The present disclosure provides a computer implemented method. The method includes using a computer processor to perform the operations of constructing a nucleic acid mutation interaction network based upon nucleic acid pair-level interactions of a genetic sample scored under at least one disease model. The method further includes performing a thresholding and binarization process on the nucleic acid pair interactions to derive an interaction network. The method further includes testing pairs of pathways of the interaction network for either between pathway model (BPM) or within pathway model (WPM) enrichment of nucleic acid-nucleic acid mutation pair interaction. The method additionally includes outputting nucleic acid-nucleic acid mutation pair interaction data.

The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for compressing messages, such as Short Message Service (SMS) or text messages between fixed or mobile devices through communications networks. The data of, for example, SMS messages is compressed and forwarded through a communication network to an appliance having a processing unit. The appliance decompresses the message and controls its delivery through network communication devices, where the decompressed SMS message is forwarded to its destination.
摘要:
A system has an aerial image database containing sensor data representing a plurality of aerial images of an area having multiple sub-areas. A processor applies a classifier to the sensor values to identify a label for each sub-area in each aerial image and to thereby generate an initial label sequence for each sub-area. The processor identifies a most likely land cover state for each sub-area based on the initial label sequence, a confusion matrix and a transition matrix. For each sub-area, the processor stores the most likely land cover state sequence for the sub-area.

摘要:
A selective high intensity ultrasonic foaming technique is described to fabricate porous polymers for biomedical applications. Process variables, including ultrasound power, scanning speed, and gas concentration have an affect on pore size. Pore size can be controlled with the scanning speed of the ultrasound insonation and interconnected porous structures could be obtained using a partially saturated polymers. A gas concentration range of 3-5% by weight creates interconnected open-celled porous structures. The selective high intensity ultrasonic foaming method can be used on biocompatible polymers so as not to introduce any organic solvents. The method has use in cell related biomedical applications such as studying cell growth behaviors by providing a porous environment with varying topological features.

A process for producing cellular thermoplastic articles. The process comprises the steps of treating a solid parison made from a thermoplastic material with a saturating gas at an elevated pressure for a period of time to provide a gas-saturated parison; heating the gas-saturated parison to prepare a cellular parison; placing the cellular parison in a mold; and blowing a molding gas into the cellular parison to expand the cellular parison into the shape of the mold to provide a shaped cellular article.

摘要:
Cellular thin films include a first side separated from a second side, the separation of which defines the thickness of the thin film; at least one layer of a polymeric material arranged along the thickness of the thin film, wherein the polymeric material includes cells and the first and second sides of the thin film have exterior surfaces that have substantially the same thickness as the interior walls forming the cells. The surfaces of the thin films have bumps caused by the cells. The thin exterior surfaces of the thin films is advantageous to allow the films to be flexible.
