Cancer tissues in histopathology images exhibit abnormal patterns; it is of great clinical importance to label a histopathology image as having cancerous regions or not and perform the corresponding image segmentation. However, the detailed annotation of cancer cells is often an ambiguous and challenging task. In this paper, we propose a new learning method, multiple clustered instance learning (MCIL),...
A water vapor containing plasma activated bonding process is developed to optimize the bonding quality of Si/Si and glass/glass bondings in air ambient. Sufficient bonding strength was achieved at room temperature with no heating process. Meanwhile, good bonding efficiency was realized owing to the appropriate water molecules adsorbed on the surfaces. The whole processes are performed in low-vacuum...
The research of knowledge granularity has been a hotspot at home and abroad. In incomplete information systems of the rough set, we give a formula, which calculates the attribute frequency directly without acquiring the discernibility matrix. Then applying it to the field of knowledge granularity, we give a quick calculation of the attribute reduction algorithm, which of the time complexity is O(|C|...
IRIG-B format time code (the B-code) is widely used in various systems of the time synchronization as an international common time coding sequence. A decoding circuit is presented for decoding IRIG-B format time code which utilizes the method that takes single chip processor as core and combines peripheral control circuit with D/A converting circuit. This circuit decodes the temporal information of...
We propose versatile sensing systems for a variety of chemical and biological targets at molecular resolution. We have designed functional nanomechanical DNA origami devices that can be used as “single-molecule beacons”, which consist of two levers approximately 170 nm long connected at a fulcrum. Various single-molecule inorganic/organic targets ranging from metal ions to proteins as well as a unique...
With smart grid integration, there is a need to characterize reliability of a power system by including reliability of power semiconductors in grid related applications. In this paper, the reliability of IGBTs in a STATCOM application is presented for two different applications, power factor correction and harmonic elimination. The STATCOM model is developed in EMTP, and analytical equations for average...
In this paper, we investigate the representation of stochastic wind power generation in the unit commitment (UC) problem, which aims to dispatch generators and determine their operating outputs at minimal cost. A computational framework, including both thermal generators and wind farms, is developed. The probability of wind power generation based on the Weibull distribution is included in the proposed...
The Grid task scheduling is the process of the tasks that one user submit to the grid environment are distributed to each node of the resources according to some rules. Reasonable task scheduling algorithm can greatly improve the effective utilization of grid system. In the grid environment, Users want their task as quickly as possible to get accomplished, but the gird environment is hoping to take...
Genetic Algorithm is one kind of probability searching algorithm of simulating nature organic evolution. As a result of the characteristics which is none of space restrictive supposition restraint and strong robustness, it has obtained the widespread application in many domains at present. However, the simple Genetic Algorithm has the problems of the precocious phenomena, the slow rate of gathering...
A novel design of an organophosphate vapor sensor based on a thin film bulk acoustic resonator (TFBAR) is presented. The TFBAR device is consisted of an AlN piezoelectric stack and a Mo/AlN Bragg reflector. Poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) is coated on the surface of the piezoelectric stack as the special sensitive layer. The concentration of the target gas can be analyzed by measuring the resonant...
The basic process of modeling of GO methodology was analyzed, the key steps and notes was pointed out. After analyzing the structure of Jiefang truck brake system, according the principle of GO methodology, the GO figure of the brake system was built; state combination and value of all parts was calculated by qualitative GO operation, and the reliability of this brake system was calculated by quantitative...
The binary tree based protocol provides an elegant and efficient method to resolve the collision occurred in multiple access broadcasted communication channel. In this paper, some statistical properties of the protocol are analyzed for the communication system with ternary feedbacks. The quantities under investigation include the mathematical expectations for the amount of total nodes, as well as...
Citizens have always played an important role in emergency management such as urban flooding response. New information and communication technologies such as smart phones and computer-based social networks have great potential to transform the roles of citizens in emergency management. However, current digital citizen science projects are usually limited in three areas: 1) limited one-way citizen...
The last few years have witnessed the emergence of RFID system in a lot of application fields. However, a key issue that affects the universal deployments of the RFID system is the the tag collisions, which are caused by that multiple tags tries to transmit their digital identifiers through the air interface simultaneously. In this paper, a biased query tree protocol to resolve the collision occurred...
Feature selection plays an important role in text categorization. Automatic feature selection methods such as document frequency thresholds (DF), information gain (IG), mutual information (MI), and so on are commonly applied in text categorization. Existing experiments show IG is one of the most effective methods. In this paper, a feature selection method is proposed based on Rough Set theory and...
One of the key questions about transmedia storytelling is how to design a participant's experience across different media so that it is connected and perceived as a whole. We extract four components for building such connections from current work in media studies and production literature and practice. These proposed design components are mythology, canon, character and genre. To test this approach...
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety in mild to moderate insomnia intervened by Chinese Medicine in the integrated program. Methods: Patients(18 to 56 years old) from the Five National Center, who were with mild to moderate insomnia, were randomly divided into two groups according to the central, experimental group: sleep hygiene instruction + balance acupuncture+ Chinese herbal drug; control...
Camera calibration is a key technology in the application of the stereo visual system. On the basis of analyzing the OpenCV camera model and the existing calibration methods of a binocular vision system, a binocular camera calibration algorithm was designed to obtain the internal and external camera parameters. Considering the importance of corner extraction in the camera calibration, a new corner...
The game industry and related research communities have shown a surge of interest in reality-based interfaces that create “embodied” game play experiences. Handheld AR (HAR) is a reality-based interface that renders digital objects onto a player's perception of the physical world. HAR creates a hybrid space in which players can leverage their existing physical and social skills to interact with the...
The posture control of micro quadrotor is the key point in flying stability, in this paper, the structure of quadrotor is analyzed, and the kinetic equation has been deduced, a new proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID) control algorithm has been set up based on the velocity matrix, the parameters are simplified and divide to eight classification due to the value of the error. The simulation...
