Computational studies of semiflexible polymer translocation in nanopore systems
(2019-08-01)
The translocation of double stranded DNA (dsDNA) through nanopore systems is a field with rich physics and many promising technological applications. Double stranded DNA is not fully flexible, and the translocation dynamics ...
Image super resolution via non-local normalized graph Laplacian regularization
(2019-05-01)
Given we live in a digital age where images are regularly being viewed, posted, or utilized, spectators of such images on occasion could prefer a higher resolution perspective. The process of producing a high-resolution ...
Temperature dependent structural, electronic and optical properties of the Si(100) surface from first principles
(2019-04-01)
The results presented here were obtained using the local density approximation (LDA) to density functional theory (DFT), within the pseudo-potentials scheme. We present the results of the numerical simulations for the Si ...
Joint spatial and layer attention for convolutional networks
(2019-05-01)
In this work, we propose a novel approach that learns to sequentially attend to different
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) layers (i.e., “what” feature abstraction to attend to) and different spatial locations of the ...
Moving towards enhancing playtesting reports through data visualization
(2019-08-01)
Playtesting is a key component in the game development process aimed at improving the quality of games through gameplay data collection and identification of design issues. Visualization techniques are currently being ...
Autism Serious Game Framework (ASGF) for Developing Games for Children with Autism
(2019-12-01)
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by impaired social communication and interaction, and by restricted, repetitive interests and behaviours. The mean clinical age of diagnosis is still four to five years, ...
The development of an anesthesia crisis scenario builder for virtual reality training
(2019-08-01)
Anesthesiologists are trained in the field of anesthesia and preoperative medicine; they are required to develop anesthetic plans and monitor patients vitals. Currently, anesthesia trainees are taught using traditional ...
Impact of carbon micro/mesoporosity on the adsorption behavior of small molecules
(2019-08-01)
Adsorption studies on carbon play a key role in fields such as environmental remediation, purification, and catalysis. Because of the inherently high surface area, low cost, and inertness of activated carbons, these materials ...
Isolation and partial characterization of three members of the GGR-1 family in the parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus
(2019-08-01)
Haemonchus contortus is a blood sucking parasitic nematode that infects ruminant animals. These parasites are of significant economic importance as they are estimated to cost the agricultural industry billions of dollars ...
UniNet: A mixed reality driving simulator
(2019-08-01)
Driving simulators play an important role in vehicle research. However, existing virtual reality simulators do not give users a true sense of presence. UniNet is our driving simulator, designed to allow users to interact ...
