There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

I and i

Machine Learning is the study of methods for programming computers to learn. Computers are applied to a wide range of tasks, and for most of these it is relatively easy for programmers to design and implement the necessary software. However, there are many tasks for which this is difficult or impossible. These can be divided into four general categories. First, there are problems for which there exist no human experts. For example, in modern automated manufacturing facilities, there is a need to predict machine failures before they occur by analyzing sensor readings. Because the machines are new, there are no human experts who can be interviewed by a programmer to provide the knowledge necessary to build a computer system. A machine learning system can study recorded data and subsequent machine failures and learn prediction rules. Second, there are problems where human experts exist, but where they are unable to explain their expertise. This is the case in many perceptual tasks, such as speech recognition, hand-writing recognition, and natural language understanding. Virtually all humans exhibit expert-level abilities on these tasks, but none of them can describe the detailed steps that they follow as they perform them. Fortunately, humans can provide machines with examples of the inputs and correct outputs for these tasks, so machine learning algorithms can learn to map the inputs to the outputs. Third, there are problems where phenomena are changing rapidly. In finance, for example, people would like to predict the future behavior of the stock market, of consumer purchases, or of exchange rates. These behaviors change frequently, so that even if a programmer could construct a good predictive computer program, it would need to be rewritten frequently. A learning program can relieve the programmer of this burden by constantly modifying and tuning a set of learned prediction rules. Fourth, there are applications that need to be customized for each computer user separately. Consider, for example, a program to filter unwanted electronic mail messages. Different users will need different filters. It is unreasonable to expect each user to program his or her own rules, and it is infeasible to provide every user with a software engineer to keep the rules up-to-date. A machine learning system can learn which mail messages the user rejects and maintain the filtering rules automatically. Machine learning addresses many of the same research questions as the fields of statistics, data mining, and psychology, but with differences of emphasis. Statistics focuses on understanding the phenomena that have generated the data, often with the goal of testing different hypotheses about those phenomena. Data mining seeks to find patterns in the data that are understandable by people. Psychological studies of human learning aspire to understand the mechanisms underlying the various learning behaviors exhibited by people (concept learning, skill acquisition, strategy change, etc.).

The organization of behavior: A neuropsychological theory

A loop antenna on top of a metal plate can provide a higher gain than that of a dipole antenna. A low depth profile multi-loop antenna geometry is proposed with a thickness of 0.02 wavelength to the back metal plate. The designed loop antenna is self-matched to the 50-ohm impedance of a source and provides a high directional gain of 8.2 dBi. The antenna gain is increased to 10.0 dBi by using a dual multi-loop geometry. Sample antennas are designed and manufactured for operating at 2250 MHz. The antennas are measured and characterized for the return loss, radiation pattern and gain. The proposed antenna can be used as a wearable antenna in wireless body area network (WBAN), in which the backside radiation is reduced and the antenna impedance characteristics are not affected by the background tissues.

Electrical stimulation of biological cells and tissues is an established technique to stimulate cells such as neurons and cardiomyocytes to enable the treatment of some disorders like Parkinson’s disease, cardiac arrhythmias, obstructive sleep apnea epilepsy, and depression. These devices use electronic circuits, batteries, and wires to transfer the stimulation signal to the target region. On the contrary, macro-scale devices such as scalp based bioelectrodes, surgical implants etc., require invasive surgery and constant fault monitoring. The use of standalone bio-compatible wireless micro-devices that can enable remote control and monitoring, powering and stimulation of cells and tissues and, deliver the stimulation therapy without additional circuits and battery, can be a significant advantage. In this paper, we introduce the concept of using magnetoelectric (ME) material composition to generate controllable electrical stimulation patterns for the Central Nervous System (CNS) stimulation therapy. We propose the potential use of ME structures in multi-modal resonant frequencies, for active stimulation. A spherical ME coreshell microdevice is designed and the Multiphysics numerical computations are used to evaluate the strain induced voltage on the device by using a remote magnetic bias and alternating magnetic field. It is shown that using the ME device in the resultant strain mode can create a sufficient voltage gradient that can potentially be used for wireless stimulation.

An efficient deep learning model that can be implemented in real-time for polyp detection is crucial to reducing polyp miss-rate during screening procedures. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are vulnerable to small changes in the input image. A CNN-based model may miss the same polyp appearing in a series of consecutive frames and produce unsubtle detection output due to changes in camera pose, lighting condition, light reflection, etc. In this study, we attempt to tackle this problem by integrating temporal information among neighboring frames. We propose an efficient feature concatenation method for a CNN-based encoder-decoder model without adding complexity to the model. The proposed method incorporates extracted feature maps of previous frames to detect polyps in the current frame. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method of feature concatenation improves the overall performance of automatic polyp detection in videos. The following results are obtained on a public video dataset: sensitivity 90.94%, precision 90.53%, and specificity 92.46%.

The propagation of molecules, ions and electrochemical signals in various cell types occurs through hundreds of gap junction channels. A gap junction channel is composed of hundreds of units which are further decomposed to hemichannels. From the computational modeling perspective, each gap junction channel acts as a state machine, switching between different permeability states at known rates. Both the permeabilities and the rates jointly depend on transmembrane and transjunctional voltages. To the best of our knowledge, the effects of the permeability states on the communication performance between cells remain unknown to-date. Here, we use the example of gap junctions between cardiac myocytes (cardiomyocytes) to model a gap junction channel as a finite-state channel. We then apply the Shannon’s information theory to compute the achievable information rates. Our results demonstrate the information theoretical limits of communication over cardiac gap junction channels. The proposed analysis is anticipated to address open-research problems in cardiac modeling, as well as in nano-networking where man-made miniature devices inter-connect with cardiomyocytes to enable novel groundbreaking applications in healthcare.
