Wnt signaling regulates many aspects of metazoan development, including stem cells. In C. elegans, Wnt/MAPK signaling controls asymmetric divisions. A recent model proposed that the POP-1/TCF DNA binding protein works together with SYS-1/beta-catenin to activate transcription of target genes in response to Wnt/MAPK signaling. The somatic gonadal precursor (SGP) divides asymmetrically to generat...

Recently, it was shown that proportional relationships exist between systolic, diastolic and mean pulmonary artery pressure (P(sys), P(dia) and P(mean)) and that they are maintained under various conditions in both health and disease. An arterial-ventricular interaction model was used to study the contribution of model parameters to the ratios P(sys)/P(mean), and P(dia)/P(mean). The heart was m...

In this paper, we motivate the need for a publicly available, generic software framework for question-answering (QA) systems. We present an open-source QA framework QANUS which researchers can leverage on to build new QA systems easily and rapidly. The framework implements much of the code that will otherwise have been repeated across different QA systems. To demonstrate the utility and practic...

We show that a simple low-dimensional representation of movie patches, namely local spectral energy, can be used to predict where people will look in dynamic natural scenes. We then present a gaze-contingent display that modifies local spectral energy in real time. This modification of the saliency distribution of the scene leads to a change in eye movement statistics. Our research aims at the ...

In this paper, a tree decomposition model for eye blink detection is presented. The work is defined as a layered model for identification of human object over the video and identifying the moment based analysis over the video frames. At first the object region is identified and then the decomposition model is applied for eye blink identification based on featured map. The results show that the ...

The ABO blood group was discovered in 1900 by Austrian scientist, Karl Landsteiner. At present, the International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT) approves as 29 human blood group systems. The ABO blood group system consists of four antigens (A, B, O and AB). These antigens are known as oligosaccharide antigens, and widely expressed on the membranes of red cell and tissue cells as well as, i...
