Autostereoscopic 3D &#x2014; How can we move to the next step? (2011)

The 3DTV market has already started and more people have been enjoying new visual experience. But annoyance of wearing 3D glasses is a problem and the autostereoscopic display still has several limitations unsolved. This presentation discusses these limitations and our approaches to overcome them.
Neural-Learning Trajectory Tracking Control of Flexible-Joint Robot Manipulators with Unknown Dynamics (2019)

Fast and precise motion control is important for industrial robots in manufacturing applications. However, some collaborative robots sacrifice precision for safety, particular for high motion speed. The performance degradation is caused by the inability of the joint servo controller to address the uncertain nonlinear dynamics of the robot arm, e.g., due to joint flexibility. We consider two approaches to improve the trajectory tracking performance through feedforward compensation. The first approach uses iterative learning control, with the gradient-based iterative update generated from the robot forward dynamics model. The second approach uses dynamic inversion to directly compensate for the robot forward dynamics. If the forward dynamics is strictly proper or is non-minimum-phase (e.g., due to time delays), its stable inverse would be non-causal. Both approaches require robot dynamical models. This paper presents results of using recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to approximate these dynamical models-forward dynamics in the first case, inverse dynamics (possibly non-causal) in the second case. We use the bi-directional RNN to capture the noncausality. The RNNs are trained based on a collection of commanded trajectories and the actual robot responses. We use a Baxter robot to evaluate the two approaches. The Baxter robot exhibits significant joint flexibility due to the series-elastic joint actuators. Both approaches achieve sizable improvement over the uncompensated robot motion, for both random joint trajectories and Cartesian motion. The inverse dynamics method is particularly attractive as it may be used to more accurately track a user input as in teleoperation.

Scalable anonymous connections in the context of MIP and AAA (2002)

IP-packets sent over the Internet may reveal detailed information about who communicates with whom. To conceal the identities of sender and receiver, present approaches involve particular network nodes that forward the communication traffic often using cryptographic techniques to en-/decrypt the in-/outgoing data. The current anonymity approaches suite applications that do not have time constraints supporting a limited number of subscribers. These approaches are not suited for a worldwide, possibly time critical scenario with a huge number of subscribers. Diverting all communication traffic over such network nodes would cause bottlenecks and traffic delays. For concealing the relationship of sender and receiver we propose an optional, reasonable anonymity service scalable for a large number of subscribers, possible communicating under time constraints. In addition, when integrating our approach in the context of Mobile IP, authentication, authorization and accounting we neither weaken the proposed trust model nor extend the number of involved entities.
Modeling of temperature distribution in a reinforced concrete supertall structure based on structural health monitoring data (2011)

A long-term structural health monitoring (SHM) system comprising over 700 sensors of sixteen types has been implemented on the Guangzhou Television and Sightseeing Tower (GTST) of 610 m high for real-time monitoring of the structure at both construction and service stages. As part of this sophisticated SHM system, 48 temperature sensors have been deployed at 12 cross-sections of the reinforced concrete inner structure of the GTST to provide on-line monitoring via a wireless data transmission system. In this paper, the differential temperature profiles in the reinforced concrete inner structure of the GTST, which are mainly caused by solar radiation, are recognized from the monitoring data with the purpose of understanding the temperature-induced structural internal forces and deformations. After a careful examination of the pre-classified temperature measurement data obtained under sunny days and non-sunny days, common characteristic of the daily temperature variation is observed from the data acquired in sunny days. Making use of 60-day temperature measurement data obtained in sunny days, statistical patterns of the daily rising temperature and daily descending temperature are synthesized, and temperature distribution models of the reinforced concrete inner structure of the GTST are formulated using linear regression analysis. The developed monitoring-based temperature distribution models will serve as a reliable input for numerical prediction of the temperature-induced deformations and provide a robust basis to facilitate the design and construction of similar structures in consideration of thermal effects.
Colonial dissociation and susceptibility to phagocytosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa grown in a chamber implant model in mice (1987)

Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were grown in 1-cm plastic chambers sealed at both ends with porous Millipore filters and implanted in the peritonea of mice. Mucoid and nonmucoid strains of P. aeruginosa isolated from a patient with cystic fibrosis largely retained their phenotypes when grown for up to 1 year in this in vivo system, although colonial dissociation occurred, as observed in chronic lung infections of patients with cystic fibrosis. In the absence of added opsonins, P. aeruginosa M2 cells taken directly from the in vivo system were significantly more susceptible to phagocytosis than were the same P. aeruginosa cells after being washed in buffer. Phagocytosis of in vivo-grown P. aeruginosa cells could be further enhanced by using a porin protein F-specific monoclonal antibody.

Female Gonadal Toxicities after Treatment of Primary Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL). Analysis of the LENT-SOMA Questionnaire Registered in the Database of the German Hodgkin Study Group (GHSG). (2006)

Abstract Introduction: As a consequence of the impressive long-term remission rates in Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL), the reduction of treatment-related complications is becoming increasingly important. The most important treatment-related toxicities are secondary malignancies, infertility, pulmonary, cardiac, and thyroid dysfunction. Here, we report results of the prospectively planned LENT-SOMA questionnaire to determine female gonadal toxicities in women successfully treated for HL. Patients and methods: Between 1998 and 2002, the GHSG has conducted the fourth generation of clinical trials for the treatment of early, intermediate and advanced stage HL (HD 10–12) involving a total of approximately 4000 evaluable patients. The LENT-SOMA questionnaire was sent out to the participating centers 2, 5 and 10 years after a patient’s randomisation to evaluate cardiac, pulmonary, and gonadal dysfunction after HL treatment. To focus on female gonadal toxicities, questions referred to the menstrual cycle, infertility, and osteoporosis. Results: Overall, approximately 1.900 (50%) LENT-SOMA questionnaire after 2 years were identified. A total of 568 questionnaire were evaluable for the question of menstrual cycle after therapy. Amenorrhea was most frequent in women with advanced stage after treatment with 8 cycles of escalated BEACOPP compared to treatment consisting of 4 cycles of escalated BEACOPP plus 4 cycles of BEACOPP baseline (45% vs. 19%, p&amp;lt;0.0001). A regular cycle was most commonly reported in women treated with two or four cycles of ABVD (98.8% and 95.9%). The frequency of gonadal dysfunction will be evaluated according to treatment modality (chemotherapy, chemo- and radiotherapy) and it will be analysed with respect to age. Conclusion: Female gonadal toxicities after HL treatment include amenorrhea, infertility and osteoporosis. The first analysis of the LENT-SOMA questionnaire focussing on female gonadal dysfunction will be presented.
Embedded Networks in Mobile Devices (2012)

The concept of a mobile phone has recently transformed into a new concept of mobile multimedia devices capable of performing multiple complex tasks and integrating multiple functionalities. It has resulted in a significant increase of device integration costs and complicated deployment of new technologies. Device integrator companies favor modularity everywhere possible, which results in a new trend toward networked architectures for the mobile devices. However, comparing to the best-known embedded network solutions, e.g., SoC and NoC, these architectures have unique constraints and requirements, which also are significantly different from the wide area networks. The main constraints are power consumption and having a modular architecture to allow reuse of the components. Transition to the new architectures for mobile devices is a time consuming task that requires the analysis of many solutions applied in other contexts, especially for embedded protocols, QoS and resource management. This article reviews the state of the art in embedded networks research and the key assumptions, restrictions and limitations faced by designers of embedded networks architectures for mobile devices.

Quantifying the horizontal vector fidelity of a marine multicomponent acquisition system (2004)

In this paper, we demonstrate how we have quantified the vector fidelity of a marine multicomponent acquisition system using different metrics applied to data from various acquisition geometries. We find that the system performs to expectations with typical linearity variations of less than 1% and gain mismatches between the horizontal components of less than 10%. Analysis of converted‐wave arrivals demonstrates excellent measurements of shear‐wave splitting consistent with other measurements of azimuthal anisotropy in the locality.
Color Noise Reduction Method in Non-constant Luminance Signal for High Dynamic Range Video Service (2016)

A high dynamic range (HDR) video service is an upcoming issue in the broadcasting industry. For compatibility with legacy devices receiving a non-constant luminance (NCL) signal, new tools supporting an HDR video service are required. The current pre-processing chain of HDR video can produce color noise owing to the chroma component down-sampling process for video encoding. Although a luma adjustment method has been proposed to solve this problem, some disadvantages still remain. In this paper, we present an adaptive color noise reduction method for an NCL signal of an HDR video service. The proposed method adjusts the luma component of an NCL signal adaptively according to the information of the luma component from a constant luminance signal and the level of color saturation. Experiment results show that the color noise problem is resolved by applying our proposed method. In addition, the speed of the pre-processing is increased more than two-fold compared to a previous method.

Measurements of emitter resistance in Si FEA (2002)

Resistance of field emission tips can play an important role in the field emission cathode operation, in particular for stable and uniform emission from field emission arrays (FEA). The development of a non-destructive technique for direct measurements of resistance of the silicon field emission tips is also important for some interdisciplinary problems. However, until now, there are no reliable technique for control and measurements of the resistivity of tiny VLS whiskers. In this paper a technique for determination of the resistance of field emitters is presented.
Topology optimization of IP over ATM (2002)

This paper discusses an extension to the PNNI augmented routing (PAR) protocol where PAR servers taking part in the Private Network to Network Interface (PNNI) protocol, and therefore aware of the PNNI topology, tag the PAR information delivered to the routers with topological metrics. These topological metrics reflect the location of the node that originated the PAR information. Routers can use this information to decide intelligently with which other routers to peer and establish adjacencies, thus optimizing the IP topology overlaying the ATM topology. Two optimization scenarios are described, one in the context of an enterprise network running OSPF, the other in the context of mobile networks running unicast RIP v2.0 to communicate among themselves.
Learning and recall algorithm for optical associative memory using a bistable spatial light modulator (1995)

A learning and recall algorithm for optical associative memory based on the conventional correlationlearning method with three effective improvements (sparse-encoding method, constant-total-activity method, and binary memory) is proposed from a viewpoint of practical implementation. It is shown that the algorithm is suitable for implementation with a bistable spatial light modulator such as a ferroelectric liquid-crystal spatial light modulator, which has high resolution and a fast response time. The results of theoretical analysis and simulations indicate that the algorithm permits an associative-memory system with a large memory capacity to be realized. An example of an optical system for executing this algorithm is proposed. To determine the performance specifications that are required for the various optical components within the system, we simulate and evaluate the effect of noise (which is caused by nonideal components) on system performance. These results show that the system is robust in the presence of predicted noise levels.
Three-dimensional photonic crystals fabricated by simultaneous multidirectional etching (2015)

We discuss three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals fabricated by simultaneous multidirectional plasma etching. First, we investigate a method for controlling the ion sheath used in reactive ion etching for obtaining multidirectional etching. We then discuss the fabrication tolerance from an analytical perspective. Based on our results, we demonstrate the fabrication of 3D photonic crystals with thicknesses of 1, 1.5, and 2 lattice periods in the surface-normal direction on single-crystalline silicon wafers, which show high reflectance $(\ensuremath{\sim}100%)$ and low transmittance $(\ensuremath{-}17\phantom{\rule{0.28em}{0ex}}\mathrm{dB})$ at optical communication wavelengths, suggesting the formation of a complete photonic band gap. We reveal that the shape of the etched holes limits the performance of 3D photonic crystals and suggest possible ways to improve the band-gap effect. Moreover, we show that 3D photonic crystals with short lattice constants show high reflectance $(\ensuremath{\sim}80%)$ at visible to near-infrared wavelengths. By investigating the influence of absorption on the characteristics of 3D photonic crystals, we reveal that the reflectance remains as high as 94% in the photonic band-gap range even when the absorption of silicon is taken into account. We find that a unique increase of absorption occurs at several discrete wavelengths below the photonic band gap, suggesting the possibility of manipulating light absorption. These results not only simplify the fabrication of 3D photonic crystals, but also provide a basis for realizing 3D photonic nanostructures that include other materials.

Vehicular networking for autonomous driving [Guest Editorial] (2015)

The research area of vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2X) networking and respective cooperative driving applications has been growing in recent decades. Now it is clear that V2X wireless technology will be a communication baseline for many promising cooperative automotive applications, which will make driving safer, more energy-efficient, and more comfortable. Autonomous driving is the next step, which is considered a strategic direction by many vehicle manufacturers. Although there is still a long way before fully autonomous vehicles are introduced massively in ubiquitous city environments, it is already practically feasible to consider fully automatic operation of vehicles in restricted areas (harbors, parking lots, dedicated public transport lanes). Autonomous cooperative driving enabled by V2X communications has highly demanding operating conditions and generates delay-sensitive data traffic with requirements for high reliability.

CSTI-300 (SMP-100); a Novel 5-HT3 Receptor Partial Agonist with Potential to Treat Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome or Carcinoid Syndrome (2020)

The 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) (serotonin) 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor represents a clinical target for antagonists to deliver symptomatic relief to patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-d) or carcinoid syndrome. Unfortunately, this pharmacological strategy can present side effects (e.g., severe constipation). The present study investigates the potential of a novel 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor partial agonist, CSTI-300, to treat patients with IBS-d and other conditions associated with discomfort from colonic distension, with a predicted reduced side-effect profile. The in vitro and in vivo preclinical pharmacology of the drug CSTI-300 was investigated to explore the potential to treat patients with IBS-d. CSTI-300 displayed selective high affinity for the human and rat 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor (K<sub>i</sub> approximately 2.0 nM) and acted as a partial agonist (approximately 30%-50% intrinsic efficacy) in vitro. In an in vivo model of IBS-d, the rat colon distension model, CSTI-300 displayed dose-dependent efficacy. In addition, oral administration of CSTI-300 to dogs that achieved plasma levels of the drug exceeding the K<sub>i</sub> value for the 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor failed to either evoke emesis or alter the state of feces. Pharmacokinetics for CSTI-300 in rat and dog identified high levels of oral availability with <i>t</i> <sub>1/2</sub> range of 1.6-4.4 hours. The preclinical pharmacology of the lead candidate drug, CSTI-300, supports the potential of this novel drug to offer symptomatic relief to patients with irritable bowel syndrome and carcinoid syndrome with a rationale for a reduced "on-target" side-effect profile relative to 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor antagonists, such as alosetron. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: There is a lack of effective current treatment for diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome and carcinoid syndrome, and in both conditions, overactivity of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor is thought to be implicated in the pathophysiology. Because 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor blockade with antagonists results in significant side effects, we present evidence that treatment with a suitable 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor partial agonist will alleviate some symptoms associated with these conditions yet, without fully inhibiting the receptor, predict a less pronounced side-effect profile associated with this therapeutic strategy.
