The High Performance and Wide Area Analysis and Mining of Scientific & Engineering Data (2002)

This final report summarizes our accomplishments and findings and includes recent publications occurring in the final period of this award. One of our research goals was to develop algorithms and services for remote data analysis and distributed data mining which scaled from the commodity internet to high performance networks. When we began the project there was no effective mechanisms to achieve high end to end performance for data intensive applications over wide area, high bandwidth networks. For this reason, we developed algorithms and services for Layers 2,3, and 4 in the simple data web application stack below. We describe our research accomplishments for each of these layers in turn: Layer 4--Data Web Applications; Layer 3--Data Web Services; Layer 2--Network Protocol Services; Layer 1--IP.
Antibody Mass Escalation Study in Patients with Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Using <sup>111</sup>In-J591: Lesion Detectability and Dosimetric Projections for <sup>90</sup>Y Radioimmunotherapy (2008)

The proportion of the amount of antibody increased in lesions and decreased in the liver with increasing mass of administered antibody up to a dose of 50 mg. Proportional hepatic uptake continued to decrease with increasing antibody mass up to 100 mg. The optimal antibody mass for radioimmunotherapy would therefore appear to be greater than or equal to 50 mg.
Analysis of the Expression of <i>CLA1</i>, a Gene That Encodes the 1-Deoxyxylulose 5-Phosphate Synthase of the 2-<i>C</i>-Methyl-<scp>d</scp>-Erythritol-4-Phosphate Pathway in Arabidopsis (2000)

The discovery of the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-4-phosphate pathway for the biosynthesis of isoprenoids raises the important question of the nature and regulation of the enzymes involved in this pathway. CLA1, a gene previously isolated from Arabidopsis, encodes the first enzyme of the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-4-phosphate pathway, 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase. We demonstrate this enzyme activity by complementation of the cla1-1 mutant phenotype and by direct enzymatic assays. Based on mRNA and protein expression patterns this enzyme is expressed mainly in developing photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic tissues. The beta-glucuronidase expression pattern driven from the CLA1 gene regulatory region supports the northern and protein data while also showing that this gene has some level of expression in most tissues of the plant. A mutation in the CLA1 gene interferes with the normal development of chloroplasts and etioplasts, but does not seem to affect amyloplast structure. Microscopic analysis also shows a pleiotropic effect of the CLA1 gene mutation in mesophyll tissue formation.
Radiotherapy-Associated Anemia: The Scope of the Problem (2000)

The impact of anemia on cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy is well established, but only recently has the prevalence of anemia in patients receiving radiotherapy received much attention. Many cancer patients present with anemia prior to radiotherapy, and even more experience anemia or a worsening of anemia at some point during treatment. However, the problem of anemia is often ignored because patients may experience only functional anemia, defined as a hemoglobin level less than 12 g/dl. Unless physiologic anemia (hemoglobin = 8 g/dl) is discovered, efforts to correct anemia are often not made. Because hemoglobin levels <12 g/dl seem to be associated with tumor hypoxia and poorer outcomes of radiotherapy in a number of patient populations, ignoring even modest anemia can result in decreased locoregional control, overall survival, and quality of life (QOL). Because increasing hemoglobin levels 1-2 g/dl is usually easily accomplished, there exists the potential for improving outcomes by paying greater attention to this problem. This article focuses on the prevalence of anemia, particularly functional anemia, and discusses the impact of anemia on locoregional control, overall survival, and QOL.
ML Method at Subarray Level with Low Calibration Cost (2006)

Most of super-resolution direction finding methods presented until now are based on the element outputs of the array. 2-D subarray level super-resolution direction finding method has an important application in phased array radars. We study ML (maximum likelihood) method at subarray level for coherent signal sources and propose the corresponding signal model. Two kinds of array manifold are introduced which are denoted as TAM (true array manifold) and DSAM (direct simplified array manifold) respectively. ML method at subarray level based on TAM has to calibrate the whole array while the method based on DSAM only needs to determine the phase centers and gains accurately. Method based on DSAM can reduce the array calibration cost largely, but the available direction finding range is 3 dB bandwidth of subarray centered at the look direction. We can estimate direction in any possible space range with beam scanning and reduce computation cost of the multi-dimensional search of ML. Simulation results express the validity of the proposed methods
Deformable 4DCT Lung Registration with Vessel Bifurcations (2007)

In radiotherapy planning of lung cancer, breathing motion causes uncertainty in the determination of the target volume. Image r egistration makes it possible to get information about the deformation of the lung and t he tumor movement in the respiratory cycle from a few images. A dedicated, a utomatic, landmark-based technique was developed that finds corresponding vessel bifur cations. Hereby, we developed criteria to characterize pronounced bifurcations for which correspondence finding was more stable and accurate. The bifurcations were ext racted from automatically segmented vessel trees in maximum inhale and maximum exhale CT thorax data sets. To find corresponding bifurcations in both data set s we used the shape context approach of Belongie et al . Finally, a volumetric lung deformation was obtain ed using thin-plate spline interpolation and affine registration. The m ethod is evaluated on 10 4D-CT data sets of patients with lung cancer.
Lateral alumina templates for carbon nanotubes and semiconductor nanowires synthesis (2005)

We present here, a novel approach for the membrane-based synthesis, also called template synthesis of arrays of nanomaterials with monodispersed geometrical features. The basic principle is to grow or generate the desired material inside the pores of a nanoporous alumina membrane. The pores of are synthesised parallel to the surface of the substrate by performing the anodic oxidation of an aluminium thin film laterally, i.e. parallel to the surface of the substrate, instead of perpendicular as usually done. We obtain highly regular and ordered pore arrays, with a minimum pore size in the range of ~3 to 4 nm, which to the best of our knowledge is the smallest reported to date for anodic alumina membranes. After anodic oxidation, the pores of the lateral alumina membranes have been electrochemically “filled” with Te nanowires. Such porous alumina structures may allow to control the in-plane organisation of arrays of template-grown nanowires and carbon nanotubes for reproducible device fabrication.

This nutritional supplement increased innate immunity and protection against infections in elderly people.
A Novel Approach to Realizing SSB Modulation With Optimum Optical Carrier to Sideband Ratio (2013)

A novel approach to realizing single sideband (SSB) modulation with optical carrier to sideband ratio (OCSR) of 0 dB, which is optimum for maximizing the transmission performance of a radio-over-fiber system, is proposed and experimentally demonstrated based on a strong optical injection-locked distributed feedback (DFB) laser. Tunable OCSR with optimum value of 0 dB is achieved by tuning the injection ratio and the detuning frequency precisely. A simulation is carried out to confirm the optimum OCSR. Gain properties of the DFB laser under strong optical injection are also measured for the first time to our knowledge. Doubled frequency of the LO signal is obtained without any filter. The generated optical SSB signal of 20 GHz is transmitted over 60-km single-mode fiber experimentally; results show it is almost not affected by the fiber chromatic dispersion.
Passive cascaded lattice digital filters (1980)

Energy and power analogies are used for the analysis of cascaded (possibly time-varying) lattice digital filters. This approach leads to the requirements for passivity of the sections, and a procedure for the removal of zero-input parasitic oscillations, along with several other results.
Grating coupler integrated photodiodes for plasmon resonance based sensing (2010)

In this work, we demonstrate an integrated sensor combining a grating-coupled plasmon resonance surface with a planar photodiode. Plasmon enhanced transmission is employed as a sensitive refractive index (RI) sensing mechanism. Enhanced transmission of light is monitored via the integrated photodiode by tuning the angle of incidence of a collimated beam near the sharp plasmon resonance condition. Slight changes of the effective refractive index (RI) shift the resonance angle, resulting in a change in the photocurrent. Owing to the planar sensing mechanism, the design permits a high areal density of sensing spots. In the design, absence of holes that facilitate resonant transmission of light, allows an easy-to-implement fabrication procedure and relative insensitivity to fabrication errors. Theoretical and experimental results agree well. An equivalent long-term RI noise of 6.3 × 10(-6) RIU/√Hz is obtained by using an 8 mW He-Ne laser, compared to a shot-noise limited theoretical sensitivity of 5.61 × 10(-9) RIU/√Hz. The device features full benefits of grating-coupled plasmon resonance, such as enhancement of sensitivity for non-zero azimuthal angle of incidence. Further sensitivity enhancement using balanced detection and optimal plasmon coupling conditions are discussed.
Two-fluid flow in sedimentary rock: simulation, transport and complexity (1997)

The macroscopic properties and structure of the flow of two immiscible fluids through Fontainebleau sandstone are studied by numerical simulation. The pore space geometry was obtained by X-ray microtomography (Kinney et al . 1993) and the numerical simulations were performed by a new lattice-gas cellular automaton method (Olson & Rothman 1995). We first validate the numerical method by showing that the drag on a cubic array of spherical drops matches theoretical predictions. As a further test, we present a comparison between computed relative permeability and experimental measurements on the same rock. We then present a study of fluid–fluid coupling; we find that it is significant, and that it appears to be reciprocal: the flux of one fluid due to forcing on the other is the same, regardless of which fluid is forced. Lastly, we characterize the complexity and organization of the flow by means of a statistical parameter, the skewness of the distribution of local velocities.
Investigations of different granule types occurring in an aerobic granular sludge operating for phorphorus removal (2008)

White lupin is a promising high-protein crop, the cultivation of which is limited by a lack of adaptation to soils that are even just mildly calcareous. This study aimed to assess the phenotypic variation, the trait architecture based on a GWAS, and the predictive ability of genome-enabled models for grain yield and contributing traits of a genetically-broad population of 140 lines grown in an autumn-sown environment of Greece (Larissa) and a spring-sown environment of the Netherlands (Ens) that featured moderately calcareous and alkaline soils. We found large genotype × environment interaction and modest or nil genetic correlation for line responses across locations for grain yield, a lime susceptibility score, and other traits, with the exception of individual seed weight and plant height. The GWAS identified significant SNP markers associated with various traits that were markedly inconsistent across locations, while providing direct or indirect evidence for widespread polygenic trait control. Genomic selection proved to be a feasible strategy, owing to a moderate predictive ability for yield and lime susceptibility in Larissa (the site featuring greater lime soil stress). Other supporting results for breeding programs where the identification of a candidate gene for lime tolerance and the high reliability of genome-enabled predictions for individual seed weight.
Proportional resonant individual pitch control for mitigation of wind turbines loads (2013)

This study addresses the mitigation of wind turbine loads and fatigue such as blade bending moments, tilt and yaw moments etc. Currently, the wind turbine blades are normally controlled to turn collectively to limit the excess of wind power above rated wind speed conditions without any load attenuation. The individual pitch control (IPC) is a promising way to reduce the wind turbine loads. This study presents a proportional resonant (PR) IPC, which does not need the measurement of blade azimuth angle and multiple complex Coleman transformations between rotational coordinate frame and stationary coordinate frame. The new strategy can attenuate the 1 p and higher harmonics on the wind turbine blades as well as 3 p on the hub without any filters. The wind turbine code fatigue, aerodynamics, structures and turbulence is applied to a doubly fed induction generator‐based wind power generation system. The simulations are performed on the National Renewable Energy Laboratory 1.5 MW upwind reference wind turbine model. The simulation results are presented and discussed to demonstrate the capability and effectiveness of the proposed PR IPC method.
From Images to Surfaces (1981)

The projection of light rays onto the retina of the eye forms a two-dimensional image, but through combining the stereoscopic aspect of vision with other optical clues by means of some remarkably effective image-processing procedures, the viewer is able to perceive three-dimensional representations of scenes. From Images to Surfaces proposes and examines a specific image-processing procedure to account for this remarkable effect-a computational approach that provides a framework for understanding the transformation of a set of images into a representation of the shapes of surfaces visible in a scene. Although much of the analysis is applicable to any visual information processing system-biological or artificial-Grimson constrains his final choice of computational algorithms to those that are biologically feasible and consistent with what is known about the human visual system. In order to clarify the analysis, the approach distinguishes three independent levels: the computational theory itself, the algorithms employed, and the underlying implementation of the computation, in this case through the human neural mechanisms. This separation into levels facilitates the generation of specific models from general concepts. This research effort had its origin in a theory of human stereo vision recently developed by David Marr and Tomaso Poggio. Grimson presents a computer implementation of this theory that serves to test its adequacy and provide feedback for the identification of unsuspected problems embedded in it. The author then proceeds to apply and extend the theory in his analysis of surface interpolation through the computational methodology. This methodology allows the activity of the human early visual system to be followed through several stages: the Primal Sketch, in which intensity changes at isolated points on a surface are noted; the Raw 2.5-D Sketch, in which surface values at these points are computed; and the Full 2.5-D Sketch, in which these values—ncluding stereo and motion perception—are interpolated over the entire surface. These stages lead to the final 3-D Model, in which the three-dimensional shapes of objects, in object-centered coordinates, are made explicit.
Spurious Harmonic Generation in Optical Heterodyning (1963)

An experiment is described in which the simultaneous photodetection of two incoherent light beams chopped at different frequencies yields a direct measurement of the cross-modulation coefficient of a photocathode. This is a technique generally applicable to the measurement of small nonlinearities in photodetectors.
Infrared Spectra of Dilute Solid Solutions (1962)

The infrared spectra of polyatomic ions in dilute solid solution reflect interactions of the vibrational modes with the lattice environment. The spectra are usually characterized by very narrow bandwidths, and by frequency shifts and changes in absorption intensities which depend upon the host lattice. We have examined the spectra of a number of ions in solid solution in alkali halides. From this data, conclusions have been drawn relative to the symmetries of the ions and the lattice sites which they occupy. The ultimate goal is the use of complex ions as ``probes'' to yield information on crystal lattices. Certain of the ions produced in fused alkali halides are characteristic of chemical equilibria at high temperatures, and have not previously been studied. We have identified several impurities found in the spectra of single crystals from commercial sources. The infrared absorption offers the possibility of determining the types and concentrations of trace impurities in single crystals.

Time interval measurements using integrated tapped CMOS delay lines (2003)

An integrated seven bit time-to-digital converter (TDC) based on tapped CMOS delay lines was designed and tested. Its single-shot resolution is about 700 ps, and the ultimate resolution of averaged results is 50-100 ps. The linearity and gain of the converter are markedly dependent on the layout and ambient conditions.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Development of a Neural Network Library for Resource Constrained Speech Synthesis (2020)

Machine learning frameworks, like Tensorflow and PyTorch, use GPU hardware acceleration to deliver the needed performance. Since GPUs require a lot of power (and space) to operate, typical use cases involve high-performance servers, with the final deployment available as a cloud service. To address limitations of this approach, AI Accelerators have been proposed. In this context, we have designed and implemented a library of neural network algorithms, to efficiently run on “edge devices”, with AI Accelerators. Moreover, a unified interface has been provided, to allow easy experimentation with various neural networks applied to the same dataset. Here, let us stress that we do not propose new algorithms, but port known ones to, resource restricted, edge devices. The context is provided by a speech synthesis application for edge devices that is deployed on an NVIDIA Jetson Nano. This application is to be used by social robots for real-time off-cloud text-to-speech processing.
Care of immunocompromised patients in hospital (2009)

Infection presents a significant risk for immunocompromised patients. To reduce this risk, various precautions can be implemented and these may affect patients' quality of life. Such precautions are controversial, with varying practices being adopted by different hospitals. This article aims to enhance nurses' knowledge about the current evidence on the interventions designed to reduce the rate of infection in immunocompromised patients who are in hospital.
Regulation of Angiotensin II Receptor Subtypes During Atrial Fibrillation in Humans (2000)

AF is associated with the down-regulation of atrial AT(1)-R and the up-regulation of AT(2)-R proteins. These findings may help define the pathophysiological role of the angiotensin system in the structural remodeling of the fibrillating atria.
An agile hypertext design methodology (2007)

Customers are driving down lead times for software, especially for Web applications, to only a few months. While a number of hypertext design models exist, they do not address the issue of the requirements and analysis process that normally feeds the design process. In this paper we present an agile approach to developing hypertext applications, which focuses on the requirements and analysis stages, something that is largely ignored in current methodologies.
[New approaches to the diagnosis of carbohydrate metabolic disorders]. (1993)

A bioenergetic conception of insulin-independent diabetes mellitus (IIDM) is put forward. Molecular mechanisms of carbohydrate and fat metabolism are discussed which result in a vicious regulatory cycle to provoke a transition to stable pathology. Previously unknown role of human saliva in oral cavity in this regulatory cycle is revealed. New diagnostic tests are developed on the basis of the conception on IIDM pathogenesis. The results of clinical trials are presented which have been obtained during population screening.
