Gait energy image (GEI) has been proven to be an effective gait recognition feature. It has good performance on most of public databases. However, GEI ignores most of gait motion information and doesn’t contain enough human body structure information neither, which negatively affect its robustness in varying clothing and carrying conditions. We propose a new gait recognition method called struc...

Reaction of [GeCl(2)(dioxane)] with [18]aneS(6) (1,4,7,10,13,16-hexathiacyclooctadecane) gives the neutral [GeCl(2)([18]aneS(6))] which forms a supramolecular sheet network involving exocyclic coordination, with the macrocycles bridging Ge atoms which are in a pseudo-trigonal bipyramidal environment from two Cl and two S atoms (saw-horse), with one lone pair assumed to occupy the remaining equa...

The number of methods for genome-wide testing of gene-environment interactions (GEI) continues to increase with the hope of discovering new genetic risk factors and obtaining insight into the disease-gene-environment relationship. The relative performance of these methods based on family-wise type 1 error rate and power depends on underlying disease-gene-environment associations, estimates of w...

The AMMI and SREG GGE   are among the models that effectively capture the additive and multiplicative components of genotype × environment interaction (GEI) and provide meaningful interpretation of multi-environment trials’ data set in the breeding programs. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of GEI on grain yield of barely advanced lines and exploit the positive GEI effect us...

During Caenorhabditis elegans oocyte meiosis, a multi-protein ring complex (RC) localized between homologous chromosomes, promotes chromosome congression through the action of the chromokinesin KLP-19. While some RC components are known, the mechanism of RC assembly has remained obscure. We show that SUMO E3 ligase GEI-17/PIAS is required for KLP-19 recruitment to the RC, and proteomic analysis...

The magnitude of segregating variation for bristle number in Drosophila melanogaster exceeds that predicted from models of mutation-selection balance. To evaluate the hypothesis that genotype-environment interaction (GEI) maintains variation for bristle number in nature, we quantified the extent of GEI for abdominal and sternopleural bristles among 98 recombinant inbred lines, derived from two ...

Few association mapping studies have simultaneously accounted for population structure, genotype by environment interaction (GEI), and spatial variation. In this sugarcane association mapping study we tested models accounting for these factors and identified the impact that each model component had on the list of markers declared as being significantly associated with traits. About 480 genotype...

Cotton fiber quality is defined by several traits, which are affected by genotype×environment interaction (GEI). The objectives of this work were to study GEI of fiber traits, the repeatability and the effect of the size of testing environments in detecting cultivar genetic differences by High Volume Instrument (HVI), and the usefulness of two GEI derived stability indices, σ2i and GGE Instabil...

Abstract—This study presents new gait representations for improving gait recognition accuracy on cross gait appearances, such as normal walking, wearing a coat and carrying a bag. Based on the Gait Energy Image (GEI), two ideas are implemented to generate new gait representations. One is to append lower knee regions to the original GEI, and the other is to apply convolutional operations to the ...

Recombinase mediated cassette exchange (RMCE) is a powerful tool for targeted insertion of transgenes. Here we describe non-proprietary 'RMCE-in' cell lines as an alternative to the 'Flp-in' system and cell lines. RMCE-in cell lines offer a number of advantages including increased efficiency of integration of the genetic element of interest (GEI) at a single docking site, lack of bacterial back...
