We describe a method for representing the structure of repeating sequences in nucleic-acids, proteins and other texts. A portion of the sequence is presented at the bottom of a CRT screen. Above the sequence is its landscape, which looks like a mountain range. Each mountain corresponds to a subsequence of the sequence. At the peak of every mountain is written the number of times that the subseq...

In Experiment 1, antialiasing was found to improve performance on an orientation-discrimination task, whereas increasing display pixelcount did not. The latter finding was attributed to a decrease in image contrast associated with driving the CRT beyond its effective bandwidth. In Experiment 2, it was found that display resolution is the primary determinant of orientation-discrimination perform...

A true 3D image is synthesised from many 2D views of the original. The views are presented in rapid succession on a CRT whose field of view is restricted to a different zone for each view. This restriction is achieved by using optical fourier transforms which result in a 3D image that is especially sharp and clear. The display is bulky but inherently robust and flexible. It is therefore well ad...

A design is considered for a CsI photocathode incorporating a proportional wire anode plane. This would have the advantage over the previously considered mesh anode or near wire anode that the anode wires could be moved further away from the cathode pads, allowing position to be determined using interpolation of imaged charge. This would enable comparable or superior position resolution with la...

In this paper, we study a color reproduction method to match the appearance of skin color images on CRT with a hardcopy under various viewing illuminants. Three color appearance models, von Kries, Fairchild and CIELAB, were applied to predict color reproduction on CRT display. Optimum color appearance model to predict color reproduction was estimated by psychophysical experiments based on the m...

COD is usually measured and the test is simple and easy to perform with the right equipment and can be done in 2 hours. BOD usually takes 5 days and TOC used to require large expensive pieces of equipment that could measure the sample in minutes, but was cost prohibitive. There are now test in tube kits that utilize COD digestors to run a test similar to a COD test method. Below are more detail...

CRTS: A type system for representing clinical recommendations Abstract Background: Clinical guidelines and recommendations are the driving wheels of the evidencebased medicine (EBM) paradigm, but these are available primarily as unstructured text and are generally highly heterogeneous in nature. This significantly reduces the dissemination and automatic application of these recommendations at t...

The purpose of this study was to provide insights into the eBook market in China through case studies on eBook companies and a survey research with individual eBook users. The information from three companies, Beijing Superstar Electric Company, Beijing Founder APABI Technology Limited, and Beijing Sursen Electronic Technology Company Limited, showed that the B2B market has been developed due t...

Stable Strontium. Elemental strontium (atomic number 38) occurs naturally in the earth's mantle as a mixture of four stable isotopes, Sr, Sr, Sr, and Sr, and is present everywhere in very dilute concentrations. It is very similar to calcium in its environmental and physiological behavior. Strontium is generally found in molecular compounds with other elements. Commercially important strontium m...
