Povzetek. Predstavljamo model vizualne prepoznave in kategorizacije objektov na podlagi odkrivanja intenzitetnih in strukturnih ujemanj med interpretirano sliko in prototipno sliko objekta. Glavni prispevek te raziskave je uporaba sinhronega hierarhičnega iskanja ujemanj, pri čemer se visokonivojska ujemanja konstruirajo pragmatično, v več ravneh združevanja, izbire in inhibicije. Z iskanjem uj...

E-journal preservation systems have to ingest millions of articles each year. Ingest, especially of the “long tail” of journals from small publishers, is the largest element of their cost. Cost is the major reason that archives contain less than half the content they should. Automation is essential to minimize these costs. This paper examines the potential for automation beyond the status quo b...

Z39.50 is a US national standard defining a protocol for computerto-computer information retrieval that was first adopted in 1988 [1] and extensively revised in 1992 [2]. It was developed by the National Information Standards Organization (NISO), an ANSI-accredited standards development body that serves the publishing, library, and information services communities. The closely related internati...

Contributor Role Ontologies and Taxonomies (CROTs) are standard vocabularies to describe individual contributions a scholarly project or research output. Roles Taxonomy (CRediT) is one of the most widely used CROTs, has been adopted by numerous journals author's contributions, recently formalized as ANSI/NISO standard. Despite these developments, there still much work left be done improve how C...

Dendritic cell (DC) activation is a critical event for the induction of an immune response to haptens. Although signaling pathways such as mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family members have been reported to play a role in DC activation by haptens, little is known about the implication of the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) pathway. In this work, we showed that NiSO(4) induced the ex...

This memo defines additional (to those in RFC 2896) protocol identifier examples for IP version 6 and MPLS protocols. These can be used to produce valid protocolDirTable INDEX encodings, as defined by the Remote Network Monitoring MIB (Management Information Base) Version 2 [RFC2021] and the RMON Protocol Identifier Reference [RFC2895]. This document contains additional (to those in RFC 2896) p...

Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) and activating protein-1 (AP-1) transcription factors are ubiquitously expressed signaling molecules known to regulate the transcription of a large number of genes involved in immune responses, namely the inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). In this study, we demonstrate that a fetal skin-derived dendritic cell line (FSDC) produces nitric oxide (NO) ...

As a consequence of an AM protocol for NISO, we get the following: Theorem 1. If Graph Isomorphism is NP-complete, then PH = Σp2. Proof. Suppose that Graph Isomorphism is NP-complete. Then the problem NISO is coNPcomplete. Hence, every coNP problem is polytime reducible to NISO, which, as we know, is in AM. We use this to get the following inclusions: Σp2 = ∃ ◦ ∀ ◦ P (definition of Σ p 2) ⊆ ∃ ◦...

Nickel (Ni) is one of the most common contact sensitizers in man, and Ni-induced contact dermatitis is considered as a model of hapten-induced delayed type hypersensitivity. Previous studies indicated that Ni-reactive T cells derived from Ni-allergic individuals preferentially express distinct TCR-Vbeta chains. However, data on the TCR-Vbeta repertoire of Ni-responsive T cells are not consisten...
