Pattern recognition of multiple EMG signals applied to the description of human gait (1977)

The application of pattern recognition to the classification of normal and four pathological gaits is described. The classification is based on construction of a pattern feature vector whose elements are obtained by processing EMG signals obtained from 6 muscles responsible for movement of the foot at the ankle. The paper describes the basic actions of these muscles and the resulting gait patterns. Data were obtained from 30 patients at Rancho Los Amigos Hospital. 11 sets of data were used as training patterns for the synthesis of linear dicriminant functions needed in the classification algorithm. The resulting algorithm was used to proces 19 patient records. The correct gait was identified in 15 of these 19 sets. Potential clinical applications of the results are discussed.
Probabilistic Models for the Semantic Web (2010)

Recently, there has been an increasing interest in formalisms for representing uncertain information on the Semantic Web. This interest is triggered by the observation that knowledge on the web is not always crisp and we have to be able to deal with incomplete, inconsistent and vague information. The treatment of this kind of information requires new approaches for knowledge representation and reasoning on the web as existing Semantic Web languages are based on classical logic which is known to be inadequate for representing uncertainty in many cases. While different general approaches for extending Semantic Web languages with the ability to represent uncertainty are explored, we focus our attention on probabilistic approaches. We survey existing proposals for extending semantic web languages or formalisms underlying Semantic Web languages in terms of their expressive power, reasoning capabilities as well as their suitability for supporting typical tasks associated with the Semantic Web.

Environment for I/O Performance Measurement of Distributed and Local Secondary Storage (2005)

Whilst the performance gap between main memory and secondary storage of computer systems increased rapidly during the last years, especially the analysis of secondary storage performance becomes very important. For that purpose this paper introduces a plugin-based framework providing an integrated execution environment for new benchmarks and offering analysis tools for the complex result output of particularly I/O measurements. As an example of this environment we describe the PRIOmark, an I/O benchmark that characterizes file system performance of single and distributed systems by means of two different file system interfaces. Additionally, the I/O performance of three file systems, two file system interfaces as well as different I/O workloads are compared to show the flexibility of the presented PRIOmark.
The development of a high-voltage power device evaluation platform (2014)

This paper presents the development of a high voltage evaluation platform to investigate both the static and switching characteristics of silicon (Si) and silicon carbide (SiC) based high voltage (HV) power devices. The test methodologies, design, implementations, and safety guidelines for the HV device evaluation are elaborated. A 15 kV rated double pulse tester is built to study the dynamic behaviors of HV power devices. The gate drive circuit and main circuit are designed to achieve clean waveforms and safe operation. Meanwhile, a high voltage high frequency load inductor is designed with finite element analysis (FEA) tools, taking into consideration the non-uniform voltage distribution on the windings under sharp voltage impulse. Both the design details and test results are presented.
Lossless compression of hyperspectral imagery via lookup tables with predictor selection (2006)

We propose a new low-complexity algorithm for lossless compression of hyperspectral imagery using lookup tables along with a predictor selection mechanism. We first compute a locally averaged interband scaling (LAIS) factor for an estimate of the current pixel from the co-located one in the previous band. We then search via lookup tables in the previous band for the two nearest causal pixels that are identical to the pixel co-located to the current pixel. The pixels in the current band co-located to the causal pixels are used as two potential predictors. One of the two predictors that is closest to the LAIS estimate is chosen as the predictor for the current pixel. The method pushes lossless compression of the AVIRIS hyperspectral imagery to a new high with an average compression ratio of 3.47.
Impedance measurement of a fuel cell on load (2007)

The improvement of the effectiveness and the life time of fuel cells requires the optimization of components such as membranes and electrodes and enhancement the flow of gases. To this end, the impedance measurement is essential. In this paper we present an electronic measurement instrumentation developed in our laboratory, to measure and plot the impedance of the fuel cell on load. Impedance measurements were taken by using the load modulation method. This instrumentation has been developed around a VXI system stand which controls electronic cards. Software under HPVEE <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">reg</sub> was developed for automatic measurements and layout. The theoretical result obtained by a simulation under PSPICE <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">reg</sub> consolidates us in the possibility of obtaining correct and exploitable results. The experimental results are preliminary results on a 12 V vehicle battery (Impedance measurements on a PEMFC are in progress). The similitude in the graph form and in order of magnitude of the values obtained (both theoretical and practical) enables us to validate our instrumentation. One of the future uses for this instrumentation is to integrate it on a vehicle as an embedded system to monitor the degradation of fuel cell membranes.
PUQFUA, an IBM 704 Code for Computing Plutonium Body Burdens (1962)

PUQFUA is an IBM 704 Fortran program, written primarily for Pu239, which calculates from urinalyses the plutonium body burden in microcuries and the percentage of the maximum permissible body burden. It is based on a set of power-function elimination equations developed by WRIGHT H. LANGHAM for the excretion of plutonium over a five-year period. Results with PUQFUA compare favorably with those of other methods. In general, it is easy to apply for a large number of individual samples, and the validation method is objective and requires no past experience with plutonium body-burden calculations on the part of the evaluator.
Driver behaviour data linked with vehicle, weather, road surface, and daylight data (2016)

In this data set, vehicle observations have been linked to data containing weather and road surface conditions. A total of 311 908 observations are collected and classified in categories of precipitation type, road status information, and daylight condition. The data is collected for a long period of time, so that several different weather situations are present, ranging from dry summer to adverse winter weather conditions.
Switchable and Tunable Microwave Photonic Brillouin-Based Filter (2012)

A new structure that realizes a switchable microwave photonic filter, which can be readily switched between a bandpass filter and a notch filter, is presented. It is based on optical processing the sidebands of the RF-modulated signal that is obtained after a dual-drive Mach–Zehnder modulator (DDMZM), using stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) effects. Switching of the filter function is simply and conveniently obtained by changing the dc bias to the DDMZM. In addition, the center frequency of the switchable filter can be tuned over a wide frequency range. A detailed analysis and simulation of the DDMZM operation in conjunction with the SBS technique is presented in order to obtain the required optimum bias conditions for the DDMZM for realizing the switching action between the single-bandpass filter and the notch filter and also to select the optimum pump power for the SBS operation. Experimental results demonstrate the ability of this structure to switch between a high-resolution bandpass filter and a high-resolution notch filter, with Q values around 400–500, and the ability to operate over a frequency range of 2–20 GHz.
Use of analgesics and risk of renal cell cancer (1994)

Although heavy or long-term use of analgesics has been related to risk of renal cell cancer in several studies, evidence for such an association remains inconclusive. In a population-based case-control study including 440 renal cell cancer cases, spouses of an additional 151 cases, and 691 controls, we assessed renal cell cancer risk associated with lifetime consumption among those who reported during in-person interviews regular (at least 2 or more times per week for 1 month or longer) use of analgesics. Odds ratios (OR) were computed using logistic regression analyses. No excess risk was associated with regular use of aspirin, acetaminophen, phenacetin or combinations of these agents, nor did risks rise with increasing cumulative intake of these analgesics. A non-significant increased risk (OR = 2.1, 95% CI = 0.6-6.9) was observed among women who used only acetaminophen-containing analgesics, but little excess was seen in men. Earlier studies reported a link to phenacetin-containing analgesics, but no one reported exclusive use of phenacetin-containing drugs in our study. The findings suggest that use of analgesics is not likely to play a major role in renal cell cancer development and that for cases diagnosed in the late 1980s or later, after the earlier withdrawal of phenacetin-containing drugs from the market, a hazard from this analgesic no longer exists.
A new mechanism for accelerating electrons in the outer ionosphere (1960)

We propose here to study the phenomena of high-energy trapped particles in the earth's outer ionosphere using a new mechanism for particle acceleration. The phenomenon of gyroresonance would be employed to accelerate electrons in the earth's outer ionosphere with circularly polarized VLF electromagnetic waves generated on the ground. According to the theory of whistling atmospherics [Storey, 1953], the ionosphere can propagate a circularly polarized plane electromagnetic wave whose frequency is less than that of the plasma and gyrofrequencies. Large reductions in the phase and group velocities take place, and the ray paths tend to follow the earth's magnetic field.
Optimized conditions for growth and fermentation of Helicobacter pylori. (1998)

This study attempted to optimize the growth conditions of Helicobacter pylori by comparing the growth of H. pylori in an anaerobic jar and an incubator. It was found that the primary isolation rate of H. pylori from gastric biopsies was higher in an anaerobic incubator (28/30) than in an anaerobic jar (21/30). In addition, growth rate in the subsequent passage was also higher in an incubator. By comparing different supplements in the liquid media, it was found that most strains grew best in Brucella broth containing 5% fetal calf serum, and some strains grew well with the supplement of 0.2% of beta-cyclodextrin. A large scale culture using a bioreactor indicated that a defoaming agent, polypropylenglycol, profoundly inhibited the growth of H. pylori. However, fermentation could be successfully performed by continuously infusing mixed airs composed of 5% O2, 10% CO2 and 85% N2. Moreover, the production of secreted proteins of H. pylori strains grown in the bioreactor was the same as that in an anaerobic jar. Results presented herein can be used to further optimize conditions for enhancing the growth of H. pylori.

Novel DO-OTA based current-mode grounded capacitor multiplier (2018)

New DO-OTA based grounded capacitor multiplier circuit is proposed. The proposed capacitance multiplier is a current-mode circuit, where in DO-OTA based current copier circuit is used to sense the input current and scale it by a factor k such that a scaled version of input current flows through the grounded capacitor (I <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">c</sub> = I <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">in</sub> /k). The capacitor multiplier circuit is verified using TINA SPICE simulator.

Common Fixed Points for Different Variants of R-Weak Commutativity Mappings in Fuzzy Metric Spaces (2009)

In this paper, common fixed point theorems for different variants of R-weak commutative mappings in fuzzy metric spaces have been established and these maps do not force the map to be continuous at the fixed point.
Microstructural Characteristics and Wear Performance of Plasma Sprayed Al2O3 -13 wt. % TiO2 Coating on the Surface of Extrusion Wheel (2013)

The conventional Al2O3-13 wt. % TiO2composite ceramic coatings are fabricated by plasma spraying on the surface of extrusion wheel. The microstructure,morphology and phase compositions of the substrate and coating are investigated by using X-ray diffractometry( XRD),scanning electron microsopy( SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy( EDS). Moreover,the microhardness of the substrate and the coating are investigated using Vickers microhardness tester,the friction and wear behaviors of the substrate and the coating are investigated by using a block-on-ring tribometer under dry sliding conditions with the load of 245 N. The results show that bothγ-Al2O3and α-Al2O3phases are observed in the as-sprayed coatings,the mian phase is γ-Al2O3. There are white particulates Al2O3on its surface. The Al2O3-13 wt. % TiO2coating possesses higher microhardness which is about1018HV and 1. 6 times that of the substrate. The wear performance of coating is better than that of the substrate.In a practical application,the life of the extrusion wheel which is plasma sprayed Al2O3-13 wt. % TiO2coating on the surface is 1. 2 times that of the conventional extrusion wheel,and the life is about 330 h.
Formation of Dityrosine Cross-Links during Breadmaking (2006)

To establish its significance during commercial breadmaking, dityrosine formation was quantified in flours and doughs of six commercial wheat types at various stages of the Chorleywood Bread Process. Dityrosine was formed mainly during mixing and baking, at the levels of nmol/g dry weight. Good breadmaking flours tended to exhibit a higher dityrosine content in the final bread than low quality ones, but no relationship was found for dityrosine as a proportion of flour protein content, indicating that the latter was still a dominant factor in the analysis. There was no correlation between gluten yield of the six wheat types and their typical dityrosine concentrations, suggesting that dityrosine cross-links were not a determinant factor for gluten formation. Ascorbic acid was found to inhibit dityrosine formation during mixing and proving, and it has no significant effect on dityrosine in the final bread. Hydrogen peroxide promoted dityrosine formation, which suggests that a radical mechanism involving endogenous peroxidases might be responsible for dityrosine formation during breadmaking.

초보 학습자에게 있어서 문화교육의 필요성 (2004)

外國語を學習する際、まず言語構造を學び、それに基づいて意思疏通能力を養っていくという習得過程をたどる。ところで、言語敎育には、文化敎育も必要である。文化というものは、言語構造の習得よりも意思疏通能力と關係が深いと言える。そうであるならば、はたして初級過程の外國語敎育でも文化敎育が必要であるかを檢討することが本槁の目的である。 高校の日本語敎育では、まず意思疏通能力を養うことが主な目的である。しかし、言語學習の先行硏究では言語構造を習得した後、意思疏通能力を養うべきであると一般的に言われている。言語構造を身につけるためには、文法の知識は不可欠であり、意思疏通能力を習うためには、意思疏通機能と文化的な要素を知る必要がある。 そこで、まず、何を習うべきかが問題である。外國語習得の順序によって言語構造を習い、意思疏通能力を養うべきである。言語の習慣化を理由に言語構造と意思疏通能力を同時に養うべきであるという主張もある。しかし、最近の敎授法では習慣化も修正可能であるので、習慣化を怖がるべきではないか、という考え方もあり、學習者に初期段階から意思疏通ができるまで基本的な言語形態を敎えるべきであると言われている。そのためには言語構造と關連のある文法敎育が先行されるべきである。 言語敎育で取り扱う文化敎育內容は、目的によって違ってくる。目標言語圈の文化を指導することが目的であるならば、異文化間の差から生じる不必要な誤解を解消できる知識などを文化敎育の內容にすべきである。最近の高校の日本語敎科書には、「日本槪觀、日本人の日常生活、傳統文化、大衆文化」などの社會現象全般について收めてある。 文化敎育の指導方法は、先行硏究では、大體①視聽覺資料の利用、②主題討論、③演劇、④ネ-テイウスピ-カ-招請講演、⑤文化的な差異からくる誤解の發事例發表會をおげている。その中で、視聽覺資料の利用ぐらいは、初級學習者が利用できると思うが、それ以外の方法は、日本語をある程度使いこなせる學習者が利用できる方法である。
Clinical Use of Viable Frozen Human Skin (1965)

After a method for the successful freezing and storing of viable skin was developed in the laboratory, it was applied to human skin grafts. Split-thickness skin was prepared by soaking in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and frozen in dry ice. It was then stored at liquid nitrogen temperatures (—196 C) for periods up to 608 days. The grafts were used in various clinical situations. The success of the grafts was directly related to the status of the recipient bed and showed no relation to the time of storage. The grafts have been used in 26 cases as autografts and 12 cases as homografts.

Echo‐volumar imaging (EVI) at 0.5 T: First whole‐body volunteer studies (1996)

Improvements in the echo-volumar imaging (EVI) technique and its application in whole-body studies are described. Using an in-house built 0.5 T echo-planar imaging system, complete modulus three-dimensional image data are acquired in 102 ms with real-time display. Hardware limitations have restricted the maximum array size achievable to 64 x 32 x 8 voxels. Representative voxel dimensions are x = 6.0 mm; y = 4.0 mm, and z = 10.0 mm. Results on human volunteers are presented, showing cardiac, liver, and bladder images. Also shown are the first EVI gastric filling and emptying results.
Mining StackOverflow to turn the IDE into a self-confident programming prompter (2014)

Developers often require knowledge beyond the one they possess, which often boils down to consulting sources of information like Application Programming Interfaces (API) documentation, forums, Q&A websites, etc. Knowing what to search for and how is non- trivial, and developers spend time and energy to formulate their problems as queries and to peruse and process the results. We propose a novel approach that, given a context in the IDE, automatically retrieves pertinent discussions from Stack Overflow, evaluates their relevance, and, if a given confidence threshold is surpassed, notifies the developer about the available help. We have implemented our approach in Prompter, an Eclipse plug-in. Prompter has been evaluated through two studies. The first was aimed at evaluating the devised ranking model, while the second was conducted to evaluate the usefulness of Prompter.
Multiple <i>GAL</i> pathway gene clusters evolved independently and by different mechanisms in fungi (2010)

A notable characteristic of fungal genomes is that genes involved in successive steps of a metabolic pathway are often physically linked or clustered. To investigate how such clusters of functionally related genes are assembled and maintained, we examined the evolution of gene sequences and order in the galactose utilization (GAL) pathway in whole-genome data from 80 diverse fungi. We found that GAL gene clusters originated independently and by different mechanisms in three unrelated yeast lineages. Specifically, the GAL cluster found in Saccharomyces and Candida yeasts originated through the relocation of native unclustered genes, whereas the GAL cluster of Schizosaccharomyces yeasts was acquired through horizontal gene transfer from a Candida yeast. In contrast, the GAL cluster of Cryptococcus yeasts was assembled independently from the Saccharomyces/Candida and Schizosaccharomyces GAL clusters and coexists in the Cryptococcus genome with unclustered GAL paralogs. These independently evolved GAL clusters represent a striking example of analogy at the genomic level. We also found that species with GAL clusters exhibited significantly higher rates of GAL pathway loss than species with unclustered GAL genes. These results suggest that clustering of metabolic genes might facilitate fungal adaptation to changing environments both through the acquisition and loss of metabolic capacities.
Functionalisation of unsaturated amides: synthesis of chiral α- or β-hydroxy acids (1990)

Mercury cyclisation of hemiamidals containing a stereogenic centre affords diastereoisomeric mixtures of tetrahydro-1,3-oxazin-4-ones or oxazolidin-4-ones, which are easily separated by silica gel chromatography and hydrolysed to give chiral α- and β-hydroxy acids.
Properties and Partial Purification of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate Synthase (1983)

We studied the regulation of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) synthase activity in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) fruit tissue and attempted the purification of this enzyme. The increase of ACC synthase activity in wounded tomato pericarp was inhibited by cordycepin and cycloheximide. Density labeling studies showed a 0.75% increase in the buoyant density of ACC synthase isolated from tomato pericarp tissue that had been incubated on (2)H(2)O as compared to ACC synthase from H(2)O-treated tissue. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that ACC synthase is synthesized de novo following wounding of tomato pericarp tissue. SDS-gel electrophoresis and fluorography showed that the pattern of incorporation of l-[(35)S]methionine into protein changed with time after wounding of the tissue. Radioactive protein bands that were not detected 1 hour after wounding, became apparent 2 to 3 hours after wounding.Gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 gave a molecular weight estimate for ACC synthase of 57,000 +/- 1,500 daltons. Hydrophobic interaction chromatography on phenyl-Sepharose yielded a 60- to 70-fold purification of the enzyme. SDS-gel electrophoresis of this preparation indicated the presence of one intense band at 57,000 daltons and several less intense bands. Affinity chromatography was of limited usefulness in the purification of ACC synthase since the enzyme could not be eluted specifically from any of the affinity gels tried. Purification methods that involved pH changes led to a rapid loss of ACC synthase activity. ACC synthase was estimated to comprise less than 1% of the total protein in tomato pericarp tissue.
