Robust Polynomial Classifier Using L1-norm minimization
(Springer, 2010)
In this paper we present a robust polynomial classifier based on L1-norm minimization. We do so by reformulating the classifier training process as a linear programming problem. Due to the inherent insensitivity of the ...
Kinetics and thermodynamics of acoustic release of doxorubicin from non-stabilized polymeric micelles
(Elsevier, 2010)
This paper studies the thermodynamic characteristics of ultrasound-activated release of Doxorubicin (Dox) from micelles. The release and re-encapsulation of Dox into Pluronic® P105 micelles was measured by recording the ...
Optimum ethane recovery in conventional turboexpander process
(Elsevier, 2010)
Ethane recovery in a conventional turboexpander process is optimized considering different demethanizer pressures and different feeds: a lean gas and a rich one. The design variables are varied, while meeting process ...
Distribution of Doxorubicin in Rats Undergoing Ultrasonic Drug Delivery
(Elsevier, 2010)
Ultrasound (US) increases efficacy of drugs delivered from micelles, but the pharmacokinetics have not been studied previously. In this study, US was used to deliver doxorubicin (Dox) sequestered in micelles in an in vivo ...
Growth of 2,2-Biimidazole-Based Nanorods on Mica Substrate
(Hindawi, 2010)
The synthesis of a one-dimensional single-stranded helix using the crystallization of silver (I) nitrate and 2,2-biimidazole has promising potential for use in the area of nanotechnology mainly because of its unique ...
Feature modeling using polynomial classifiers and stepwise regression
(Elsevier, 2010)
In polynomial networks, feature vectors are mapped to a higher dimensional space through a polynomial function. The expanded vectors are then passed to a single layer network to compute the model parameters. However, as ...
Preliminary Modeling of Transfer RNA Kinetics in the Cytoplasm of Escherichia coli Bacteria
(American Scientific Publishers, 2010)
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) can recognize a specific amino acid from a possible pool of 20. Theyare able to transport these protein building-blocks to the ribosome, the site where amino acids assemble into protein chains. Accurate ...
Possible Physical Mechanisms of tRNA Pre-Selection in the Cytoplasm of Escherichia coli Bacteria
(American Scientific Publishers, 2010)
In a previous publication, we used kinetic models to simulate the physical movement ofthe transfer RNA (tRNA) in the cytoplasm of Escherichia coli and concluded that tRNA molecules are not able to approach the ribosome by ...
Continuous Arabic Sign Language Recognition in User Dependent Mode
(Scientific Research, 2010)
Arabic Sign Language recognition is an emerging field of research. Previous attempts at automatic visionbased recognition of Arabic Sign Language mainly focused on finger spelling and recognizing isolated gestures. In this ...
