Frontal Callosal Fiber Integrity Selectively Predicts Coordinated Psychomotor Performance in Chronic Alcoholism
Quantitative fiber tracking with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) provides a new approach for assessing deficits in the microstructural integrity of white matter circuits that may underlie cognitive deficits associated with…

Mosaicing of Single Plane Illumination Microscopy Images Using Groupwise Registration and Fast Content-Based Image Fusion
We propose here an image mosaicing algorithm that combines state of the art groupwise image registration for alignment with content-based image fusion to prevent degrading of the fused image due…

Roles of Insulin and Transferrin in Neural Progenitor Survival and Proliferation
In the current study, we examined the requirements for NSC proliferation and survival in vitro using the neurosphere culture system.

Complex Systems And Educational Change: Towards A New Research Agenda
In this article we begin to define possible agendas for research toward developing systematic frameworks and shared terminology for such a project.

Risking Communications Security: Potential Hazards of the Protect America Act
A new US law allows warrantless wiretapping whenever one end of the communication is believed to be outside national borders. This creates serious security risks: danger of exploitation of the…

Genes Implicated in Serotonergic and Dopaminergic Functioning Predict BMI Categories
This study addressed the hypothesis that variation in genes associated with dopamine function, serotonin function (SLC6A4, and regulation of monoamine levels (MAOA) may be predictive of BMI categories in young…

Abstractions for Hybrid Systems
We present a procedure for constructing sound finite-state discrete abstractions of hybrid systems. This procedure uses ideas from predicate abstraction to abstract the discrete dynamics and qualitative reasoning to abstract…

Evaluation of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Atherosclerosis Using a Novel Noninvasive Imaging Approach
This study evaluated the ability of the novel gadolinium-based MRI contrast agent P947 to target MMPs in atherosclerotic plaques.

Hydrogen and magnesium incorporation on c-plane and m-plane GaN surfaces
We present first-principles calculations for m-plane and c-plane In0.25Ga0.75N surfaces, focusing on how the growth conditions affect indium incorporation.

An intelligent fitting room using multi-camera perception
In this paper, we describe the architecture of the vision system for the Responsive Mirror, a novel system for retail fitting rooms that enables online social fashion comparisons in physical…
