CSI-Based Device-Free Wireless Localization and Activity Recognition Using Radio Image Features (2017)

Device-free wireless localization and activity recognition is an emerging technique, which could estimate the location and activity of a person without equipping him/her with any device. It deduces the state of a person by analyzing his/her influence on surrounding wireless signals. Therefore, how to characterize the influence of human behaviors is the key question. In this paper, we explore and exploit a radio image processing approach to better characterize the influence of human behaviors on Wi-Fi signals. Traditional methods deal with channel state information (CSI) measurements on each channel independently. However, CSI measurements on different channels are correlated, and thus lots of useful information involved with channel correlation may be lost. This motivates us to look on CSI measurements from multiple channels as a radio image and deal with it from the two-dimensional perspective. Specifically, we transform CSI measurements from multiple channels into a radio image, extract color and texture features from the radio image, adopt a deep learning network to learn optimized deep features from image features, and estimate the location and activity of a person using a machine learning approach. Benefits from the informative and discriminative deep image features and experimental results in two clutter laboratories confirm the excellent performance of the proposed system.

A study of energetics of cooperative interaction using a mutant λ-repressor (2000)

A lambda-repressor mutant, S228N, which is defective in tetramer formation in the free state but retains full cooperativity, was studied in detail. Isolated single operator-bound S228N repressor shows association properties similar to those of the wild-type repressor. Fluorescence anisotropy studies with dansyl chloride-labeled repressor show a dimer-monomer dissociation constant of around 10(-5) M. The structure of the mutant repressor was studied by circular dichroism, acrylamide quenching and sulfhydryl reactivity at protein concentrations of < or =10(-6) M, where it is predominantly monomeric. The results suggest no significant perturbations in the structure of the S228N mutant repressor from that of the wild-type repressor. Urea denaturation studies also indicate no significant change in the stability of the repressor. The results were used to calculate energetics of loop formation in the cooperative binding process.
Preliminary results with the use of an albumin-glutaraldehyde tissue adhesive in lung surgery. (2003)

The use of BioGlue proved to be safe and effective in the sealing of lung lacerations and in preventing air leakage from suture or staple lines in emphysematous lungs. It was also successful in sealing bronchopleural fistulas when applied either intra-bronchially through the rigid bronchoscope or during thoracotomy.
Colorimetric micro-determination of titanium dioxide in foods. (1990)

A colorimetric procedure for the micro-determination of titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been developed. The method incorporates wet-ashing and color development using dianti pyrylmethane. The yellow-to-orange color is quite stable. Interference from Fe3+ ion could be removed in the presence of ascorbic acid. More than 90% of TiO2 spiked at the 10 and 100 μg/g levels were recvered from cheese and white chocolate. The proposed method is rapid, simple and accurate. The minimum level for determination of TiO2 was 5μg/g when 2g of sample was assayed.
Reliable Evaluation of Dynamic Ground Properties from Cross-hole Seismic Test using Spying-loaded Lateral Impact Source (2006)

지반의 동적 변형 특성인 전단파 속도<TEX>$(V_s)$</TEX>, 압축파 속도<TEX>$(V_p)$</TEX>, 그리고 그에 따른 포아송 비(v)는 내진 설계나 내진 성능 평가 외에도 구조물의 거동 평가에 필요한 매우 중요한 지반 정수이다. 지난 수십 년 동안 이러한 지반 정수를 효율적이고 정밀하게 측정하기 위하여, 여러 가지 공내 탄성파 시험 기법들이 개발 및 적용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 가장 신뢰성이 높은 현장 탄성파 기법인 크로스홀 탄성파 시험을 지반 동적 물성 획득 기법으로 선정하였다. 지하수위 존재 여부에 관계 없이 토사뿐만 아니라 암반을 대상으로 크로스홀 시험을 성공적으로 수행할 수 있도록, 연직 시추공 안에서 지반을 대상으로 횡방향 가진이 가능한 스프링식 발진 장치를 개발하고, 두 곳의 기존 항만 부두 부지와 신규 LNG 저장 시설 두 부지로 구성된 국내 세 지역을 대상으로 크로스홀 탄성파 시험을 실시하였다. 대상 부지에서의 개발 발진 장치 적용을 통한 크로스홀 시험으로부터 지표 부근 토사부터 하부 공학적 기반암 및 지진학적 기반암으로 구성된 암반까지의 깊이별 <TEX>$V_s,\;V_p$</TEX> 및 v와 같은 지반 동적 특성을 매우 효율적으로 결정하였으며, 적용 대상 시설물인 기존 항만 부두 시설물의 내진 성능 평가 그리고 신규 LNG 저장 시설물의 내진 설계를 위한 근본 자료로 제시하였다. Soil and rock dynamic properties such as shear wave velocity <TEX>$(V_s)$</TEX>, compressional wave velocity <TEX>$(V_p)$</TEX> and corresponding Poisson's ratio (v) are very important geotechnical parameters in predicting deformational behavior of structures as well as practicing seismic design and performance evaluation. In an effort to measure the parameter efficiently and accurately, various bore-hole seismic testing techniques have been, thus, developed and used during past several decades. In this study, cross-hole seismic testing technique which is known as the most reliable seismic method was adopted for obtaining geotechnical dynamic properties. To perform successfully the cross-hole test for rock as well as soil layers regardless of the ground water level, spring-loaded source which impact laterally a subsurface ground in vertical bore-hole was developed and applied at three study areas, which contain four sites composed of two existing port sites and two new LNG storage facility sites. The geotechnical dynamic properties such as <TEX>$V_s,\;V_p$</TEX> and v with depth from the soil surface to the engineering and seismic bedrock were efficiently determined from the laterally impacted cross-hole seismic tests at study sites, and were provided as the fundamental parameters for the seismic performance evaluation of the existing ports and the seismic design of the LNG storage facilities.
Epidemiology and Investigation of Melioidosis, Southern Arizona (2011)

Burkholderia pseudomallei is a bacterium endemic to Southeast Asia and northern Australia, but it has not been found to occur endemically in the United States. We report an ostensibly autochthonous case of melioidosis in the United States. Despite an extensive investigation, the source of exposure was not identified.
<scp>CCRL</scp>2, a fringe member of the atypical chemoattractant receptor family (2013)

The term atypical chemoattractant receptors is generally used to refer to a subset of G-protein-coupled receptors devoid of chemotactic activity and characterized by the ability to scavenge chemotactic factors from the inflammatory milieu. However, emerging evidence suggests that this class of receptors is heterogeneous in function. In this Viewpoint, we discuss the properties of CCRL2, a molecule devoid of ligand scavenging functions and suggested to regulate leukocyte recruitment by alternative mechanisms.
Application performance monitoring and prediction (2013)

This research paper demonstrates the development of methodologies for application monitoring and continuous performance assurance. The proposed approach is derived from the classical continuous improvement concept e.g. PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, which has been adapted to most of the real industrial and production environments. The approach consists of four phases : Monitor, Analysis, Recommendations and Action (MARA); these phases are summarized into two segmented information panel viz. Application Health Dashboards and Corrective Action Dashboard. It allows customizing the dashboard as per the level of visibility required in order to improve the monitoring process. This paper also includes a case study of monitoring the application performance in live environment. The case study discussed in the paper shows the application of basic principles for continuous performance improvement while deploying APM solution for monitoring and prediction of performance trends. The proposed approach lifts the possibility to apply this methodology to wide scale of enterprises applications for domains such as Telecom, Banking, Insurance, Ecommerce, Healthcare etc and most importantly to the mission critical enterprise applications, which actually have direct impact on organization's potential to drive business revenue. Finally the results demonstrate the benefits obtained by the implementation of the proposed methodology, as it helps IT organizations cut cost, reduce risk and achieve business goals.

Kaffe was ported to ARM7/uClinux which was popular embedded platform in this paper, and "Java runtime environment" was built to support executing Java applications. According to characteristics of ARM7 such as the length of instructions and data types, the interpreter core and the data structure of Kaffe were modified, which made ARM7 with the revised Kaffe can access Memory and solve the problem which came from the MMU-Less in the system, and provided technical method for porting Kaffe to other system platforms which was MMU-Less. Finally, make used of test tool set to test the completed system, and the test result did not only verify the system's availability, but also provided the reference for the designer of embedded system to choose Java virtual machine.
Efficacy of STEADFAST® EQUINE joint supplement in a chemically‐induced osteoarthritis rat model (2010)

The efficacy of STEADFAST® EQUINE joint supplement (SFE) was evaluated in a monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)‐induced osteoarthritis (OA) rat model. SFE is a proprietary blend of natural eggshell membrane, chelated trace minerals and antioxidant vitamins. Seventy‐two male Wistar rats were fed either: 1) rat AIN‐93M diet, 2) As 1+ 1% SFE, or 3) As 1+ 2% SFE (n=24/trt). Rats were fed for 28 d prior to MIA injection, and treatments continued until tissue collection. Injections of MIA (0.6 mg) were administered in the right knee joints at d 0. Changes in hind paw weight distribution (HPWD) and inflammation between the arthritic and contra‐lateral control limb were used to assess joint discomfort at d 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 56 post‐MIA injection. Serum biomarkers (PIIANP & CTX‐II) were collected d 7, 14, 28 and 56 post‐injection. Relative to the other treatments, rats fed 2% SFE were able to bear significantly more weight on their arthritic limb on d 14 post ‐MIA injection (P <0.05). Inflammation and HPWD were numerically lower than control at all but one time point. C‐teleopeptide crosslinks type II cartilage (CTXII), a marker of cartilage degradation, was decreased in rats fed 2% SFE at d 7, 14 and 28 (P<0.05) & decreased in rats fed 1% SFE d 28 (P<0.05) relative to control. Thus, our study suggests SFE may reduce pain and decrease cartilage loss in a rat model of OA. STEADFAST® is a trademark of Novus Nutrition Brands, LLC.
The doping process and dopant characteristics of GaN (2002)

The characteristic effects of doping with impurities such as Si, Ge, Se, O, Mg, Be, and Zn on the electrical and optical properties of GaN-based materials are reviewed. In addition, the roles of unintentionally introduced impurities, such as C, H, and O, and grown-in defects, such as vacancy and antisite point defects, are also discussed. The doping process during epitaxial growth of GaN, AlGaN, InGaN, and their superlattice structures is described. Doping using the diffusion process and ion implantation techniques is also discussed. A p-n junction formed by Si implantation into p-type GaN is successfully fabricated. The results on crystal structure, electrical resistivity, carrier mobility, and optical spectra obtained by means of x-rays, low-temperature Hall measurements, and photoluminescence are also discussed.
First nodal OBS acquisition from the Thunder Horse Field in the deep water of the Gulf of Mexico (2004)

We describe an experimental four‐component (4C) nodal ocean‐bottom seismic (OBS) survey that was conducted in 2001 at Thunder Horse field in the deep water of the Gulf of Mexico. At a water depth of 6000 ft, this is to our knowledge the deepest‐water OBS survey shot by industry to date. The goal of this survey was to investigate the technical feasibility of deep‐water OBS surveys, which hold the promise of improved imaging due to the wide‐azimuth nature of the data. We present the results from prestack depth migration of these OBS data and compare them to an image computed from towed‐streamer data. The results lead us to conclude that deep water OBS is feasible and may be a powerful technology for future deep‐water imaging projects.
Efficacy and safety of intravenous iron sucrose in treating adults with iron deficiency anemia (2011)

Our data confirm that the use of intravenous iron sucrose is a safe and effective option in the treatment of adult patients with iron deficiency anemia who lack satisfactory response to oral iron therapy. Intravenous iron sucrose is well tolerated and with a clinically manageable safety profile when using appropriate dosing and monitoring. The availability of intravenous iron sucrose would potentially improve compliance and thereby reduce morbidities from iron deficiency.
Reduction of block-transform image coding artifacts by using local statistics of transform coefficients (1997)

This letter presents a new approach to reduce coding artifacts in transform image coding. We approach the problem in an estimation of each transform coefficient from its quantized version with its local mean and variance. The proposed method can significantly reduce coding artifacts of low bit-rate coded images, and at the same time guarantee that the resulting images satisfies the quantization error constraint.
Theoretical insight into the electrocatalytic reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> with different metal ratios and reaction mechanisms on palladium–copper alloys (2018)

Environmental impacts of continued CO2 production have led to an increased need for new methods of CO2 removal and energy development. Electrochemical reduction of CO2 has been shown to be a good method through recent studies. Alloys are of special interest for these applications, because of their unique chemical and physical properties that allow for highly active surfaces. Here, PdnCum (m + n = 15 and n > m) bimetallic electrocatalysts were used for systematic studies to understand the effect of the composition of Pd and Cu on the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO. In particular, the Pd-Cu alloy with the Pd/Cu = 2/1 atomic ratio (i.e., Pd10Cu5) has the best catalytic effect, particularly true at the step of the hydrogenation of CO2 to COOH, and the Pd10Cu5 catalyst is better than most known electrodes. With the energetic analysis of the proposed reaction pathways over the Pd10Cu5 catalyst, the limiting voltages for CO2 reduction to CH3OH, CH4, and CH3CH2O have been compared. Most importantly, the kinetic model analysis showed that the rate constant values indicate that the probability of generating C2H5OH on the Pd10Cu5 catalyst is greater than that of CH3OH or CH4. The findings revealed in this study may shed some light on the design of cost-effective and efficient electrocatalysts for CO2 conversion to CO or to other useful hydrocarbons.
A Model for Real Gas Transfer in Nanopores of Shale Gas Reservoirs (2015)

Abstract The gas transport in nanopores of shale gas reservoirs is significantly different from that in conventional gas reservoirs. A model for ideal gas in nanopores is derived based on a weighted summation of slip flow and Knudsen diffusion, where ratios of intermolecular collisions and molecular and nanopores wall collisions to total collisions are the weighted factors of slip flow and Knudsen diffusion, respectively. This model is extended to the application of real gas transport in nanopores by taking into account the effects of intermolecular force and gas molecule volume on mass transport under the condition of high pressure. The model is validated by published molecular simulation data. The results show that the model is more reasonable to describe all of the gas transport mechanisms known, including continuous flow, slip flow and transition flow; the degree of real gas effects on gas transport is up to 23%, which is controlled by pressure, temperature, nanopores radius and gas type; and methane transport capacity is underestimated by 65.09% with helium and overestimated by 106.27% with nitrogen in simulation of methane transport in shale nanopores under the condition of laboratory experiments.
Decorin-induced Growth Suppression Is Associated with Up-regulation of p21, an Inhibitor of Cyclin-dependent Kinases (1996)

The secreted proteoglycan decorin has been implicated in the negative control of cell proliferation primarily by virtue of its ability to block transforming growth factor-beta. Moreover, decorin expression is markedly up-regulated during quiescence but suppressed upon viral transformation, whereas de novo decorin expression in colon carcinoma cells abrogates the malignant phenotype by arresting the cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Here we show that this decorin-induced growth arrest is associated with up-regulation of p21 mRNA and protein in a transforming growth factor-beta- and p53-independent pathway. The augmented p21 protein is present as a multimeric complex with various cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases in the nuclei of decorin-expressing cells, thereby leading to suppression of cyclin-dependent kinase activity and block of cell division. Through the usage of decorin-specific antisense oligodeoxynucleotide treatment, we demonstrate that the expression of decorin is closely linked to that of p21 and that abrogation of decorin leads to suppression of p21 and restoration of cell division. Collectively, our results provide a plausible mechanism by which decorin may contribute to retard and suppress the growth of tumor cells in vivo.

Galanin-receptor ligand M40 peptide distinguishes between putative galanin-receptor subtypes. (1993)

The galanin-receptor ligand M40 [galanin-(1-12)-Pro3-(Ala-Leu)2-Ala amide] binds with high affinity to [mono[125I]iodo-Tyr26]galanin-binding sites in hippocampal, hypothalamic, and spinal cord membranes and in membranes from Rin m5F rat insulinoma cells (IC50 = 3-15 nM). Receptor autoradiographic studies show that M40 (1 microM) displaces [mono[125I]iodo-Tyr26]galanin from binding sites in the hippocampus, hypothalamus, and spinal cord. In the brain, M40 acts as a potent galanin-receptor antagonist: M40, in doses comparable to that of galanin, antagonizes the stimulatory effects of galanin on feeding, and it blocks the galaninergic inhibition of the scopolamine-induced acetylcholine release in the ventral hippocampus in vivo. In contrast, M40 completely fails to antagonize both the galanin-mediated inhibition of the glucose-induced insulin release in isolated mouse pancreatic islets and the inhibitory effects of galanin on the forskolin-stimulated accumulation of 3',5'-cAMP in Rin m5F cells; instead M40 is a weak agonist at the galanin receptors in these two systems. M40 acts as a weak antagonist of galanin in the spinal flexor reflex model. These results suggest that at least two subtypes of the galanin receptor may exist. Hypothalamic and hippocampal galanin receptors represent a putative central galanin-receptor subtype (GL-1-receptor) that is blocked by M40. The pancreatic galanin receptor may represent another subtype (GL-2-receptor) that recognizes M40, but as a weak agonist. The galanin receptors in the spinal cord occupy an intermediate position between these two putative subtypes.
Pronunciation Learning for Automatic Speech Recognition (2011)

In many ways, the lexicon remains the Achilles heel of modern automatic speech recogniz-ers (ASRs). Unlike stochastic acoustic and language models that learn the values of their parameters from training data, the baseform pronunciations of words in an ASR vocabulary are typically specified manually, and do not change, unless they are edited by an expert. Our work presents a novel generative framework that uses speech data to learn stochastic lexicons, thereby taking a step towards alleviating the need for manual intervention and au-tomnatically learning high-quality baseform pronunciations for words. We test our model on a variety of domains: an isolated-word telephone speech corpus, a weather query corpus and an academic lecture corpus. We show significant improvements of 25%, 15 % and 2 % over expert-pronunciation lexicons, respectively. We also show that further improvements can be made by combining our pronunciation learning framework with acoustic model training.
