Further performance improvement is necessary for resistive random access memory (RRAM) to realize its commercialization. In this work, a novel pulse operation method is proposed to improve the performance of RRAM based on Ti/HfO2/Pt structure. In the DC voltage sweep of the RRAM device, the SET transition is abrupt under positive bias. If current sweep with positive bias is utilized in SET proc...

Efficient and effective processing of the distance-based join query (DJQ) is of great importance in spatial databases due to the wide area of applications that may address such queries (mapping, urban planning, transportation planning, resource management, etc.). The most representative and studied DJQs are the K Closest Pairs Query (KCPQ) and εDistance Join Query (εDJQ). These spatial queries ...

As an in nite union operation sweep of a moving object through space is a powerful and natural addition to the Boolean set operations that incorporates motion related information for the purposes of shaping collision detection and simulation of moving objects Use of sweep has been hindered by limited computational support and by the fact that it is a material growing operation whereas many appl...

There is a growing interest in investigating the relationship between genes with signatures of natural selection and genes identified in QTL mapping studies using combined population and quantitative genetics approaches. We dissected an X-linked interval of 6.2 Mb, which contains two QTL underlying variation in chill coma recovery time (CCRT) in Drosophila melanogaster from temperate (European)...

This paper describes a novel experiment on nitroxide radical spin labels using a multiarm EPR W-band bridge with a loop-gap resonator (LGR). We demonstrate EPR spectroscopy of spin labels by linear sweep of the microwave frequency across the spectrum. The high bandwidth of the LGR, about 1 GHz between 3 dB points of the microwave resonance, makes this new experiment possible. A frequency-tunabl...

Canopy Gaps in an Upper Mississippi River floodplain plot were measured as part of a songbird nest-site selectivity study. Two methods of measuring floodplain forest canopy gaps were compared. One method used a ground crew to sweep the plot and record spatial and botanical information of canopy gaps > 10 meters in diameter. The second method used 1:15,000 scale color infrared stereoscopic aeria...

We propose a fully-automatic 3D model generating method of individual people from multi-view images. An automatically constructed 3D model can be deformed and animated by controlling the joint. An animatable 3D personalized model of individual people is generated by transferring the joint-skeleton structure and appearance of a generic 3D human model to an individual 3D volumetric model reconstr...

A rigid interval graph is an interval graph which has only one clique tree. In 2009, Panda and Das show that all connected unit interval graphs are rigid interval graphs. Generalizing the two classic graph search algorithms, Lexicographic Breadth-First Search (LBFS) and Maximum Cardinality Search (MCS), Corneil and Krueger propose in 2008 the so-called Maximal Neighborhood Search (MNS) and show...
