. Video compression can introduce significant quality degradation that impacts the accuracy of video analytics. In this thesis, we propose a two-stage quality-adaptive convolutional neural network system for pedestrian detection to address the problem of a changing video data-rate. We also present a person re-identification method based on the use of a patch-based dynamic appearance model. Person re-identification is of interest to public safety as it helps law enforcement identify persons of interest when they re-appear in the surveillance system. We use deformable graph matching for person re-identification using histograms of color and texture as features of nodes. The method is evaluated using a dataset that was collected at the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority. For forensic analysis of surveillance video, we describe an intelligent crowdsourcing system to utilize human intelligence and perform tasks that machines find difficult. We enhance crowdsourcing by incorporating computer vision methods and propose a hierarchical pyramid model to distinguish the crowd members based on their ability, experience and performance record.

Analysis of photoresist edge bead removal using laser light and gas (2010)

Wafer edge defects are currently considered a major problem as they negatively impact device yields in integrated circuit manufacturing, especially in immersion lithography. A primary source of edge defects is from particles of photoresist originating from the edge bead of resist caused by spin coating. In this paper, photoresist edge bead removal (EBR) is studied in a series of experiments using a laser and gas cleaning system. One goal of the experiments was to reduce the edge exclusion by gradually reducing the area cleaned by the laser and gas system. Reduction of EBR width will increase die yield. A number of varying exposure algorithms were tested, and are described along with microscope and SEM photos of the resulting edge geometry and surface condition. Another goal of these experiments is time-efficient removal of thick edge beads, a problem for conventional expose/develop methods. A matrix of varying laser parameters and gas types was run to produce a best-known-method (BKM) to meet these goals.
User evaluation outside the lab: the trial of Físchlár-News (2005)

A user study of Físchlár-News system was conducted in Spring 2004 with 16 users, each user using the system for a 1-month period. Físchlár-News is an experimental online news archive that incorporates various automatic content-based video indexing techniques and a news story recommender algorithm to process and index the daily 9 o’clock broadcast news from TV and allows its users to browse, search, be recommended, and play news stories on a conventional web browser. Pre and post-trial questionnaires, interaction logging and incident diary methods collected both qualitative and quantitative usage data during the trial period. While the details of the findings from this evaluation is reported elsewhere, in this paper we report the details of the methodology taken and our experience of conducting this evaluation.
Different Lines of Rats Selectively-Bred for High Alcohol-Drinking Demonstrate Disparate Preferences for Nicotine Self-Administration (2016)

Background.Alcohol and nicotine are commonly coabused.The search for a common core of neural, behavioral, and genetic factors underlying addiction has been the goal of addiction research.Purpose.Genetic predisposition to high alcohol intake has been studied in rats by selectively breeding rats that have high preference for alcohol.The current experiments were conducted to determine if the level of intravenous nicotine administration for the various lines of alcohol-preferring rats differs from that for nonalcohol-preferring controls.Study design.Adult alcohol-naïve selectively-bred alcohol-preferring male rats from four lines (P, AA, HAD-1, sP) and their control nonalcohol-preferring rats (NP, ANA, LAD-1, sNP) were trained and given access to self-administer nicotine (0.03 mg/kg/infusion).Results.The results show that the P rats selfadministered significantly more nicotine than NP rats.In contrast, there were no significant differences in nicotine self-administration between the sP and sNP or the AA and ANA rats.Unexpectedly, high alcohol-drinking HAD-1 rats self-administered significantly less nicotine than low alcohol-drinking LAD-1 rats.Conclusion.This suggests that some genetic factors that underlie high-alcohol intake have more general effects in promoting high nicotine intake tendencies, while other genetic factors are more specific to only heavy drinking.

Effect of B<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Fluxing on Glass-Forming Ability and Soft Magnetic Properties of Fe(-Co)-B-Si-Nb Bulk Metallic Glasses (2014)

The effect of B 2 O 3 fluxing on the glass-forming ability (GFA), the structure and the soft magnetic properties of Fe (-Co)-B-Si-Nb bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) has been investigated. The large Fe-Co-B-Si-Nb BMG specimens with diameters up to 7.7 mm, which is approximately 1.5 times as large as that of the maximum diameter of the copper mold cast one (= 5 mm), were prepared by the fluxing and water quenching. Thus the GFA of the Fe-Co-B-Si-Nb BMG are improved by the fluxing. It was confirmed that the soft magnetic properties of the Fe-Co-B-Si-Nb BMG are also improved by the fluxing. On the other hand, it was found for the Co-free Fe-B-Si-Nb BMG that the B 2 O 3 fluxing promotes the precipitation of the α-Fe (-Si) and Fe 2 B phases in the central region of the specimens; i.e., the GFA of the Fe-B-Si-Nb BMG is decreased by the fluxing. The Fe-B-Si-Nb BMG specimens show a flat hysteresis loop, indicating a good linear relationship between the magnetic induction and the applied magnetic field. These results of the Fe-B-Si-Nb BMG show that it is possible to develop a new soft magnetic material that exhibits constant permeability, which is necessary for producing inductors and choke coils.
Issues Surrounding the Assessment of the Genetic Determinants of Drugs as Reinforcing Stimuli (1991)

A wide variety of drugs used in medicine and on a non-prescription basis have abuse liability. However, not all psychoactive drugs have demonstrable reinforcing properties either in animal models or in humans. In order to predict the abuse liability of a compound or to understand determinants of the abuse liability, several animal testing procedures have been developed. These procedures include tests for physical dependence, tolerance, disruption of ongoing behaviors, discriminative stimulus properties, and the direct or indirect assessment of the reinforcement. While tests for the production of tolerance and physical dependence may not predict abuse liability, they would significantly modify the abuse risk. This paper will focus on the methods available for the assessment of the reinforcing properties and the advantages of using genetically defined mice to better understand the determinants of the reinforcing properties and to isolate phenotypes that are hyper-responsive and hypo-responsive to the reinforcing properties of drugs under study. Examples of genetically determined differences are provided and areas of inadequate information are discussed.
S-Adenosylhomocysteine Hydrolase (1986)

S-Adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (AdoHcyase; EC 3.3.1.1) catalyzes the overall reaction first described by de la Haba and Cantoni (1957):AdoHcy + H20 ⇌ Ado + HcyThe equilibrium of the reaction favors synthesis with a Keq of about 10−6 M. While the enzyme was being crystallized by Richards et al. (1978), Palmer and Abeles (1979) demonstrated that it contains NAD and proposed a catalytic mechanism based on the oxidation and reduction of the enzyme-bound NAD. Richards et al. (1978) first showed that the enzyme exists as a tetramer, but in contrast, the plant AdoHcyase is dimeric (Guranowski and Pawełkiewicz, 1977) while the bacterial enzyme is hexameric (Shimizu et al., 1984). In general, the native molecular weight of the mammalian enzyme is between 180,000 and 200,000.

SMN in spinal muscular atrophy and snRNP biogenesis (2011)

Abstract Ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes function in nearly every facet of cellular activity. The spliceosome is an essential RNP that accurately identifies introns and catalytically removes the intervening sequences, providing exquisite control of spatial, temporal, and developmental gene expressions. U‐snRNPs are the building blocks for the spliceosome. A significant amount of insight into the molecular assembly of these essential particles has recently come from a seemingly unexpected area of research: neurodegeneration. Survival motor neuron (SMN) performs an essential role in the maturation of snRNPs, while the homozygous loss of SMN1 results in the development of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a devastating neurodegenerative disease. In this review, the function of SMN is examined within the context of snRNP biogenesis and evidence is examined which suggests that the SMN functional defects in snRNP biogenesis may account for the motor neuron pathology observed in SMA.

Quality Measurements of Carnation Treatment Solutions in Relation to Flower Silver Distribution and Longevity (1985)

Abstract Various silver containing solutions were evaluated for their effectiveness in extending the life of cut carnations ( Dianthus caryophyllus , L. ‘Improved White Sim’) by simple chemical tests of the solutions. Effective solutions formed an immediate white or yellow precipitate (AgI) when 3.0 ml of the solution reacted with 0.15 ml of 2.0 m KI solution, whereas no precipitate formed when reacted with 0.15 ml of 2.0 m NaCI solution. When no precipitate formed with KI, there was insufficient silver in the solution to extend flower life, and hence, no silver was detected in a combined stem and leaf sample or in the flower head (consisting of receptacle, pistil, bracts, calyx and petals). A precipitate forming with both KI and NaCI indicated that the solution contained silver but in the wrong formulation to extend life. Flowers treated with this solution had silver in the combined stems and leaves, but practically none in heads. When solutions were effective, more silver was detected in heads than in the stems and leaves combined.
High efficiency InAlN-based solar cells (2008)

The band gap energies of the In <inf xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1−x</inf> Al <inf xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">x</inf> N alloys are continuously tunable across the solar spectrum, making them good candidates for high efficiency solar cells. In particular, multijunction solar cells could be fabricated entirely from different compositions of this one alloy system. From modeling experimental measurements of the optical absorption coefficient in alloys with 0 ≤ × ≤ 0.6, a band gap bowing parameter of 4.8 ± 0.5 eV is found for the alloy system. With this number, the alloy compositions for two and three junction tandem cells with maximum theoretical power conversion efficiencies can be determined. Two junction InAlN / Si solar cells are also promising structures for high efficiency solar cells, due to the properties of the interface between n-type InAlN and p-type Si, as well as the band gaps of the respective materials.

PASSENGER-ONLY FERRY SERVICE BETWEEN VASHON ISLAND AND SEATTLE, WASHINGTON (1993)

On April 23, 1990, passenger-only ferryboat service was offered as an alternative to automobile ferry users commuting between the Seattle/Tacoma mainland and Vashon Island. The consequences of introducing this regularly scheduled passenger-only ferry service on Puget Sound are discussed. The results are being used by the Washington State Ferry System Planning Office to assist in decisions for expanding passenger ferry service in the future. Results of a survey of passenger-only and automobile ferry service riders were used to fit a logit model for predicting future mode shift. Since the survey data were attitudinal, the logit model was intended to identify the target populations most likely to shift mode from automobile ferry to passenger-only ferry service. The attributes of the ferry system that are most important in selecting between the two modes of transportation were investigated. The results indicate that providing passenger ferry service can cause a mode shift from drive-on automobile ferry passengers to walk-on passengers. For the passenger ferry service studied, 11.7% of the passenger ferry users were former single-occupant vehicle (SOV) drivers. Since the new passenger ferry carried 10.7% of the total afternoon ferry rides, this meant that a mode shift of nearly 2% of SOV drivers to walk-on passengers was realized after 1 year of passenger ferry service between Vashon Island and Seattle. The degree of mode shift depended on the ferry routes and location of the ferry terminals. Travel time was a significant factor in the choice between passenger ferry and automobile ferry service. The results indicated a significant number of new riders (25%). Some people moved to Vashon Island because passenger service was made available. It was concluded that the passenger ferry contributes to the regional goal of reducing reliance on the automobile.
Reel Installation of 15” Clad Steel Pipeline With Direct Electrical Heating and In-Line T (2006)

The Norne Satellite project in the Norwegian Sea involved installation of a 9 km long 15” thermally insulated clad steel production pipeline. The pipeline is equipped with Direct Electrical Heating for hydrate control and an in-line T for connection of a mid-line reservoir. The installation was performed in 2005 with the reel ship “CSO Apache” after completion of comprehensive qualification programs. The Norne Satellite project represents a step forward in sub-sea pipeline technology, with the following main firsts: • Reeling of clad steel pipeline. • Direct Electrical Heating of clad steel pipeline. • Direct Electrical Heating of pipeline with in-line T. • AUT of clad steel girth welds. This paper presents experiences from the qualification and installation works.
Minimization of thermodynamic costs in cancer cell invasion (2013)

Metastasis, the truly lethal aspect of cancer, occurs when metastatic cancer cells in a tumor break through the basement membrane and penetrate the extracellular matrix. We show that MDA-MB-231 metastatic breast cancer cells cooperatively invade a 3D collagen matrix while following a glucose gradient. The invasion front of the cells is a dynamic one, with different cells assuming the lead on a time scale of 70 h. The front cell leadership is dynamic presumably because of metabolic costs associated with a long-range strain field that precedes the invading cell front, which we have imaged using confocal imaging and marker beads imbedded in the collagen matrix. We suggest this could be a quantitative assay for an invasive phenotype tracking a glucose gradient and show that the invading cells act in a cooperative manner by exchanging leaders in the invading front.
Development of a Ceramic Surface Replacement for the Hip an Experimental Sialon Model (1979)

The objective of this study was to investigate the design and fixation advantages of Sialon ceramic surface replacements implanted without acrylic bone cement. The biocompatibility and friction and wear properties of Sialon ceramic were compared with more conventional prosthetic materials such as stainless steel and alumina. A functional load-bearing canine hip surface replacement model was established to test Sialon femoral cups designed for fixation by bone ingrowth. The results of the polyethylene wear tests on highly polished ceramic and stainless steel counterfaces were essentially similar. These laboratory data indicated that the in-vivo polyethylene wear performance on metal or ceramic prosthetic surfaces could be expected to be indistinguishable, i.e. the ceramic/polyethylene combination would not offer any improved wear resistance in-vivo. It was found possible to get bone ingrowth into the macrokeying areas of the ceramic femoral cups but not into the microporous surfaces due to the presence of a fibrous membrane lining their internal surfaces. The biocompatability specimens also appeared to be invested with a fibrous membrane. Further studies are under way to determine the relationship between reaming procedures, micro motion at the interfaces and Sialon biocompatibility.

Two Novel Proteins That Are Linked to Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF-I) Receptors by the Grb10 Adapter and Modulate IGF-I Signaling (2003)

Grb10 is a protein that binds to the intracellular domains of activated tyrosine kinase receptors, including insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) and insulin receptors. This occurs through the interaction of two C-terminal Grb10 motifs (BPS and Src homology domains) with receptor phosphotyrosine residues. Published data from transfection/overexpression studies support both positive and negative regulatory effects of Grb10, thus leaving its physiological role unclear. Because Grb10 has the structure of an adapter protein, the objective of this study was to determine whether Grb10 links other proteins to IGF-I receptors and thus modulates IGF-I signaling. Using yeast two-hybrid screening, the N terminus of Grb10 was shown to interact with two novel proteins, designated GIGYF1 (Grb10 interacting GYF protein 1) and GIGYF2. Mutation analysis indicates that a 17-amino acid sequence in GIGYF1 and GIGYF2, homologous to the GYF domain described previously, binds to tandem proline-rich regions in the N terminus of Grb10. In IGF-I receptor-expressing R+ fibroblasts, there is detectable binding of a Myc-tagged fragment of GIGYF1 to Grb10 in the basal state. Stimulation with IGF-I results in increased binding of GIGYF1 to Grb10 and transient binding of both Grb10 and GIGYF1 to IGF-I receptors, presumably via the adapter function of Grb10. At later time points, GIGYF1 dissociates, but Grb10 remains linked to IGF-I receptors. Overexpression of the Grb10 binding fragment of GIGYF1 in R+ cells results in a significant increase in IGF-I-stimulated receptor tyrosine phosphorylation. In conclusion, we have identified two members of a novel protein family, which become transiently linked to IGF-I receptors by the Grb10 adapter protein following IGF-I stimulation. Grb10 and GIGYFs may act cooperatively to regulate receptor signaling.
