Two closely related lectins from bulbs of the Dutch iris (Iris hollandica var. Professor Blaauw) have been isolated and cloned. Both lectins, called Iris agglutinin b and Iris agglutinin r, possess N-glycosidase activity and share a high sequence similarity with previously described type 2 ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIP). However, these lectins show only 57% to 59% sequence identity to a p...

Abstract: Problem statement:This paper presents an overview of a controller for a Rotational Inverted Pendulum (RIP) based on a New Recurrent Neural Network (NRNN) using Internal Model control (IMC). The RIP consists of a DC servo motor, arm and pendulum. The RIP is modelled in MATLAB/Simulink and the simulation results are shown besides the experimental results. The proposed experiment shows i...

This paper introduces a new general theory of compressed sensing. We give a natural generalization of the restricted isometry property (RIP) called weak RIP. We consider the proposed theory to be more useful for real data analysis than the RIP. In this note, we verify the accuracy of the weak RIP by showing in reconstruction from undersampling measurements where it is possible to improve estima...

BACKGROUND Portable respiratory inductive plethysmography (RIP) is promising for noninvasive monitoring of breathing patterns in unrestrained subjects. However, its use has been hampered by requiring recalibration after changes in body position. OBJECTIVES To facilitate RIP application in unrestrained subjects, we developed a technique for adjustment of RIP calibration using position sensor f...

This document specifies an extension of the Routing Information Protocol (RIP), as defined in [1,2], to expand the amount of useful information carried in RIP messages and to add a measure of security. This memo obsoletes RFC 1388, which specifies an update to the "Routing Information Protocol" STD 34, RFC 1058. The RIP-2 protocol analysis is documented in RFC 1721 [4]. The RIP-2 applicability ...

Rip currents are shore-normal, narrow, seaward-flowing currents that originate within surf zone, extend seaward of the breaking region (rip head), and can obtain relatively high velocities. Within the last decade, there have been a significant number of laboratory and field observations within rip current systems. An overview of rip current kinematics based on these observations and the scienti...

Seventy-one wild-isolated strains of Neurospora crassa were examined for their ability to support repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) in the erg-3 locus. RIP was exceptionally inefficient but detectable in crosses with the strain FGSC 430 from Adiopodoume, Ivory Coast. We could find no consistent differences in ascospore yields when wild isolates identified as "low-RIP" or "high-RIP" strains we...

The restricted isometry property (RIP) is a well-known matrix condition that provides state-of-the-art reconstruction guarantees for compressed sensing. While random matrices are known to satisfy this property with high probability, deterministic constructions have found less success. In this paper, we consider various techniques for demonstrating RIP deterministically, some popular and some no...
