This study investigated anticipatory cortisol and pre-competitive anxiety of swimmers before competition. Fifteen university volunteered to participate in the study. Salivary Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2R) were collected six days (6d) two hours (2h) Results revealed higher somatic 2h compared 6d prior No differences observed cortisol, cognitive anxiety, self-confidence. Thus, i...

Zur Automatisierung komplexer Manipulationsaufgaben in dynamischen oder unbekannten Umgebungen benötigt die Steuerungssoftware eines autonomen Roboters eine Repräsentation des Arbeitsbereiches, mit der die Kollisionsfreiheit bei der Durchführung der Aufgabe gewährleistet werden kann. Dieser Beitrag beschreibt ein neues System zur Erstellung von 3D-Umgebungsrepräsentationen aus den RGB-D-Daten n...

The preparation of 1,2-anhydro-2',6'-di-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-1-deaminofortimicin B-4,5-carbamate (4) and its conversion to the two diastereomeric 2',6'-di-N-benzyloxycarbonyl-1-deamino-2-deoxy-1,2-epoxyfortimicin B-4,5-carbamates 7 and 13 are described. The olefin 4 was used for preparation of 1-deamino-2-deoxyfortimicin A (6d) while the beta-epoxide 13 was used for the preparation of 1,2-di-epi...

We present a 3D object detection method that uses regressed descriptors of locally-sampled RGB-D patches for 6D vote casting. For regression, we employ a convolutional auto-encoder that has been trained on a large collection of random local patches. During testing, scene patch descriptors are matched against a database of synthetic model view patches and cast 6D object votes which are subsequen...

The unoccupied electronic structure characterization of hydrothermally grown ThO 2 single crystals" (2014). Peter Dowben Publications. Paper 265. 1 Introduction It is often stated that Th has no 5f electrons and instead adopts the electronic configuration [Rn]6d 2 7s 2. This is an extension of the idea that there are no occupied Th valence states when Th is a cation Th 4+ in a compound such as ...

Four 5-carbon-linked trioxane dimer orthoesters (6a-6d) have been prepared in 4 or 5 chemical steps from the natural trioxane artemisinin (1). When administered orally to malaria-infected mice using a single dose of only 6 mg/kg body weight along with 18 mg/kg of mefloquine hydrochloride, trioxane dimer orthoester sulfone 6d completely and safely cured the mice; after 30 days, the cured mice sh...

A Z2 orbifold compactification of the heterotic string is considered. The resulting 6D GUT groups can be SO(16) or E7 × SU(2) plus some hidden sector groups. The N = 4 supersymmetry is reduced to N = 2. In particular, the SO(16) 6D model with one spinor representation 128 can reduce to the previous 5D SO(16) or SO(14) family unification models after compactifying the sixth dimension. To obtain ...

Functional connectivity between two voxels or regions of voxels can be measured by the correlation between voxel measurements from either PET CBF or BOLD fMRI images in 3D. We propose to look at the entire 6D matrix of correlations between all voxels and search for 6D local maxima. The main result is a new theoretical formula, based on random eld theory, for the p-value of these local maxima, t...

Synthesis of 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives of diclofenac and mefenamic acid are described. The target compounds 5-[2-(2,6-dichloroanilino)benzyl]-2-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (3a-3e) and 5-[2-(2,3-dimethylanilino)phenyl]-2-(aryl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (6a-6e) were obtained by treating 2 and 5 with various aromatic acids using POCl(3) as dehydrating agent. They were purified and characterized by IR, (1)H-N...
