To most of us, conduct wayfinding behavior within a virtual environment using a smart mobile device has become a common task in our daily life. Various visual designs together with different interaction modes are available in these smart devices. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of wedge visual design on user interaction mode within a 3D virtual environment. This study ad...

We present a novel human action recognition method based on space-time locally adaptive regression kernels and the matrix cosine similarity measure. The proposed method operates using a single example (e.g., short video clip) of an action of interest to find similar matches. It does not require prior knowledge (learning) about actions being sought; and does not require foreground/background seg...

Tryptase, a protease produced by all mast cells, was evaluated as a clinical marker of systemic mastocytosis. Two sandwich immunoassays were evaluated, one which used the mAb G5 for capture, the other which used B12 for capture. The B12 capture assay measured both recombinant alpha- and beta-tryptase, whereas the G5 capture assay measured primarily recombinant beta-tryptase. G5 binds with low a...
