DeepPAR and DeepDPA: Privacy Preserving and Asynchronous Deep Learning for Industrial IoT (2019)

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is significant of building powerful industrial systems and applications. Deep learning has provided a promising opportunity to extract useful knowledge by utilizing vast amounts of data in IIoT. However, lacking of massive public datasets will lead to low performance and overfitting of the learned model. Therefore, the federated deep learning over distributed datasets has been proposed. Whereas, it inevitably introduces some new security challenges, i.e., disclosing participant's data privacy. However, existing methods cannot guarantee each participant's data privacy in a learning group. In this article, we propose two privacy-preserving asynchronous deep learning schemes [privacy-preserving and asynchronous deep learning via re-encryption (DeepPAR) and dynamic privacy-preserving and asynchronous deep learning (DeepDPA)]. Compared to the state-of-the-art work, DeepPAR protects each participant's input privacy while preserving dynamic update secrecy inherently. Meanwhile, DeepDPA enables to guarantee backward secrecy of group participants in a lightweight manner. Security analysis and performance evaluations on real dataset show that our proposed schemes are secure, efficient and effective.
Electrochemical investigations in supercritical carbon dioxide (1996)

It has been shown that hydrophobic electrolytes can be dissolved in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) to give conducting media. The conductivity is comparable with that of similar electrolytes in cyclohexane under ambient conditions. The solubility of the electrolyte in supercritical media is related to the density of the medium. Electron-transfer processes are demonstrated for the first time in both cyclohexane and unmodified scCO2 at a macroscopic electrode.
High-Yield Sol−Gel Synthesis of Well-Dispersed, Colorless ZrO<sub>2</sub> Nanocrystals (2006)

A 93% high-yield synthesis of well-dispersed, colorless zirconium dioxide (ZrO(2)) nanocrystals is reported. In this synthesis, hydrolysis and condensation reactions of zirconium(IV) tert-butoxide in the presence of oleic acid (100 degrees C) formed ZrO(2) precursors. The ZrO(2) precursors were made of -Zr-O-Zr- networks surrounded by oleic acid molecules. Annealing (280 degrees C) the precursors dispersed in dioctyl ether caused crystallization of the -Zr-O-Zr- networks, thereby generating 4 nm ZrO(2) nanocrystals stabilized with oleic acid. The particles were highly crystalline and tetragonal phase. A dense ZrO(2) nanocrystal dispersion in toluene (280 mg/mL) showed a transmittance of about 90% (3 mm optical path length) in the whole visible region.

Molecular dynamics simulation of interface dynamics during the fcc-bcc transformation of a martensitic nature (2006)

The structural and dynamic properties of the interface during the fcc-bcc transformation in pure iron have been investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. An embedded atom method potential was used for the atomic interactions. Two interfaces, close to the Bain and Kurdjumov-Sachs orientation relations, have been examined during the fcc-to-bcc transformation. In each simulation the system was left to evolve freely at the imposed temperature. In a system with fully periodic boundaries no interface motion has been observed, whereas systems with at least one free boundary do show a mobile interface. After an incubation time, there is a very fast transformation from fcc to bcc, with interface velocities reaching values in the range of $200--700\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{m}∕\mathrm{s}$, depending on the interface orientation and on temperature. The characteristics of the transformation are of a martensitic nature, without this being imposed on the system. During the incubation time a complex interface structure is formed, which appears to be essential for the martensitic transformation. From the atomic displacements during the transformation, the occurrence of slip planes can be identified.
Acidic Mammalian Chitinase Is Secreted via an ADAM17/Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-dependent Pathway and Stimulates Chemokine Production by Pulmonary Epithelial Cells (2008)

Acidic mammalian chitinase (AMCase) is expressed in an exaggerated fashion in epithelial cells at sites of pulmonary T helper cell type 2 inflammation and plays important roles in the pathogenesis of anti-parasite and asthma-like responses. However, the mechanisms that control epithelial cell AMCase secretion and its effector responses have not been adequately defined. To address these issues, we used in vivo and in vitro experimental systems to define the pathways of epithelial AMCase secretion and its epithelial regulatory effects. Here we demonstrate that, in murine T helper cell type 2 modeling systems, AMCase colocalizes with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ADAM17 (a membrane disintegrin and metallopeptidase 17) in lung epithelial cells. In vitro cotransfection experiments in A549 cells demonstrated that AMCase and EGFR physically interact with each other. Cotransfection of AMCase and EGFR also increased, whereas EGFR inhibition decreased AMCase secretion. Interestingly, AMCase secretion was not significantly altered by treatment with EGF but was significantly decreased when the upstream EGFR transactivator ADAM17 was inhibited. AMCase secretion was also decreased when the EGFR-downstream Ras was blocked. Transfected and recombinant AMCase induced epithelial cell production of CCL2, CCL17, and CXCL8. These studies demonstrate that lung epithelial cells secrete AMCase via an EGFR-dependent pathway that is activated by ADAM17 and mediates its effects via Ras. They also demonstrate that the AMCase that is secreted feeds back in an autocrine and/or paracrine fashion to stimulate pulmonary epithelial cell chemokine production.
<i>TDP‐43</i> A315T mutation in familial motor neuron disease (2008)

To identify novel causes of familial neurodegenerative diseases, we extended our previous studies of TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) proteinopathies to investigate TDP-43 as a candidate gene in familial cases of motor neuron disease. Sequencing of the TDP-43 gene led to the identification of a novel missense mutation, Ala-315-Thr, which segregates with all affected members of an autosomal dominant motor neuron disease family. The mutation was not found in 1,505 healthy control subjects. The discovery of a missense mutation in TDP-43 in a family with dominantly inherited motor neuron disease provides evidence of a direct link between altered TDP-43 function and neurodegeneration.
Water transport across mammalian cell membranes (1996)

This review summarizes recent progress in water-transporting mechanisms across cell membranes. Modern biophysical concepts of water transport and new measurement strategies are evaluated. A family of water-transporting proteins (water channels, aquaporins) has been identified, consisting of small hydrophobic proteins expressed widely in epithelial and nonepithelial tissues. The functional properties, genetics, and cellular distributions of these proteins are summarized. The majority of molecular-level information about water-transporting mechanisms comes from studies on CHIP28, a 28-kDa glycoprotein that forms tetramers in membranes; each monomer contains six putative helical domains surrounding a central aqueous pathway and functions independently as a water-selective channel. Only mutations in the vasopressin-sensitive water channel have been shown to cause human disease (non-X-linked congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus); the physiological significance of other water channels remains unproven. One mercurial-insensitive water channel has been identified, which has the unique feature of multiple overlapping transcriptional units. Systems for expression of water channel proteins are described, including Xenopus oocytes, mammalian and insect cells, and bacteria. Further work should be directed at elucidation of the role of water channels in normal physiology and disease, molecular analysis of regulatory mechanisms, and water channel structure determination at atomic resolution.
Inorganic Cation Dependence of Putrescine and Spermidine Transport in Human Breast Cancer Cells (1995)

The mechanism of polyamine uptake in mammalian cells is still poorly understood. The role of inorganic cations in polyamine transport was investigated in ZR-75-1 human breast cancer cells. Although strongly temperature dependent, neither putrescine nor spermidine uptake was mediated by a Na+ cotransport mechanism. In fact, Na+ and cholinium competitively inhibited putrescine uptake relative to that measured in a sucrose-based medium. On the other hand, ouabain, H+, Na+, and Ca2+ ionophores, as well as dissipation of the K+ diffusion potential, strongly inhibited polyamine uptake in keeping with a major role of membrane potential in that process. Polyamine transport was inversely dependent on ambient osmolality at near physiological values. Putrescine transport was inhibited by 70% by decreasing extracellular pH from 7.2 to 6.2, whereas spermidine uptake had a more acidic optimum. Deletion of extracellular Ca2+ inhibited putrescine uptake more strongly than chelation of intracellular Ca2+. In fact, bound divalent cations were absolutely required for polyamine transport, as shown after brief chelation of the cell monolayers with EDTA. Either Mn2+, Ca2+, or Mg2+ sustained putrescine uptake activity with high potency (Km = 50-300 microM). Mn2+ was a much stronger activator of spermidine than putrescine uptake, suggesting a specific role for this metal in polyamine transport. Other transition metals (Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) were mixed activators/antagonists of carrier activity, while Sr2+ and Ba2+ were very weak agonists, while not interfering with Ca2+/Mg(2+)-dependent transport. Thus, polyamine uptake in human breast tumor cells is negatively affected by ionic strength and osmolality, and is driven, at least in part, by the membrane potential, but not by the Na+ electrochemical gradient. Moreover, the polyamine carrier, or a tightly coupled accessory component, appears to have a high-affinity binding site for divalent cations, which is essential for the uptake mechanism.
Theoretical Study of Electronic Structures and Spectra of Chalcogenido Complexes of Molybdenum, <i>trans</i>-Mo(Q)<sub>2</sub>(PH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>4</sub> (Q = O, S, Se, Te) (1996)

Electronic structures of the title complexes have been studied using quantum chemical computations by different methods. It is shown that the results of Xalpha calculations agree well with expectations from classical ligand-field theory, but both are far from being in agreement with the results given by ab initio calculations. The HOMO in the ab initio Hartree-Fock molecular orbital diagrams of all these complexes is a chalcogen p(pi) lone pair orbital rather than the metal nonbonding d(xy)() orbital previously proposed. Electronic transition energies were calculated by CASSCF and CI methods. The results suggest that in the cases when Q = S, Se, and Te the lowest energy transitions should be those from the p(pi) lone pair orbitals to the metal-chalcogen pi orbitals. The calculated and observed electronic spectra of the oxo complex are in good agreement and very different from the spectra of the other complexes, and the lowest absorptions were accordingly assigned to transitions of different origins.
New scanning device for scanning tunneling microscope applications (1992)

A small, single piezo XYZ translator has been developed. The device has been used as a scanner for a scanning tunneling microscope and has been tested successfully in air and in UHV. Its simple design results in a rigid and compact scanning unit which permits high scanning rates.
Novel macrocyclic glycolipids from Torulopsis gropengiesseri (1967)

Chemical and spectroscopic evidence is presented in support of a proposed structure for the crystalline glycolipid which is formed during fermentation of Torulopsis gropengiesseri in a medium supplemented by methyl 9-octa-decenoate. Closely related macrocyclic lactones are formed by fermentations in media supplemented by n-heptadecane, n-hexadecane, and methyl hexadecanoate and also in a medium lacking supplement.
Sonic boom theory - Its status in prediction and minimization (1976)

This paper gives a brief review of the currently accepted understanding of sonic boom phenomena and describes the manner in which modified linearized theory and geometric acoustics are used to predict the sonic boom caused by a complex aircraft configuration. Minimization methods that have evolved in recent years are discussed with particular attention given to a method developed by Seebass and George for an isothermal atmosphere which was modified for the real atmosphere by Darden. An additional modification which permits the relaxation of the nose bluntness requirement in the defining aircraft is also discussed. Finally, an overview of current areas of sonic boom research is given.
Atriopeptin II‐induced relaxation of rabbit aorta is potentiated by M&B 22,948 but not blocked by haemoglobin (1986)

We examined the effects of haemoglobin (which inhibits the vascular responses to stimulation of soluble guanylate cyclase) and of M&B 22,948 (which selectively inhibits cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase) on the relaxation induced in rabbit aorta by the atrial natriuretic peptide, atriopeptin II (which stimulates particulate guanylate cyclase). Pretreatment with M&B 22,948 (100 microM) produced a 2.3 fold potentiation of atriopeptin II-induced relaxation of endothelium-denuded rings of rabbit aorta. Pretreatment with haemoglobin (10 microM) had no effect on the relaxation or the 10.9 fold increase in cyclic GMP content induced by atriopeptin II in endothelium-denuded rings of rabbit aorta. The potentiation by M&B 22,948 suggests a causal role for cyclic GMP in mediating atriopeptin II-induced vasodilatation of rabbit aorta. The inability of haemoglobin to block the atriopeptin II-induced rise in cyclic GMP suggests that it does not block stimulation of particulate guanylate cyclase. Thus, it is unlikely that a ferrous haem-containing receptor site is involved in the activation of the particulate form of guanylate cyclase as it is with soluble guanylate cyclase.
Shortening behaviour of drawn and twisted copper wires (1991)

Previously drawn copper wires were twisted to large strains (γ≍6) at room temperature under free end conditions. Before testing, individual samples were annealed for 1 h at 150, 200, 250, 300, and 550°C. The specimens heated at 150 and 200°C displayed recovered microstructures, whereas those heated at 250°C and above were recrystallised. During twisting, the recovered samples exhibited shortening behaviour (of up to −4%). In contrast, the recrystallised specimens exhibited lengthening (of up to 3%). Before twisting, the textures were determined by mean of pole figure analysis. Three fibres were identified: 〈111〉, 〈100〉, and 〈112〉 – the last appears above the recrystallisation temperature. The changeover in axial behaviour produced by annealing is attributed to the removal of the 〈111〉 component by recrystallisation. Simulations using the rate sensitive Sachs polycrystal model revealed the roles of the different fibre components. The shortening behaviour is caused by the 〈111〉 component. The 〈100〉 fibre together with the random background is responsible for lengthening. The 〈112〉 component does not affect the axial behaviour significantly.MST/1243
Amathaspiramides A−F, Novel Brominated Alkaloids from the Marine Bryozoan <i>Amathia </i><i>w</i><i>ilsoni</i> (1999)

A series of six new dibrominated alkaloids, amathaspiramides A−F (1−6), have been isolated from a New Zealand collection of the marine bryozoan Amathia wilsoni. An X-ray crystallographic structural determination of amathaspiramide F (6) revealed it to be an epimer of amathaspiramide C (3). These data, in addition to the results of NOESY NMR experiments were used to infer the absolute configuration of the amathaspiramides.
Electro magnetic simulation and measurement of electrical parasitics in high density QFP packages (2002)

The signal distortion caused by the RLC parasitics associated with IC packages has become a factor of concern. This paper describes the application of three dimensional field solving software to model and extract parasitics associated with the wire bonds and package leads of a PQFP package. The simulated results are compared with the frequency domain measurement results and are found to be in good agreement. The Vector Network Analyser (VNA) based S-parameter measurement technique is used to obtain package inductance and capacitance. The measurement methodology and test set-up are presented in this paper. The package electrical parameters are determined per unit interconnect length.
ABA-Regulation of Two Classes of Embryo-Specific Sequences in Mature Wheat Embryos (1988)

We have previously described the isolation and characterization of ABA-enhanced sequences from developing wheat embryos. Here we use in vivo RNA labeling and the inhibitors alpha-amanitin and cycloheximide to determine the level at which ABA acts to modulate these sequences in cultured mature embryos. Sequences fell into two classes: one, represented by the 7S globulin clone, p511, appears to be regulated at the level of transcription, while the other, represented by the early methionine-labeled polypeptide (E(m))-protein clone, p1015, has an additional posttranscriptional component. In mature embryos cultured in the absence of ABA, mRNA levels of p511 and p1015 declined rapidly until neither was detected at 3 days postimbibition. Levels of p511 increased in mature embryos cultured in the presence of ABA, but remained low in the presence of ABA + alpha-amanitin, suggesting p511 RNA is regulated at the level of transcription. Levels of p1015, in contrast, remained high not only in the presence of ABA, but also in the presence of ABA + alpha-amanitin or alpha-amanitin alone. This suggests p1015 regulation might be at the level of selective RNA stability. Cycloheximide had no detectable effect on ABA-mediated stabilization of p1015, suggesting that newly synthesized proteins are not involved. E(m)-protein synthesis rates closely paralleled E(m) RNA levels, suggesting E(m) expression is not controlled at the level of translation.
Enhanced spectroscopic gas sensors using <i>in-situ</i> grown carbon nanotubes (2015)

In this letter, we present a fully complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) compatible microelectromechanical system thermopile infrared (IR) detector employing vertically aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) as an advanced nano-engineered radiation absorbing material. The detector was fabricated using a commercial silicon-on-insulator (SOI) process with tungsten metallization, comprising a silicon thermopile and a tungsten resistive micro-heater, both embedded within a dielectric membrane formed by a deep-reactive ion etch following CMOS processing. In-situ CNT growth on the device was achieved by direct thermal chemical vapour deposition using the integrated micro-heater as a micro-reactor. The growth of the CNT absorption layer was verified through scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. The functional effects of the nanostructured ad-layer were assessed by comparing CNT-coated thermopiles to uncoated thermopiles. Fourier transform IR spectroscopy showed that the radiation absorbing properties of the CNT adlayer significantly enhanced the absorptivity, compared with the uncoated thermopile, across the IR spectrum (3 μm–15.5 μm). This led to a four-fold amplification of the detected infrared signal (4.26 μm) in a CO2 non-dispersive-IR gas sensor system. The presence of the CNT layer was shown not to degrade the robustness of the uncoated devices, whilst the 50% modulation depth of the detector was only marginally reduced by 1.5 Hz. Moreover, we find that the 50% normalized absorption angular profile is subsequently more collimated by 8°. Our results demonstrate the viability of a CNT-based SOI CMOS IR sensor for low cost air quality monitoring.
A Monte Carlo-based method to estimate radiation dose from spiral CT: from phantom testing to patient-specific models (2003)

The purpose of this work is to develop and test a method to estimate the relative and absolute absorbed radiation dose from axial and spiral CT scans using a Monte Carlo approach. Initial testing was done in phantoms and preliminary results were obtained from a standard mathematical anthropomorphic model (MIRD V) and voxelized patient data. To accomplish this we have modified a general purpose Monte Carlo transport code (MCNP4B) to simulate the CT x-ray source and movement, and then to calculate absorbed radiation dose in desired objects. The movement of the source in either axial or spiral modes was modelled explicitly while the CT system components were modelled using published information about x-ray spectra as well as information provided by the manufacturer. Simulations were performed for single axial scans using the head and body computed tomography dose index (CTDI) polymethylmethacrylate phantoms at both central and peripheral positions for all available beam energies and slice thicknesses. For comparison, corresponding physical measurements of CTDI in phantom were made with an ion chamber. To obtain absolute dose values, simulations and measurements were performed in air at the scanner isocentre for each beam energy. To extend the verification, the CT scanner model was applied to the MIRD V model and compared with published results using similar technical factors. After verification of the model, the generalized source was simulated and applied to voxelized models of patient anatomy. The simulated and measured absolute dose data in phantom agreed to within 2% for the head phantom and within 4% for the body phantom at 120 and 140 kVp; this extends to 8% for the head and 9% for the body phantom across all available beam energies and positions. For the head phantom, the simulated and measured absolute dose data agree to within 2% across all slice thicknesses at 120 kVp. Our results in the MIRD phantom agree within 11% of all the different organ dose values published by the UK's ImPACT group for a scan using an equivalent scanner, kVp, collimation, pitch and mAs. The CT source model was shown to calculate both a relative and absolute radiation dose distribution throughout the entire volume in a patient-specific matrix geometry. Results of initial testing are promising and application to patient models was shown to be feasible.
