Radar Imaging Based on Iterative Algorithms

It has long been realized that the problem of radar imaging is a special case of image reconstruction in which the data are incomplete and noisy. In other fields, iterative reconstruction algorithms have been used successfully to improve the image quality. This paper studies the application of iterative algorithms in radar imaging. A discrete model is first derived, and the iterative algorithms are then adapted to radar imaging. Although such algorithms are usually time consuming, this paper shows that, if the algorithms are appropriately simplified, it is possible to realize them even in real time. The efficiency of iterative algorithms is shown through computer simulations.

论我国政府在反倾销中所应负的责任

应对反倾销 ,中国最重要的是法制的建设及有效之施为。针对国外对华反倾销的现状 ,国内舆论界对企业无力应对倾销与反倾销之批评有失偏颇。特别是政府部门在“入世”之后 ,重要的是“适世”及充分了解国际、国外的反倾销规则 ,并在充分尊重事实的基础上制定和健全相关法律法规及制度     

Subset threshold autoregression

We develop in this paper an efficient way to select the best subset threshold autoregressive model. The proposed method uses a stochastic search idea. Differing from most conventional approaches, our method does not require us to fix the delay or the threshold parameters in advance. By adopting the Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques, we can identify the best subset model from a very large of number of possible models, and at the same time estimate the unknown parameters. A simulation experiment shows that the method is very effective. In its application to the US unemployment rate, the stochastic search method successfully selects lag one as the time delay and five best models from more than 4000 choices.

Structure of the detoxification catalyst mercuric ion reductase from Bacillus sp. strain RC607

Several hundred million tons of toxic mercurials are dispersed in the biosphere. Microbes can detoxify organo-mercurials and mercury salts through sequential action of two enzymes, organomercury lyase and mercuric ion reductase (MerA). The latter, a homodimer with homology to the FAD-dependent disulphide oxidoreductases, catalyses the reaction NADPH + Hg(II)----NADP+ + H+ + Hg(0), one of the very rare enzymic reactions with metal substrates. Human glutathione reductase serves as a reference molecule for FAD-dependent disulphide reductases and between its primary structure and that of MerA from Tn501 (Pseudomonas), Tn21 (Shigella), p1258 (Staphylococcus) and Bacillus, 25-30% of the residues have been conserved. All MerAs have a C-terminal extension about 15 residues long but have very varied N termini. Although the enzyme from Streptomyces lividans has no addition, from Pseudomonas aeruginosa Tn501 and Bacillus sp. strain RC607 it has one and two copies respectively of a domain of 80-85 residues, highly homologous to MerP, the periplasmic component of proteins encoded by the mer operon. These domains can be proteolytically cleaved off without changing the catalytic efficiency. We report here the crystal structure of MerA from the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus sp. strain RC607. Analysis of its complexes with nicotinamide dinucleotide substrates and the inhibitor Cd(II) reveals how limited structural changes enable an enzyme to accept as substrate what used to be a dangerous inhibitor. Knowledge of the mode of mercury ligation is a prerequisite for understanding this unique detoxification mechanism.     

骨髓干细胞的可塑性及其在栓塞性疾病中的应用

栓塞性血管阻塞在急性心肌梗死、脑梗塞、血栓闭塞性脉管炎、糖尿病足等发病过程中起着重要作用。目前临床上针对这些疾病的治疗手段主要有：药物溶栓、血管旁路移植和介入手术等,多年来其治疗方法无实质性进展。上个世纪九十年代人们发现了干细胞新的生物学特性—可塑性,对干细胞可塑性的研究以及相关技术的发展为心脏病、老年痴呆、帕金森等的治疗带来了希望,也为栓塞性疾病的治疗开辟了新途径,有望成为治疗手段之一。     

论中部崛起进程中的江西教育发展战略

新时期,江西提出并实施了要在中部地区快速崛起的发展战略。在这一过程中,江西教育发展面临着极好的机遇,同时,也遭遇到了八个方面的挑战。于是,江西省委省政府提出了江西教育发展的总体要求。江西广大教育行政部门和教育工作者只要不断沿着中央指出的方向,落实省委省政府的部署,埋头苦干、扎实工作,就一定能为建设创新创业江西、绿色生态江西、和谐平安江西,为江西在中部地区的早日崛起提供有力的人才支持、知识基础和文化贡献,就一定能铸造出江西教育事业新的辉煌。
