Obsessive compulsive symptoms in autism (2008)

Research exploring the nature of anxiety symptoms in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has thus far focused on children and adolescents, providing evidence for both typical and atypical anxiety symptom presentations associated with ASD. This study builds on previous research by focusing on young adults, and comparing anxiety presentation between individuals with ASD and non-ASD individuals with anxiety disorders. We anticipated that while the non-ASD group would report only typical anxiety symptoms, and the ASD group would report both typical and atypical presentations of anxiety symptoms.Ten individuals with ASD and anxiety (M = 21.8 years, SD = 6.76), and 10 individuals with anxiety (M = 24.4 years, SD = 4.17) participated in focus groups. Participants responded to semi-structured interview questions specifically developed using the DSM-5 criteria for each of the anxiety disorders, Illness Anxiety Disorder, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. These questions focused on carefully elucidating experiences of anxiety including DSM-5 anxiety symptomatology and ASD-specific anxiety symptomatology.Thematic analysis revealed a theme structure for the ASD group composed of both DSM-5-related (e.g., social anxiety themes) and ASD-specific anxiety presentations (i.e., related to core ASD symptomatology). In contrast, the non-ASD group described predominantly DSM-5-related anxiety symptomatology.Our findings support the predicted outcome that there are both ASD-specific anxiety and DSM-5-related anxiety symptomatology in young adults with ASD, compared with young adults with anxiety who show only DSM-5 symptomatology. Future research elucidating the relationship between ASD symptomatology and anxiety in ASD, utilising both quantitative and qualitative measures, is crucial to enable a more comprehensive understanding of the nuances of anxiety in ASD. Gaining this knowledge is a crucial step for the development of more accurate and appropriate assessment and treatment tools that can target their specific anxiety experiences.

Thick Film Techniques for Microwave Integrated Circuits (1974)

A thick film approach to state-of-the-art microwave integrated circuits, which has been used to produce thousands of highly reliable low cost S-band and L-band solid state modules for production radar systems is described. These modules include low-noise amplifiers, double conversion mixers, interdigital filters, multiple port power dividers and switches, phase encoders, and power amplifiers. A discussion of the fabrication and microwave properties of thick film conductors, resistors, and capacitors is given along with photographs and performance data of various microwave integrated circuit modules that accumulated over a million device hours in operation without a failure.
Control Mechanisms at the Level of FDP-Aldolases in Algae (1968)

Abstract The FDP-aldolase I from Euglena gracilis is a four-chain enzyme, as shown by the amino acid analysis of the C and N terminals. The protein is dissociated by acid pH to a monomer. The reassociation-dissociation process goes through a dimer stage. The enzyme, inhibited either by mercurials or by ATP, is dissociated to a dimer. This process is readly reversible either by mercaptoethanol and by AMP.
Control of Myometrial Function in Preterm Versus Term Labor (1984)

In this review I have attempted to briefly describe myogenic, neurogenic, and hormonal mechanisms which control myometrial function during term and preterm labor. The synthesis of myometrial gap junctions and receptors in response to hormonal changes appears to be a key element in the gradual evolution of contractility leading to labor. I suggest that the development of myometrial gap junctions is physiologically regulated and can be manipulated pharmacologically. Thus, this system provides a means of regulating myogenic control of smooth muscle. I have proposed a model, or working hypothesis, which may explain the indirect and direct interactions of various substances involved in the control of synthetic processes and stimulating or inhibiting myometrial contractility. The model predicts that term or preterm labor can be initiated at various steps. A more complete understanding of these interactions is necessary for a rational approach to the control of term or preterm labor.
Bi-directional power converters for smart grids: Isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter (2014)

AbstractAs part of my master thesis I have take part in Isolated Bidirectional DC_DC LLC resonant converter from Eltak company. Application of power exchanges takes place in either direction using two unidirectional DC-DC converters. Even though it is common to use power flow in unidirectional, but later due to many application growing emphasis on small size, compact the two unidirectional way of power flow and efficient power systems. This gives increasing interest to develop a bidirectional type of power flow with bidirectional converter. This is especially for DC power application like motor drives, uninterruptible power supplies(UPS), alternate energy system, telecommunication, space technology, hybrid Automotives, battery charger and battery discharger.After a literature study of different types of converter topology , the isolated bidirectional DC-DC LLC resonant converter has been selected. This resulted in LLC resonant tank have for both mode of operation. The converter is dual active bridge with isolated high switching frequency transformer. The bridge on the high side is voltage-fed and current-fed on the low side of the converter. Since the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converters have the capability to perform the bidirectional power flow in a compact form or a single device to perform such application. Therefore for this specialization project it is proposed to have dual full-bridge isolated bidirectional DC-DC LLC resonant converter in a compact and single device converter. The topology computable for this type of isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter. In this bidirectional converter mainly discussed about the role LLC resonant arrangement instead of PWM for reducing power loss in high switching frequency.
Synthesis of immunologically active muramyl dipeptide derivatives containing a quinonyl moiety via aminoacyl intermediates. (1981)

3-(2, 3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-1, 4-benzoquinon-6-yl) propanoic acid, 10-(2, 3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-1, 4-benzoquinon-6-yl) decanoic acid, 6-(2, 3, 5-trimethyl-1, 4-benzoquinon-6-yl)-hexanoic acid, 9-(2-methyl-1, 4-naphthoquinon-3-yl) nonanoic acid were coupled to Nacetyl-6-O-aminoacylmuramyl-α-aminoisobutyryl-D-isoglutamines by the active ester method. The aminoacyl residues used were Gly, β-Ala, L-Pro, L-Leu, D-Leu, Ahx and Aud. Most of the resulting derivatives showed more potent adjuvant activity than N-acetyl-muramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine, an active constituent of mycobacterial cell wall peptidoglycan, for the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity. The strength of the activity was affected by the combination of quinonyl acids and linking amino acids, and the present study indicated that the incorporation of an ω-(2, 3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-1, 4-benzoquinon-6-yl) alkanoyl moiety through Leu was most favorable.
Role-based access control with X.509 attribute certificates (2003)

We adapted the standard X.509 privilege management infrastructure to build an efficient role-based trust management system in which role assignments can be widely distributed among organizations, and an XML-based local policy determines which roles to trust and which privileges to grant. A simple Java API lets target applications easily incorporate the system. The Permis API has already proven its general utility in four very different applications throughout Europe.

Intermolecular forces (1975)

The nature of molecular interactions is examined. Intermolecular forces are divided into long-range and short-range components; the former operate at distances where the effects of electron exchange are negligible and decrease as an inverse power of the separation. The long-range interactions may be subdividied into electrostatic, induction and dispersion contributions, where the electrostatic component is the interaction of the permanent charge distributions and the others originate in the fluctuations in the distributions. Typical magnitudes of the various contributions are given. The forces between macroscopic bodies are briefly considered, as are the effects of a medium. Some of the manifestations of molecular interactions are discussed.
Drinking Problems in Adopted and Nonadopted Sons of Alcoholics (1974)

Sons of alcoholic parentage, adopted in infancy, were compared with their brothers who were raised by the alcoholic parent. Both the adopted and nonadopted sons had high rates of alcoholism (25% and 17%, respectively), but the difference was not statistically significant. The two groups also had comparable frequency of alcohol problems. The nonadopted sons differed from the adopted sons in age (older) and belonging to a lower socioeconomic class. Length of exposure to the alcoholic parent was not associated with the development of alcoholism. However, severity of the parent's alcoholism, as inferred by number of hospitalizations, was positively related to alcoholism in the offspring. The results suggested that environmental factors contributed little, if anything, to the development of alcoholism in sons of severe alcoholics, in this sample.
Multiple-gate split-drain MOSFET magnetic-field sensing device and amplifier (1992)

A new split-drain MOSFET magnetic-field sensing device is reported which uses multiple gates to establish a longitudinal electric field in the channel. A relative sensitivity of 185 mA/AT was measured for a double-polysilicon, multiple-gate, split-drain MOSFET. A triple-drain multiple-gate MOSFET device achieved relative sensitivities greater then 10,000 mA/AT. A new amplifier circuit for the multiple-gate, split-drain device achieved an absolute sensitivity of 10 V/T at a 400 nA bias current corresponding to a relative sensitivity of 2.5*10/sup 7/ V/AT. The intrinsic power dissipation of the magnetic amplifier sensor is as small as 8 mu W.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Endoluminal local delivery of PCNA/cdc2 antisense oligonucleotides by porous balloon catheter does not affect neointima formation or vessel size in the pig coronary artery model of postangioplasty restenosis (1997)

Localized delivery of antisense oligonucleotides directed against cell cycle regulatory proteins has been proposed as a means to prevent restenosis after angioplasty. To test whether single endoluminal delivery of a combination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and cell-division cycle 2 kinase (cdc2) antisense might affect restenosis, we delivered 2 ml of lipid-complexed PCNA/cdc2 antisense oligomers (1.35 mg) to the coronary arteries of pigs after balloon overstretch angioplasty (AS group) and performed planimetric histomorphometry on arterial sections of the tissue, harvested at 4 wk. Compared with controls receiving 3′–5′ reversed sequence oligomers (REV group), there were no differences in absolute intimal area (AS 1.36 ± 0.08 mm2, REV 1.23 ± 0.10 mm2, P = NS), intimal area normalized to extent of injury (AS 0.67 ± 0.03, REV 0.77 ± 0.10, P = NS), or vessel perimeter (AS 7.72 ± 0.19 mm, REV 7.36 ± 0.22 mm, P = NS). We conclude that single endoluminal delivery of antisense against key cell cycle regulatory proteins does not affect neointima formation or vessel size in this model of restenosis. Cathet.

<title>Soccer player recognition by pixel classification in a hybrid color space</title> (1997)

Soccer is a very popular sport all over the world, Coaches and sport commentators need accurate information about soccer games, especially about the players behavior. These information can be gathered by inspectors who watch the soccer match and report manually the actions of the players involved in the principal phases of the game. Generally, these inspectors focus their attention on the few players standing near the ball and don't report about the motion of all the other players. So it seems desirable to design a system which automatically tracks all the players in real- time. That's why we propose to automatically track each player through the successive color images of the sequences acquired by a fixed color camera. Each player which is present in the image, is modelized by an active contour model or snake. When, during the soccer match, a player is hidden by another, the snakes which track these two players merge. So, it becomes impossible to track the players, except if the snakes are interactively re-initialized. Fortunately, in most cases, the two players don't belong to the same team. That is why we present an algorithm which recognizes the teams of the players by pixels representing the soccer ground which must be withdrawn before considering the players themselves. To eliminate these pixels, the color characteristics of the ground are determined interactively. In a second step, dealing with windows containing only one player of one team, the color features which yield the best discrimination between the two teams are selected. Thanks to these color features, the pixels associated to the players of the two teams form two separated clusters into a color space. In fact, there are many color representation systems and it's interesting to evaluate the features which provide the best separation between the two classes of pixels according to the players soccer suit. Finally, the classification process for image segmentation is based on the three most discriminating color features which define the coordinates of each pixel in an 'hybrid color space.' Thanks to this hybrid color representation, each pixel can be assigned to one of the two classes by a minimum distance classification.
Delayed sleep phase syndrome: A placebo‐controlled cross‐over study on the effects of melatonin administered five hours before the individual dim light melatonin onset (1998)

In a double-blind placebo-controlled cross-over study, 30 patients with Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS) were included, of whom 25 finished the study. Melatonin 5 mg was administered during two weeks in a double-blind setting and two weeks in an open setting successively or interrupted by two week of placebo. The study's impact was assessed by measurements of the 24-h curves of endogenous melatonin production and rectal temperature (n = 14), polysomnography (n = 22), actigraphy (n = 13), sleep log (n = 22), and subjective sleep quality (n = 25). Mean dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) (+/- SD), before treatment, occurred at 23.17 hours (+/- 138 min). Melatonin was administered five hours before the individual DLMO. After treatment, the onset of the nocturnal melatonin profile was significantly advanced by approximately 1.5 hour. Body temperature trough did not advance significantly. During melatonin use, actigraphy showed a significant advance of sleep onset and polysomnography, a significant decreased sleep latency. Sleep architecture was not influenced. During melatonin treatment patients felt significantly more refreshed in the morning. These results show that analysis of DLMO of patients suffering from DSPS is important both for diagnosis and therapy. These results are discussed in terms of the biochemistry of the pineal.
Making real games virtual: Tracking board game pieces (2008)

The same game is often played in real and virtual worlds. We integrate in-person and on-line playing of board games such as Go, bringing the real world into the virtual world. A player may record an in-person game by placing their camera on the table next to the game board, taking photos of the game. After automatically detecting the board and playing pieces, we perform inference on the time series of detections to eliminate errors and accurately estimate long sequences of moves. The game transcript may be studied afterwards, shared with friends and teachers, or added to online compilations, bringing the attendant benefits of online game play to an in-person game.

Hyperspectral hybrid method classification for detecting altered mucosa of the human larynx (2012)

Using hyperspectral classification procedures derived from remote sensing applications for diagnostic purposes can create concrete benefits for the medical field. The approach shows that it would be rewarding to collect spectral signatures from histologically different lesions of laryngeal disorders in order to build up a spectral library and to prospectively allow non-invasive optical biopsies.
Satellite orbit determination and power subsystem design (2004)

One of the most important problems in mission planning and satellite command and control is being able to accurately predict orbital motion, because the trajectory of a spacecraft is a fundamental design parameter with major implications for all subsystems. The purpose of this paper is to present, first, the simulation of the satellite orbit analysis based on data collected from NASA/NORAD two line element files. The analysis includes orbit determination and prediction of satellite position/velocity, orbit eclipse and ground trace and so on. Second the application of this simulation to design the low Earth orbit (LEO). The intention of this simulation was to create a graphical User Interface GUI which consists of menus, push buttons, text boxes, plots and other interface devices that allow the GUI user to immediately see the impact of various changes.
A Compositive Contrast Enhancement Algorithm of IR Image (2013)

The contrast enhancement of infrared image is useful and important to the infrared image system. The current techniques of local enhancing exists either over-enhancing or high complexity problems. In this paper, we propose a compositive contrast enhancement algorithm which combines histogram equalization based methods (HEBM) and an multi-scales unsharp masking based methods (UMBM). This proposed algorithm uses HEBM to achieve global contrast enhancement and UMBM to achieve local multi-scales contrast enhancement. First, we review the techniques developed in the literature for contrast enhancement. After then, we introduce the new algorithm in details. The performance of the proposed method is studied on experimental IR data and compared with those yielded by two well established algorithms. The developed algorithm has good performance in global contrast and local contrast enhancement with noise and artifact suppression.
Aminopeptidase B, a glucagon-processing enzyme: site directed mutagenesis of the Zn2+-binding motif and molecular modelling (2007)

Alignment of the primary structures of the M1 family members clearly demonstrates the existence of different sub-families and highlights crucial residues in the enzymatic activity of the whole family. E. coli recombinant enzyme and Ap-B structural model constitute powerful tools for investigating the importance and possible roles of these conserved residues in Ap-B, LTA4H and M1 aminopeptidase catalytic sites and to gain new insight into their physiological functions. Analysis of Ap-B structural model indicates that several interactions between Ap-B and proteins can occur and suggests that endopeptidases might form a complex with Ap-B during hormone processing.
Fundamental Properties of CO<sub>2</sub> Gas as an Arc Quenching Medium and Thermal Interruption Performance of Full-Scale GCB Model (2004)

Fundamental properties of CO2 gas, as an alternative arc quenching medium of SF6 gas, in a puffer-type gas circuit breaker were investigated theoretically and experimentally, focusing particularly on its thermal interruption performance. It was found that utilizing arc energy for enhancing puffer pressure is a good solution to construct a CO2 gas circuit breaker due to the physical properties of CO2 gas. Based on these fundamental investigations, the 72kV-31.5kA-class CO2 gas circuit breaker model, which does not contain SF6 gas at all, was designed, manufactured, and tested. As a result, the CO2 gas circuit breaker model achieved the specified interruption performance for short line fault.

The Multicast Dissemination Protocol (MDP) Version 1 Framework (1996)

Abstract : This white paper outlines a simple protocol framework that was developed for reliable multicast dissemination of data files. It also provides some historical development and testing history. The general framework described here was originally developed and used by the Image Multicaster (IMM) application within the Internet Mbone for reliable multicast file transfer. This document describes the more general use of the protocol framework as a reliable bulk file transfer technique. We discuss the present operational modes, some performance issues, and the basic application data units (ADUs) used. This is not intended to be a detailed protocol specification document, but rather a broad description of the basic protocol features and a discussion of issues.
