Growth Differentiation Factor 15 Elevation in the Central Nervous System Is Associated With Failure to Thrive in Alexander Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Alexander disease (AxD) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder caused by gain‐of‐function mutations in the gene for GFAP, which lead to protein aggregation and a primary astrocytopathy. Symptoms vary, but failure to thrive (FTT) and frequent emesis are common and cause significant morbidity. Here we investigate GDF15, a member of the

Performance Evaluation of Hexagonal Array Adaptive Beamforming Algorithm Based on Inverse QR-RLS for Active Sonar Application

Journal of Algorithms & Computational Technology, 2009
In shallow water areas, to enhance underwater targets detection performance improve computation efficiency of active sonar, a computationally efficient adaptive beamformer (spatial filter) based on inverse QR (IQR) and recursive least-squares (RLS) is ...

Interleukin‐6 as a Key Biomarker in Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy: Evidence From Longitudinal Analyses

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy type 1 (FSHD1) is a progressive neuromuscular disorder with no approved treatments. Identifying reliable biomarkers is critical to monitor disease severity, activity, and progression. Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) has been proposed as a candidate biomarker, but longitudinal validation is limited ...

An Improved Array Steering Vector Estimation Method and Its Application in Speech Enhancement

EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2005
We propose a robust microphone array for speech enhancement and noise suppression. To overcome target signal cancellation problem of conventional beamformes caused by array imperfections or reverberation effects, the proposed method adopts arbitrary ...

Block-Online Multi-Channel Speech Enhancement Using DNN-Supported Relative Transfer Function Estimates [PDF]

, 2019
This work addresses the problem of block-online processing for multi-channel speech enhancement. Such processing is vital in scenarios with moving speakers and/or when very short utterances are processed, e.g., in voice assistant scenarios.

Optical Control of the Thermal Conductivity in BaTiO3

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Light‐driven manipulation of thermal conductivity in archetypal ferroelectric, BaTiO3, offers a novel and effective approach for the dynamical control of the heat flux, with potential applications in thermal management and phonon‐based logic. Abstract Achieving dynamic control over thermal conductivity remains a formidable challenge in condensed matter

Inverse Filtering and Principal Component Analysis Techniques for Speech Dereverberation

Advances in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, 2016
In this work, we present a single channel approach for early and late reverberation suppression. This approach can be decomposed into two stages. The first stage employs the inverse filter to augment the signal-to-reverberant energy ratio.

Photoactivation of NV Centers in Diamond via Continuous Wave Laser Illumination of Shallow As‐Implanted Nitrogen

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an alternative method of creating charge‐stable negatively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV−) centers close to the diamond surface without high‐temperature annealing. By illuminating nitrogen‐implanted regions with a continuous‐wave 405 nm laser, NV− centers are induced, exhibiting electron spin coherence properties suitable for ...

Simulation Study on Detection and Localization of a Moving Target Under Reverberation in Deep Water

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Deep-water reverberation caused by multiple reflections from the seafloor and sea surface can affect the performance of active sonars. To detect a moving target under reverberation conditions, a reverberation suppression method using multipath Doppler ...
