Current air traffic management systems suffer from poor radar coverage and a highly centralized architecture which can under heavy traffic loads overwhelm Air Traffic Control (ATC) centers. Such limitations can lead to inefficient use of the available airspace capacity and insecure scenarios such as low-visibility landings. Future air transportation systems with e-enabled aircraft and networked...

A signal processing scheme based on phase interferometry is developed here that provides anti-spoof capabilities for ADS-B or AIS using a compact, dual-antenna softwaredenied radio. The expected performance using existing radio technologies and two short baselines is demonstrated for ADS-B. The abilities of the proposed method include spoof detection (ADS-B, AIS and GNSS), collision avoidance i...

Eukaryotic cell cycle transitions are driven by E3 ubiquitin ligases that catalyze the ubiquitylation and destruction of specific protein targets. For example, the anaphasepromoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) promotes the exit from mitosis via destruction of securin and mitotic cyclins, whereas CRL1 allows entry into S phase by targeting the destruction of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhib...

Image-based rendering o ers the advantage of being able to provide realistic output and at the same time to avoid the di cult problem of a complete geometric and photometric modeling of the real world. The method described here is able to deal with non rigid scenes and large camera motions. We present in this report a three step algorithm for the interpolation of two views of a scene, from whic...

The effect of rebamipide, a novel antiulcer compound, on Helicobacter pyloni activated neutrophil dependent in vitro gastric epithelial cell injury was investigated. Luminol dependent chemiluminescence (ChL), which detects toxic oxidants from neutrophils exhibited a 12-fold increase when the bacterial suspension ofH pylon was added to the isolated human neutrophils. This change was significantl...

Current bias estimation algorithms for air traffic control (ATC) surveillance are focused on radar sensors, but the integration of new sensors (especially automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast and wide area multilateration) demands the extension of traditional procedures. This study describes a generic architecture for bias estimation applicable to multisensor multitarget surveillance syst...

The University of North Dakota is developing airspace within the state where Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UASs) can be flown without an onboard sense and avoid system or Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs). With funding from the U.S. Air Force, a mobile ground-based system capable of detecting cooperative aircraft flying in the surrounding airspace, and the software to display information about ...

Over the last few decades, a number of reinforcement learning techniques have emerged, and different reinforcement learning-based applications have proliferated. However, such techniques tend to specialize in a particular field. This is an obstacle to their generalization and extrapolation to other areas. Besides, neither the reward-punishment (r-p) learning process nor the convergence of resul...

The master regulators, cyclin dependant kinases (CDKs), are the actual driving forces behind the progression of cell cycle in eukaryotic cells. The activity level of these kinases is maintained and controlled by the periodic synthesis and degradation of positive regulators, cyclins, negative regulators, cyclin kinase inhibitors (CKIs) and other reversible phosphorylation events. CDK/cyclin comp...

Upcoming disruptive technologies around autonomous driving of connected cars have not yet been matched with appropriate security by design principles and lack approaches to incorporate proactive preventative measures in the wake of increased cyber-threats against such systems. In this paper, we introduce proactive anomaly detection to a use-case of hijacked connected cars to improve cyber-resil...
