Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon (KMP) is relatively rare in childhood and adolescents with high mortality rate because of its hemorrhagic complications and unresponsiveness to treatments such as corticosteroids, vincristine, intravascular embolization, and/or surgery. Propranolol, a β -adrenergic receptor blocker, has a promising efficacy against vascular tumors such as infantile hemangiomas. But l...

Conventional vision algorithms adopt a single type of feature or a simple concatenation of multiple features, which is always represented in a high-dimensional space. In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised spectral embedding algorithm called Kernelized Multiview Projection (KMP) to better fuse and embed different feature representations. Computing the kernel matrices from different feat...

The domains of data mining and knowledge discovery make use of large amounts of textual data, which need to be handled efficiently. Specific problems, like finding the maximum weight ordered common subset of a set of ordered sets or searching for specific patterns within texts, occur frequently in this context. In this paper we present several novel and practical algorithmic techniques for proc...

We consider several open problems of Karhum aki, Mignosi, and Plandowski, cf. [KMP], concerning the expressibility of languages and relations as solutions of word equations. We show rst that the (scattered) subword relation is not expressible. Then, we consider the set of k-power free nite words and solve it negativelly for all nontrivial integer values of k. Finally, we consider the Fibonacci...

Imitation learning has been studied widely as a convenient way to transfer human skills to robots. This learning approach is aimed at extracting relevant motion patterns from human demonstrations and subsequently applying these patterns to different situations. Despite many advancements have been achieved, the solutions for coping with unpredicted situations (e.g., obstacles and external pertur...

The kinetoplastid membrane protein 11 (KMP-11) has been recently described in Leishmania (Leishmania) donovani as a major component of the promastigote membrane. Two oligonucleotide primers were synthesized to PCR-amplify the entire encoding region of New World Leishmania species. The Leishmania (Viannia) panamensis amplification product was clone, sequenced and the putative amino acid sequence...

The Knuth–Morris–Pratt (KMP) pattern-matching algorithm guarantees both independence from alphabet size and worst-case execution time linear in the pattern length; on the other hand, the Boyer–Moore (BM) algorithm provides near-optimal average-case and best-case behaviour, as well as executing very fast in practice. We describe a simple algorithm that employs the main ideas of KMP and BM (with ...

BACKGROUND Antigen specificity and IgG subclass could be significant in the natural history of Chagas' disease. The relationship between the different stages of human Chagas' disease and the profiles of total IgG and its subclasses were thus analysed here; they were directed against a crude T. cruzi extract and three recombinant antigens: the T. cruzi kinetoplastid membrane protein-11 (rKMP-11)...

conclusions the results of the present study will increase our knowledge about molecular cloning and expression of the l. infantum kmp-11 gene, and this may be used as an effective target for controlling visceral leishmaniasis. results the kmp-11 gene was successfully subcloned in pcdna3 as a eukaryotic expression vector. recombinant kmp-11 protein was confirmed by the reverse transcriptase pol...
