Let (X,ω, cX ) be a real symplectic 4-manifold with real part RX. Let L ⊂ RX be a smooth curve such that [L] = 0 ∈ H1(RX;Z/2Z). We construct invariants under deformation of the quadruple (X,ω, cX , L) by counting the number of real rational J-holomorphic curves which realize a given homology class d, pass through an appropriate number of points and are tangent to L. As an application, we prove ...

Anomaly detection is attractive for the analysis of hyperpectral imagery. This paper describes an expanded anomaly detection algorithm for small targets in hyperspectral imagery. As a variant of the well known multivariate anomaly detector called RX algorithm, the approach called the dimension reduction RX algorithm (DRRX) is proposed. The analytical fusion strategy is incorporated into the RX ...

Fluorocyclopentenylcytosine (RX-3117) is an orally available cytidine analog, currently in Phase I clinical trial. RX-3117 has promising antitumor activity in various human tumor xenografts including gemcitabine resistant tumors. RX-3117 is activated by uridine-cytidine kinase (UCK). Since UCK exists in two forms, UCK1 and UCK2, we investigated which form is responsible for RX-3117 phosphorylat...

Accumulating evidence suggests that central thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) administration induces gastric erosion 4 h after administration through the vagal nerves. However, early changes in the gastric mucosa during these 4 h have not been described. To assess early changes in the gastric mucosa after intracisternal injection of a stable TRH analog, pGlu-His-(3,3'-dimethyl)-ProNH2 (RX-773...

In this paper we present a nonlinear version of the wellknown anomaly detection method referred to as the RXalgorithm. Extending this algorithm to a feature space associated with the original input space via a certain nonlinear mapping function can provide a nonlinear version of the RX-algorithm. This nonlinear RX-algorithm, referred to as the kernel RX-algorithm, is basically intractable mainl...

Serotonin (5-HT) interacts with thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) at the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) to augment TRH-induced stimulation of gastric acid secretion. To investigate the 5-HT receptor family involved in the augmentation response, prototypical 5-HT receptor-selective agonists (146 pmol) were coinjected with the TRH analog RX-77368 (RX; 12 pmol) into the rat DVC in a 30-nl volume. Th...

This research involves simulating remote sensing conditions using previously collected hyperspectral imagery (HSI) data. The Reed–Xiaoli (RX) anomaly detector is well-known for its unsupervised ability to detect anomalies in hyperspectral images. However, the RX detector assumes uncorrelated and homogeneous data, both of which are not inherent in HSI data. To address this difficulty, we propose...

We report the discovery of two new AM Herculis systems (polars), identified as the optical V∼19 mag and V∼20 mag counterparts of the soft X-ray sources RX J2022.6−3954 and RX J0132.7−6554 detected during the ROSAT All-Sky Survey and present the results of our optical and X-ray follow-up observations. From the cyclotron emission lines detected in the optical spectra we determine magnetic field s...

PURPOSE The goals of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) are the ablation of target tissue and sparing of critical normal tissue. We develop tools to aid in the selection of collimation and prescription (Rx) isodose line to optimize the dose gradient for single isocenter intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) with GammaKnife 4C utilizing the updated physics data in GammaPlan v10.1. METHODS ...

Repeaters have been widely used to improve communication quality and extend the coverage areas of wireless systems. However, mutual coupling between Tx Rx antennas significantly deteriorates performance repeater This work presents a high-isolation antenna operating in frequency range 3.6–3.7 GHz 5G system. Perpendicularly arranged microstrip patch are because this arrangement can lead greater i...
