Activation of the pro-oxidant PKC?IIp66Shc Signaling pathway contributes to pericyte dysfunction in skeletal muscles of patients with diabetes with critical limb Ischemia
(
American Diabetes Association Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Critical limb ischemia (CLI), foot ulcers, former amputation, and impaired regeneration are independent risk factors for limb amputation in subjects with diabetes. The present work investigates whether and by which mechanism ...
Quantification of carcinogenic odor of formaldehyde with electronic nose technologyd
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Based on recent experimental discoveries about a link between the length of exposure to formaldehyde and cancers of the lymphatic and hematopoietic systems, we present a low-cost and compact solution for monitoring ...
Quasi-sparsest solutions for quantized compressed sensing by graduated-non-convexity based reweighted ?1minimization
(
European Signal Processing Conference, EUSIPCO
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we address the problem of sparse signal recovery from scalar quantized compressed sensing measurements, via optimization. To compensate for compression losses due to dimensionality reduction and quantization, ...
On quantized compressed sensing with saturated measurements via convex optimization
(
European Signal Processing Conference, EUSIPCO
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we address the problem of sparse signal recovery, from multi-bit scalar quantized compressed sensing measurements, where the saturation issue is taken into account. We propose a convex optimization approach, ...
PLATE-PBL: Development and implementation of a script-based PBL environment in moodle
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper describes the work involved in developing a script-based PBL environment in Moodle. PLATE-PBL is a Moodle plug-in based entirely on the meta-model of the PBL scripting language. The plug-in dynamically transforms ...
An Adaptive Transmission Scheme for Two-Way Relaying with Asymmetric Data Rates
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, we address the problem of asymmetric data rates in two-way communication systems. In particular, we propose an adaptive transmission scheme that combines network coding (NC) and opportunistic user selection ...
Real-Time Patient-Specific ECG Classification by 1-D Convolutional Neural Networks
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Article)
Goal: This paper presents a fast and accurate patient-specific electrocardiogram (ECG) classification and monitoring system. Methods: An adaptive implementation of 1-D convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is inherently ...
Gravity investigations of recent sinkholes and karst pits of Dahal Al-Hamam, State of Qatar
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Gravity prospecting is a very useful geophysical technique for the investigation of karst subsurface features, in urban areas, which are a common natural hazard in several parts of the world. Gravity data were used to ...
Steady-State Mathematical Modeling of a Five-Phase Induction Machine with a Combined Star/Pentagon Stator Winding Connection
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
This paper presents the steady-state mathematical model of a five-phase induction machine with a combined star/pentagon connection. The connection splits the stator winding into two five-phase windings displaced in space ...
Ratings of perceived exertion misclassify intensities for sedentary older adults during graded cycling test: Effect of supramaximal high-intensity interval training
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2018 , Article)
The present study aims (1) to evaluate ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and corresponding intensities during a maximal graded cycling test and (2) to determine the effects of 6 weeks of supramaximal cycling exercise ...
