Solution‐Processed Thin‐Film Transistors With Tunable Temporal Dynamics for Neuromorphic Computing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Solution‐processed CNT and CNT/P3HT ion‐gated transistors exhibit materials‐defined synaptic timescales: fast CNT devices for high‐frequency spiking and slow hybrid devices for temporal integration. Embedding these dynamics into coupled reservoir‐computing and spiking neural network simulations reveals that a Hybrid‐Reservoir / CNT‐SNN architecture ...

Computation-aware intra-mode decision for H.264 coding and transcoding [PDF]

, 2007
[[abstract]]been equipped with modern video codecs. Video communications, especially for encoding H.264 format bit-stream, however, are usually very power-consuming, leading to rather limited communication period for mobile devices powered by batteries ...

Functional Precision Oncology Approach Using Nanoliter Droplet Array for Drug Sensitivity Testing in Lung Cancer

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A miniaturized drug sensitivity and resistance testing (DSRT) workflow based on the Droplet Microarray (DMA) platform enables functional drug testing using minimal patient‐derived tumor material. By screening nanoliter‐scale droplets containing as few as 300 cells, this approach generates reproducible and tumor‐specific drug response profiles ...

Extracellular Vesicles Modulation by an Adiponectin Receptor Agonist Provides Cardioprotection for Myocardial Ischemic Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ALY688, a drug mimicking the heart‐protective hormone adiponectin, reduces myocardial ischemia injury. ALY688 increases the production of extracellular vesicles, which carry protective cargo including adiponectin itself.

A Study on Fast Intra-Prediction Mode Decision Method based on Block Correlation for H.264/AVC

, 2007
在論文中，針對H.264/AVC中圖框內空間性預測編碼，新提出一個快速模式決策演算法。為了加速找出給目標區塊適當的預測模式，我們利用目標區塊與其相臨的幾個區塊之相依性，來減少編碼過程中的計算複雜度；相臨的區塊包含幾個在空間上相依靠的區塊，和在時間上前一個圖框中相同位置的區塊。在演算法中，也利用了一種更新策略，在只增加一些計算的複雜度下增強視訊的品質。比較已存在JM的SATD模式決策演算法，這裡提議的演算法，在可接受的速度失真損失表現下，可以平均減少圖框內4x4編碼的運算複雜度到40%。In this ...
