A scheme for synthesis of subsystem state-space models to be used for analysis of dynamic behavior of built-up linear structures is presented. Using measurements on each component, subsystem models are identified adopting contemporary system identification methods. The subsystem state-space models are transformed into a coupling form, at which kinematic constraints and equilibrium conditions fo...

THERE has been an increasing interest in the research on multimedia indexing and retrieval based on subjective concepts, such as emotion, preference and aesthetics. The research efforts in this direction are considered human-centered and beyond the conventional keywordor (semantic) object-based multimedia analysis paradigm [1]. In addition, the problems addressed by these efforts are considered...

This paper introduces an auto-configuration system that is intended to enable people with very basic computer networking skills to set up a router network from opensource software and commodity PC hardware. Our system is composed of three subsystems: Operating System autoinstallation subsystem, IP address auto-assignment subsystem, and OSPF auto-configuration subsystem. We have implemented the ...

We explore an exact duality in $(2+1)$d between the fermionization of a bosonic theory with $\mathbb{Z}_2$ subsystem symmetry and fermionic fermion parity symmetry. A typical example is plaquette Ising model model. first revisit standard boson-fermion $(1+1)$d 0-from symmetry, presenting way generalizable to $(2+1)$d. proceed establish on lattice by using generalized Jordan-Wigner map, careful ...

We demonstrate propagation rules of subsystem code constructions by extending, shortening and combining given subsystem codes. Given an [[n, k, r, d]]q subsystem code, we drive new subsystem codes with parameters [[n + 1, k, r,≥ d]]q, [[n − 1, k + 1, r,≥ d − 1]]q , [[n, k − 1, r + 1, d]]q . We present the short subsystem codes. The interested readers shall consult our companion papers for upper...

Olfactory signals influence social interactions in a variety of species. In mammals, pheromones and other social cues can promote mating or aggression behaviors; can communicate information about social hierarchies, genetic identity and health status; and can contribute to associative learning. However, the molecular, cellular, and neural mechanisms underlying many olfactory-mediated social int...

In the hardwarelsoftware design of control systems it is almost an article of faith to decompose a system into loosely coupled subsystems, with state variables encapsulated in device and subsystem objects. The engineering advantages of such an approach are so attractive that it is sometimes applied inappropriately, yielding a design that hides a tangle of special-case subsystem-to-subsystem cou...

BACKGROUND Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder characterized by debilitating re-experiencing, avoidance, and hyperarousal symptoms following trauma exposure. Recent evidence suggests that individuals with PTSD show disrupted functional connectivity in the default mode network, an intrinsic network that consists of a midline core, a medial temporal lobe (MTL) subsystem...
