A Comprehensive Feature Study for Appliance Recognition on High Frequency Energy Data (2017)

Awareness about the energy consumption of appliances can help to save energy in households. Non-intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) is a feasible approach to provide consumption feedback at appliance level. In this paper, we evaluate a broad set of features for electrical appliance recognition, extracted from high frequency start-up events. These evaluations were applied on several existing high frequency energy datasets. To examine clean signatures, we ran all experiments on two datasets that are based on isolated appliance events; more realistic results were retrieved from two real household datasets. Our feature set consists of 36 signatures from related work including novel approaches, and from other research fields. The results of this work include a stand-alone feature ranking, promising feature combinations for appliance recognition in general and appliance-wise performances.
Val d'Orbieu vers des révisions déchirantes! (2004)

Users of complementary medicine reported increased relational and lower social QoL, increased use of psychosocial support, and favorable healthy-lifestyle habits. Actively inquiring about the lifestyle habits and QoL of patients experiencing infertility could be useful in identifying patients who could benefit from psychosocial interventions or lifestyle recommendations.
A novel mouse model of human breast cancer stem-like cells with high CD44+CD24~/lower phenotype metastasis to human bone (2008)

In the novel "human source" model of breast cancer, breast cancer stem-like cells demonstrated a higher human bone-seeking ability. Its mechanism might be related to the higher expressions of CD44, CXCR4, and OPN, and the lower expression of CD24 in breast cancer stem-like cells.
Adolescents’ social background and non-standard writing in online communication (2018)

Abstract In a large corpus (2.9 million tokens) of chat conversations, we studied the impact of Flemish adolescents’ social background on non-standard writing. We found significant correlations between different aspects of social class (level of education, home language and profession of the parents) and all examined deviations from formal written standard Dutch. Clustering several social variables might not only lead to a better operationalization of the complex phenomenon of social class, it certainly allows for discriminating social groups with distinct linguistic practices: lower class teenagers used each of the non-standard features much more often and in some cases in a different way than their upper class peers. Possible explanations concern discrepancies in terms of both linguistic proficiency and linguistic attitudes. Our findings emphasize the importance of including social background as an independent variable in variationist studies on youngsters’ computer-mediated communication.
PETRELS: Parallel Subspace Estimation and Tracking by Recursive Least Squares From Partial Observations (2013)

Many real world datasets exhibit an embedding of low-dimensional structure in a high-dimensional manifold. Examples include images, videos and internet traffic data. It is of great significance to estimate and track the low-dimensional structure with small storage requirements and computational complexity when the data dimension is high. Therefore we consider the problem of reconstructing a data stream from a small subset of its entries, where the data is assumed to lie in a low-dimensional linear subspace, possibly corrupted by noise. We further consider tracking the change of the underlying subspace, which can be applied to applications such as video denoising, network monitoring and anomaly detection. Our setting can be viewed as a sequential low-rank matrix completion problem in which the subspace is learned in an online fashion. The proposed algorithm, dubbed Parallel Estimation and Tracking by REcursive Least Squares (PETRELS), first identifies the underlying low-dimensional subspace, and then reconstructs the missing entries via least-squares estimation if required. Subspace identification is performed via a recursive procedure for each row of the subspace matrix in parallel with discounting for previous observations. Numerical examples are provided for direction-of-arrival estimation and matrix completion, comparing PETRELS with state of the art batch algorithms.
Mouse β-galactoside α2,3-sialyltransferases: comparison of <i>in vitro</i> substrate specificities and tissue specific expression (1997)

Four types of beta-galactoside alpha 2,3-sialyltransferase (ST3Gal I-IV) have been cloned from several animals, but some contradictory observations regarding their substrate specificities and expression have been reported. Therefore, it is necessary to concurrently analyze the substrate specificities of the four enzymes, of which the source should be one animal. Accordingly, the acceptor substrate specificities and gene expression of mST3Gal I-IV were analyzed. Since we had already cloned ST3Gal I and II, as previously reported (Lee, Y.-C. et al., Eur. J. Biochem., 216, 377-385 (1993); J. Biol. Chem., 269, 10028-10033 (1994)), the cDNAs of ST3Gal III and IV were cloned from mouse cDNA libraries. Each of the four enzymes was expressed in COS-7 cells as a recombinant enzyme fused with protein A, and applied on an IgG-Sepharose gel to eliminate endogenous sialyltransferase activity. ST3Gal I and II showed the highest activity toward Gal beta 1, 3 GalNAc (type III), very low activity toward Gal beta 1,3GlcNAc (type I), but none toward Gal beta 1,4GlcNAc (type II). ST3Gal III and IV exhibited high activity toward the type I and II disaccharides, but very low activity toward the type III one. On the other hand, asialo-GM1 (Gg4Cer) was as good a substrate for ST3Gal I and II as the type III disaccharide, though ST3Gal III and IV hardly utilized glycolipids as substrates, as indicated by in vitro experiments. Northern blot analysis revealed that enzymes of the ST3Gal-family are expressed mainly in a tissue-specific manner. The ST3Gal I gene was strongly expressed in spleen and salivary gland, and weakly in brain, liver, heart, kidney, and thymus. The ST3Gal II gene was strongly expressed in brain, and weakly in colon, thymus, salivary gland, and testis, and developmentally expressed in liver, heart, kidney, and spleen. The ST3Gal III and IV genes were expressed in a wide variety of tissues. These differences in tissue specific expression suggest the expression of each ST3Gal influences the distribution of sialyl-glycoconjugates in vivo.
Collective Intelligence in Computer-Mediated Collaboration Emerges in Different Contexts and Cultures (2015)

Collective intelligence (CI) is a property of groups that emerges from the coordination and collaboration of members and predicts group performance on a wide range of tasks. Previous studies of CI have been conducted with lab-based groups in the USA. We introduce a new standardized online battery to measure CI and demonstrate consistent emergence of a CI factor across three different studies despite broad differences in (a) communication media (face-to-face vs online), (b) group contexts (short-term ad hoc groups vs long-term groups) and (c) cultural settings (US, Germany, and Japan). In two of the studies, we also show that CI is correlated with a group's performance on more complex tasks. Consequently, the CI metric provides a generalizable performance measure for groups that is robust to broad changes in media, context, and culture, making it useful for testing the effects of general-purpose collaboration technologies intended to improve group performance.
A Novel Retrofit Solution for Oily Cuttings Slurrying and Re-Injection on the Ula Platform (1996)

Abstract Within the North Sea area there are many platforms nearing the end of their initial drilling phase but with the likelihood of significant, if infrequent, sidetracking operations in the future. For a number of these, oil based drilling fluids still offer a cost effective solution, particularly where tortuous trajectories are proposed. The Ula platform is a case in point, but, as with all operations in the Norwegian sector, unprocessed oily cuttings can not be discharged. Cuttings slurrying and re-injection resolves this problem and has been successfully used by BP Norway on the Gyda platform for the last 5 years. The challenge, therefore, was to design a slurrying system for the Ula platform, recognising both the space limitations and the cost constraints. This paper reports on the novel solution adopted, the costs involved and the subsequent performance of the installation. Introduction The Ula field, located in block 7/12 of the Norwegian sector of the North Sea, (Fig. 1), was discovered in 1976 by the semi-submersible drilling rig "Nordskald". It is a jurassic reservoir, at some 3200M vertical depth below sea-bed with total recoverable reserves estimated at 435 million barrels of oil equivalent. The PDQ (Production, Drilling, Quarters) jackets were installed in 1985 and first oil was produced in 1986. In the intervening ten years, over 300 million barrels of oil have been produced. The production rate is presently about 50-55,000 barrels of oil per day, with a water injection rate of about 200,000 bpd. Eighteen slots are available and, at present, there are 11 wells on production, six are water injectors and one is temporarily abandoned. The first seven wells on the field were drilled using a KCl/Polymer drilling fluid system. However, major problems were encountered in drilling the Tertiary shale interval, so much so, that Low Toxicity Oil Based Muds (LTOBMs) were used for the 12 1/4" and 8 1/2" sections of the latter wells. The resultant fluid costs were reduced by 36%, on a comparable cost per meter basis, the average ROP increased 74% (Table 1) and the drilling problems were significantly reduced. However, there remained the issue of the oily cuttings. A cuttings cleaning plant was, therefore, installed, and it succeeded in reaching the then specified limit of 10% oil, on a weight by dry weight basis. Efforts were subsequently made to reduce the residual oil on the cuttings further, so as to comply with the interim 6% limit, that was to be introduced. P. 519
Open reduction and internal fixation of displaced, comminuted intra-articular fractures of the distal end of the radius. (1989)

The results in sixteen patients who had a displaced, comminuted intra-articular fracture of the distal end of the radius and who were treated by open reduction and internal fixation were retrospectively reviewed. At a mean follow-up of 4.8 years, 81 per cent of the patients had a rating of good or excellent by the scoring system of Gartland and Werley, but only 56 per cent had such a rating when the modified scoring system of Green and O'Brien was used. All of the fractures healed at an average of nine weeks. A step-off of two millimeters or more in the distal radial articular surface at the time of healing was important, because the four patients in whom the fracture healed with this amount of incongruity all had post-traumatic arthritis at follow-up, compared with only three of twelve in whom the incongruity was less than two millimeters.

Circulatory disturbance of the venous system during experimental intracranial hypertension (1973)

✓ The venous drainage system during increased intracranial pressure (ICP) was studied in dogs. The ICP was gradually increased to the level of the systemic blood pressure while related arterial and venous pressures were monitored. The blood flow through the parasagittal intradural venous channels (lateral lacuna) was also measured to test the collapsibility of these vessels. The cortical venous pressure was constantly 50 to 200 mm H 2 O higher than the ICP regardless of the degree of elevation, while the sagittal sinus pressure remained at 50 to 75 mm H 2 O unless the central venous pressure was elevated by respiratory disturbance. Flow through the lateral lacuna decreased as the ICP was increased. The authors conclude that the low pressure in the sinus and the consistency of the walls of the lateral lacuna allow gradual stenosis of the lacuna during increased ICP.
The soybean Dof‐type transcription factor genes, <i>GmDof4</i> and <i>GmDof11</i>, enhance lipid content in the seeds of transgenic Arabidopsis plants (2007)

Soybean is one of the most important leguminous seed crops among the oil crops. Although the pathways for lipid biosynthesis have been identified, the factors that regulate the biosynthetic pathways at the transcriptional level are largely unknown. Here, we report our findings on the involvement of soybean Dof-type transcription factor genes in the regulation of the lipid content in soybean seeds. We identified 28 Dof-type transcription factor genes in soybean plants, and these genes displayed diverse patterns of expression in various organs. Seven flower/pod-specific genes and one constitutively expressed gene were further investigated. The proteins encoded by these seven genes were localized in the nucleus, and exhibited different abilities for transcriptional activation and DNA binding. Two genes, GmDof4 and GmDof11, were found to increase the content of total fatty acids and lipids in GmDof4 and GmDof11 transgenic Arabidopsis seeds. We also found that the 1000-seed weight was increased in the GmDof4 and GmDof11 transgenic plants. Using microarray and DNA binding analysis, we found that the two Dof-like proteins, GmDof4 and GmDof11, activated the acetyl CoA carboxylase gene and long-chain-acyl CoA synthetase gene, respectively, by direct binding to the cis-DNA elements in their promoter regions. In addition, both proteins downregulated the storage protein gene, CRA1, through direct binding. These results suggest that the two GmDof genes may augment the lipid content of soybean seeds by upregulating genes that are associated with the biosynthesis of fatty acids.
Effects of Adding Clostridium sp. WJ06 on Intestinal Morphology and Microbial Diversity of Growing Pigs Fed with Natural Deoxynivalenol Contaminated Wheat (2017)

Deoxynivalenol (DON) is commonly detected in cereals, and is a threat to human and animal health. The effects of microbiological detoxification are now being widely studied. A total of 24 pigs (over four months) were randomly divided into three treatments. Treatment A was fed with a basal diet as the control group. Treatment B was fed with naturally DON-contaminated wheat as a negative control group. Treatment C was fed with a contaminated diet that also had <i>Clostridium</i> sp. WJ06, which was used as a detoxicant. Growth performance, relative organ weight, intestinal morphology, and the intestinal flora of bacteria and fungi were examined. The results showed that after consuming a DON-contaminated diet, the growth performance of the pigs decreased significantly (<i>p</i> < 0.05), the relative organ weight of the liver and kidney increased significantly (<i>p</i> < 0.05), and the integrity of the intestinal barrier was also impaired, though the toxic effects of the contaminated diets on growing pigs were relieved after adding <i>Clostridium</i> sp. WJ06. The data from MiSeq sequencing of the 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) gene and internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) gene suggested that the abundance of intestinal flora was significantly different across the three treatments. In conclusion, the application of <i>Clostridium</i> sp. WJ06 can reduce the toxic effects of DON and adjust the intestinal microecosystem of growing pigs.

We have observed Josephson coupling between CuO double layers in ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}$${\mathrm{Sr}}_{2}$${\mathrm{CaCu}}_{2}$${\mathrm{O}}_{8}$ single crystals by direct measurements of ac and dc Josephson effects with current flow along the c axis. The results show that a small ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}$${\mathrm{Sr}}_{2}$${\mathrm{CaCu}}_{2}$${\mathrm{O}}_{8}$ single crystal behaves like a series array of Josephson junctions which can exhibit mutual phase locking.
Synthesis and Biological Activity of Methyl N-methoxy-N-[2-substituent-4-chloro-3(2H)-pyridazinone-5-yl-oxymethyl(or mercaptomethyl)phenyl]carbamates (2005)

A series of novel methyl N-methoxy-N-[2-substituent-4-chloro-3(2H)-pyridazinone-5-yl-oxymethyl (or mercaptomethyl) phenyl]carbamates were synthesized from 2-substituent-4-chloro-5-hydroxyl(mercapto)-3(2H)-pyridazinone and methyl N-methoxy-N-(2-bromomethylphenyl)carbamates. All compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, IR and LC-MS. The preliminary biological test showed that some compounds exhibited fungicidal activities against pyricularia oryzae, botrytis cinerea and erysiphe graminis.
An improved pseudoinverse solution for redundant hydraulic manipulators (1999)

The paper deals with the kinematic redundancy control of a 3DOF linear hydraulic manipulator moving in the vertical plane. The analysis is carried out in actuator coordinates so as to make the results usable in control schemes with actuator position feedback. The idea is to use the initial manipulator configuration as an optimization parameter in order to: (I) further minimize the actuator velocities obtained by a pseudoinverse solution, (II) simultaneously avoid actuator limits without recourse to a gradient projection approach. An improved pseudoinverse redundancy solution is thus obtained and implemented in a simple, non-iterative algorithm suitable for real-time applications. Simulations of a typical task with the proposed method show that minimizing the actuator velocity norm yields better results than minimizing the manipulator kinetic energy.

An Experimental Study of Resolved Acceleration Control of Robots at Singularities: Damped Least-Squares Approach (1997)

Most of the robot task space control methods based on inverse Jacobian matrix suffer from instability in singular regions of workspace. Methods based on damped least-squares algorithm (DLS) for matrix inversion have been developed but not experimentally confirmed. The application of DLS method at the kinematic control level has been reported in (Chiaverini et al., 1994). In this article, a modified DLS method combined with the resolved-acceleration control scheme, is experimentally verified on two degrees of freedom of a PUMA-560 robot. In order to decrease the position error introduced by the damping, only small singular values are damped, in contrast to the conventional damping method were all the singular values are damped. The symbolic expressions of the singular value decomposition of the Jacobian matrix were used, to decrease the computational burden.
The Role of Personality Factors in Repeated Route Choice Behavior: Behavioral Economics Perspective (2011)

This paper is based on an in-laboratory experiment and aims to explore the impact of various\npersonality factors on route-choice behavior in the presence of partial pre-trip travel time information.\nSpecifically, these factors are geographic ability and sensation seeking characteristics. The results show\nthat while the variables related to perceived and realized travel times are important, the personality factors\nare also significant. Drivers with lower geographic abilities tended to use the main route more often and\nto switch their routes less often, compared to those with higher capabilities. Drivers who scored higher on\nsensation seeking tended to switch their routes more frequently, compared to other drivers.
