Model of human body influence on UWB ranging error by Jie HE, Ya-nan WU, Shi-hong DUAN, Li-yuan XU, Jia-hui LYU, Cheng XU, Yue QI

“…Based on UWB channel,in which human body occlusion application scenarios,the influence of human body on TOA range error by measurement and analysis of TOA ranging error was studied.The TOA ranging error model caused by single side of human body through building a suitable measuring platform and dealing with test result was established.Then Matlab software simulation was used to verify the accuracy of TOA ranging error in human occlusion application scenarios,and the influence of creeping surface wave on TOA ranging was analyzed.…”

An Expansive View of the Influence of Khidr’s Divine Knowledge for Humanity by Madison Bohacek

“…Additionally, the book presents an argument about the two types of divine knowledge originating from Islam and God, juxtaposed with the limitations of human conditions. The distinction between the exoteric knowledge represented by Moses (Law) and the esoteric knowledge represented by Khidr (divine instruction) highlights both the limitations in human access to knowledge but also human potential. …”

Human Platelets Take up Anti-VEGF Agents by B. Sobolewska, B. Fehrenbacher, P. Münzer, H. Kalbacher, S. Geue, Konstantinos Stellos, M. Schaller, F. Ziemssen

“…The uptake of anti-VEGF agents with or without VEGF treatment was investigated using immunofluorescence and immunogold staining in human platelets. The role of actin filaments and clathrin-coated vesicles in the transport of ranibizumab, aflibercept, and bevacizumab was evaluated by two pharmacologic inhibitors: staurosporine (protein kinase C inhibitor) and cytochalasin D. …”

Joint vibrotactile coding for machine recognition and human perception by Ying FANG, Yiwen XU, Tiesong ZHAO

“…In order to accurately transmit the content meaning of vibrotactile signals and achieve intelligent recognition and signal reconstruction, a joint vibrotactile coding scheme for machine recognition and human perception was proposed.At the encoding end, the original three-dimensional vibrotactile signals were converted into one-dimensional signals.Then the semantic information of the signals was extracted using a short-time Fourier transform before being effectively compressed and transmitted.At the decoding end, a fully convolutional neural network was used to intelligently recognize based on the semantic information.The difference between the original signals and the reconstructed signals based on semantic information was used as compensation for the semantic information, and the quality of the reconstructed signals was gradually improved to meet human perceptual needs.The experimental results show that the proposed scheme achieve tactile recognition with semantic information at a lower bit rate while improving the compression efficiency of tactile data, thus satisfying human perceptual needs.…”

Direct and Indirect Methods for Studying Human Gut Microbiota by V. T. Ivashkin, O. S. Medvedev, E. A. Poluektova, A. V. Kudryavtseva, I. R. Bakhtogarimov, A. E. Karchevskaya

“…Integration of the data obtained by gut microbiota studies at the genome, transcriptome and metabolome levels would allow a comprehensive analysis of microbial community function and its interaction with the human organism. This approach may increase our understanding of the pathogenesis of various diseases as well open up new opportunities for prevention and treatment.…”
