Transitivity in semantic relation learning (2010)

Text understanding models exploit semantic networks of words as basic components. Automatically enriching and expanding these resources is then an important challenge for NLP. Existing models for enriching semantic resources based on lexical-syntactic patterns make little use of structural properties of target semantic relations. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to include transitivity in probabilistic models for expanding semantic resources. We directly include transitivity in the formulation of probabilistic models. Experiments demonstrate that these models are an effective way for exploiting structural properties of relations in learning semantic networks.
Performance Analysis of Microstrip Ring Hybrid Power Divider (2011)

Wavelet-based method for reducing respiratory interference in thoracic electrical bioimpedance (2002)

The measurements of the thoracic electrical bioimpedance (TEB) are useful for the research on the cardiac functions and in clinical diagnosis. However, TEB is usually contaminated by very heavy respiratory interference. The uses of digital filtering, signal averaging and adaptive processing to remove the respiratory interference have some problems respectively. In this paper, the wavelet-based method for cancellation of respiratory interference is proposed. The continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) are used for the de-respiration. The result of the method of the discrete wavelet transform is satisfactory and the simulated signal is used to prove its accuracy. The de-noising technique based on the discrete wavelet transform is proved to be easy, fast and effective. It can also be applied to other biosignals for denoising.

유아기 외현화 문제행동 궤적과 초등 1학년 학업수행 능력과의 종단적 관계 (2019)

본 연구는 유아기 외현화 문제행동의 궤적을 유형화 하고 문제행동 궤적 유형에 따라 초등1학년 때 교사가 평가한 아동의 학업수행 능력에 차이가 있는 가를 밝히는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 한국아동패널에 참여한 1,777명 아동의 만 4세부터 6세 까지 3년 동안 외현화 문제행동 수준을 혼합성장모형을 통해 궤적화 하였다. 또한 공변량 분석을 활용하여 궤적에 따른 아동의 학업수행 능력에 차이가 있는지 검증하였다. 그 결과 유아기 외현화 문제행동 궤적은 낮음(68.5%), 보통(25.2%), 높음(6.3)의 세 유형으로 나타났다. 또한 초등학교 1학년 때 학업수행 능력은 유아기 문제행동 궤적에 따라 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 높음 집단의 아동들이 낮음과 보통 집단의 아동들보다 교사가 평가한 국어, 수학, 전반적 학업 수행 능력이 유의하게 낮았다. 본 연구를 통해 유아기 외현화문제행동과 초등학교 저학년 학업수행 능력 간에 유의미한 종단적 관계가 있음이 확인되었다. 유아기 문제행동으로 인해 아동들이 초등학교 적응과 학업에 어려움을 겪지 않도록 가능한 조기에 고 위험군 아동을 적극적으로 선별하고 중재하는 것이 필요하다.
Tolerating multiple failures in RAID architectures with optimal storage and uniform declustering (1997)

We present D ATUM , a novel method for tolerating multiple disk failures in disk arrays. D ATUM is the first known method that can mask any given number of failures, requires an optimal amount of redundant storage space, and spreads reconstruction accesses uniformly over disks in the presence of failures without needing large layout tables in controller memory. Our approach is based on information dispersal, a coding technique that admits an efficient hardware implementation. As the method does not restrict the configuration parameters of the disk array, many existing RAID organizations are particular cases of D ATUM . A detailed performance comparison with two other approaches shows that D ATUM'S response times are similar to those of the best competitor when two or less disks fail, and that the performance degrades gracefully when more than two disks fail.

Sitaxsentan Therapy for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (2003)

Sitaxsentan may benefit patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension by blocking the vasoconstrictor effects of endothelin-A while maintaining the vasodilator/clearance functions of endothelin-B receptors. Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension that was idiopathic, related to connective tissue disease or congenital heart disease, were randomized to receive placebo (n = 60), sitaxsentan 100 mg (n = 55), or sitaxsentan 300 mg (n = 63) orally once daily for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was change in peak VO(2) at Week 12. Secondary endpoints included 6-minute walk, New York Heart Association class, VO(2) at anaerobic threshold, VE per carbon dioxide production at anaerobic threshold, hemodynamics, quality of life, and time to clinical worsening. Although the 300-mg group increased peak VO(2) compared with placebo (+3.1%, p < 0.01), none of the other endpoints derived from cardiopulmonary exercise testing were met. However, both the 100-mg dose and the 300-mg dose, compared with placebo, increased 6-minute walk distance (100 mg: +35 m, p < 0.01; 300 mg: +33 m, p < 0.01); functional class, cardiac index, and pulmonary vascular resistance also improved (p < 0.02 for each parameter at both doses). The incidence of elevated aminotransferase values (> three times normal) was 3% for the placebo group, 0% for the 100-mg group, and 10% for the 300-mg group.

General Treatment of the Effect of Cell Windows in Ellipsometry* (1971)

A general analysis of the effect of cell windows shows more error terms in each of the four ellipsometry zones than is found in the conventional small-retardation wave-plate approximation. The value of ψ from a two-zone average requires a correction that is generally dependent on both the window and the reflecting surface under study. A difference of the flux transmission in the s direction from that in the p direction as small as 10−6 leads to an appreciable correction ∼0.06°. An experimental procedure to correct for window error is described and is applied to three different types of windows with Δ errors from 0.05° to 1.5°.
Unique Subpopulations of CD56+ NK and NK-T Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes Identified by Chemokine Receptor Expression Repertoire (2001)

CD56, an adhesion molecule closely related to neural cell adhesion molecule, is an immunophenotypic marker for several unique populations of PBLS: Although CD56(+) cells derive from multiple lymphocyte lineages, they share a role in immunosurveillance and antitumor responses. We have studied the chemokine receptor expression patterns and functional migratory responses of three distinct CD56(+) populations from human peripheral blood. NK-T cells were found to differ greatly from NK cells, and CD16(+) NK cells from CD16(-) NK cells. CD16(+) NK cells were the predominant population responding to IL-8 and fractalkine, whereas NK-T cells were the predominant population responding to the CCR5 ligand macrophage-inflammatory protein-1beta. CD16(-) NK cells were the only CD56(+) population that uniformly expressed trafficking molecules necessary for homing into secondary lymphoid organs through high endothelial venule. These findings describe a diverse population of cells that may have trafficking patterns entirely different from each other, and from other lymphocyte types.
Optimized structure of sputtered garnet disks (1989)

The optimum structure of the sputtered garnet magnetooptical disk was investigated by numerical calculations and experiments. From the Faraday rotation, Faraday ellipticity, refractive index, and extinction coefficient, the authors determined the dielectric tensor elements of a sputtered garnet film. Using these values, they calculated the thickness dependence of the magnetooptical rotation angle, the reflectivity, and the reproduced signal amplitude of the disk with a reflecting layer. These results were then compared with measurements. The optimum garnet thickness and reflector material for a sputtered garnet disk were found. The optimum structure has a carrier/noise ratio of 60 dB at a carrier frequency of 0.6 MHz and possesses good recording sensitivity.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
EVENT INFORMATION EXTRACTION FROM E-MAIL AND UPDATING EVENT IN CALENDAR (2018)

Digitization has sneaked into every aspect of our life. These days most of the people receive a very large number of emails. Emails are also used to send information about events and invitations. People add these events, invitations to a calendar or reminder like app manually. But checking the email from email inbox and adding the event details manually to a calendar or reminder app is bit time taking. This paper, presents a NLP based web browser extension which can detect events and extract them to add into a calendar or reminder autonomously with user consent. The email text goes through a lexical analyzer and it splits the email text into tokens. These tokens are taken as input by the tagging phase. Then a parser constructs parse tree, using a specific grammar, which gives us event details such as time, place, date etc. After extraction, these event details can be mapped into a calendar if the user wants.
Source/Filter Model for Unsupervised Main Melody Extraction From Polyphonic Audio Signals (2010)

Extracting the main melody from a polyphonic music recording seems natural even to untrained human listeners. To a certain extent it is related to the concept of source separation, with the human ability of focusing on a specific source in order to extract relevant information. In this paper, we propose a new approach for the estimation and extraction of the main melody (and in particular the leading vocal part) from polyphonic audio signals. To that aim, we propose a new signal model where the leading vocal part is explicitly represented by a specific source/filter model. The proposed representation is investigated in the framework of two statistical models: a Gaussian Scaled Mixture Model (GSMM) and an extended Instantaneous Mixture Model (IMM). For both models, the estimation of the different parameters is done within a maximum-likelihood framework adapted from single-channel source separation techniques. The desired sequence of fundamental frequencies is then inferred from the estimated parameters. The results obtained in a recent evaluation campaign (MIREX08) show that the proposed approaches are very promising and reach state-of-the-art performances on all test sets.
Use of Venturi Entrainment Mask for High-Flow Ventilation of Patients Submitting to Ophthalmic Surgery Under Local Anesthesia (1981)

The venturi entrainment mask is an inexpensive, disposable item readily available from the respiratory therapy department of most hospitals, which can be used with the patients submitting to ophthalmic surgery under local anesthesia to provide low oxygen concentration, high-flow ventilation at nearly room temperature and humidity. Four liters of oxygen will entrain an additional 101 liters of room air using the 24% uptake valve. This high-flow ventilation system eliminates hypercarbia since the patient never rebreathes. The mask elevates the drapes comfortably off the patient's face without dislodging and reduces the danger of flash fire with the use of thermal electrocautery.
Recent applications of binder treatment technology (1998)

The development of a practical binder treatment process in the late 1980's has since led to the commercialization of several new premix technologies that have had a major impact on P/M competitiveness. To date, a great deal has been written about these technologies. However, until now, there has been little to suggest that they are inherently interrelated by a common approach, or that this approach has untapped potential for still newer and better technologies. In addition, it also happens that in spite of all that has been written on the existing technologies, there is nothing that serves as a comprehensive single source of information on all of them. Consequently, the purpose of the present paper is to document the indicated approach as well as to present a summary description of each of the technologies complete with one or more production case histories of recent origin. The aim of the latter is to present discriminating up-to-date examples of general interest as well as to highlight one or more of the various advantages of the associated technology.
Multi-address transmission system for still pictures via ISDN (1993)

Our new multi-address transmission system, which supports a recently issued TTC standard, solves problems limiting still picture communication through ISDN. Although high-resolution still pictures have recently become available in only a few seconds through ISDN, transmission was only possible between terminals of the same type. Moreover, it was limited to one-to-one communication because protocols are not intended for other usage. By using the multi-destination delivery protocol in the «Still Video Communication over ISDN» enacted in May 7993 by the TTC, this system can provide new applications of one-to-multipoint communication compatible with other types of still picture transmission terminals
Mobile Browser as a Second Factor for Web Authentication (2011)

People's increasingly relying on web applications to manage their digital assets makes web authentication a critical security issue. As most websites today still authenticate a user with only username and password, the authentication credentials can be easily compromised in a vulnerable browsing environment without the owner's notice. Considering the browsing in mobile devices is more secure than personal computers, in this paper we explore the One-Time Password web application running inside mobile browsers as a second authentication factor for high value websites in hostile browsing environments. We discuss the security and efficiency of this authentication method from both theory and practice. An implementation with performance evaluation is also provided to prove our concept.
Cleavage of membrane secretory component to soluble secretory component occurs on the cell surface of rat hepatocyte monolayers. (1987)

Rat liver secretory component is synthesized as an integral membrane protein (mSC) and cleaved to an 80-kD soluble form (fSC) sometime during transcellular transport from the sinusoidal to the bile canalicular plasma membrane domain of hepatocytes. We have used 24-h monolayer cultures of rat hepatocytes to characterize the conversion of mSC to fSC. Cleavage of mSC in cultured hepatocytes is inhibited by the thiol protease inhibitors leupeptin, antipain, and E-64, but not by other inhibitors, including disopropylfluorophosphate, pepstatin, N-ethylmalemide, p-chloromercuribenzoic acid, and chloroquine. Leupeptin-mediated inhibition of cleavage is concentration dependent and reversible. In the presence or absence of leupeptin, only 10-20% of mSC is accessible at the cell surface. To characterize the behavior of surface as opposed to intracellular mSC, cell surface mSC was labeled with 125I by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination at 4 degrees C. Cell surface 125I-mSC was converted to extracellular fSC at 4 degrees C in the absence of detectable internalization. Cleavage was inhibited by leupeptin and by anti-secretory component antiserum. Cleavage also occurred at 4 degrees C after cell disruption. In contrast, 125I-mSC that had been internalized from the cell surface was not converted to fSC at 4 degrees C in either intact or disrupted cells. Hepatocytes metabolically labeled with [35S]cys also released small quantities of fSC into the medium at 4 degrees C. The properties of fSC production indicate that cleavage occurs on the surface of cultured rat hepatocytes and not intracellularly. Other features of the cleavage reaction suggest that the mSC-cleaving protease is segregated from the majority of cell surface mSC, possibly within a specialized plasma membrane domain.
Friedreich Ataxia Mouse Models with Progressive Cerebellar and Sensory Ataxia Reveal Autophagic Neurodegeneration in Dorsal Root Ganglia (2004)

Friedreich ataxia (FRDA), the most common recessive ataxia, is characterized by degeneration of the large sensory neurons of the spinal cord and cardiomyopathy. It is caused by severely reduced levels of frataxin, a mitochondrial protein involved in iron-sulfur cluster (ISC) biosynthesis. Through a spatiotemporally controlled conditional gene-targeting approach, we have generated two mouse models for FRDA that specifically develop progressive mixed cerebellar and sensory ataxia, the most prominent neurological features of FRDA. Histological studies showed both spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) anomalies with absence of motor neuropathy, a hallmark of the human disease. In addition, one line revealed a cerebellar granule cell loss, whereas both lines had Purkinje cell arborization defects. These lines represent the first FRDA models with a slowly progressive neurological degeneration. We identified an autophagic process as the causative pathological mechanism in the DRG, leading to removal of mitochondrial debris and apparition of lipofuscin deposits. These mice therefore represent excellent models for FRDA to unravel the pathological cascade and to test compounds that interfere with the degenerative process.
<i>Chlamydophila psittaci</i>Transmission from Pet Birds to Humans (2007)

We studied zoonotic transmission of Chlamydophila psittaci in 39 breeding facilities for Psittaciformes (cockatoos, parrots, parakeets, lories) that frequently used antimicrobial drugs. Genotypes A or E/B were detected in 14.9% of humans at these facilities. Information on antimicrobial drug use in Psittaciformes and a C. psittaci vaccine are urgently required.
Nucleoside-nucleotide mixture increases peripheral neutrophils in cyclophosphamide-induced neutropenic mice. (1996)

The importance of nucleotides and nucleosides in human nutrition has now become an area of intensive research and clinical interest. To determine any potential benefits of administering a nucleoside-nucleotide mixture (NNM) to cyclophosphamide (CPA)-induced neutropenic mice, we randomly assigned 20 BALB/c mice to two groups and fed them a nucleic-acid-free 20%-casein diet for 20 days. The mice were intraperitoneally administered NNM or saline daily from the onset of the experiment. On the 10th day of this treatment, the mice were intraperitoneally injected with CPA. Blood was collected retro-orbitally and differential counts of leucocytes were done on blood smears by counting microscopically on day 0 (before) and 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 days after CPA injection. By the 7th and 10th days after CPA injection, respectively, the peripheral neutrophil number in the saline group was significantly lower compared with the neutrophil number in the NNM group (p < 0.05). Also in the NNM group, more clusters of matured neutrophils were observed compared with the saline group. These results suggest that NNM may stimulate the proliferation, differentiation, and maturation of neutrophils, and that NNM alone or in combination with other pharmacologic agents may be an important therapeutic agent in patients after chemotherapy, immunosuppressive therapy, and organ transplant.

Effect of Solution Composition on Soil Hydraulic Conductivity (1966)

Abstract Decreases in hydraulic conductivity with decreasing electrolyte concentration and increasing sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) of the percolating solution were assessed for seven soils of varying clay mineralogy. The decreases were particularly pronounced for soils high in 2:1 layer‐silicates, with the most labile hydraulic conductivities being exhibited by those soils containing the most montmorillonite. A soil containing considerable amorphous material was much more stable then the average, and a soil high in kaolinite and sesquioxides was virtually insensitive to variations in solution composition. No property of the solution alone was sufficient to characterize the response of the soils to a given solution, though expression of results in terms of the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) of the soil and the total salt concentration of the ambient solution produced more nearly similar curves for soils of similar clay mineralogy. The soils commonly demonstrated rather pronounced hydraulic conductivity decreases in the ESP range of 20 to 35 at salt concentrations of 3 to 50 meq/liter. The decreases were largely irreversible upon the reapplication of high salt or high Ca solutions to the soil, except for those soils containing greater than 10% montmorillonite on a whole‐soil basis.
Preparation of new conducting Langmuir–Blodgett films based on an ethylenedithiodioctadecylthiotetrathiafulvalene charge transfer complex (1988)

Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors and bivalirudin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. (2012)

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is currently the standard of care for patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), as well those patients with "stable" angina who have failed medical therapy in whom PCI is an acceptable alternative to surgical revascularization. The aim of adjunctive antiplatelet and antithrombotic therapy during PCI is to alleviate the risks associated with platelet activation and aggregation, iatrogenic plaque rupture, and thrombus formation during. The aim of this review is to summarize the evidence that has emerged from the randomized studies comparing a strategy combining heparin and a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor (GPI) with that of bivalirudin in patients undergoing elective and urgent PCI.
S-band reflection type variable attenuator (2002)

A reflection type variable attenuator is described in this letter. The main component of the circuit is a microstrip 3 dB quadrature coupler. The coupler is used in conjunction with two varactor diodes to vary the attenuation from 2.2 dB to 17 dB over a 40% bandwidth (2.8-4.2 GHz). If married with a programmable voltage controller, the proposed design will provide a low-cost solution for applications with narrow instantaneous bandwidth.
Area and latency optimized high-throughput Min-Sum based LDPC decoder architectures (2009)

Low density parity check codes (LDPC) achieve bit error rates close to the Shannon limit. Therefore, codes with large block lengths are required. These codes lead to high block latencies and especially to complex decoders, which are contrary to the demanded high throughput rates. Mainly two high throughput decoder architectures are known. A bit-parallel architecture yields in a small block latency and a high throughput rate while a bit-serial architecture features a small silicon area. We present a systematic search for high-throughput min-sum based LDPC decoder architectures leading to a set of AT-efficient architectures. In comparison to other decoder implementations accurate cost models predict a 60 % reduction in AT-complexity. Furthermore, the introduction of a digit-serial communication enables a trade-off between area and throughput rate retaining the low AT-complexity.
