We present a method to discriminate between analytes based on their size using multiple wavelengths in a Young interferometer. We measured the response of two wavelengths when adding 85 nm beads (representing specific binding), protein A (representing non-specific binding) and D-glucose (inducing a bulk change) to our sensor. Next, the measurements are analysed using a approach based on theoret...

in models of data envelopment analysis (dea), an optimal set of input and output weights is generally as-sumed to represent the assessed decision making unit (dmu) in the best light in comparison to all the other dmus. these sets of weights are, typically, different for each of the participating dmus. thus, it is important to find a common set of weights (csw) across the set of dmus. in this pa...

A micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) method was applied for the identification of geographical origins of Chinese green teas. Under the optimized conditions, chromatographic profiling of collected Maojian tea samples was obtained. Based on MEKC-UV profiling, twenty-four tea samples were successfully differentiated according to the relative peak areas of selected peaks in the chromato...

UNLABELLED Clot waveform analysis extends the interpretation of aPTT measurement curves. The curve is mathematically processed to obtain information about fibrin formation kinetics including semiquantitative determination of thrombin, prothrombinase and tenase activity. PATIENTS, METHOD In this study the feasibility of clot waveform analysis for monitoring of haemophilia A was investigated us...

This paper reports on the unsupervised analysis of seismic signals recorded by four stations situated on the Vesuvius area in Naples, Italy. The dataset under examination is composed of earthquakes and false events like thunders, quarry blasts and man-made undersea explosions. The goal is to use these specific data for comparing the performance of three projection methods that are well known to...

In this paper we present a new scheme for Palmprint verification. The proposed method can be viewed as a combination of Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) followed by Independent Component Analysis (ICA I and ICA II) applied directly on the pixels. This approach follows the path opened by previous works making use of GMM followed by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminate Analysis ...
