Measuring MIMO-SAR is an important part of mobile handset evaluation, following the introduction of uplink MIMO transmission schemes in LTE-Advanced. However, the measurement of MIMO-SAR is complex and time-consuming. In this paper, 6 unique dual-antenna mobile handsets, including both typical and novel designs, are analyzed to determine the dependence of MIMO-SAR on antenna configuration and corr

LSTM architectures (Hochreiter and Schmidhuber, 1997) have become standard to recognize named entities (NER) in text (Lample et al., 2016; Chiu and Nichols, 2016). Nonetheless, Zhang et al. (2015) recently proposed an approach based on fixed-size ordinally forgetting encoding (FOFE) to translate variable-length contexts into fixed-length features. This encoding method can be used with feed-forward

Using the concepts of social norms and social reality, this chapter explores why legal reforms that aimed to facilitate the formalization of informal workers have largely failed to influence vulnerable groups in developing countries. It explores the use of legal reforms in order to achieve development and poverty reduction. Using empirical material from a qualitative study conducted in Colombia am

Aims: Iron deficiency (ID) is a common co-morbidity in heart failure (HF), associated with impaired functional capacity, poor quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. Treatment with intravenous (i.v.) ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) has shown improvements in functional capacity, symptoms and quality of life in stable HF patients with reduced ejection fraction. The effect of i.v. iron sup

The study describes the first glycoside hydrolase that exhibits comparable levels of activity on α- and β-linked saccharide substrates. This enzyme, assigned into GH109, is encoded by the genome of the human gut symbiont Akkermansia muciniphila that is a model primary degrader of the heavily O-glycosylated mucin glycoprotein that coats the epithelial enterocytes.The elusive catalytic acid/base cat

This paper presents a preliminary method developed for improved decision-support based on probabilistic methods for risk assessment using building performance simulations. The aim of the method is to support the decision-maker in all stages of the building process when deciding on the design of a building by including uncertainties and quantifying; the probability of fulfilling objectives; energy

Enzymes active on glycosidic bonds are defined according to the stereochemistry of both substrates and products of the reactions they catalyze. The CAZy classification further assigns these enzymes into sequence-based families sharing a common stereochemistry for substrates (either α- or β-) and products (i.e., inverting or retaining mechanism). Here we describe the N-acetylgalactosaminidases AmGH

In October 2016, the Special Interest Group on Theory of Characteristic Modes (TCM) initiated a coordinated effort to perform benchmarking work for characteristic mode (CM) analysis. The primary purpose is to help improve the reliability and capability of existing CM solvers and to provide the means for validating future tools. Significant progress has already been made in this joint activity. In

PURPOSE: To compare the two major complications, namely postoperative urethrocutaneous fistula and urethral stricture, between the Mathieu and tubularized incised plate (TIP) repair methods for distal hypospadias.METHODS: In this meta-analysis, electronic databases were searched for comparative studies on the two techniques. The Oxford Centre for Evidence-based Medicine Levels of Evidence was used

In situ hybridization was used to study expression of mRNAs for members of the nerve growth factor (NGF) family in the rat brain after 2 and 10 min of forebrain ischemia and 1 and 30 min of insulin-induced hypoglycemic coma. Two hours after the ischemic insults, the level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA was markedly increased in the granule cells of the dentate gyrus, and at 24 h

A search is conducted for the electroweak pair production of a chargino and a neutralino pp→χ1±χ20, where the chargino decays into the lightest neutralino and a W boson, χ1±→χ10W±, while the neutralino decays into the lightest neutralino and a Standard Model-like 125 GeV Higgs boson, χ20→χ10h. Fully hadronic, semileptonic, diphoton, and multilepton (electrons, muons) final states with missing tran

Defensive coping (DefS), oxidative stress, inflammation, and related amino acids (phenylalanine [Phe] and tyrosine [Tyr]) have been implicated in cardiovascular disease. This study assessed whether inflammation, oxidative stress, changes in essential amino acids, and altered coping strategies are correlated with subclinical vascular changes in African (n = 82) and Caucasian (n = 100) men from the

Coreference resolution is the identification of phrases that refer to the same entity in a text. Current techniques to solve coreferences use machine-learning algorithms, which require large annotated data sets. Such annotated Resources are no tavailable for most languages today. In this paper, we describe a method for solving coreferences for Swedish and German using distant supervision that does

A search is presented for new resonances decaying to a W or Z boson and a Higgs boson in the ℓ+ℓ−bb¯, ℓνbb¯, and νν¯bb¯ channels in pp collisions at s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider using a total integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb−1. The search is conducted by looking for a localized excess in the WH/ZH invariant or transverse mass distribution. No significant excess is o

Industrial robots typically require very structured and predictable working environments, and explicit programming, in order to perform well. Therefore, expensive and time-consuming engineering work is a major obstruction when mediating tasks to robots. This thesis presents methods that decrease the amount of engineering work required for robot programming, and increase the ability of robots to ha

Background: High-throughput sequencing enables high-resolution genotyping of extremely duplicated genes.454 amplicon sequencing (454) has become the standard technique for genotyping the major histocompatibilitycomplex (MHC) genes in non-model organisms. However, illumina MiSeq amplicon sequencing (MiSeq), which offersa much higher read depth, is now superseding 454. The aim of this study was to q
