The RAG proteins initiate V(D)J recombination by mediating synapsis and cleavage of two different antigen receptor gene segments through interactions with their flanking recombination signal sequences (RSS). The protein-DNA complexes that support this process have mainly been studied using RAG-RSS complexes assembled using oligonucleotide substrates containing a single RSS that are paired in tr...

A method of location fingerprinting based on the Wi-Fi received signal strength (RSS) in an indoor environment is presented. The method aims to overcome the RSS instability due to varying channel disturbances in time by introducing the concept of invariant RSS statistics. The invariant RSS statistics represent here the RSS distributions collected at individual calibration locations under minima...

This paper discusses a machine-learning (ML)based future received signal strength (RSS) prediction scheme using depth camera images for millimeter-wave (mmWave) networks. The scheme provides the future RSS prediction of any mmWave links within the camera’s view, including links where nodes are not transmitting frames. This enables network controllers to conduct network operations before line-of...

Abstract. Received Signal Strength (RSS) is one of the most useful information used for location estimation in Wireless LAN (WLAN). Most of the proposed WLAN positioning systems obtain RSS from either the Access Point or from the Mobile Device, but there are few researches that make use of the RSS obtained from both Access Points and Mobile Devices to perform location estimation. In this paper,...

In this article we present RoSeS (Really Open Simple and Efficient Syndication), a generic framework for content-based RSS feed querying and aggregation. RoSeS is based on a data-centric approach, using a combination of standard database concepts like declarative query languages, views and multiquery optimization. Users create personalized feeds by defining and composing content-based filtering...

BACKGROUND Appropriate sedation benefits patients by reducing the stress response, but it requires an appropriate method of assessment to adjust the dosage of sedatives. The aim of this study was to compare the difference in the sedation of mechanically ventilated patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy (FB) monitored by auditory-evoked potentials (AEPs) or the Ramsay sedation scale (RSS). ...

Our proposed localization system is similar to existing WiFi-fingerprint localization systems. It works by first collecting received signal strength (RSS) values of access points (APs) from different reference points in the area of interest. This initial training can be done either manually or by crowd-sourcing. The WiFi-fingerprint map is generated from collected RSSs at all reference points. ...

Amino acid sequence information was obtained for the NH2 terminus, and for endogenous peptides generated by trypsin digestion, of a purified, truncated form of rat hepatic squalene synthase (RSS, EC 2.5.1.21) (Shechter, I., Klinger, E., Rucker, M. L., Engstrom, R. G., Spirito, J. A., Islam, M. A., Boettcher, B. R., and Weinstein, D. B. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 8628-8635). Degenerate primers, ...

Received Signal Strength (RSS) is considered as a promising measurement for indoor positioning. Lots of RSS-based localization methods have been proposed by its convenience and low cost. This paper focuses on two challenging issues in RSS-based localization schemes: finding optimal localization algorithms and knowing what affects the accuracy of these algorithms. Through theoretical and experim...
