Communication Schemes with Constrained Reordering of Resources (2013)

This paper introduces a communication model inspired by two practical scenarios. The first scenario is related to the concept of protocol coding, where information is encoded in the actions taken by an existing communication protocol. We investigate strategies for protocol coding via combinatorial reordering of the labelled user resources (packets, channels) in an existing, primary system. However, the degrees of freedom of the reordering are constrained by the operation of the primary system. The second scenario is related to communication systems with energy harvesting, where the transmitted signals are constrained by the energy that is available through the harvesting process. We have introduced a communication model that covers both scenarios and elicits their key feature, namely the constraints of the primary system or the harvesting process. We have shown how to compute the capacity of the channels pertaining to the communication model when the resources that can be reordered have binary values. The capacity result is valid under arbitrary error model in which errors in each resource (packet) occur independently. Inspired by the information-theoretic analysis, we have shown how to design practical error-correcting codes suited for the communication model. It turns out that the information-theoretic insights are instrumental for devising superior design of error-control codes.
Anticopper Therapy with Tetrathiomolybdate for Wilson's Disease, Cancer, and Diseases of Inflammation and Fibrosis (2005)

Tetrathiomolybdate (TM) a copper-lowering drug, has efficacy in Wilson's disease, cancer, disease of neovascularization, and potential efficacy in diseases of inflammation and/or fibrosis. In Wilson's disease TM has been developed for initial therapy, the first two to four months of treatment, to quickly and safely gain control of copper toxicity. TM is efficacious in cancer and other diseases of angiogenesis because it has antiangiogenic effects on a number of angiogenic cytokines and promoters. TM also inhibits fibrotic and inflammatory cytokines, and is effective in a number of animal models of inflammation and fibrosis.
Expeditious and Solvent‐Free Nickel‐Catalyzed C−H Arylation of Arenes and Indoles (2017)

An efficient solvent-free nickel-catalyzed method for C-H bond arylation of arenes and indoles has been developed, which proceeds expeditiously through chelation assistance. The reaction is highly selective for mono-arylation and tolerates sensitive and structurally diverse functionalities, such as halides, ethers, amines, indole, pyrrole and carbazole. This reaction represents the first example of a nickel-catalyzed C-H arylation by monochelate assistance and symbolizes a rare precedent in solvent-free C-H arylation. Mechanistic investigations by various controlled reactions, kinetic studies, and deuterium labeling experiments suggest that the arylation follows a single electron transfer (SET) pathway involving the turnover-limiting C-H nickelation process.
Polarization of fluorescence of N�z(B��z<sub>u</sub>). Alignment of molecules via photoionization (1979)

For the case of photoionization, the degree of alignment of an excited molecular ion can be related to the photoionization dynamics in a direct way. Such a measurement has been performed, using radiation from the Synchrotron Ultraviolet Radiation Facility II (SURF II) as an excitation source.

Muscle Forces and Pronation Stabilize the Lateral Ligament Deficient Elbow (2001)

The influence of muscle activity and forearm position on the stability of the lateral collateral ligament deficient elbow was investigated in vitro, using a custom testing apparatus to simulate active and passive elbow flexion. Rotation of the ulna relative to the humerus was measured before and after sectioning of the joint capsule, and the radial and lateral ulnar collateral ligaments from the lateral epicondyle. Gross instability was present after lateral collateral ligament transection during passive elbow flexion with the arm in the varus orientation. In the vertical orientation during passive elbow flexion, stability of the lateral collateral ligament deficient elbow was similar to the intact elbow with the forearm held in pronation, but not similar to the intact elbow when maintained in supination. This instability with the forearm supinated was reduced significantly when simulated active flexion was done. The stabilizing effect of muscle activity suggests physical therapy of the lateral collateral ligament deficient elbow should focus on active rather than passive mobilization, while avoiding shoulder abduction to minimize varus elbow stress. Passive mobilization should be done with the forearm maintained in pronation.
REDUCTION (FSR) PACING LEADS IN THE RIGHT ATRIUM (2015)

Objectives: The efficacy of the Far-Field Signal Reduction (FSR) leads, based on optimization of the tip-to-ring electrode spacing and surface areas, has been demonstrated by chronic animal studies and acute human testing. This study, for the first time, was designed to evaluate the chronic sensing and pacing performance of FSR leads on pacemaker patients. Methods: 60 patients were randomized to either a FSR lead or a standard pacing lead (SJM Tendril1688T) at implant with a dual chamber SJM Identity™ or ADx pacemaker. The majority of the right atrial leads were placed at the RAA. Standard pacing/sensing measurements and a far field signal sensing threshold testing were conducted for each patient at implant, prior to hospital discharge, and at 10-day, 40-day, and 90-day post implant follow-up, respectively. Results: There are no adverse events during the entire study. On the average of the 90 day follow up, about 74% of the FSR patients versus 41% of the control group demonstrated a far field R-wave signal below 0.1 mV. The mean bipolar pacing threshold, P-wave amplitude, and impedance of FSR leads at 90-day post implant were 2.4mV, 0.6V, and 403Ω, respectively. Conclusions: The FSR leads in the right atrium of standard pacemaker patients performed safely achieving a significant far field signal reduction throughout the 90 day follow up. The FSR leads' overall sensing and pacing performance was satisfactory.
PolyDNN: Polynomial Representation of NN for Communication-less SMPC\n Inference (2021)

The structure and weights of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) typically encode and\ncontain very valuable information about the dataset that was used to train the\nnetwork.\n One way to protect this information when DNN is published is to perform an\ninterference of the network using secure multi-party computations (MPC).\n In this paper, we suggest a translation of deep neural networks to\npolynomials, which are easier to calculate efficiently with MPC techniques.\n We show a way to translate complete networks into a single polynomial and how\nto calculate the polynomial with an efficient and information-secure MPC\nalgorithm.\n The calculation is done without intermediate communication between the\nparticipating parties, which is beneficial in several cases, as explained in\nthe paper.\n
Characterization of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4spinel electrode in the presence of 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene as additive (2014)

The addition of 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene to the electrolyte led to improved capacity retention of a LiNi<sub>0.5</sub>Mn<sub>1.5</sub>O<sub>4</sub>cathode when cycled between 3.5 and 5.0 V (<italic>vs.</italic>Li<sup>+</sup>/Li).
CdS microcrystallites-doped thin-film glass waveguides (1988)

Thin films of Corning 7059, glass doped with CdS (2%–4% by weight) microcrystallites, with diameters presumably larger than 6 nm, were fabricated using rf sputtering technique. Sharp optical cutoff near 500 nm is visible on the absorption spectra of the films. Both Raman and absorption spectra presumably reveal the presence of size effects. At λ=632.8 nm the refractive index of the films varies from 1.55 to 1.69 depending on rf power. Propagation losses for TE0 guided mode are about 10 dB/cm.
Decentralized Nonlinear Stabilizing Control Using (2002)

This paper describes a nonlinear stabilizing control scheme for generator and simulator test results to verify effects of the proposed control system on improvement of power system stability. In order to improve the stability in wide rage operating condition, nonlinear control schemes for generators have been proposed (1) (2) (3). The authors have confirmed the effect of nonlinear controller by a digital simulation. Then, the generator control system was designed using an exact linearization approach toward one machine-infinite bus model, and the use of digital signal processor (DSP) as an external controller enables to realize nonlinear control block diagram by software. Furthermore to evaluate the dynamic performance of this controller for nonlinear operating points, simulator tests were performed using real-time digital simulator (RTDS) . The effect of the nonlinear control was compared with the effect of (ΔP+Δ ω) input type conventional linear PSS.
The Science Enjoyed by Professor Alec T. Stewart (2017)

Late Professor Stewart initiated and shaped the International Conference on Positron Annihilation (ICPA) series. As a first-generation experimental positron-annihilation scientist, he made full use of the angular correlation of annihilation radiation (ACAR) method. He applied this method to study Fermi surfaces of metals, positron wave-functions in crystals, positron-electron and -phonon many-body interactions, and the vacancy formation energy in solids. He also studied with this method positronium in liquids and solids (T. Hyodo, J. Phys. Conf. Series, 618 (2015) 012002). All these studies enjoyed by Professor Stewart will long be remembered by the positron study community.
Automatic switching between noise classification and speech enhancement for hearing aid devices (2016)

This paper presents a voice activity detector (VAD) for automatic switching between a noise classifier and a speech enhancer as part of the signal processing pipeline of hearing aid devices. The developed VAD consists of a computationally efficient feature extractor and a random forest classifier. Previously used signal features as well as two newly introduced signal features are extracted and fed into the classifier to perform automatic switching. This switching approach is compared to two popular VADs. The results obtained indicate the introduced approach outperforms these existing approaches in terms of both detection rate and processing time.
Nonlinear-optical spectral transformation of few-cycle laser pulses in photonic-crystal fibers (2005)

Photonic-crystal fibers with special dispersion profiles are shown to provide a high efficiency of spectral transformation of chirped sub-6-fs Ti:sapphire laser pulses. With the wavelength of zero group-velocity dispersion of the fiber lying within the broad spectrum of the input few-cycle pulse, the output spectra feature well-resolved spectral peaks, indicative of soliton self-frequency shift, four-wave mixing, and Cherenkov emission of dispersive waves. We demonstrate that up to 3% of radiation energy at the output of the fiber can be confined within a spectrally isolated soliton peak centered at , which is ideally suited as a seed for Nd:YAG- and ytterbium-based laser devices.
The effects of spatial frequency on the accommodation responses of myopes and emmetropes under various detection demands (2015)

The dependence of spatial frequency on accommodation has been investigated extensively. Recently, differences between myopes and emmetropes with respect to accommodative microfluctuations for high spatial frequency targets have been reported. Considering the diversity of accommodative responses (ARs) to sinusoidal gratings among subjects, this experiment was designed to analyze the contrast dependence of ARs to targets with various spatial frequencies (SFs). Here, we continuously measured ARs, microfluctuations, and pupil diameter while emmetropic and myopic adult subjects fixated on sinusoidal grating targets of various SFs under standard and near-detection threshold contrast conditions. We first evaluated the detection contrast thresholds at six SFs (2-16 cpd) using a near-contrast sensitivity function test that simulated the CSV-1000 test with a tablet computer. We found no difference in contrast threshold between emmetropes and myopes. We then measured the dynamic ARs to 24 grating targets: six SFs and four contrasts (standard, detection threshold, subthreshold and suprathreshold) were recorded for 30s. Under standard contrast conditions, we observed a decrease in AR with increasing spatial frequency. Variations in pupil diameter and accommodation were the smallest at 6 cpd. Both the ARs and microfluctuations were higher under near-threshold contrast conditions than under standard contrast conditions, and no variations were found across SFs under near-threshold contrast conditions. No differences in ARs or microfluctuations were found between the two refractive groups at any spatial frequency. These findings provided detailed information on accommodative behavior to spatial frequency targets under normal and high-detection demand conditions.
<title>Implantable biosensors: analysis of fluorescent light propagation through skin</title> (2001)

Progress towards a painless and hygienic glucose monitoring procedure for diabetics continues as the growth of diabetes mellitus reaches epidemic proportions in the American population. Utilizing an implantable fluorescence based glucose assay, the minimally invasive approach presented here has previously shown promise towards this goal in terms of glucose specificity and quantification for in vitro environments. However, in realistic physiological circumstances the depth of the implant can vary and optical properties of skin can change due to normal physiological conditions. Additionally, naturally occurring auto-fluorescence can obscure the sensor signal. An important concern under these conditions is that variations of fluorescent intensity due to these or other causes might be mistaken for glucose concentration fluctuations. New data shows that fluorescence-based glucose assays can be probed and interpreted in terms of glucose concentrations through pig skin at depths of up to 700 mm when immobilized in a bio-compatible polymer. When a combination of two fluorophores are employed as demonstrated here, reasonable changes in skin thickness and the confounding effects of the variations inherent in skin can be overcome for this glucose sensing application.
Identification and Characterization of Transition Zones in Tight Carbonatesby Downhole Fluid Analysis (2006)

In tight carbonate reservoirs, several factors make it difficult to estimate reserves in transition zones. In particular, underestimation of reserves sometimes occurs because the formation oil can be more mobile than expected. The measurement of mobility of the different phases throughout the transition zone, which is affected significantly by complex rock heterogeneity, can only be accomplished by selective flow measurements. To use openhole sampling tools for these flow measurements, it is essential to differentiate between water-base mud (WBM) filtrate and connate water thereby avoiding any negative impact on the oil initially in place (OIIP) calculation and on development decisions. In principle, pressure gradients from traditional open-hole point pressure measurements should help define accurate fluid gradients and contacts. However this procedure is inadequate to identify and characterize the transition zones. Supercharging, capillary effects, changing wettability and saturations, and pressure variations from production and/or injection effects all play a role in complicating interpretation of the pressure measurement data. In addition, gauge effects, depth errors, formation thicknesses and fluid density contrasts yield potentially large uncertainties in interpretation of gradient data.Downhole pH measurement, embodied within Downhole Fluid Analysis (DFA) procedure, has dramatically improved the situation. Downhole pH measurements utilizing robust pH dyes, the principle behind Litmus paper, have been successfully utilized in differentiating between WBM filtrate and formation water. The downhole fluid analyzers LFA* and CFA* successfully helped determine the level of the anticipated water cut, oil compositions and gravity, and GOR throughout the transition zone allowing a more reliable estimation of hydrocarbon in place and better well placement and production strategies. This process yields considerable cost savings especially by avoiding expensive production tests.
GEOSS as a Service Oriented Enterprise Coordinating Resources Through Service Interfaces (2006)

GEOSS will enable Earth Science that is comprehensive, coordinated and sustainable. Many Earth Observation (EO) resources have been created, and are available to the global community, in order to support scientists, decision makers, and the general populace. The key to realizing a successful GEOSS is to provide mechanisms that enable those resources to be shared and coordinated. By looking at the Earth Observation community as a global enterprise, and at GEOSS as an infrastructure supporting that enterprise, the best practices for architecting enterprise-level solutions can be applied in order to define an approach for the GEOSS environment. One possible approach to GEOSS is to consider it a Service Oriented Enterprise. This paper will leverage industry efforts to define the use and demands of Service Interfaces as they support Decision Support Systems within the maturing GEOSS context. It will also discuss the applicable experiences of ECHO, an enterprise-level Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) supporting the Earth Science community.
Guided modes in uniaxial slab waveguides (1986)

Rapidly expanding interest in the use of integrated optical waveguide circuits has revealed a lack of understanding of the optical propagation characteristics in waveguides fabricated in practical birefringent materials. The relative simplicity of guided modes in isotropic waveguides is primarily due to the decoupling of the TE and TM modes. In general, such decoupling does not exist in anisotropic structures. Even though the range of values of the propagation constants for leaky and sustained guided modes as a function of the optic axis orientation is easily determined, the accurate values of propagation constants are not.
Dynamic and quantitative assessment of myocardial stiffness using Shear Wave Imaging (2010)

Shear Wave Imaging was used to assess the myocardial stiffness in Langendorff perfused rat heart. This technique was used to quantify the myocardial stiffness and its dynamics over the cardiac cycle. This method is based on the generation of a shear wave (typically in the kHz range) that propagates in soft tissues at a velocity of a few meters per second that is linked to the tissue stiffness. The acquisition of the shear wave propagation was performed in less than 10 ms, enabling the possibility to follow dynamically the variation of the myocardial stiffness during the cardiac cycle. The feasibility of imaging the myocardial elasticity was demonstrated up to 15 times per cardiac cycle. The mean shear wave velocity was found to be 3.8 ± 0.6 m/s in the systolic phase and 1.1 ± 0.15 m/s in the diastolic phase when the probe was set in the long axis orientation.
Topochemistry Meets Supramolecular Chemistry: Opportunities for Targeted Organic Synthesis in Molecular Crystals (2021)

A milestone of crystal engineering has been the topochemical control of reactivity in the crystalline solid-state through the judicious usage of noncovalent interactions. Specifically, since the pioneering studies by Schmidt and co-workers who postulated the geometrical conditions of single crystals to act as a confined media for alkenes to undergo [2 + 2]-photocycloadditions, many recent supramolecular strategies have expanded and facilitated the topochemical control of reactivity. Supramolecular control of reactivity in confined crystalline media is exemplified using supramolecular templates or “shepherds”, that facilitate the positioning of alkenes into a suitable geometry for [2 + 2]-photocycloadditions. In this monograph, we explore selected examples of supramolecular templating of [2 + 2]-photocycloadditions within the last decade that rely on diverse supramolecular interactions. The advances in topochemical control of reactivity through supramolecular chemistry are expressed in the synthesis of unique yet varied cyclobutane-based organic architectures, which are important building blocks for pharmaceutics and high-dimensional complexes.
