OBJECTIVE Sympathetic denervation and hyperemia are implicated in the pathogenesis of Charcot neuroarthropathy (CN) but are also features of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Differences in these physiological parameters were sought by determining C-fiber function (laser Doppler imager [LDI]flare technique) and maximum microvascular hyperemia (MMH) in 13 subjects with diabetic CN (DCN), 10 ...

This paper introduces two new ideas in the construction of fast universal hash functions geared towards the task of message authen-tication. First, we describe a simple but novel family of universal hash functions that is more eecient than many standard constructions. We compare our hash functions to the MMH family studied by Halevi and Krawczyk 13]. All the main techniques used to optimize MMH...

While researchers have extensively studied the initial decomposition mechanism of Monomethylhydrazine (MMH, CH3NHNH2) in MMH/dinitrogen tetroxide (NTO) system, investigation Unsymmetrical Dimethylhydrazine (UDMH, (CH3)2NNH2) has been limited due to its high toxicity, corrosiveness, and deterioration rate. Hence, effects UDMH’s products on combustion performance gas-phase reaction mechanisms rem...

Hash based search has, proven excellence on large data warehouses stored in column store. Data distribution has significant impact on hash based search. To reduce impact of data distribution, we have proposed Memory Managed Hash (MMH) algorithm that uses shift XOR group for Queries and Transactions in column store. Our experiments show that MMH improves read and write throughput by 22% for TPC-...

Multiresolution Hierarchies (MH) and Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAG) are two recent approaches for the compression of highresolution shadow information. In this paper, we introduce Merged Multiresolution Hierarchies (MMH), a novel data structure that unifies both concepts. An MMH leverages both hierarchical homogeneity exploited in MHs, as well as topological similarities exploited in DAG represe...

Most of studies on Manual Material Handling (MMH) tasks for finding lifting capacity were done on general population; these were not done for underweight, normal weight and overweight workers. MMH task involves the use of the human body to lift, lower or carry loads. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of psychophysical approach on MAWL for underweight, normal weight and overwei...

Abstract Sustainable fishery practices require accurate predictions of fish recruitment—the abundance a new year class entering fishery. A key driver recruitment is the impact predator-prey dynamics experienced during early life stages has on their survival at later stages, as in Match-Mismatch Hypothesis (MMH). MMH states that predator depends match (or mismatch) between timing feeding and pre...

Exponential family Harmoniums (EFH) are undirected topic models that enjoy nice properties such as fast inference compared to directed topic models. Supervised EFHs can utilize documents’ side information for discovering predictive latent topic representations. However, existing likelihood based estimation does not yield conclusive results. This paper presents a max-margin approach to learning ...

One of the current challenges in the systemic delivery of nanoparticles in cancer therapy applications is the lack of effective tumor localization. Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) coated with crosslinked dextran were functionalized with the tumor-homing peptide CREKA, which binds to fibrinogen complexes in the extracellular matrix of tumors. This allows for the homing of these nanoparticles to...
