Assessment of end-user response to sports highlights extraction for personal video recorders (2007)

We tested our previously reported sports highlights playback for personal video recorders with a carefully chosen set of sports aficionados. Each subject spent about an hour with the content, going through the same basic steps of introduction, trying out the system, and follow up questionnaire. The main conclusion was that the users unanimously liked the functionality very much even when it made mistakes. Furthermore, the users felt that if the user interface were made much more responsive so as to quickly compensate for false alarms and misses, the functionality would be vastly enhanced. The ability to choose summaries of any desired length turned out to be the main attraction.
Searching for Practically Useful P‐Chirogenic Phosphine Ligands (2016)

In this account, the design, synthesis, and application of P-chirogenic phosphine ligands that have been mainly carried out in our laboratory over the last three decades are described. Various enantiopure P-chirogenic phosphine ligands have been efficiently prepared by using phosphine boranes as intermediates. Conformationally rigid and electron-rich P-chirogenic phosphine ligands possessing C<sub>2</sub> symmetry as well as a bulky alkyl group and a small group at the phosphorus atoms exhibit excellent enantioselectivities and catalytic efficiency in a variety of transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric reactions. Enantiopure 2,3-bis(tert-butylmethylphosphino)quinoxaline (QuinoxP*) is an air-stable crystalline solid that shows superior enantioinduction ability in catalytic asymmetric syntheses. Mechanistic studies of Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation using structurally simple P-chirogenic phosphine ligands, such as tBu-BisP*, are briefly described.
Nonlinear Analysis of Stability and Rotational Accuracy of an Unbalanced Rotor Supported by Aerostatic Journal Bearings (2021)

This paper presents the nonlinear analysis of stability and dynamic rotational accuracy of an unbalanced rotor supported by aerostatic journal bearings. A finite element method is utilized with the Runge-Kutta fourth order method to solve the transient Reynolds equation and the rotor dynamics equations simultaneously for the dynamic response analysis of the rotor. The dynamic behavior of the rotor center is analyzed under different rotor masses. It is shown that the dynamic responses of the rotor strongly depend on the rotor mass. The periodic, multi-periodic or quasi-periodic motions are observed as the rotor mass changes. Under a given operating speed, the mass at which the resonance occurs is studied and its relationship with the mass of the rotor at the threshold of instability is found for the first time. The influences of supply pressure, bearing clearance, orifice diameter and eccentric distance on the rotational accuracy, the resonance and instability threshold are also investigated. The result of this study can provide guidance for designing aerostatic bearing rotor systems with required running accuracy and stability.
Generation of High Power Femtosecond Optical Pulses from a Semiconductor Diode Laser System (1991)

Compact and efficient sources of high repetition rate, high peak power ultrashort optical pulses are needed to replace the standard ultrashort optical pulse generation schemes due to their relatively large size and poor wall plug efficiency. In this talk, an external cavity mode locked semiconductor laser system which combines both active and passive mode locking techniques is described. This system produces optical pulses that are 0.46 psec in duration with over 70 watt of peak power. These optical pulses are both the shortest and most intense optical pulses ever generated from a semiconductor laser system.
Erythropoietin plus insulin‐like growth factor‐I protects against neuronal damage in a murine model of human immunodeficiency virus‐associated neurocognitive disorders (2010)

Our findings suggest that chronic combination therapy with EPO+IGF-I provides neuroprotection in a mouse model of HAND, in part, through cooperative activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt/GSK-3beta signaling. This combination peptide therapy should therefore be tested in humans with HAND.
An Analysis of the Relationship Between Metabolism, Developmental Schedules, and Longevity Using Phylogenetic Independent Contrasts (2007)

Comparative studies of aging are often difficult to interpret because of the different factors that tend to correlate with longevity. We used the AnAge database to study these factors, particularly metabolism and developmental schedules, previously associated with longevity in vertebrate species. Our results show that, after correcting for body mass and phylogeny, basal metabolic rate does not correlate with longevity in eutherians or birds, although it negatively correlates with marsupial longevity and time to maturity. We confirm the idea that age at maturity is typically proportional to adult life span, and show that mammals that live longer for their body size, such as bats and primates, also tend to have a longer developmental time for their body size. Lastly, postnatal growth rates were negatively correlated with adult life span in mammals but not in birds. Our work provides a detailed view of factors related to species longevity with implications for how comparative studies of aging are interpreted.
Intelligent Autofocus (2020)

We demonstrate that deep learning methods can determine the best focus position from 1-2 image samples, enabling 5-10x faster focus than traditional search-based methods. In contrast with phase detection methods, deep autofocus does not require specialized hardware. In further constrast with conventional methods, which assume a static "best focus," AI methods can generate scene-based focus trajectories that optimize synthesized image quality for dynamic and three dimensional scenes.
Antibiotic susceptibility testing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (1979)

The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of penicillin G, ampicillin, erythromycin, tetracycline and spectinomycin were determined for a number of clinical isolates of Neisserla gonorrhoeae, and the results compared with those obtained using a modified Bauer-Kirby disc diffusion technique. Close statistical correlation of penicillin G, ampicillin and tetracycline MICs and disc susceptibilities was demonstrated. Owing to the relatively wide scatter of points, however, regression lines constructed from these data did not enable reliable prediction of MIC from the diameter of antibiotic inhibition zones. Bauer-Kirby disc susceptibility testing is, therefore, unsuitable for the laboratory differentiation of partially resistant from fully sensitive strains of N. gonorrhoeae.
In-plane external fiber Fabry–Perot cavity comprising silicon micromachined concave mirror (2013)

Light trapping in optical cavities has many applications in optical telecommunications, biomedical optics, atomic studies, and chemical analysis. Efficient optical coupling in these cavities is an important engineering problem that affects greatly the cavity performance. Reported in-plane external fiber Fabry–Perot cavities in the literature are based on flat micromachined mirrors. In this case, the diffraction loss in the cavity is usually overcome by using an expensive-lensed fiber or by inserting a coated lens in the cavity leading to a long cavity with a small free spectral range. In this work, we report a Fabry–Perot cavity formed by a multilayer-coated cleaved-surface single-mode fiber inserted into a groove while facing a three-dimensional concave micromirror; both are fabricated by silicon micromachining. The light is trapped inside the cavity while propagating in-plane of the wafer substrate. Theoretical modeling is carried out, taking into account the effect of asymmetry in the mirror radii of curvature resulting from the micromachining process. A cavity is formed using a concave mirror with 200 and 100 μm in-plane and out-of-plane radii curvature, respectively. The presented cavity has a measured line width of 0.45 nm around 1330 nm showing a quality factor of about 3000, which resembles a one order of magnitude improvement over a flat-mirror cavity.
Strain relaxation caused by defects in InGaN-based multiple-quantum-well near-ultraviolet light-emitting diodes investigated by macroscopic characterization (Conference Presentation) (2020)

There has been a lack of research for proper understanding of defects relaxing the strained lattice of InGaN/(Al)GaN quantum wells. This motivates us to find the relation among the defects, the piezoelectric field (FPZ), and the bandgap shrinkage under high injection. In this work, five similar-structure near-ultraviolet (NUV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are used to find systematically that the increase of point defects in the sample decreases both the peak wavelength and FPZ. This effect clearly indicates that the strain relaxation is induced by defects. We propose a model that consistently explain the observed changes in macroscopic characterizations of NUV LEDs.

Novel Process Techniques to Reduce Voids in Solder Thermal Interface Materials Used for Flip-Chip Package Applications (2005)

In the present study, the thermal performance of flip chip electronics packages was evaluated by characterizing the amount of voiding present in the Solder Thermal Interface Material (STIM) which is placed between the die and Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS). The study found that the thermal resistance, Rjc (resistance between the Si die and IHS), is dependent upon the amount of voiding present as well as the location of the voiding in the STIM. The study also described the techniques to reduce the STIM voids in flip chip packages and identified the key process parameters to improve the thermal performance. The process parameters varied in this study consisted of STIM thickness, dwell time and temperature, flux weight, and many others. A detailed DOE and statistical analysis were carried out to determine the impact of the parameters mentioned above toward reducing the quantity of voids in the STIM. The analysis showed that for the packages under consideration, the primary process parameters that affect the STIM voiding are cure time, flux weight and TIM thickness. This paper was also originally published as part of the Proceedings of the ASME 2005 Pacific Rim Technical Conference and Exhibition on Integration and Packaging of MEMS, NEMS, and Electronic Systems.
Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Knee: Pearls and Pitfalls of Anatomical Reduction and Secure Fixation (2021)

Osteochondritis dissecans of the knee is characterized by sterile necrosis of the subchondral bone and typically affects skeletally immature patients. When left untreated, osteochondritis dissecans can lead to early-onset osteoarthritis, resulting in pain and disability. This study shows the pearls and pitfalls of an arthroscopic technique of fixation performed successfully using a bioabsorbable nail for unstable osteochondritis dissecans lesions located in the medial femoral condyle of the knee.

G0601-8-6 The effect of heat loss on the flammability limit in a liquid fuel HiTAC (2009)

The effect of heat loss on the flammability limit is investigated in a liquid fuel HiTAC. Mixtures of air and N_2 are used as oxidizers. Preheated temperatures of the oxidizers are up to 1023K. The fuel is kerosene. Cooling tubes are installed inside the furnace to investigate the effect of heat loss. Heat losses removed through the cooling tubes are up to 2.3kW. The flammability limit is determined on the basis of the CO concentration which is measured at the exit of furnace. The increase in heat loss shifts the flammability limit to higher preheated temperature and O_2 concentration conditions. The flammability limits occurred in the different heat loss conditions are evaluated on the basis of the flamelet model. The evaluated flammability limits are in good agreement with the experimental results.

Cycle-to-Cycle Feedback for Combustion Control of Spark Advance at the Misfire Limit (2017)

At a given speed and load, the spark advance (SA) is tuned to reach the maximum break torque (MBT) timing to maximize efficiency. The use of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) can further improve fuel economy at the same speed and load. As EGR increases, MBT moves towards a more advanced timing that can be limited by the high variability in the combustion process, reflected in unacceptable torque fluctuations. This variability is rapidly increased by the random occurrence of partial burns and/or misfires. In order to operate close to the misfire limit, a stochastic misfire controller has been designed to momentarily move from an undesired to an allowable misfire rate, without significantly increasing variability in the combustion process. Control-oriented models for the combustion process and misfire events are discussed. Simulation of the closed-loop system shows that the feedback misfire controller, on average, stays closer to the misfire limit than a more conventional controller designed to react when a misfire is detected.
Sub-pixel image interpolations for PIV (2004)

Several interpolations for image deformation in PIV were evaluated. The tested interpolation methods are linear, quadratic, truncated sinc, windowed sinc, cubic, Lagrange, Gaussian 2 nd and 6 th interpolators. Bias errors and random errors were evaluated in the range of 0~3.0 pixel uniform displacement using synthetic images. We also measured the time cost of each interpolator with respect to kernel size. The cubic interpolator with 6×6 kernel showed the best results in terms of the performance and time cost.

A Zero-Area Sagnac Ring Laser Gravitational Wave Detector with Fast-Light Enhanced Strain Sensitivity (2008)

We show that a zero-area Sagnac ring laser based gravitational wave (GW) detector, when augmented by a medium with anomalous dispersion corresponding to superluminal group velocity, becomes hyper-sensitive to GW-induced strain.
A Fixed-Frequency, Tunable Dielectric Resonator Oscillator With Phase-Locked Loop Stabilization (2022)

Highly stable oscillators used for microwave measurement systems require both excellent long-term and short-term stability. The dielectric resonator oscillator (DRO) offers a unique combination of high performance and simple construction. Its drift and noise are already comparably low, but can be further reduced by phase-locked loop stabilization. In this work, the design and measurement of a low-cost DRO concept with a phase noise of −107.2 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset frequency and 12.8 GHz output frequency is presented. An electronic control loop reduces drift and phase noise of the oscillator resulting in a very low jitter of 29 fs.
Thermosonic bonding of high-power semiconductor devices for integration with planar microstrip circuitry (2002)

This paper reports the results of our thermosonic bonding process development effort for the attachment of high power discrete Gunn devices to a machined and plated copper block, for interconnection with planar microstrip circuitry. High power devices are attached to the gold on a plated copper block at elevated temperature under pressure from a vacuum pickup tool tip. Diodes are then gold-ribbon bonded to microstrip circuitry using the same approach. The paper addresses the ranges of bonding temperatures, bond load, ultrasonic power and the duration of bonding required to minimize the stresses that damage the diode, without degrading the bond integrity. It is observed that the introduction of ultrasonic energy into the bonding process significantly reduces the temperature and assembly force applied to the diode. Finally, this paper describes our findings concerning the effects of different assembly parameters on device heat dissipation.
Fabrication of open-cell porous aluminum by friction powder sintering process (2014)

A new friction powder compaction process by the sintering and dissolution process route for fabricating open-cell porous aluminum (Al), which requires no external heat sources except friction heat, was developed. The sintering of the mixture of Al and NaCl powders was conducted only by a rotating tool plunged into the mixture. Namely, the sintering of the mixture was achieved because of the friction heat and pressing load generated by the rotating tool plunged into the mixture. In this study, porous Al with porosities of 60%, 70% and 80% were successfully fabricated. Their pore structures were observed by SEM and X-ray computed tomography (CT), and their mechanical properties were investigated by compression tests. It was found that almost the entire specimen had pore structures similar to the NaCl morphology regardless of the porosity. Plateau stress decreased with increasing porosity indicating strong relationships between them. Porous Al exhibited ductile fracture regardless of its porosity, which is considered to be attributed to the good bonding between Al particles.
Brisk Lymphocytosis with Aberrant Expression of CD5 in the Leukemic Phase of Follicular Lymphoma. (2009)

Abstract Abstract 5033 Background Follicular lymphoma (FL) is generally considered to be an indolent, low-grade lymphoma. However, rarely, FL can present with a marked lymphocytosis, in a so-called leukemic phase, with a significant impact on response to therapy and outcome. We summarize here our experience with two such cases. Case 1 Pt #1 was diagnosed with stage IVB/S (FLIPI 5) FL on 6/2006. He presented to us after failing to obtain a remission with 9 cycles of CVP+R (Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Prednisone, and Rituximab), followed by 6 cycles of FR (Fludarabine and Rituximab). After consultation with our service, he elected to be treated with BR (Bendamustine+Rituximab) in 8/2008 in preparation for allogeneic transplantation. He later opted to defer transplant, and died 3/2009, approximately 33 months from the time of diagnosis. Case 2 Pt #2 was diagnosed with stage IVB/S (FLIPI 3) FL on 5/2006. He was initially treated with 2 cycles of CVP+R. Because of progressive disease during therapy, his regimen was changed to CHOP+R (Cyclophosphamide, Adriamycin, Vincristine, Prednisone, and Rituximab). Following his third cycle he was found to have hydronephrosis from progressive lymphadenopathy. A biopsy was obtained and revealed a transformation to diffuse large b-cell lymphoma. This occurred approximately 4 months from the time of diagnosis. He went on to receive 3 cycles of ESHAP+R (Etoposide, Methylprednisolone, Cytarabine, Cisplatin, and Rituximab), followed by 2 cycles of a regimen composed of Ifosfamide, Navelbine, Gemcitabine, and Rituximab, both without improvement. He was ultimately discharged to Hospice and died 3/2007, approximately 11 months from the time of diagnosis. Clinical and pathologic features of these two cases at presentation are shown in Table 1. Conclusion In our case series, leukemic presentation in FL was associated with a poor response to therapy and limited survival. Interestingly, both patients demonstrated aberrant expression of CD5, and required further molecular characterization to rule out alternative diagnoses such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia and mantle cell lymphoma. Although not uniformly seen in FL with lymphocytosis, small series in FL, as well as other lymphomas, suggest that lymphocytosis is more likely to occur with CD5 expression. An even smaller data set exists on outcomes in CD5 positive leukemic FL, with much of data similarly suggesting poor outcomes despite aggressive chemotherapy regimens and autologous stem cell transplant. FL when accompanied by a brisk lymphocytosis and aberrant CD5 expression may herald a more aggressive disease. Whether similarly aggressive chemotherapy regimens and stem cell transplant can alter the dismal outcome in these patients has yet to be determined. Disclosures Off Label Use: Lenalidomide is an immune modulator drug currently being studied for efficacy in conjunction with Rituxan in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. This abstract summarizes a unique side effect, hypercalcemia, seen among a small cohort of patients on this study.
