BACKGROUND Genome-wide association studies have not revealed any risk-conferring common genetic variants in Tourette syndrome (TS), requiring the adoption of alternative approaches to investigate the pathophysiology of this disorder. METHODS We obtained the basal ganglia transcriptome by RNA sequencing in the caudate and putamen of nine TS and nine matched normal control subjects. RESULTS W...

This paper introduces a new vision module, called PAAV, developed for the cognitive architecture ACT-R. Unlike ACT-R’s default vision module that was originally developed for top-down perception only, PAAV was designed to model a wide range of tasks, such as visual search and scene viewing, where pre-attentive bottom-up processes are essential for the validity of a model. PAAV builds on attenti...

let $r$ be a right artinian ring or a perfect commutative‎‎ring‎. ‎let $m$ be a noncosingular self-generator $sum$-lifting‎‎module‎. ‎then $m$ has a direct decomposition $m=oplus_{iin i} m_i$‎,‎where each $m_i$ is noetherian quasi-projective and each‎‎endomorphism ring $end(m_i)$ is local‎.

The switch control unit module is a critical core control module of the all-electronic computer interlocking system. Switch in the wrong place as the top event, use the Relex software for quantitative analysis of the importance of analysis method and found a key part of the module designs. The weak link in the system design through the use of the ‘2-Vote-2’ modular architecture analysis showed ...

The self-organizing desk is a system that enhances a physical desk-top with electronic information. It can remember, organize, update, and manipulate the information contained in the documents on a desk. The system consists of a simple robot eye that can survey the desk, a module for smart extraction of information from the images taken by the robot, a module for representing this information i...

A low cost, ultra small Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver module with integrated antenna is one of the key technologies for short range millimeter-wave wireless communication. This paper describes a 60 GHz-band transmitter module with integrated dipole antenna. The module consists of three pieces of low-cost organic resin substrate. These substrates are vertically stacked by employing Cu ball bo...

Advanced module systems like Standard ML's 13, 17] support structure generativity. Structure generativity denotes the mechanism that parameterized modules (functors) generate a "new" module instance (structure) for every application to a suitable argument. This operational behaviour is essentially a side eeect. Since interfaces in general depend on module instances, module instances are computa...

We describe a concept to employ Trusted Computing technology to secure Conditional Access Systems (CAS) for DVB. Central is the embedding of a trust anchor, e.g. a trusted platform module (TPM) into the set-top box or Conditional Access Module. Various deployment scenarios exhibit possibilities of charging co-operation with mobile network operators (MNO) via trusted mobile devices, or with othe...
