The presented research work represent a highly robust and efficient parallel computing system development for biological gene sequencing. In this research work, the existing approaches has optimized the most optimum approach available till date in the form of Smithy Waterman algorithm for gene alignment or local gene sequencing. This paper mainly emphasizes on the system development for a trace...

While most of the recent improvements in multiple sequence alignment accuracy are due to better use of vertical information, which include the incorporation of consistency-based pairwise alignments and the use of profile alignments, we observe that it is possible to further improve accuracy by taking into account alignment of neighboring residues when aligning two residues, thus making better u...

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES The creation of two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound mosaics is becoming a common clinical practice with a high clinical value. The next step coming along with the increasing availability of 2D array transducers is the creation of three-dimensional mosaics. The correct alignment of multiple ultrasound images is, however, a complex task. In the literature of ultrasound regist...

Despite the fact that non-level walking is known to be important for prosthesis fitting, its clinical significance has not been investigated. In this study, the acceptable prosthesis alignment ranges of six subjects with transtibial amputation on level and non-level walking were determined and compared. With the aid of a recently developed alignment jig, prosthesis fitting was performed for eac...

Optimizing highway alignments is a very complex engineering problem. None of existing methods has totally solved the problem In this paper we build an optimization model for highway 3D alignment based on two-stage dynamic programming, in which the comprehensive cost and design constraints are embedded. In the first stage: we formulate the optimization of alignment as a network problem by establ...

BACKGROUND Inferior oblique muscle overaction of variable amounts is usually present with congenital superior oblique palsy. Inferior oblique muscle anteriorization has been described as a suitable surgical procedure in this entity. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of inferior oblique muscle anteriorization in patients with congenital superior oblique palsy on vertical, torsi...

PURPOSE To investigate immediate and long-term changes in static ocular alignment with acute acquired superior oblique palsy (SOP) in monkeys. METHODS The trochlear nerve was severed intracranially in two rhesus monkeys. After the surgery, the paretic eye was patched for 6 to 9 days, and then binocular viewing was allowed. Three-axis eye movements (horizontal, vertical, and torsional) were me...

The proposed influence of objects that are visible to both eyes on the perceived direction of an object that is seen by only one eye is known as the "capture of binocular visual direction". The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether stereoscopic depth perception is necessary for the "capture of binocular visual direction" to occur. In one pair of experiments, perceived alignment between ...

Squats, drop jumps, and imitation jumps are commonly used training exercises in ski jumping to enhance maximum force, explosive force, and sport-specific skills. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the kinetics and kinematics of training exercises in ski jumping and to find objective parameters in training exercises that most correlate with the competition performance of ski jumpers. To t...

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) are members of the Cys-loop ligand-gated ion channel superfamily. Muscle nAChR are heteropentamers that assemble from two α, and one each of β, γ, and δ subunits. Each subunit is composed of three domains, extracellular, transmembrane and intracellular. The transmembrane domain consists of four α-helical segments (M1-M4). Pioneering structural informati...
