Abstract:
A majorize-minimize (MM) mathematical principle is applied to least squares regularization estimation problems to effect efficient processing of image data sets to provide good quality images. In a ground penetrating radar application, these approaches can reduce processing time and memory use by accounting for a symmetric nature of a given radar pulse, accounting for similar discrete time delays between transmission of a given radar pulse and reception of reflections from the given radar pulse, and accounting for a short duration of the given radar pulse.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to chelator compounds for chelating metal ions. In particular, the present invention relates to (thio)semicarbazone compounds and (thio)hydrazone compounds, such as PpYeT and PpYaT, which are chelators for metal ions, including iron ions. Therapeutic use of such compounds and/or their metal ion complexes, includes methods for treating and inhibiting HIV-1 replication, particularly in HIV-1 infected cells.
