Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) images have been used to investigate the mechanism of optical clearing in flowing blood using dextrans. The depth reflectivity profiles from SDOCT indicate that dextrans become increasingly more effective in reducing scattering in flowing blood, except for 5 mgdl(-1) of Dx500, with increasing molecular weights (MW 70,000 and 500,000) and conc...

Species tree estimation from multiple markers is complicated by the fact that gene trees can differ from each other (and from the true species tree) due to several biological processes, one of which is gene duplication and loss. Local search heuristics for two NP-hard optimization problems - minimize gene duplications (MGD) and minimize gene duplications and losses (MGDL) - are popular techniqu...

Quality of General Game Playing (GGP) matches suffers from slow state-switching and weak knowledge modules. Instantiation and Propositional Networks offer great performance gains over Prolog-based reasoning, but do not scale well. In this publication mGDL, a variant of GDL stripped of function constants, has been defined as a basis for simple reasoning machines. mGDL allows to easily map rules ...

Localization is a fundamental problem in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we consider how to localize individual nodes in a wireless sensor network when some subset of the network nodes can be in motion at any given time. For situations in which it is not practical or costefficient to use GPS or anchor nodes, this paper proposes an Anchor-Free (AF) Mobile Geographic Distributed Localiza...

Please answer to the point, and do not spend time/space giving irrelevant details. Please state any additional assumptions you make while answering the questions. For Questions 1 to 5, 6(b) and 6(c), you need to submit your answers in a single PDF file on autolab, either a scanned handwritten version or a LTEXpdf file. Please make sure you write legibly for grading. For Question 6(a), submit yo...

The present study was performed to characterize the disposition and alpha(1)-adrenoceptor binding of JTH-601, a novel alpha(1L)-adrenoceptor antagonist, and its metabolites (beta-D-glucopyranosyl uronic acid, JTH-601-G1; hydrogen sulfate, JTH-601-S1) in the rat prostate and other tissues. JTH-601, JTH-601-G1, and JTH-601-S1 inhibited competitively specific [(3)H]tamsulosin binding in the prosta...
