Intelligent Traffic-Lights Management by Exploiting Smart Antenna Technology (ITSAT) (2020)

Existing traffic lights’ timings and switching patterns do not operate with real-time traffic conditions. This results in wastage of time, fuel, and higher emission of CO <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> . This paper proposes an intelligent traffic-lights management system by exploiting Smart Antenna Technology (already installed on cellular Base Stations). With the proposed approach, the traffic lights’ duration adapts to the real-time traffic flow. Our proposed approach does not delve into improvements of Smart Antenna Technology but suggests to extract cell-phones’ location information, which translates it into traffic density and use the information to control traffic lights’ timings. The work is based on the assumption that the cell-phones density corresponds to the vehicles’ density on the roadways. We also propose a Notifier integrated into the TDC. It alerts the driver about the signal transition from red to green, and thus helps drivers use their cell phones serenely for the transitory duration the light stays the red. The analysis shows that the proposed approach not only improves the Average Waiting Time (AWT) by 59.3% but also saves 3.42 gallons of fuel, and reduces CO <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> emission by 67 pounds per year for each commuter.
The Rgr Oncogene Induces Tumorigenesis in Transgenic Mice (2004)

To study the oncogenic potential of Rgr in vivo, we have generated several transgenic Rgr mouse lines, which express the oncogene under the control of different promoters. These studies revealed that Rgr expression leads to the generation of various pathological alterations, including fibrosarcomas, when its transgenic expression is restricted to nonlymphoid tissues. Moreover, the overall incidence and latency of fibrosarcomas were substantially increased and shortened, respectively, in a p15INK4b-defective background. More importantly, we also have demonstrated that Rgr expression in thymocytes of transgenic mice induces severe alterations in the development of the thymocytes, which eventually lead to a high incidence of thymic lymphomas. This study demonstrates that oncogenic Rgr can induce expression of p15INK4b and, more importantly, that both Rgr and p15INK4b cooperate in the malignant phenotype in vivo. These findings provide new insights into the tumorigenic role of Rgr as a potent oncogene and show that p15INK4b can act as a tumor suppressor gene.
The Gene Ontology project in 2008 (2007)

The Gene Ontology (GO) project (http://www.geneontology.org/) provides a set of structured, controlled vocabularies for community use in annotating genes, gene products and sequences (also see http://www.sequenceontology.org/). The ontologies have been extended and refined for several biological areas, and improvements to the structure of the ontologies have been implemented. To improve the quantity and quality of gene product annotations available from its public repository, the GO Consortium has launched a focused effort to provide comprehensive and detailed annotation of orthologous genes across a number of 'reference' genomes, including human and several key model organisms. Software developments include two releases of the ontology-editing tool OBO-Edit, and improvements to the AmiGO browser interface.

Chronic Neurological Deficits and Nesacaine-CE-An Effect of the Anesthetic, 2-Chloroprocaine, or the Antioxidant, Sodium Bisulfite? (1984)

Chronic neurological deficits have been described in patients after presumed accidental subarachnoid injection of 2-chloroprocaine-CE (Nesacaine-CE; N-CE) intended for epidural block. This study investigated the possible role of pure 2-chloroprocaine (2-CP) and sodium bisulfite, two components of Nesacaine-CE, in causing these complications when injected separately into the lumbar subarachnoid space of neurologically intact awake rabbits. Repeated 2-4-mg spinal anesthetic doses of pure 2-CP in lactated Ringer's solution did not produce chronic hindlimb paralysis even though accumulated doses reached 50 mg. However, 1.2-2.4 mg of sodium bisulfite, the antioxidant in N-CE added to prolong shelf-life, resulted in irreversible hindlimb paralysis in 12 out of 14 animals. This amount of bisulfite is contained in 12-24 mg of 2% N-CE. The demonstration that persistent paralysis resulted from low dosages of sodium bisulfite contained in commercially available 2-CP requires reevaluation of the suitability of this antioxidant for products prepared for intrathecal use.
Rank-based camera spectral sensitivity estimation (2016)

In order to accurately predict a digital camera response to spectral stimuli, the spectral sensitivity functions of its sensor need to be known. These functions can be determined by direct measurement in the lab-a difficult and lengthy procedure-or through simple statistical inference. Statistical inference methods are based on the observation that when a camera responds linearly to spectral stimuli, the device spectral sensitivities are linearly related to the camera rgb response values, and so can be found through regression. However, for rendered images, such as the JPEG images taken by a mobile phone, this assumption of linearity is violated. Even small departures from linearity can negatively impact the accuracy of the recovered spectral sensitivities, when a regression method is used. In our work, we develop a novel camera spectral sensitivity estimation technique that can recover the linear device spectral sensitivities from linear images and the effective linear sensitivities from rendered images. According to our method, the rank order of a pair of responses imposes a constraint on the shape of the underlying spectral sensitivity curve (of the sensor). Technically, each rank-pair splits the space where the underlying sensor might lie in two parts (a feasible region and an infeasible region). By intersecting the feasible regions from all the ranked-pairs, we can find a feasible region of sensor space. Experiments demonstrate that using rank orders delivers equal estimation to the prior art. However, the Rank-based method delivers a step-change in estimation performance when the data is not linear and, for the first time, allows for the estimation of the effective sensitivities of devices that may not even have "raw mode." Experiments validate our method.
A new robust over rail to rail comparator based on DCG-FGT transistor (2012)

A new comparator based on Dual Control Gate Floating Gate Transistor (DCG-FGT) that allow increasing input voltage range over rail-to-rail is proposed. The comparator operates with a supply voltage ranging from 1.6V to 3.6 V in 90 nm CMOS technology. The comparator is simulated under ELDO and consumes 3.2μA under typical condition.
Coping with Complexity in Molecular Design (2013)

In this chapter, we explore several issues of complexity in molecular design, focusing initially on the complexity model that we introduced over 10 years ago, which explores the probability of useful interactions occurring with ligands and binding sites of differing complexity. We explore some extensions of the model, which include uniqueness of binding mode and sensitivity of detection. In addition, we review the promiscuity data that supports and challenges the model, concluding that the use of molecular weight as a complexity measure does not account for the promiscuity introduced by excessive lipophilicity. We explore the subject of molecular interactions from the perspective of Shannon entropy and how this may help to understand some of the issues associated with lipophilic interactions. We then address the issues associated with sampling of chemical space and the challenges of understanding and navigating the vastness of such spaces. The challenge of understanding the complexity of thermodynamic entropy and enthalpy is also discussed. Finally, we discuss the challenges of taking a reductionist approach to drug discovery and how the emergence of new behaviors as complexity is rebuilt is difficult to predict and hence prepare for in advance.
How morphology influences relaxivity – comparative study of superparamagnetic iron oxide–polymer hybrid nanostructures (2015)

Superparamagnetic iron oxides (SPIOs) are widely used in MRI as T2 contrast agents, and interest is still growing. Here, the T2 relaxivity of three different SPIO-polymer hybrid morphologies, i.e. homogeneously distributed iron oxide within a polymer matrix, Janus-like nanoparticles and polymer nanocapsules containing iron oxides, is studied. Making use of calculations based on theory for agglomerated systems, the obtained T2 values could be predicted for all different morphologies, except for nanocapsules. Nanocapsules, in contrast to full spheres, allow for water exchange between encapsulated water and bulk water, and thus have two contributions to relaxivity. One originates from the capsules acting as a weakly magnetized cluster and the other stems from the individual SPIOs inside the capsule. Therefore, the relaxivities were also computed using an empirical equation found in the literature, which considers water exchange, resulting in a better T2 forecast for the nanocapsules. The presented study is the first example of a comparison between measured and calculated relaxivities of nanocapsules.
Fast direct and inverse EMI algorithms for enhanced identification of buried UXO with real EMI data (2004)

Discrimination of buried unexploded ordinance (UXO) from innocuous buried items remains a challenging, top priority problem for the electromagnetic induction (EMI) sensing community. In general, classification is an inverse problem, requiring very fast and accurate representation of the target response. To address this critical issue, this paper presents a very fast, rigorous way to compute EMI scattering from a realistically complex, composite target. Full interaction between all parts of the object are included in the calculations. The method is based on a hybrid of the full method of auxiliary source (MAS) and the MAS-thin skin depth approximation formulation (MAS-TSA), together with new modal decomposition and reduced source set techniques. For general excitation, a primary field is decomposed into the fundamental spheroidal modes on a fictitious spheroid surrounding a real target. Finally the total response from the target is reproduced using only a few auxiliary magnetic charges. A least square minimization is used for discrimination an unseen object's orientation and position. Numerical results are given and compared with experimental data.
Latency and Reliability Analysis of Cellular Networks in Unlicensed Spectrum (2020)

In this paper, the achievable latency-reliability performance of a standalone cellular network over the 5 GHz unlicensed spectrum is analysed. Fulfilling strict latency-reliability requirements comes with significant challenges for unlicensed operation, especially due to mandatory channel access procedures. Using MulteFire as the reference system-model, an analysis of a highly realistic multi-cell network with bi-directional traffic shows that latency of 23 ms with a reliability level of 99.99% is achievable for low-loads, while latency is increased to 79 ms at high-loads. Different techniques are described to improve the system performance. First, a pre-emptive scheme to cope with continuous uplink listen before talk (LBT) failures for uplink control transmissions is proposed. It provides a latency reduction of 24% at low-loads with two transmission opportunities and 11% for high-loads with three opportunities. Secondly, the possibility of skipping LBT performance under given conditions is evaluated. This results in a lower uplink LBT failure rate which translates to a latency reduction of 8% for low-loads and up to 14% for high-loads, at 99.99% reliability. Thirdly, as an alternative to grant-based uplink, grant-free uplink is evaluated. Grant-free uplink achieves better performance than grant-based uplink at low-loads, offering 50% lower uplink latency. At high-loads, the gain of grant-free uplink decreases due to the high number of simultaneous transmissions.
Comparison of DIC Methods of Determining Necking Limit of PLC Material (2017)

Digital image correlation (DIC) techniques have been used in forming limit tests to obtain forming limit strains and many different methods have been proposed to determine the onset of localized necking in order to improve the accuracy of forming limit curves in recent ten years. In this work, necking limit strains of a PLC material (AA5182-O) was determined by the DIC strain rate contours as well as the existing DIC methods in the literature. The effect of PLC band propagation on identification the onset of localized necking was discussed.
Impact of Plasma Electron Flux on Plasma Damage‐Free Sputtering of Ultrathin Tin‐Doped Indium Oxide Contact Layer on p‐GaN for InGaN/GaN Light‐Emitting Diodes (2017)

The origin of plasma-induced damage on a <i><b>p</b></i> -type wide-bandgap layer during the sputtering of tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) contact layers by using radiofrequency-superimposed direct current (DC) sputtering and its effects on the forward voltage and light output power (LOP) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with sputtered ITO transparent conductive electrodes (TCE) is systematically studied. Changing the DC power voltage from negative to positive bias reduces the forward voltages and enhances the LOP of the LEDs. The positive DC power drastically decreases the electron flux in the plasma obtained by plasma diagnostics using a cutoff probe and a Langmuir probe, suggesting that the repulsion of plasma electrons from the <i><b>p</b></i> -GaN surface can reduce plasma-induced damage to the <i><b>p</b></i> -GaN. Furthermore, electron-beam irradiation on <i><b>p</b></i> -GaN prior to ITO deposition significantly increases the forward voltages, showing that the plasma electrons play an important role in plasma-induced damage to the <i><b>p</b></i> -GaN. The plasma electrons can increase the effective barrier height at the ITO/deep-level defect (DLD) band of <i><b>p</b></i> -GaN by compensating DLDs, resulting in the deterioration of the forward voltage and LOP. Finally, the plasma damage-free sputtered-ITO TCE enhances the LOP of the LEDs by 20% with a low forward voltage of 2.9 V at 20 mA compared to LEDs with conventional e-beam-evaporated ITO TCE.
Advancing the understanding of mainstream shortcut nitrogen removal: resource efficiency, carbon redirection, and plant capacity (2022)

Shortcut nitrogen removal (SNR) reduces aeration, carbon, and alkalinity requirements, but the magnitude of this benefit is often overstated. SNR allows for upstream carbon diversion and anammox processes allow for significant WRRF capacity gains.

Acousto-optic tunable filter using phased-array transducer with linearized RF to optical frequency mapping (2005)

We present an optimized design of an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) using a phased-array transducer for a spectrally-multiplexed ultrafast pulse-shaping RF beamformer application. The momentum-space interaction geometry is used to optimize an AOTF using acoustic beam-steering techniques in combination with acoustic anisotropy in order to linearly map the applied RF frequency to the filtered output optical frequency. The appropriate crystal orientation and phased-array transducer design are determined to linearize the RF to optical frequency mapping even in the presence of optical dispersion of the birefringence. After optimizing the phased-array transducer, acoustic anisotropy, and optical anisotropic diffraction geometry, the designed AOTF will compensate for the birefringent dispersion of TeO<sub>2</sub> to give a linear modulation of RF frequencies onto the corresponding optical frequencies. This linearized frequency mapped AOTF is required for a squint-compensated, wavelength-multiplexed, optically processed RF imager.
Human blood IgM "memory" B cells are circulating splenic marginal zone B cells harboring a pre-diversified immunoglobulin repertoire Running title: Circulating splenic marginal zone B cells in human (2004)

The human peripheral B cell compartment displays a large population of IgMIgDCD27 “memory” B cell carrying a mutated Ig receptor. We show here, by phenotypic analysis, CDR3 spectratyping during a T-independent response and gene expression profiling of the different blood and splenic B cell subsets, that blood IgMIgDCD27 cells correspond to circulating splenic marginal zone B cells. Furthermore, analysis of this peripheral subset in normal children below 2 years shows that these B cells develop and mutate their Ig receptor during ontogeny, prior to their differentiation into Tindependent antigen-responsive cells. It is therefore proposed that these IgMIgDCD27 B cells provide the splenic marginal zone with a diversified and protective pre-immune repertoire in charge of the responses against encapsulated bacteria.
Fixed Job Scheduling Model for Single Depot Transit Vehicle Assignment (2011)

A basic fixed job scheduling model to formulate the single depot transit vehicle assignment (SDTVA) is proposed. Formulating the transit vehicle assignment to the fixed job scheduling problem allows transportation engineers to make use of those out-of-the-box theories and solution methods already developed for fixed job scheduling problem. The proposed model takes block as the basic unit of scheduling and takes the travel time constraints into consideration. Based on the concept of the "First Come First Serve" greedy algorithm, a solution algorithm is introduced with a realistic example of campus routes scheduling at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW-Madison) to demonstrate the application. An optimal result is achieved and shown directly in a Gantt chart. Compared to the current vehicle scheduling, the optimal outcome of the proposed fixed job scheduling model for SDTVA can obtain better scheduling to reduce the vehicles consumed when providing the same amount of blocks and thereby improve the transit system's operating efficiency.
Simulated tolerance of loop parameters of Cartesian feedback amplifier for pi /4-shifted QPSK transmitter (2003)

Evaluates Cartesian feedback amplifier performance for a mobile terminal for a digital cellular system using pi /4-shifted QPSK. To determine the out-of-band emission, the authors calculated spectra in peak-hold mode based on RCR Standard STD-27 on Japan Digital Cellular Telecommunication System. They calculated the tolerance of the feedback amplifier's loop parameters, assuming TDMA system parameters based on the RCR specifications. Since the specifications for out-of-band emission of -45 dB at 50 kHz and -60 dB at 100 kHz from the band center were satisfied, the Cartesian feedback amplifier is applicable to a TDMA transmitter and is easily implemented for practical applications.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
In‐Flight Synthesis of Core–Shell Mg/Si–SiOx Particles with Greatly Reduced Ignition Temperature (2023)

Abstract Magnesium is a promising candidate as a solid fuel for energetic applications, however, the diffusion‐controlled oxidation mechanism impedes its reaction with an oxidizer, often resulting in diminished performance. In this study, non‐thermal plasma processing is implemented to modify the surface of magnesium nanoparticles with silicon in‐flight, in the gas‐phase to enhance the rate of interfacial reactions and tune the ignition pathways. Allowing the silicon coating to partially oxidize provides direct contact between the fuel and oxidizer, resulting in a nanostructured thermite system at the single particle level. The proximal distance between oxidizer and fuel directly impacts the ignition temperature and, therefore, the combustion kinetics. An intermetallic reaction occurs within the magnesium/silicon system to supplement the heating of the magnesium fuel to initiate its reaction with the oxidizer, resulting in highly reduced ignition thresholds. The ignition temperature is lowered significantly from ≈740 °C for magnesium particles with a native oxide layer to ≈520 °C for particles coated via the in‐flight plasma process.

Beyond Contact Tracing: Community-Based Early Detection for Ebola\n Response (2015)

The 2014 Ebola outbreak in west Africa raised many questions about the\ncontrol of infectious disease in an increasingly connected global society.\nLimited availability of contact information made contact tracing difficult or\nimpractical in combating the outbreak. We consider the development of\nmulti-scale public health strategies and simulate policies for community-level\nresponse aimed at early screening of communities rather than individuals, as\nwell as travel restrictions to prevent community cross-contamination. Our\nanalysis shows the policies to be effective even at a relatively low level of\ncompliance. In our simulations, 40% of individuals conforming to these policies\nis enough to stop the outbreak. Simulations with a 50% compliance rate are\nconsistent with the case counts in Liberia during the period of rapid decline\nafter mid September, 2014. We also find the travel restriction to be effective\nat reducing the risks associated with compliance substantially below the 40%\nlevel, shortening the outbreak and enabling efforts to be focused on affected\nareas. Our results suggest that the multi-scale approach can be used to further\nevolve public health strategy for defeating emerging epidemics.\n
