Emiria Soendjojo is a senior majoring in food science. As a sophomore in Dr. Lisa Mauer’s lab, she learned standard microbiological laboratory techniques and applied them to the analysis of fresh produce obtained from grocery stores and farmers’ markets. Following this research experience, Soendjojo worked with H. J. Heinz Company in Escalon, California, as a microbiologist intern on a spoilage...

11 TransRate is a tool for reference-free quality assessment of de novo transcriptome assemblies. 12 Using only sequenced reads as the input, TransRate measures the quality of individual contigs 13 and whole assemblies, enabling assembly optimization and comparison. TransRate can 14 accurately evaluate assemblies of conserved and novel RNA molecules of any kind in any 15 species. We show that i...

Morphological filters based on the composition of openings and closings called alternating sequential filters are examined and their noise suppression action is investigated. Also they are compared with conventional filters then from the results it is found that alternating sequential filters are better than these filters in impulse noise removing.

This paper presents an improved approach for periodic estimating the reliability and energy consumption of SSDs. The reliability estimation has been considered to enhance the energy efficiency on the SSD based RAID-6 system. We also present additional layered architecture for reliable energy-aware RAID-6 system. The proposed method mainly differs from existing techniques in that data pages are ...

M aternal and Child health is a global priority. Numerous treaties, initiatives and programmes have been formulated to try and improve the health and well-being of pregnant women and mothers and their children. The latest effort is the Millennium Development Goals that aim to inspire countries to drastically reduce maternal and child mortality and address specific disease and related challenges...

This work addresses the problem of denoising of range data obtained by ToF continuous signal modulation camera working in low-power mode. The proposed approach is based on non-local mean filtering applied over extensive spatio-temporal block search in complex-valued signal domain. The extensive search allows for using shorter integration times of the range sensors and leads to an effective over...

E-government projects are getting a strong attention from the UAE government, keen on using this technology to facilitate its services to citizens and customers. In Dubai, e-Government's target is ambitious: it is required that over 90 per cent of the services on offer from the key government departments in Dubai are offered online by the end of 2007. E-government projects can easily be put at ...

Given an English paragraph of sufficient length, I would like to figure out the gender of the author with sufficiently high accuracy. I wrote a Naïve-Bayes classifier with the assistance of NLTK toolkit, and trained it with frequent words as the main features. The addition of frequent bigrams, trigrams and also part-of-speech tags slightly increased its accuracy. There are some obvious indicato...
