This article sketches the Parallel Architecture, an approach to the structure of grammar that contrasts with mainstream generative grammar (MGG) in that (a) it treats phonology, syntax, and semantics as independent generative components whose structures are linked by interface rules; (b) it uses a parallel constraint-based formalism that is nondirectional; (c) it treats words and rules alike as...

The aim of this study was to investigate diagnostic methods for cryptococcal meningitis (CM). A retrospective analysis was conducted for 31 patients with CM confirmed by etiologic detection of cerebrospinal fluid in our hospital in the past 5 years. Nineteen cases in 31 patients were confirmed with CM in the first diagnosis, with a misdiagnosis rate of 38.7%. The positive rates of cryptococcus ...

Adhesion of macrophages to material substrates plays an essential role in many biological behaviors and biomedical procedures, including wound healing, cancer treatment biomaterial implantation. Therefore, altering the adhesion using design may help control their function. In this work, we developed a straightforward method render hydrogel surface more hydrophobic demonstrated that on hydrogels...

Unlike cervical cytology, morphological cytology criteria in the differential diagnosis of endometrium have not yet been clearly defined, and methods to allow for more precise evaluation of endometrium status have been searched for. The aim of the present study was to assess the value of morphometric nucleus analysis of cytologic aspirate endometrial samples in proliferative, hyperplastic and m...

Abstract Vertically stacked horizontal nanosheet gate-all-around transistors seem to be one of the viable solutions toward scaling down below sub-7nm technology nodes. In this work, we compare electrical performance, including variability studies several transistor structure optimization. We explore impacts width and thickness on performance outline important design guidelines necessary for ver...

Giant Magnetoimpedance (GMI) sensor is the hot research topics in sensor engineering. In this paper we setup a double channel acquisition system for MGG signal. Then FastICA algorithm is applied in the raw data and We get the spectrum after ICA processing. The results show that ICA is powerful tool for MGG signal processing to separate the noise signal. Introduction Recently giant Magnetoimpeda...

Xylitol production was compared in fed batch fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains overexpressing xylose reductase (XR) genes from Candida tropicalis, Pichia stipitis, Neurospora crassa, and an endogenous gene GRE3. The gene encoding a xylose specific transporter (SUT1) from P. stipitis was cloned to improve xylose transport and fed batch fermentation was used with glucose as a cosub...

Barley developmental mutants tweaky spike (tw) with disturbed auxin pathways possess a unique feature of an increased level mouldy germinating grains (MGG), which serves as convenient model to investigate the effects plant immunity-related substances. The 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), inhibitors, salicylic (SA), and trans-cinnamic (TCA) were studied using tw-WT system in surface-steri...

Real-coded Genetic Algorithms (RCGA) attract attention as numerical optimization methods for nonlinear systems. One of the crossover operators for RCGA called unimodal normal distribution crossover (UNDX) has shown good performance in optimization of various functions including multi-modal ones and benchmark functions with epistasis among parameters (Ono and Kobayashi, 1997). The UNDX generates...
