Introduction. Compound Muscle Action Potential (CMAP) scan is a noninvasive promissory technique for neurodegenerative pathologies diagnosis. In this work new CMAP scan protocols were implemented to study the influence of electrical pulse waveform on peripheral nerve excitability. Methods. A total of 13 healthy subjects were tested. Stimulation was performed with an increasing intensities range...

BACKGROUND Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a unique cancer. Refinement of current therapy by discovering potential drugs may be approached by several computational strategies. METHODS We collected NPC genes from published microarray data and the literature. The NPC disease network was constructed via a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. The Connectivity Map (CMap) was used to predic...

All muscle contractions are dependent on the functioning of motor units. In diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), progressive loss of motor units leads to gradual paralysis. A major difficulty in the search for a treatment for these diseases has been the lack of a reliable measure of disease progression. One possible measure would be an estimate of the number of surviving motor ...

Given an application problem, a hardware-software solution is derived such that the synthesized software , a parallel pseudo-program, can be scheduled and executed on the synthesized hardware, a set of system-level parallel computer speciications, with heuristically optimal performance. This is known as system-level cosynthesis of application-oriented general-purpose parallel systems for which ...

In the framework of Galichon, Henry-Labordère and Touzi [9], we consider the model-free no-arbitrage bound of variance option given the marginal distributions of the underlying asset. We first make some approximations which restrict the computation on a bounded domain. Then we propose a gradient projection algorithm together with a finite difference scheme to approximate the bound. The general ...
