State-Space Equations and the First-Phase Algorithm for Signal Control of Single Intersections

State-space equations were applied to formulate the queuing and delay of traffic at a single intersection in this paper. The signal control of a single intersection was then modeled as a discrete-time optimal control problem, with consideration of the constraints of stream conflicts, saturation flow rate, minimum green time, and maximum green time. The problem cannot be solved directly due to the nonlinear constraints. However, the results of qualitative analysis were used to develop a first-phase signal control algorithm. Simula- tion results show that the algorithm substantially reduces the total delay compared to fixed-time control.

AdaBoost for Improved Voice-Band Signal Classification

A good voice-band signal classification can not only enable the safe application of speech ceding techniques, the implementation of a Digital Signal Interpolation （DSI） system, but also facilitate network administration and planning by providing accurate voice-band traffic analysis. A new method is proposed to detect and classify the presence of various voice-band signals on the General Switched Telephone Network （GSTN）. The method uses a combination of simple base classifiers through the AdaBoost algorithm. The conventional classification features for voice- band data classification are combined and optimized by the AdaBoost algorithm and spectral subtraction method. Experiments show the simpleness, effectiveness, efficiency and flexibility of the method.     

Signal propagations and linkages of subsurface temperature anomalies in the tropical Pacific and Indian Ocean

The propagation characteristics of signals along different zonal-time profiles are analyzed using surface and subsurface temperature anomalies over the tropical Pacific and Indian oceans. Analyses show that there are intrinsic relationships between El Nio events in the eastern equatorial Pacific and dipole events in the equatorial Indian Ocean. In the region of tropical North Pacific between the equator and 16°N, there is a circle of propagation of subsurface temperature anomalies. El Nio events only happen when the warm subsurface signals reach the eastern equatorial Pacific. Dipole events are characterized when a warm subsurface signal travels along off-equatorial Indian Ocean to the western boundary. From these analyses, we believe that subsurface temperature anomalies can be considered to be the oceanographic early signal to forecast El Nio events in Pacific Ocean and dipole events in Indian Ocean, respectively.     

Distributed Signal Condition System for EAST Tokamak

In order to achieve both the signal condition remote control and the work statute self-check through Ethernet,a distributed signal condition (DSC) system has been developed for control and data acquisition (CODAC) in the EAST tokamak nuclear fusion experiment.Based on differential amplifiers,analog multiplexers and the embedded Ethernet communication technology,a DSC system is designed and produced.This paper summarizes the DSC system design,and presents a kind of calibration method for it.This DSC system has been integrated into the EAST CODAC system,and used successfully in the 2008 EAST experiments.The user-friendly,high performance,and cost-effective DSC system greatly improves the work efficiency and reduces the fault rates of the CODAC system.

Signal for IL-2 internalization located in the endocellular domain of IL-2R γ subunit only

Interleukin-2(IL-2) is an important immunoregulatory factor. After the interaction between IL-2 and its receptor, intracellular signal molecules were activated and pro-oncogenes, e.g. c-Myc, c-Fos, c-Jun and Bcl-2 were induced, then cells stimulated with IL-2 would proliferate or differentiate. During these processes, IL-2 were internalized. The internalization of IL-2 mediated by IL-2R decreases the number of IL-2R on cell membranes, and makes extracellular IL-2 enter cells and degrade. It will down-regulate IL-2 biological activities. In order to identify the IL-2R subunit responsible for IL-2 internalization, chimeric IL-2Rs which consisted of different endocellular domains and extracellular domains from various IL-2R subunits were constructed. After they were transfected into L929 cell line, the IL-2 internalization was detected. Results showed that intracellular domains from IL-2R α and β subunits could not mediate IL-2 internalization alone; the signal for IL-2 internalization was located only in the endocellular domain of IL-2R γ subunit. Furthermore, IL-2 internalization extent would be affected by affinity between IL-2 and IL-2R.

Digitization and DICOM Standardization of X-ray Image Signal

Picture archiving and communication system (PACS) has played an important role in hospital and developed rapidly in recent years. It is an important part of PACS architecture that X-ray video output connects with PACS. In this paper, a method to digitize the video signals of X-ray facility is introduced. By means of the video capture card, we can acquire digital medical images from X-ray facility. The American College of Radiology (ACR) and the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) developed a standard for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM), this DICOM standard introduces a rule of medical image conversion from conventional format to DICA)M one. According to abovementioned standard, X-ray video signals can be connected to PACS easily. This project has been applied in some hospitals successfully and there is satisfied result.

Signal overcomplete representation and sparse decomposition based on redundant dictionaries

In many signal processing applications, overcomplete representations, with their benefits of small decomposition coefficient and high flexibility, have lent an impetus to signal processing theory. Traditional methods based on orthogonal linear transforms are not suitable for the multi- ple components present in natural data. For example, it is hopeless to analyze a mixture of impulses and sinusoids with such a method, because each phenomenon needs its own appropriate basis. This would be simil…
