In clinical practice at Tibetan area of China, Traditional Tibetan Medicine formula Wuwei-Ganlu-Yaoyu-Keli(WGYK) is widely added in warm water of bath therapy to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, its action mechanism is not well interpreted yet. In this study, based on gene expression data from microarray experiments, we apply approaches of network pharmacology to further reveal the action...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease that affects the joints, often those in a person's wrists, fingers, and feet. In contrast to FDA-approved anti-RA drugs, Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F (TwHF), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), featured as multi-targeting, have been acknowledged with notable anti-RA effects although the pharmacology is unclear. In this work, we investigated the therapeutic...
As a famous cultural wealth, the sketch of fresco is one of the most important art expression forms in the World Heritage. To avoid the damage of natural and human factors, painters can only use photos and videos to depict sketch in most world culture heritage sites, otherwise real frescos. Therefore, a computational method for extracting sketch is helpful and meaningful in sketch copying and researching...
Fingerprint minutiae are the most important features used by latent fingerprint examiners, as well as in automated fingerprint recognition systems. Hence, understanding the statistical distribution of minutiae is essential in many fingerprint recognition related problems, such as fingerprint individuality and fingerprint synthesis. Prior work considers the occurrence of a minutia as a random event,...
Database as a Service (DaaS) is a common service mode in Cloud Computing. Based on Feldman (t,n) VSS protocol and ElGamal homomorphism property, we proposed a privacy-preserving access control protocol for DaaS. Using Secret Sharing, we can protect the security of data owner's dataset, based on ElGamal homomorphism property, the data requester's query combining with the proxy servers' access control...
Strategic alliances among organizations are one of the central drivers of innovation and economy and have raised strong interest among policymakers, strategists and economists. However, discovery of alliances has relied on pure manual search and has limited scope. This research addresses the limitations by proposing a text mining framework that automatically extracts alliances from news articles....
For the limited monitor capacity and high cost of the "Compass" satellite navigation and positioning system, a virtual managed user computer system is proposed and designed in this thesis. The operating environment of the virtual managed user computer system - Compass monitoring and management network is introduced. Also, the differences between Compass and other systems are compared. The...
The testing of database and application system is an important issue in software testing and it is concerned by academic research recently. This paper proposed an approach that combined white-box testing with black-box testing for database stored procedures testing. This method selected a set of testing path by the technique of path coverage and generated test cases by the technique of program slices...
This paper presents the results of an investigation into spatial distribution of hyperlinks to the Beijing tourist attractions' official Websites. The purpose of this study is to assess whether the hyperlink in the Web could be used to do tourism research. Through this study, the simple inlink count to a tourist attraction's official Website was found to highly correlate with the number of the tourist...
Under the foundation of setting forth the connotation of spatial information and the characteristic of the development of spatial information technology and WebGIS, the paper studies the main domain of WebGIS applied in the resources environment management and proposes that the application of WebGIS should be strengthened in the resources environment management.
This paper presents a method based on information entropy to analyze the capacity of covert channels. Built upon noninterference, the method is firstly used to calculate the covert channel capacity, then to analyze the factors that have an impact on this quantity. Finally an example is given of the capacity calculation for covert channels in a multilevel secure database.
This paper proposes an innovative data storage mechanism for forms of web-based workflow systems in which various forms communicate with each other quite frequently to carry out workflow handling. To realise this approach, several methods mainly about string theory as well as string variable processing are provided. Moreover, it can deal with forms both in static and dynamic kinds. The key distinction...
