While algorithmic DNA self-assembly is, in theory, capable of forming complex patterns, its experimental demonstration has been limited by significant assembly errors. In this paper we describe a novel protection/deprotection strategy to strictly enforce the direction of tiling assembly growth to ensure the robustness of the assembly process. Tiles are initially inactive, meaning that each tile...

The ITER reference materials have been tested separately in tokamaks, plasma simulators, ion beams and high heat flux test beds. In order to perform a fully integrated material test JET has launched the ITER-like Wall Project with the aim of installing a full metal wall during the next major shutdown. As a result of R&D projects in 2005–2006, bulk tungsten tiles are foreseen at the outer horizo...

the art of qajar period includes many unique features and themes. one of the most exceptional features of qajar artworks (painting on tiles) is women motifs depicted at semiprivate and private spaces, at houses of nobilities, and palaces. qajar women in these paintings interact with foreign women’s identity and they have shown a new face of iranian women. the archi-myth of qajar period is inclu...

Remote sensing images with large sizes are usual. They also include several spectral channels, increasing the volume of information. To get valuable information from data automatically, computers need higher amounts of memory and efficient processing techniques. Segmentation is a key technique to deal with remote sensing. It identifies regions in images. Therefore, it deals with large amounts o...

The depth range of coral species has often been attributed to post-settlement mortality reflecting different physiological tolerances of species along physical gradients, such as light and water movement. Consequently, the potential of habitat selection by larvae to contribute to these patterns has been largely ignored. To test whether larvae prefer substratum conditioned in the parental habita...

Key frames and previews are two forms of a video abstract, widely used for various applications in video browsing and retrieval systems. We propose in this paper a novel method for generating these two abstract forms for an arbitrary video sequence. The underlying principle of the proposed method is the removal of the visual-content redundancy among video frames. This is done by first applying ...

Large tiles in a database are itemsets with the largest area which is defined as the itemset frequency in the database multiplied by its size. Mining these large tiles is an important pattern mining problem since tiles with a large area describe a large part of the database. In this paper, we introduce the problem of mining top-k largest tiles in a data stream under the sliding window model. We...

A conceptually simple first wall (FW) and blanket design for an inertial fusion system based on utilizing mobile FW tiles is presented. Using these tiles that are periodically removed, annealed, and reinstalled, tritium retention and surface erosion concerns for inertial fusion FW could be mitigated. A conceptual configuration has been developed with consideration for laser beam port accommodat...

Various artifacts, such as ghost colors, interlacing, and motion blur, hinder diagnosing colorectal cancer (CRC) from videos acquired during colonoscopy. The frames containing these artifacts are called uninformative present in large proportions colonoscopy videos. To alleviate the impact of we propose an adversarial network based framework to convert clinically relevant frames. We examine effe...
