Branched-chain amino acids and muscle protein synthesis in humans: myth or reality?

open access: yesJournal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2017
The branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are leucine, valine and isoleucine. A multi-million dollar industry of nutritional supplements has grown around the concept that dietary supplements of BCAAs alone produce an anabolic response in humans driven by a ...

Localization of Simultaneous Moving Sound Sources for Mobile Robot Using a Frequency-Domain Steered Beamformer Approach [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), pp. 1033-1038, 2004, 2016
Mobile robots in real-life settings would benefit from being able to localize sound sources. Such a capability can nicely complement vision to help localize a person or an interesting event in the environment, and also to provide enhanced processing for other capabilities such as speech recognition.

Daala: A Perceptually-Driven Still Picture Codec [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Daala is a new royalty-free video codec based on perceptually-driven coding techniques. We explore using its keyframe format for still picture coding and show how it has improved over the past year. We believe the technology used in Daala could be the basis of an excellent, royalty-free image format.

Incidental Polymorphism, Non-Isomorphic and Isomorphic Substitution in Calcium-Valine Coordination Polymers

open access: yesCrystals, 2015
Five coordination polymers with the stoichiometry CaX2(valine)2(H2O)2 (X = Cl, Br) were obtained from the corresponding calcium halides and either racemic and enantiopure valine.

High-Quality, Low-Delay Music Coding in the Opus Codec [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
The IETF recently standardized the Opus codec as RFC6716. Opus targets a wide range of real-time Internet applications by combining a linear prediction coder with a transform coder. We describe the transform coder, with particular attention to the psychoacoustic knowledge built into the format.

Improving the use of the nursing process: the impact of charting methodology developed from King's conceptual framework on the use of the nursing process [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of changing a nursing documentation system, developed from King's Conceptual Framework, on the use of the nursing process.

A Full-Bandwidth Audio Codec With Low Complexity And Very Low Delay [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
We propose an audio codec that addresses the low-delay requirements of some applications such as network music performance. The codec is based on the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) with very short frames and uses gain-shape quantization to preserve the spectral envelope.

Biosynthesis of food constituents: Amino acids: 2. The alanine-valine-leucine, serine-cysteine-glycine, and aromatic and heterocyclic amino acids groups - a review

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2006
This review article gives a survey of principal pathways that lead to the biosynthesis of the proteinogenic amino acids of the alanine-valine-leucine group starting with pyruvic acid from the glycolytic pathway and serine-cysteine-glycine group starting ...

The AV1 Constrained Directional Enhancement Filter (CDEF) [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
This paper presents the constrained directional enhancement filter designed for the AV1 royalty-free video codec. The in-loop filter is based on a non-linear low-pass filter and is designed for vectorization efficiency. It takes into account the direction of edges and patterns being filtered.

Does canine inflammatory bowel disease influence gut microbial profile and host metabolism? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a diverse group of chronic gastrointestinal diseases, and gut microbial dysbiosis has been proposed as a modulating factor in its pathogenesis.
