High-performance nested CEP query processing over event streams (2011)

Complex event processing (CEP) over event streams has become increasingly important for real-time applications ranging from health care, supply chain management to business intelligence. These monitoring applications submit complex queries to track sequences of events that match a given pattern. As these systems mature the need for increasingly complex nested sequence query support arises, while the state-of-art CEP systems mostly support the execution of flat sequence queries only. To assure real-time responsiveness and scalability for pattern detection even on huge volume high-speed streams, efficient processing techniques must be designed. In this paper, we first analyze the prevailing nested pattern query processing strategy and identify several serious shortcomings. Not only are substantial subsequences first constructed just to be subsequently discarded, but also opportunities for shared execution of nested subexpressions are overlooked. As foundation, we introduce NEEL, a CEP query language for expressing nested CEP pattern queries composed of sequence, negation, AND and OR operators. To overcome deficiencies, we design rewriting rules for pushing negation into inner subexpressions. Next, we devise a normalization procedure that employs these rules for flattening a nested complex event expression. To conserve CPU and memory consumption, we propose several strategies for efficient shared processing of groups of normalized NEEL subexpressions. These strategies include prefix caching, suffix clustering and customized “bit-marking” execution strategies. We design an optimizer to partition the set of all CEP subexpressions in a NEEL normal form into groups, each of which can then be mapped to one of our shared execution operators. Lastly, we evaluate our technologies by conducting a performance study to assess the CPU processing time using real-world stock trades data. Our results confirm that our NEEL execution in many cases performs 100 fold faster than the traditional iterative nested execution strategy for real stock market query workloads.
Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis: diagnostic and treatment challenges (2016)

Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (CRP) of Gougerot and Carteaud was first typified in 1927. With the help of electron microscopy, it has been elucidated that CRP arises due to aberrant keratinization. However, till date, there is no clear consensus on the etiologic trigger for CRP. Prevailing postulates include a bacterial trigger by Dietzia papillomatosis (type strain N 1280(T)), an exaggerated cutaneous response to Malassezia furfur, an endocrine basis stemming from insulin resistance, ultraviolet light-induced epidermal change, amyloid deposition, and a loss-of-function mutation in keratin 16. CRP typically presents as asymptomatic hyperpigmented papules and plaques with peripheral reticulation over the nape, axillae, upper chest, and upper back, occasionally with extension superior to the forehead and inferior to the pubic region. Dermoscopy may be used in the evaluation of CRP, but its diagnosis is made on clinical grounds given its nonspecific histopathological findings. Although successful treatment with topical keratolytics, retinoids, or antifungals has been reported, antibiotics, such as minocycline, at anti-inflammatory doses have emerged as a preferred therapeutic option. In this article, we review the diagnostic considerations in CRP and its therapeutic options.
Introduction to the recommendations from the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer's Association workgroup on diagnostic guidelines for Alzheimer's disease (2011)

Background: Criteria for the clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) were established in 1984. A broad consensus now exists that these criteria should be revised to incorporate state-ofthe-art scientific knowledge. Methods: TheNationalInstituteonAging(NIA)andtheAlzheimer’sAssociationsponsoredaseries of advisory round table meetings in 2009 whose purpose was to establish a process for revising diagnostic and research criteria for AD. The recommendation from these advisory meetings was that three separate work groups should be formed with each assigned the task of formulating diagnostic criteria for one phase of the disease: the dementia phase; the symptomatic, pre-dementia phase; and the asymptomatic, preclinical phase of AD. Results: Two notable differences from the AD criteria published in 1984 are incorporation of biomarkers of the underlying disease state and formalization of different stages of disease in the diagnostic criteria. There was a broad consensus within all three workgroups that much additional work is needed to validate the application of biomarkers for diagnostic purposes. In the revised NIA-Alzheimer’s Association criteria, a semantic and conceptual distinction is made between AD pathophysiological processes and clinically observable syndromes that result, whereas this distinction was blurred in the 1984 criteria. Conclusions: The new criteria for AD are presented in three documents. The core clinical criteria of the recommendations regarding AD dementia and MCI due to AD are intended to guide diagnosis in the clinical setting. However, the recommendations of the preclinical AD workgroup are intended purely for research purposes. 2011 The Alzheimer’s Association. All rights reserved.

Contextual Bandits with Similarity Information (2009)

In a multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem, an online algorithm makes a sequence of choices. In each round it chooses from a time-invariant set of alternatives and receives the payoff associated with this alternative. While the case of small strategy sets is by now well-understood, a lot of recent work has focused on MAB problems with exponentially or infinitely large strategy sets, where one needs to assume extra structure in order to make the problem tractable. In particular, recent literature considered information on similarity between arms. We consider similarity information in the setting of "contextual bandits", a natural extension of the basic MAB problem where before each round an algorithm is given the "context" -- a hint about the payoffs in this round. Contextual bandits are directly motivated by placing advertisements on webpages, one of the crucial problems in sponsored search. A particularly simple way to represent similarity information in the contextual bandit setting is via a "similarity distance" between the context-arm pairs which gives an upper bound on the difference between the respective expected payoffs. Prior work on contextual bandits with similarity uses "uniform" partitions of the similarity space, which is potentially wasteful. We design more efficient algorithms that are based on adaptive partitions adjusted to "popular" context and "high-payoff" arms.
First results of an implantable sensor for blood flow measurement (2002)

Information about the hemodynamic state of the human organism is very important in the electrotherapy of the heart. In the therapy of tachycardias with implantable defibrillators ventricular and supraventricular tachycardias have to be discriminated from each other to avoid unnecessary electrical shocks. In this study two new implantable sensors for blood flow measurements are evaluated. The first sensor determines the change of conductivity of blood depending on the flow rate. This effect is based on shear forces which lead to an orientation of cellular blood components causing anisotropic electrical properties of the blood. For measuring the relative conductivity of blood a bipolar pacemaker lead is used. The second sensor principle is based on the measurement of the resistance of a heated resistor. This depends on the blood flow due to thermal transport of the blood. Both hemodynamic sensors were implanted in dogs in the coronary sinus, the vena cava superior and the right outflow tract. The sensor signal-the impedance of the blood or the powered resistor respectively-was measured during electrical stimulation of the heart and during atrial and ventricular fibrillation. The course of the signal of the blood conductivity sensor reflects the course of the mean arterial blood pressure (MAPB) during the heart cycle. The absolute values of the sensed signals depend on the position of the sensor. In conclusion, both sensor principles offer information about blood flow and cardiac output, which can be used for a better control of ICD therapy or new pacing algorithms.

In this challenge, we explored a notional dataset about a fabricated religious movement, Catalanopsilas Paraiso Manifesto Movement.
Comparison of temperature preference for habitat among three species of oceanic sea skaters, &lt;i&gt;Halobates micans&lt;/i&gt;,&lt;i&gt; H. germanus&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;H. sericeus&lt;/i&gt; (2013)

The main purpose of this study is to investigate temperature preference for habitat of three species of oceanic sea skaters, Halobates micans, H. germanus and H. sericeus. For each of the three species, we examined the relationship between population density and surface water and air temperatures in the sampling sites during three science cruises in the tropical to temperate zone of the Pacific Ocean. A higher density of H. micans was observed in sites with higher water and air temperatures at 28℃ - 30℃ than that at site with lower temperatures of 23℃ - 28℃. A higher density of H. germanus was observed in sites with extremely high temperatures of 29.6℃ and 30℃ than that in sites with moderately high temperatures of 28℃ - 29℃ in the Pacific Ocean, while a relatively high density was observed in sites with a wide range of temperatures from 24℃ - 30℃ in the southern hemisphere Pacific Ocean. The relatively low temperature preference of 23℃ - 28℃ exhibited by H. sericeus may be related to its size as the smallest among the three species and its relatively wide latitudinal distribution ranging up to 40?N.
Exact and efficient crosstalk estimation (2001)

With the reducing distances between wires in deep submicrometer technologies, coupling capacitances are becoming significant as their magnitude becomes comparable to the area capacitance and fringing capacitance of a wire. This causes an increasing susceptibility to failure due to inadvertent noise and leads to a requirement for accurate noise estimation. An incorrect estimation of the noise could lead either to circuit malfunction in case of underestimation or to wasted design resources due to overestimation. This paper presents a new time-efficient method for the precise estimation of crosstalk noise. While existing fast noise estimation metrics may overestimate the coupling noise by several orders of magnitude, the proposed metric computes the coupling noise with a good accuracy as compared to SPICE.
Facial expression recognition in still pictures and videos using active appearance models (2007)

The paper highlights the performance of video sequence-oriented facial expression recognition using Active Appearance Model -- AAM, in a comparison with the analysis based on still pictures. The AAM is used to extract relevant information regarding the shapes of the faces to be analyzed. Specific key points from a Facial Characteristic Point - FCP model are used to derive the set of features. These features are used for the classification of the expressions of a new face sample into the prototypic emotions. The classification method uses Support Vector Machines.
Integrating security policies via Container Portable Interceptors (2005)

In the past, it was very common to develop middleware without consideration of security from the very beginning. To integrate security, the middleware that should be protected has to provide appropriate hooks and interfaces, and has to meet the requirements of security. In most cases it is not possible to develop a new, secure middleware from scratch. It is only possible to make minor modification to existing systems. In this paper we describe the successful integration of a CORBA Component based middleware and a policy management framework for the definition, management and enforcement of security policies. Integration is achieved by defining Container Portable Interceptors and QoS Enablers which provide the necessary hooks for interception and provision of context interfaces to integrate the security framework.
Estimation of frequency, amplitude, and phase from the DFT of a time series (1997)

In a previous paper, a frequency estimator using only three Fourier coefficients was introduced, which has asymptotic variance of order T/sup -3/. In this correspondence, a similar technique of Rife and Vincent (1970) is shown to have asymptotic variance of larger order. A new estimator is introduced that has asymptotic variance Less than 1.65 times the CRLB.
Non‐galloylated and galloylated proanthocyanidin oligomers in grape seeds from <i>Vitus vinifera</i> L. cv. Graciano, Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon (2006)

Abstract Non‐galloylated and galloylated flavan‐3‐ol composition in seeds from Vitis vinifera L. var. Graciano, Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes harvested in 2000, 2001 and 2002 at the same geographical area were determined using normal‐phase HPLC coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC/ESI‐MS) detection. Non‐galloylated and monogalloylated flavan‐3‐ols up to octamers, and di‐, and trigalloylated flavan‐3‐ols up to heptamers were identified in all grape seeds. Comparisons of the flavan‐3‐ol composition in three grape varieties harvested in three different years indicate that levels of non‐galloylated flavan‐3‐ols decrease as the degree of polymerization increased, whereas the monogalloylated dimers were present in the highest levels in all varieties and vintages. The levels of other monogalloylated flavan‐3‐ols varied in different vintages. Tempranillo contained the lowest levels of non‐galloylated and monogalloylated flavan‐3‐ols, whereas Graciano contained the highest levels, with the exception of non‐galloylated flavan‐3‐ols in vintage 2001, and non‐galloylated monomers in vintages 2000 and 2002. Grape seeds from vintage 2000 contained the highest levels of both non‐galloylated and galloylated structures. Statistical analyses indicate that the distribution of the flavan‐3‐ols is primarily determined by genetic factors and is also strongly influenced by climate conditions.

The nucleotide sequence of the DNA ligase gene (<i>CDC9</i>) from<i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>: a gene which is cell-cycle regulated and induced in response to DNA damage (1985)

The <unl>CDC9</unl> gene of <unl>Saccharomyces</unl> <unl>cerevisiae</unl> encodes a DNA ligase, and we have determined the nucleotide sequence of a 3.85 kb fragment of DNA which emcompasses the convergently transcribed <unl>CDC9</unl> and <unl>CDC36</unl> genes. S1 nuclease mapping has revealed a major 5′ end for the CDC9 mRNA, and one major and one minor site for 3′ polyadenylation. These two sites lie within the C-terminal coding region of the <unl>CDC36</unl> gene, implying that these two genes are transcribed from overlapping sequences. An interesting structural feature of the <unl>CDC9</unl> gene is a series of 6 hexanucleotide repeats (ATGATT) which occur within the 650 bp immediately upstream from the site of transcription initiation. These repeat elements may be implicated in the cell division cycle regulated expression of <unl>CDC9</unl>. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence of the yeast DNA ligase (Mr 84,806) with the sequences of the T4 and T7 bacteriophage DNA ligases reveals little similarity except for a stretch of approximately 45 amino acids, comprising 3 short homologous segments. This region may represent an ATP-binding domain common to polynucleotide ligases.
In-vitro and in-vivo adhesion of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli to the surfaces of chicken tracheal epithelium (2010)

A total of 59 E. coli serotypes recovered from chickens, quail, Guinea fowls and turkeys with septicaemic lesions of colibacillosis were characterized on the basis of morphology, colony characteristics, biochemical profile and somatic ‘O’ antigen serotyping. These strains had thin pili (fimbriae) when grown at 37°C but not at 18°C. These pili facilitated adherence of the bacteria to chick tracheal epithelial cells both in-vitro and in-vivo. In-vitro fimbrial adherence to tracheal epithelium of 13 E. coli serotypes revealed 8 serotypes with high adhesiveness and 5 serotypes with low adhesiveness. These results were highly correlated with the presence of fimbriae on bacteria which indirectly related to mannose sensitive haemagglutination pattern (MSHA). In-vivo adherence of fimbriae on tracheal epithelium as observed by scanning electron microscopy revealed that piliated E. coli (grown at 37oC) were more virulent than nonpiliated ones (grown at 18oC). Adhesive properties were found in 87% of the lethal strains and in only 40% of the intermediate lethal strains. The role of these pili was also examined by comparing chicks infected intratracheally with piliated bacteria and non-piliated bacteria. It is suggested that adhesive property of E. coli strains with the help of pili (fimbriae) to the tracheal epithelium may play an important role in the virulence. PCR was also employed to detect the adhesin genes i.e. ‘crl’ and ‘csgA’. The result showed that 7 serotypes were found positive for ‘crl’ gene while 5 serotypes were positive for ‘csgA’ gene. Most of the isolates having ‘crl'genes was found to be positive for MSHA and adhesive, suggesting the role of curli gene in adherence and thus enhancing the virulence of the organisms. There has been a good correlation with MSHA and in-vitro adherence and a positive correlation was found between curli genes and adhesiveness.
Condensation of Substituted Phenols with Hexakis(methoxymethyl)melamine:  Synthesis, Characterization, and Properties of Substituted 2,4,6-Tris[3,4-dihydro-1,3-(2<i>H</i>)-benzoxazin-3-yl]-<i>s</i>-triazine Derivatives (1998)

Condensation of hexakis(methoxymethyl)melamine (HMMM) with 2,4-disubstituted and 4-substituted phenols in refluxing p-xylene catalyzed by dinonylnaphthalenedisulfonic acid (DNNDSA) gives substituted 2,4,6-tris[3,4-dihydro-1,3-(2H)-benzoxazin-3-yl]-s-triazine derivatives (1−4). These tris(benzoxazine) derivatives are characterized by infrared, 1H and 13C NMR, mass spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies suggest thermal cross-linking reactions of benzoxazines made from 4-substituted phenols but not for the one made from a 2,4-disubstituted phenol.
Effect of L-carnitine on submaximal exercise metabolism after depletion of muscle glycogen. (1993)

The effect of L-carnitine on energy metabolism at a high lipolytic flux was studied. Nine healthy male subjects received L-carnitine (CARN) (3 g.d-1) for 7 d, or a placebo (CONT), both with Ca pentothenate. The treatment increased resting nitrogen excretion slightly (+15%, P < 0.02). After an overnight fast, the subjects were submitted successively to 20 min bicycle exercise at 43 +/- 2 (SEM) %VO2max, a glycogen depletion routine involving high intensity bouts to exhaustion, 1-2 h of rest, again 20 min at the initial load, and finally 20 min at 57 +/- 3 %VO2max. After glycogen depletion, blood short-chain acylcarnitine concentrations increased 5 times as much in CARN as in CONT (P < 0.02). Fat oxidation estimated from respiratory gas exchange doubled after glycogen depletion for the same exercise intensity. However, there were no treatment differences in nonprotein RQ, heart rate, perceived fatigue, and blood parameters. It is concluded that during submaximal exercise after glycogen depletion (i.e., at a high lipid flux) substrate metabolism is not influenced by L-carnitine supplementation.
