Interpreting Deep Visual Representations via Network Dissection (2018)

The success of recent deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) depends on learning hidden representations that can summarize the important factors of variation behind the data. In this work, we describe Network Dissection, a method that interprets networks by providing meaningful labels to their individual units. The proposed method quantifies the interpretability of CNN representations by evaluating the alignment between individual hidden units and visual semantic concepts. By identifying the best alignments, units are given interpretable labels ranging from colors, materials, textures, parts, objects and scenes. The method reveals that deep representations are more transparent and interpretable than they would be under a random equivalently powerful basis. We apply our approach to interpret and compare the latent representations of several network architectures trained to solve a wide range of supervised and self-supervised tasks. We then examine factors affecting the network interpretability such as the number of the training iterations, regularizations, different initialization parameters, as well as networks depth and width. Finally we show that the interpreted units can be used to provide explicit explanations of a given CNN prediction for an image. Our results highlight that interpretability is an important property of deep neural networks that provides new insights into what hierarchical structures can learn.
A Fast Flow Tube Study of Gas Phase H/D Exchange of Multiply Protonated Ubiquitin (2005)

An electrospray ionization (ESI)/fast-flow technique has been applied to the study of gas phase hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange kinetics. Multiply charged ubiquitin ions [ubiquitin + nH](n)(+), in charge states n = 7-13, were reacted with ND(3). The behavior of ND(3) as exchange reagent is different from that of the previously studied reagents, D(2)O and CH(3)OD. Contrary to those, the maximum number of exchanged hydrogen atoms and the overall exchange rate were observed to increase with increasing charge state of the ubiquitin ions. The results are reagent-dependent because the exchange mechanisms are different for the different reagents. This observation is in agreement with a recent conclusion by Beauchamp and co-workers that contrary to the assumption often expressed in earlier studies, H/D exchange kinetics may not directly reflect ion structures. The results for all three reagents are, however, consistent with observations of previous ion mobility experiments that with increasing charge state the conformers change from more compact, partially folded structures to elongated nearly linear ones. H/D exchange of (ubiquitin + 13H)(13+) with ND(3) leads to two separated ion populations reflecting the possible existence of two conformers with different exchange rates. The ions (ubiquitin + 8H)(8+) and (ubiquitin + 11H)(11+) represent a partially folded structure and an unfolded structure, respectively, and were studied in greater detail. The relative abundances of ions were measured in steps of 0.5 m/z (mass-to-charge ratio), as a function of the ND(3) flow rate. The experimental results were simulated by computer fitted curves based on a recently developed algorithm. The algorithm allows the extraction of sets of grouped rate constants. Eight rate constant groups were deduced for each of the two ions. These rate constants correspond to 32 and 44 H/D exchanges for the 8+ and 11+ charged ions, respectively. The results indicate higher individual rates for most of the exchanged atoms in the 11+ ion compared to the 8+ ion.
Running over unknown rough terrain with a one-legged planar robot (2011)

The ability to traverse unknown, rough terrain is an advantage that legged locomoters have over their wheeled counterparts. However, due to the complexity of multi-legged systems, research in legged robotics has not yet been able to reproduce the agility found in the animal kingdom. In an effort to reduce the complexity of the problem, researchers have developed single-legged models to gain insight into the fundamental dynamics of legged running. Inspired by studies of animal locomotion, researchers have proposed numerous control strategies to achieve stable, one-legged running over unknown, rough terrain. One such control strategy incorporates energy variations into the system during the stance phase by changing the force-free leg length as a sinusoidal function of time. In this research, a one-legged planar robot capable of implementing this and other state-of-the-art control strategies was designed and built. Both simulated and experimental results were used to determine and compare the stability of the proposed controllers as the robot was subjected to unknown drop and raised step perturbations equal to 25% of the nominal leg length. This study illustrates the relative advantages of utilizing a minimal-sensing, active energy removal control scheme to stabilize running over rough terrain.

Self-starting additive-pulse mode-locked diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser (1990)

A diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser is demonstrated by using self-starting additive-pulse mode locking with a nonlinear external cavity. Pulse durations of 1.7 psec are generated at an average output power of 25 mW without the need for active amplitude or phase modulation. Design and scaling issues for this technology are discussed.
C <sub>60</sub> Rotation in the Solid State: Dynamics of a Faceted Spherical Top (1992)

The rotational dynamics of C(60) in the solid state have been investigated with carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance ((13)C NMR). The relaxation rate due to chemical shift anisotropy (1/9T1(CSA)(1)) was precisely measured from the magnetic field dependence of T(1), allowing the molecular reorientational correlation time, tau, to be determined. At 283 kelvin, tau = 9.1 picoseconds; with the assumption of diffusional reorientation this implies a rotational diffusion constant D = 1.8 x 10(10) per second. This reorientation time is only three times as long as the calculated tau for free rotation and is shorter than the value measured for C(60) in solution (15.5 picoseconds). Below 260 kelvin a second phase with a much longer reorientation time was observed, consistent with recent reports of an orientational phase transition in solid C(60). In both phases tau showed Arrhenius behavior, with apparent activation energies of 1.4 and 4.2 kilocalories per mole for the high-temperature (rotator) and low-temperature (ratchet) phases, respectively. The results parallel those found for adamantane.
The metabolism and disposition of a potent inhibitor of hepatitis C virus NS3/4A protease (2010)

Compound A ((1aR,5S,8S,10R,22aR)-5-tert-butyl-N-{(1R,2S)-1-[(cyclopropylsulfonyl)carbamoyl]-2-ethenylcyclopropyl}-14-methoxy-3,6-dioxo-1,1a,3,4,5,6,9,10,18,19,20,21,22,22a-tetradecahydro-8H-7,10-methanocyclopropa[18,19][1,10,3,6]dioxadiazacyclononadecino[12,11-b]quinoline-8-carboxamide) is a prototype of a series of subnanomolar inhibitors of genotypes 1, 2, and 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A proteases. HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitors have demonstrated high antiviral effects in patients with chronic HCV infection and are likely to form a key component of future HCV therapy. Compound A showed excellent liver exposure in rats, which is essential for compounds intended to treat HCV. The compound was mainly eliminated intact in bile and showed greater than dose proportional systemic exposure in rats. Compound A demonstrated time- and temperature-dependent uptake into rat and human hepatocytes and proved to be a substrate for rat hepatic uptake transporter Oatp1b2 and for human hepatic uptake transporters OATP1B1 and OATP1B3. The liver selectivity observed for this compound is likely to be due to transporter-mediated hepatic uptake together with moderate passive permeability. Metabolism was mainly CYP3A-mediated and generated a reactive epoxide on the vinylcyclopropyl sulfonamide moiety that could be quenched by glutathione. Similar metabolic profiles of Compound A were obtained in liver microsomes of rats and humans. The oral bioavailability at 5 mg/kg was low due to extensive hepatic first-pass effect but clearly the intestinal absorption was enough to deliver a high amount of the compound to the liver. The metabolism and disposition properties of Compound A are particularly attractive to support its evaluation as a drug candidate for the treatment of hepatitis C.
Interobserver variability in data collection of the APACHE II score in teaching and community hospitals (1999)

Reliability of data collection varied widely in different components of the APACHE II probability-of-death model. Significant discrepancies in some components suggested a lack of explicit definitions and timing for consistent data collection between institutions or between data collectors. Nonetheless, variability resulting from data collection appears to be randomly distributed, so that comparisons of group means are valid.
Classical Sleep Stages and the Spectral Content of the Eeg Signal (1983)

Polygraphic sleep recordings during 12 nights in 5 healthy volunteers were classified manually into waking and the various sleep stages. The smoothed power spectra of EEG signal segments defined as waking or one of the sleep stages were calculated via segmentation of the EEG signal, using the autoregressive model, and time-dependent fuzzy clustering. The spectra were derived from the prediction coefficients of the segments. The relative power in the delta frequency band was found to increase monotonically with increasing depth of sleep, together with a parallel decrease in the alpha relative power. In most cases alpha relative power had a small peak during REM sleep, and on average the relative power in the sigma frequency band during REM sleep was smaller than the beta relative power. The power spectra from subjects with no waking alpha differed from those of subjects with abundant waking alpha mostly in the relative spectral content of stages 1 and REM. The significance of these findings is discussed in relation to future standardisation of automatic analysis of sleep recordings.
Chemical vapor deposition of copper with a new metalorganic source (1996)

Copper deposition based on a newly synthesized metalorganic compound shows promise for reproducible deposition which has been a major problem. The deposition can be carried out without adverse effect on the film qualities at the bubbler temperature of 65 °C. Preliminary deposition results reveal that the resistivity is 2.5 μΩ cm in the deposition temperature range between 175 and 200 °C. Unlike (hfac)Cu⋅VTMS, the resistivity increases with increasing deposition temperature due to loose packing of the grains at higher temperatures.
A memory-efficient architecture for intra predictor and de-blocking filter in video coding system (2012)

In the hardware architecture of the H.264/AVC video coding systems, the storage size of the intra predictor and de-blocking filter occupies a great portion of the internal memory size in the video coding. However, the higher resolution video costs huge internal memory size to store pixels to predict block data and eliminate the blocking effect, especially for the next-generation video applications which target resolution is Ultra-HD (8Kx4K). In this article, a memory-efficient architecture for intra predictor and de-blocking filter has been proposed which can roughly reduce up to 19% internal memory usage to efficiently reduce the decoder size and power consumption, and the sequential-interleaving memory architecture has also been adopted in the proposed architecture to solve the memory access conflict during video decoding. A test module is designed for the proposal and operates at 200 MHz for real-time processing with 85.1 K gates and 8.4 KB SRAM in 90nm CMOS technology.
Regulation of the Proinflammatory Effects of Fas Ligand (CD95L) (1998)

Fas ligand (CD95L) inhibits T cell function in immune-privileged organs such as the eye and testis, yet in most tissues CD95L expression induces potent inflammatory responses. With a stably transfected colon carcinoma cell line, CT26-CD95L, the molecular basis for these divergent responses was defined. When injected subcutaneously, rejection of CT26-CD95L was caused by neutrophils activated by CD95L. CT26-CD95L survived in the intraocular space because of the presence of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), which inhibited neutrophil activation. Providing TGF-beta to subcutaneous sites protected against tumor rejection. Thus, these cytokines together generate a microenvironment that promotes immunologic tolerance, which may aid in the amelioration of allograft rejection.
Transforming growth factors (TGFα and TGFβH) stimulate chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronate synthesis in cultured rat liver fat storing cells (1989)

The synthesis of total sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAG) was stimulated by transforming growth factors (TGF alpha 1.4-fold at 5 ng/ml, and TGF beta 1 2.05-fold at 2.5 ng/ml) in primary cultures of rat liver fat storing cells (FSC). The combination of both TGFs resulted in an additively stimulated synthesis of total sulfated GAG (more than 3-fold), chondroitin sulfate (more than 15-fold) and hyaluronate (3.8-fold), respectively, whereas the formation of dermatan sulfate was unchanged and that of heparan sulfate was slightly reduced. In summary, TGFs were identified as important mediators of stimulated GAG synthesis in those cells of the liver (FSC), which are the primary site of matrix glycoconjugate production.
Midazolam: The First Water‐soluble Benzodiazepine; Pharmacology, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy in Insomnia and Anesthesia (1985)

Midazolam is a 1,4‐benzodiazepine derivative with a unique chemical structure: depending on environmental pH, the drug can produce highly water‐soluble salts (pH < 4) or exist in lipophilic diazepine ring‐closed form (pH > 4). This characteristic contributes to rapid onset of action and to good local tolerance after parenteral administration. After both oral and parenteral administration, midazolam has a fast absorption rate and is rapidly excreted, with a half‐life of only about 2 hours. A reasonably good correlation has been found between plasma levels and clinical effects, indicating a fast but brief response. As a hypnotic, midazolam is mainly indicated in insomniac patients with difficulties in falling asleep or having a pathologic sleep pattern during the first half of the night. No marked hangover effects are present the next morning. In anesthesiology, midazolam appears to be a useful, short‐acting, sedative‐anxiolytic and amnesic premedicant after both oral and parenteral administration. In minor surgery, however, the slow, unpredictable onset and variable duration of action, as compared with thiopental, may inhibit its routine use as an induction agent, especially in young patients, without heavy premedication. In major surgery, midazolam is an alternative to thiopental for induction of anesthesia in spite of its slow, variable induction time. Its advantages include good cardiovascular stability, transient and mild respiratory depression, low frequency of venous irritation, production of anterograde amnesia and short duration of action in comparison with other benzodiazepines.
The cell cycle as a therapeutic target against <i>Trypanosoma brucei</i>: Hesperadin inhibits Aurora kinase‐1 and blocks mitotic progression in bloodstream forms (2009)

Aurora kinase family members co-ordinate a range of events associated with mitosis and cytokinesis. Anti-cancer therapies are currently being developed against them. Here, we evaluate whether Aurora kinase-1 (TbAUK1) from pathogenic Trypanosoma brucei might be targeted in anti-parasitic therapies as well. Conditional knockdown of TbAUK1 within infected mice demonstrated its essential contribution to infection. An in vitro kinase assay was developed which used recombinant trypanosome histone H3 as a substrate. Tandem mass spectroscopy identified a novel phosphorylation site in the carboxyl-tail of recombinant trypanosome histone H3. Hesperadin, an inhibitor of human Aurora B, prevented the phosphorylation of substrate with IC(50) of 40 nM. Growth of cultured bloodstream forms was also sensitive to Hesperadin (IC(50) of 50 nM). Hesperadin blocked nuclear division and cytokinesis but not other aspects of the cell cycle. Consequently, growth arrested cells accumulated multiple kinetoplasts, flagella and nucleoli, similar to the effects of RNAi-dependent knockdown of TbAUK1 in cultured bloodstream forms cells. Molecular models predicted high-affinity binding of Hesperadin to both conserved and novel sites in TbAUK1. Collectively, these data demonstrate that cell cycle progression is essential for infections with T. brucei and that parasite Aurora kinases can be targeted with small-molecule inhibitors.
Linear-, Cyclic-, and Multiblock Amphiphilic Polyelectrolytes as Surfactants in Emulsion Polymerization: Role of Topological Structure (2013)

Combining atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and “click” chemistry, a set of well-defined amphiphilic block copolymers poly(n-butyl acrylate)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PnBA20-PAA85) with a similar chemical component, but different topological structures, i.e., linear-, cyclic-, and multiblock structures, were successfully prepared, characterized (size exclusion chromatography (SEC), FT-IR and 1H NMR), and used as surfactants in emulsion polymerization. Our further transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and laser light scattering (LLS) characterization of the resultant latex particles demonstrates all the surfactants with different topologies can effectively stabilize the latex particles but no significant difference among the solids contents was observed. Moreover, we have, for the first time, experimentally established the quantitative relation between the final number of latex particles (Np) and the concentration of polymeric surfactant with different topologies (C), i.e., Np = kCα, and the order of our measured exponent α is as follows: αmulti(1.10) > αlinear(0.81) ≥ αcyclic(0.73), indicating cyclic surfactant molecules behave more like small-molecule surfactants attributed to its strongest unimers extraction and diffusion ability; in contrast, multiblock surfactant molecules can act as seeds to directly nucleate to create latex particles. In addition, Np,multi > Np,linear ≥ Np,cyclic at higher concentration, and Np,linear > Np,cyclic ≥ Np,multi at lower concentration was observed. Similar results (αmulti(1.02) > αlinear(0.65) ≥ αcyclic(0.58)) were also observed when polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PS9–PAA60) copolymers were used as surfactants. Further aqueous SEC characterization shows the broad size distribution of our micellar solution has no effect on obtaining narrowly distributed latex particles. Finally, interfacial tension measurement of the micellar solution indicates, compared to multiblock structure, the rate of adsorption at a hydrophobic interface is much faster for linear and cyclic-block structures, agreeing with our observed order of exponent α.

“…'t was ten to one; And yet we ventured…”<sup>1</sup>: P300 and Decision Making (1983)

ABSTRACT In some situations subjects' predictions of future events do not accurately reflect the subjective probability associated with these events. We set up such a situation by manipulating the payoff structure in a prediction paradigm, and found that P300 provides an index of the processes responsible for subjective probability, or expectancy, not obtainable from overt predictions. Sixteen subjects were required to predict, on each trial, whether a 1, 2, or 3 would appear on a display. The numbers appeared randomly with probabilities .45, .10, and .45, respectively. In one condition subjects were given bonuses according to an all‐or‐none payoff function in which they received one cent if they predicted correctly, and nothing if they were incorrect. In a second condition bonuses were determined by a linear payoff function in which subjects were paid one cent if they predicted correctly, and one‐half cent if they were off by one (e.g., predict 1 and 2 appears). After each condition subjects estimated the actual number of stimuli presented. These estimates were the same for both conditions, although predictions differed radically, with 2 predicted much more frequently in the linear condition. P300 area was largest for the rare event (2), and the relationship between P300 and probability was unaffected by payoffs. Our design did introduce differences between conditions in the overall “riskiness’ of predictions, and the strategies adopted by most subjects also resulted in differences in the salience, or task relevance, of the feedback stimuli. These differences resulted in an overall increase in P300 in the all‐or‐none condition. A relationship also emerged between the subjects' strategies and their ERPs. Subjects who adopted more effective strategies responded differentially to feedback from high and low risk predictions, whereas the others did not.
