As a Minkowski summation of several linear segments in the real space, zonotopes have been widely used in set-membership identification (SMI) for uncertain system because of its advantages, such as higher accuracy, compactness of representation and less complexity. A new SMI approach is proposed in this paper to develop a control oriented model based on zonotope, with which complex mathematical calculation...
The interaction between proteins and DNA is a key driving force in a significant number of biological processes such as transcriptional regulation, repair, recombination, splicing, and DNA modification. The identification of DNA-binding sites and the specificity of target proteins in binding to these regions are two important steps in understanding the mechanisms of these biological activities. A...
Multiple cause-of-death data provides a valuable source of information that can be used to enhance health standards by predicting health related trajectories in societies with large populations. These data are often available in large quantities across U.S. states and require Big Data techniques to uncover complex hidden patterns. We design two different classes of models suitable for large-scale...
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is one of the leading causes of death and dementia worldwide. Early diagnosis confers many benefits, including improved care and access to effective treatment. However, it is still a medical challenge due to the lack of an efficient and inexpensive way to assess cognitive function [1]. Although research on data from Neuroimaging and Brain Initiative and the advancement in...
Asthma is a leading chronic disorder among children and adolescents. Although some children outgrow asthma while transitioning into adulthood, there are others who continue to suffer from life-threatening asthmatic exacerbations. Teenagers tend to have certain misconceptions about their asthmatic condition and treatment which are rarely recognized or addressed in regular clinical consultations. After...
There are approximately 4 million intensive care unit (ICU) admissions each year in the United States with costs accounting for 4.1% of national health expenditures. Unforeseen adverse events contribute disproportionately to these costs. Thus, there has been substantial research in developing clinical decision support systems to predict and improve ICU outcomes such as ICU mortality, prolonged length...
We experimentally investigate the excess noise induced on a CV-QKD system in a WDM environment consisting of 4×100 Gb/s PDM-QPSK and 16×10 Gb/s OOK classical telecom signals. The influence of the receiver's noise, the Raman scattering and the four-wave mixing process are evaluated.
Fast and reliable telecom components could potentially speed up quantum communication of continuous variable (CV) quantum states. These quantum states are generated by a (strong) attenuation of typical telecom signals and are therefore determined by the methods and technological limitations of generation and measurement of the latter. Simulation is an important step in identifying key parameters that...
Oil and oil-impregnated cellulose paper and pressboard are widely used as insulation materials in converter transformers. The existence of DC component in electric stress imposed on converter transformer insulation unfavorably causes space charge accumulation inside the oil impregnated paper insulation. It has been reported that the water content of oil impregnated paper has an impact on space charge...
Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) is one of the most effective methods in condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of oil immersed transformers. To facilitate the DGA data interpretation, investigation of fault gas generation under laboratory simulated faults using immersed heating method is often conducted. However, with immersed heating method, it is difficult to generate a stable thermal fault with...
We demonstrate 70.4 Tb/s transmission over 7,600 km with C+L band EDFAs using coded modulation with hybrid probabilistic and geometrical constellation shaping. We employ multi-stage nonlinearity compensation including DBP, fast LMS equalizer and generalized filter.
Ageing assessment of transformer paper insulation is commonly conducted through measurement of different chemical indicators in oil such as carbon oxide gases and furanic compounds [1]. Apart from these conventional paper ageing indicators, recent research success has shown that methanol and ethanol in transformers can also be used to indicate the degradation of transformer paper insulation [2].
Polymer film is general used for stress buffer and dielectric film for Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP). Chemical resistance and mechanical resistance of polymer films usually get worse after several processes with chemicals or heat. Weak chemical or mechanical resistance will induce polymer film cracking. Polymer cracking further induces humidity penetration into RDL (Re-distribution Layer)...
Laser grooving process is crucial to thin chip strength. Much of paper has been put on the mechanism of laser grooving, but only few investigations were taken for chip strength enhancement. In this paper, thin chip (less than 100um chip thickness) is adopted, and the experiment of laser grooving process is carried out for mechanical characteristics evaluation. Based on experiment results, the optimal...
Due to high torque density, low torque ripple, high efficiency, excellent fault-tolerance capability and convenient manufacturing, fraction-slot concentrated windings (FSCWs) are desirable to be used in high performance permanent magnet (PM) synchronous machines.
We present an electrostatic MEMS scanner for a dual-axes confocal fluorescence endomicroscope to collect fluorescent images in three orthogonal planes of tissue with large field of view (FOV) at high frame rate. The scanner employs a novel lever-based dual-gimbal structure to perform coupling-free switchable XY/XZ/YZ two-dimensional (2D) beam scanning, and uses the parametric resonance excitation...
This paper reports a novel bi-directional electrothermal MEMS mirror with its mirror plate's position insensitive to ambient temperature and stable over time. In contrast, the electrothermal MEMS mirrors demonstrated previously are unidirectional and the position of the mirror plate changes significantly with ambient temperature and drifts over time. The new MEMS mirror design has been fabricated...
One pressing need in the area of public health is timely, accurate, and complete reporting of deaths and the conditions leading up to them. Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) is a new HL7 interoperability standard for electronic health record (EHR), while Sustainable Medical Applications and Reusable Technologies (SMART)-on-FHIR enables third-party app development that can work “out...
Cardiac allograft rejection is one major limitation for long-term survival for patients with heart transplants. The endomyocardial biopsy is one gold standard to screen heart rejection for patients that have heart transplantation. However, manual identification of heart rejection is expensive and time-consuming. With the development of imaging processing techniques and machine learning tools, automatic...
The Centers for Disease Control estimate that 1.6 to 3.8 million concussions occur in sports and recreational activities annually. Studies have shown that concussions increase the risk of future injuries and mild cognitive disorders. Despite extensive research on sports related concussion risk factors, the factors which are most predictive of concussion outcome and recovery time course remain unknown...
