We analyze how to realize Rec. 2020 wide color gamut with quantum dots. For photoluminescence, our simulation indicates that we are able to achieve over 97% of the Rec. 2020 standard with quantum dots by optimizing the emission spectra and redesigning the color filters. For electroluminescence, by optimizing the emission spectra of quantum dots is adequate to render over 97% of the Rec. 2020 st...

Reachability analysis is the most general approach to the analysis of Petri nets. Due to the wellknown problem of state-space explosion, generation of the reachability set and reachability graph with the known approaches often becomes intractable even for moderately sized nets. This paper presents a new method to generate and represent the reachability set and reachability graph of large Petri ...

NIOSH/NCI (National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health and National Cancer Institute) developed exposure estimates for respirable elemental carbon (REC) as a surrogate for exposure to diesel exhaust (DE) for different jobs in eight underground mines by year beginning in the 1940s-1960s when diesel equipment was first introduced into these mines. These estimates played a key role in sub...

Although tally sets are generally considered to be weak when used as oracles, it is shown here that in relativizing certain complexity classes, they are in fact no less powerful than any other class of sets and are more powerful than the class of recursive sets. More speciically, relativizations of the classes of P-printable sets and sets with small Generalized Kolmogorov complexity (SGK) are s...

The success of active cancer immunotherapy entails a robust induction of tumor-reactive effector and memory CD8+ T cells. We compared the in vivo immunogenicity of the melanoma-associated antigen Melan-A(26-35) encoded by third-generation recombinant lentivector (rec. lv) or as peptide admixed with a strong adjuvant. Ex vivo analyses of immunized HLA-A2/H-2K(b) mice showed that rec. lv triggere...

This study identifies the effects of sleep restriction and subsequent recovery sleep on glucose homeostasis, serum leptin levels, and feelings of subjective satiety. Twenty-three healthy young men were allocated to a control group (CON) or an experimental (EXP) group. After two nights of 8 h in bed (baseline, BL), EXP spent 4 h in bed for five days (sleep restriction, SR), followed by two night...

In this study, the effect of metabolic inhibition (MI) by glucose substitution with 2-deoxyglucose (2-DOG) and/or application of antimycin A on ovine rumen epithelial cells (REC) vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase (vH(+)-ATPase) activity was investigated. Using fluorescent spectroscopy, basal pH(i) of REC was measured to be 7.3 +/- 0.1 in HCO(3) (-)-free, glucose-containing NaCl medium. MI induced a str...

A mutant screen employing the ade6-M26 recombination hotspot was developed and used to isolate Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants deficient in meiotic recombination. Nine rec mutations were recessive, defining six complementation groups, and reduced ade6 meiotic recombination 3-fold to greater than or equal to 300-fold when homozygous. Three recessive rec mutations analyzed further also reduced ...

Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves provide a powerful tool for visualizing and comparing classification results. Regression Error Characteristic (REC) curves generalize ROC curves to regression. REC curves plot the error tolerance on the xaxis versus the percentage of points predicted within the tolerance on the y-axis. The resulting curve estimates the cumulative distribution funct...

Regression Error Characteristic (REC) analysis is a technique for evaluation and comparison of regression models that facilitates the visualization of the performance of many regression functions simultaneously in a single graph. The objective of this work is to present a new approach for model selection in ensembles of Neural Networks, in which we propose the use of REC curves in order to sele...
