Tissue-specific circadian transcriptional regulation

Circadian rhythms in physiology and behavior evolved to resonate with daily cycles in the external environment. In mammals, organs orchestrate temporal physiology over the 24-hour day, which requires extensive gene expression rhythms targeted to the right ...

MonoLoco: Monocular 3D Pedestrian Localization and Uncertainty Estimation

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Sven Kreiss, Lorenzo Bertoni

We tackle the fundamentally ill-posed problem of 3D human localization from monocular RGB images. Driven by the limitation of neural networks outputting point estimates, we address the ambiguity in the task by predicting confidence intervals through a loss ...

Molecular codes and in vitro generation of hypocretin and melanin concentrating hormone neurons

Cyril Mikhail, Hasan Pezeshgi Modarres, Sha Li

Hypocretin/orexin (HCRT) and melanin concentrating hormone (MCH) neuropeptides are exclusively produced by the lateral hypothalamus and play important roles in sleep, metabolism, reward, and motivation. Loss of HCRT (ligands or receptors) causes the sleep ...

First measurement of the CKM angle phi(3) with B-+/--> D(K-S(0)pi(+)pi(-)pi(0)) K-+/- decays

Olivier Schneider, Sun Hee Kim, Mingkui Wang, Chao Wang, Donghyun Kim, Lei Li, Yiming Li, Xiao Wang

We present the first model-independent measurement of the CKM unitarity triangle angle phi(3) using B-+/--> D(K-S(0)pi(+)pi(-)pi(0)) K-+/- decays, where D indicates either a D-0 or (D) over bar (0) meson. Measurements of the strong-phase difference of the ...

MRI T2 Mapping of the Knee Providing Synthetic Morphologic Images: Comparison to Conventional Turbo Spin-Echo MRI

Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert

Background: Use of a T2 mapping sequence in addition to the conventional knee MRI protocol increases sensitivity to early cartilage lesions but is time consuming. ...

Lancet: A self-correcting Latency Measuring Tool

Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias, Stephen Xin Mallon

We present LANCET, a self-correcting tool designed to measure the open-loop tail latency of µs-scale datacenter applications with high fan-in connection patterns. LANCET is self-correcting as it relies on online statistical tests to determine situations in ...

Analysis of U-Shape Patterns in RR-Interval Time Series During Sleep

Jean-Marc Vesin, Grégoire Millet, Sasan Yazdani, Alexandre Thierry Robert Cherqui

The proposed study investigates a phenomenon, defined as "U-patterns", that takes place in the RR-interval time series during sleep. These patterns are defined as a U-shaped decrease-increase in the RR-intervals, with a duration of 20 to 40 seconds with a ...

Can Daytime Napping Assist the Process of Skills Acquisition After Stroke?

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Winifried Backhaus

Acquisition and reacquisition of skills is a main pillar of functional recovery after stroke. Nighttime sleep has a positive influence on motor learning in healthy individuals, whereas the effect of daytime sleep on neuro-rehabilitative training and relear ...

Maximum likelihood bolometric tomography for the determination of the uncertainties in the radiation emission on JET TOKAMAK

Patrick Blanchard, Basil Duval, Ambrogio Fasoli, Yves Martin, Richard Pitts, Olivier Sauter, Henri Weisen, Robin Humphry-Baker, Stefano Coda, Martinus Gijs, Partha Dutta, Marco Wischmeier, Jan Horacek, Vlad Trifa, Yann Camenen, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Sun Hee Kim, Mikhail Maslov, Javier García Hernández, David Pfefferlé, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Julio Rodriguez, Pedro Camilo de Oliveira e Silva, Rebecca Hill, Daniel Scott Alessi, Jonnathan Cesar Hidalgo Acosta, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Pierre-Thomas Paul Brun, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, Federico Nespoli, Alberto Hernando de Castro, Hamish William Patten, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Li Shuai, Nicola Vianello, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Samuel Lanthaler, Liang Yao, Arnout Lodewijk M Beckers, Cristian Sommariva, Davide Galassi, Alessandro Pau, Yao Zhou, Otto Asunta, Bernhard Sieglin

The total emission of radiation is a crucial quantity to calculate the power balances and to understand the physics of any Tokamak. Bolometric systems are the main tool to measure this important physical quantity through quite sophisticated tomographic inv ...
