We have obtained draft genomic sequences of PD (partial denitrificant) and CD (complete denitrificant) strains of Thermus thermophilus. Their genomes are similar in size to that of the aerobic strains sequenced to date and probably contain a similar megaplasmid. In the CD strain, the genes encoding a putative cytochrome cd1 Nir (nitrite reductase) and ancillary proteins were clustered with a cy...

At the height of the breaches induced by reciprocal influences, where does t...

This paper motivates a multi-modal approach for analysis of aesthetic elements of films through integration of visual and auditory features. Prior work in characterizing aesthetic elements of film has predominantly focused on visual features. We present comparison of analysis from multiple modalities in a rhythm extraction task. For detection of important events based on a model of rhythm/tempo...

Growing evidence suggests that the arts may be useful in health care and in the training of health care professionals. Four art genres - novels, films, paintings and music - are examined for their potential contribution to enhancing patient health and/or making better health care providers. Based on a narrative literature review, we examine the effects of passive (e.g. reading, watching, viewin...
