Visual attention is an indispensable component of complex vision tasks. When looking at a complex scene, our ocular perception is confronted with a large amount of data that needs to be broken down for processing by our psychovisual system. Selective visual attention provides a mechanism for serializing the visual data, allowing for sequential processing of the content of the scene. A Bottom-Up computational...
This paper presents a possible new direction for the design of adaptive controllers. It begins by outlining a measurement‐based approach to the analysis, synthesis, and design of unknown systems. The systems under consideration can typically be electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, continuous, discrete, real, artificial, or biological, or of societal origin. Our approach is novel in the sense that we...
This paper reports a new measurement based approach that can be used to determine the functional dependence of a circuit variable of interest on a few design variables. The approach makes use of a small number of measurements and generalizes the well known Thévenin's Theorem of circuit theory. Results for both D.C. and A.C. circuits are presented.
Oxidative stress is a consequence of normal cellular metabolism. The effective functioning of the pathway responding to oxidative stress protects the cellular DNA against oxidative damage and its failure can induce aberrant cellular behaviour leading to diseases such as neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. Thus, understanding the normal signalling present in oxidative stress response pathways and...

Cancer encompasses various diseases associated with loss of cell-cycle control, leading to uncontrolled cell proliferation and/or reduced apoptosis. Cancer is usually caused by malfunction(s) in the cellular signaling pathways. Malfunctions occur in different ways and at different locations in a pathway. Consequently, therapy design should first identify the location and type of malfunction and then...
This paper reports a new measurement based approach that can be used to determine the functional dependence of a D.C. circuit variable of interest on a small set of design variables. The approach makes use of a small number of measurements and generalizes the well known Thévenin's Theorem of circuit theory.
