Abstract:
AbstractAimTo evaluate the impact of couch translational shifts on dose–volume histogram (DVH) and radiobiological parameters [tumour control probability (TCP), equivalent uniform dose (EUD) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP)] of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans and to develop a simple and swift method to predict the same online, on a daily basis.MethodsIn total, ten prostate patients treated with VMAT technology were selected for this study. The plans were generated using Eclipse TPS and delivered using Clinac ix LINAC equipped with a Millennium 120 multileaf collimator. In order to find the effect of systematic translational couch shifts on the DVH and radiobiological parameters, errors were introduced in the clinically accepted base plan with an increment of 1 mm and up to 5 mm from the iso-centre in both positive and negative directions of each of the three axis, x [right–left (R-L)], y [superior–inferior (S-I)] and z [anterior–posterior (A-P)]. The percentages of difference in these parameters (∆D, ∆TCP, ∆EUD and ∆NTCP) were analyzed between the base plan and the error introduced plans. DVHs of the base plan and the error plans were imported into the MATLAB software (R2013a) and an in-house MATLAB code was generated to find the best curve fitted polynomial functions for each point on the DVH, there by generating predicted DVH for planning target volume (PTV), clinical target volume (CTV) and organs at risks (OARs). Functions f(x, vj), f(y, vj) and f(z, vj) were found to represent the variation in the dose when there are couch translation shifts in R-L, S-I and A-P directions, respectively. The validation of this method was done by introducing daily couch shifts and comparing the treatment planning system (TPS) generated DVHs and radiobiological parameters with MATLAB code predicted parameters.ResultsIt was noted that the variations in the dose to the CTV, due to both systematic and random shifts, were very small. For CTV and PTV, the maximum variations in both DVH and radiobiological parameters were observed in the S-I direction than in the A-P or R-L directions. ∆V70 Gy and ∆V60 Gy of the bladder varied more due to S-I shift whereas, ∆V40 Gy, ∆EUD and ∆NTCP varied due to A-P shifts. All the parameters in rectum were most affected by the A-P shifts than the shifts in other two directions. The maximum percentage of deviation between the TPS calculated and MATLAB predicted DVHs of plans were calculated for targets and OARs and were found to be less than 0·5%.ConclusionThe variations in the parameters depend upon the direction and magnitude of the shift. The DVH curves generated by the TPS and predicted by the MATLAB showed good correlation.

Abstract:
Recently, with the popularization of camera tools such as mobile phones and the rise of various short video platforms, a lot of videos are being uploaded to the Internet at all times, for which a video retrieval system with fast retrieval speed and high precision is very necessary. Therefore, content-based video retrieval (CBVR) has aroused the interest of many researchers. A typical CBVR system mainly contains the following two essential parts: video feature extraction and similarity comparison. Feature extraction of video is very challenging, previous video retrieval methods are mostly based on extracting features from single video frames, while resulting the loss of temporal information in the videos. Hashing methods are extensively used in multimedia information retrieval due to its retrieval efficiency, but most of them are currently only applied to image retrieval. In order to solve these problems in video retrieval, we build an end-to-end framework called deep supervised video hashing (DSVH), which employs a 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) to obtain spatial-temporal features of videos, then train a set of hash functions by supervised hashing to transfer the video features into binary space and get the compact binary codes of videos. Finally, we use triplet loss for network training. We conduct a lot of experiments on three public video datasets UCF-101, JHMDB and HMDB-51, and the results show that the proposed method has advantages over many state-of-the-art video retrieval methods. Compared with the DVH method, the mAP value of UCF-101 dataset is improved by 9.3%, and the minimum improvement on JHMDB dataset is also increased by 0.3%. At the same time, we also demonstrate the stability of the algorithm in the HMDB-51 dataset.

Abstract:
Introduction: Treatment of locally advanced nasopharyngeal (Npx) cancer usually requires the inclusion of the sphenoid body or higher in intermediate risk CTV dose regions. This makes the avoidance of intracranial OAR such as temporal lobes, optic apparatus and cochlea challenging. There are different accumulating data confirming the impact of hippocampus (HC) irradiation on neurocognitive functions after whole brain radiotherapy & Npx cases were specifically addressed in several publications. The specified dose constrain in RTOG 0933 was Dmax <9 Gy. Our aim is to retrospectively evaluate the doses delivered to the HC in patients with locally advanced Npx carcinoma. Methods: Our study included twelve patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (Stage III-IVA) previously treated at NEMROCK by either IMRT or VMAT. The HC was retrospectively delineated without being accounted for in the inverse treatment planning. Bilateral HC were delineated as a single OAR, and a margin of 3 mm was added to create the HC zone. We evaluated the doses delivered to the hippocampus by conducting a dosiemtric analysis on the treatment plan already used. Results: DVH Analysis: The mean volumes (std) for PTV70 primary, PTV70 LN and PTV59.4 were 83.62 cm3 (±33.51), 119.5 cm3 (±122.66) and 1017.58 cm3 (±140.28) respectively. The mean HC volume (std) was 4.17 cm3 (±1.66). The mean HC Dmin, Dmean, Dmedian and Dmax were 6.57 Gy, 25.05 Gy, 24.18 Gy and 52.95 Gy respectively. The mean HC V5, V10, V20, V40, V50 and V60 were 92.83%, 78.95%, 55.91%, 20.37%, 9.9% and 3.38% respectively. There was no difference between IMRT and VMAT in terms of HC volumetric and dosimetric parameters. Conclusion: In locally advanced Npx carcinoma, HC is exposed to significant doses, particularly with T4 disease (intracranial extension). In view of the low radiation tolerance of HC and its close proximity to CTV54-60 Gy in Npx cases, HC contouring and avoidance should be considered.

Full text
Abstract:
This material describes parameterization of allometric functions applicable to biomass estimation of European beech trees. It is based on field data from destructive measurements of 20 full-grown trees with diameter at breast height (dbh) from 5.7 to 62.1 cm. The parameterization was performed for total tree aboveground biomass (AB; besides stump), stem and branch biomass, respectively. The allometric functions contained two or three parameters and used dbh either as a single independent variable or in combination with tree height (H). These functions explained 97 to 99% of the variability in the measured AB. The most successful equation was that using both dbh and H as independent variables in combination with three fitted parameters. H, as the second independent variable, had rather a small effect on improving the estimation: in the case of AB, H as independent variable improved prediction accuracy by 1–2% whereas in the case of branch biomass by about 5%. The parameterized biomass equations are applicable to tree specimens of European beech grown in typically managed forests.

Abstract:
Abstract Drosophila dishevelled (dsh) functions in two pathways: it is necessary to transduce Wingless (Wg) signaling and it is required in planar cell polarity. To learn more about how Dsh can discriminate between these functions, we performed genetic screens to isolate additional dsh alleles and we examined the potential role of protein phosphorylation by site-directed mutagenesis. We identified two alleles with point mutations in the Dsh DEP domain that specifically disrupt planar polarity signaling. When positioned in the structure of the DEP domain, these mutations are located close to each other and to a previously identified planar polarity mutation. In addition to the requirement for the DEP domain, we found that a cluster of potential phosphorylation sites in a binding domain for the protein kinase PAR-1 is also essential for planar polarity signaling. To identify regions of dsh that are necessary for Wg signaling, we screened for mutations that modified a GMR-GAL4;UAS-dsh overexpression phenotype in the eye. We recovered many alleles of the transgene containing missense mutations, including mutations in the DIX domain and in the DEP domain, the latter group mapping separately from the planar polarity mutations. In addition, several transgenes had mutations within a domain containing a consensus sequence for an SH3-binding protein. We also recovered second-site-suppressing mutations in axin, mapping at a region that may specifically interact with overexpressed Dsh.

Abstract:
Growing axons are exposed to various guidance cues en route to their targets, but the mechanisms that govern the response of growth cones to combinations of signals remain largely elusive. Here, we found that the sole Robo receptor, SAX-3, in Caenorhabditis elegans functions as a coreceptor for Wnt/CWN-2 molecules. SAX-3 binds to Wnt/CWN-2 and facilitates the membrane recruitment of CWN-2. SAX-3 forms a complex with the Ror/CAM-1 receptor and its downstream effector Dsh/DSH-1, promoting signal transduction from Wnt to Dsh. sax-3 functions in Wnt-responsive cells and the SAX-3 receptor is restricted to the side of the cell from which the neurite is extended. DSH-1 has a similar asymmetric distribution, which is disrupted by sax-3 mutation. Taking these results together, we propose that Robo receptor can function as a Wnt coreceptor to regulate Wnt-mediated biological processes in vivo.

Abstract:
In optimization of intensity-modulated radiation therapy treatment plans, dose-volumehistogram (DVH) functions are often used as objective functions to minimize the violationof dose-volume criteria. Neither DVH functions nor dose-volume criteria, however,are ideal for gradient-based optimization as the former are not continuously differentiableand the latter are discontinuous functions of dose, apart from both beingnonconvex. In particular, DVH functions often work poorly when used in constraintsdue to their being identically zero when feasible and having vanishing gradients on theboundary of feasibility.In this work, we present a general mathematical framework allowing for direct optimizationon all DVH-based metrics. By regarding voxel doses as sample realizations ofan auxiliary random variable and using kernel density estimation to obtain explicit formulas,one arrives at formulations of volume-at-dose and dose-at-volume which are infinitelydifferentiable functions of dose. This is extended to DVH functions and so calledvolume-based DVH functions, as well as to min/max-dose functions and mean-tail-dosefunctions. Explicit expressions for evaluation of function values and corresponding gradientsare presented. The proposed framework has the advantages of depending on onlyone smoothness parameter, of approximation errors to conventional counterparts beingnegligible for practical purposes, and of a general consistency between derived functions.Numerical tests, which were performed for illustrative purposes, show that smoothdose-at-volume works better than quadratic penalties when used in constraints and thatsmooth DVH functions in certain cases have significant advantage over conventionalsuch. The results of this work have been successfully applied to lexicographic optimizationin a fluence map optimization setting.<br>Vid optimering av behandlingsplaner i intensitetsmodulerad strålterapi används dosvolym- histogram-funktioner (DVH-funktioner) ofta som målfunktioner för att minimera avståndet till dos-volymkriterier. Varken DVH-funktioner eller dos-volymkriterier är emellertid idealiska för gradientbaserad optimering då de förstnämnda inte är kontinuerligt deriverbara och de sistnämnda är diskontinuerliga funktioner av dos, samtidigt som båda också är ickekonvexa. Speciellt fungerar DVH-funktioner ofta dåligt i bivillkor då de är identiskt noll i tillåtna områden och har försvinnande gradienter på randen till tillåtenhet. I detta arbete presenteras ett generellt matematiskt ramverk som möjliggör direkt optimering på samtliga DVH-baserade mått. Genom att betrakta voxeldoser som stickprovsutfall från en stokastisk hjälpvariabel och använda ickeparametrisk densitetsskattning för att få explicita formler, kan måtten volume-at-dose och dose-at-volume formuleras som oändligt deriverbara funktioner av dos. Detta utökas till DVH-funktioner och så kallade volymbaserade DVH-funktioner, såväl som till mindos- och maxdosfunktioner och medelsvansdos-funktioner. Explicita uttryck för evaluering av funktionsvärden och tillhörande gradienter presenteras. Det föreslagna ramverket har fördelarna av att bero på endast en mjukhetsparameter, av att approximationsfelen till konventionella motsvarigheter är försumbara i praktiska sammanhang, och av en allmän konsistens mellan härledda funktioner. Numeriska tester genomförda i illustrativt syfte visar att slät dose-at-volume fungerar bättre än kvadratiska straff i bivillkor och att släta DVH-funktioner i vissa fall har betydlig fördel över konventionella sådana. Resultaten av detta arbete har med framgång applicerats på lexikografisk optimering inom fluensoptimering.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>資訊工程系研究所<br>100<br>In recent years, due to the rapid advances in IP-based wireless technologies, consumers are able to enjoy high definition videos and mobile data services through high speed networks. Now the need for multimedia services has evolved into watching television anywhere and anytime. To meet this requirement, the Digital Video Broadcast Project, or DVB Project, proposed the DVB-Handheld (DVB-H) standard. This thesis is focused on studying and enhancing the transmission layer architecture and networking of the DVB-H software. The FLUTE network protocol is responsible for the delivery of important system information in DVB-H. To handle events of FLUTE packet loss, this thesis added a FLUTE file repair section to the protocol, enabling consistent and time-saving delivery of important system information to the client end. Another enhancement presented in the thesis is the RTSP section. Implementing the RTSP section allows efficient and error-free delivery of real-time video and audio streams to their respective application layer decoding modules and along with the video player, is able to achieve audio-video synchronization. The results from this study can be integrated with other DVB-H system reception modules into a complete DVB-H receiver system.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立高雄第一科技大學<br>環境與安全衛生工程研究所<br>103<br>Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), a phthalate derivative and a well-known environmental endocrine disruptor with anti-androgenic properties, is widely used as a plasticizer in the manufacture of polyvinyl chloride plastics. Experimental animal studies have demonstrated that several phthalates are related to anti-androgenic activity and male reproductive toxicity. Many experimental studies with rodents have demonstrated that 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) might induce aberrant crypt foci in the progress of colorectal cancer. The aim of this study is to investigate the potential effects of male rats postnatally exposed to DEHP and/or DMH on sperm functions. Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, 5 weeks old, were randomly divided into control, DEHP-, DMH-, and DEHP+DMH-treated groups. All rats were anesthetized by CO2 after 7, 10, 15, and 30 weeks of DEHP exposure to evaluate the body weight, organ weight, sperm functional analysis, including the sperm count, motility and morphology, sperm chromatin structure assay (SCSA), sperm mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), sperm reactive oxygen (ROS) generation, testicular cell DNA content distribution, as well as testosterone (TT) levels in serum. The observed differences in relative liver weights were significantly increased in the DEHP- and DEHP+DMH-treated groups as compared with the control and DMH-treated groups respectively (p < 0.05) after 7, 10, 15, and 30 weeks of DEHP exposure. The testis, kidney, epididymis weights were significantly decreased in DEHP- and DMH+DEHP-treated group as compared with the control group and the DMH-treated group, respectively (p<0.05) after 30 weeks of DEHP exposure. Significant differences were found in SCSA, MMP, ROS generation, morphological abnormality, and testicular cell DNA content distribution in DEHP- and DEHP+DMH-treated groups as compared with the control and the DMH-treated group after 30 weeks of DEHP exposure. In conclusion, exposure 500 mg/kg/day of DEHP for 30 weeks might induce sperm dysfunctions in male rats. There were no significant adverse effects of DMH exposure on sperm functions.

Abstract:
博士<br>國防醫學院<br>生命科學研究所<br>98<br>Abstract A term “bone-breaking fever” is used to describe symptoms of dengue virus (DV)-infected patients in Chinese medicine. We examined the involvement of COX-prostaglandin pathway and its significance in human DC infected by DV. We show that DV infection induced the expression of COX-2 and the production of PGE2. DV infection stimulated NF-B and kinase activities of both IκBα kinase alpha (IKKα) and IKKβ. DV infection also activated MAPKs and AP-1 signalings. Both IKKs-NF-B and MAPKs-AP-1 were upstream of COX-2 activation. Inhibitor studies demonstrate the involvement of several crucial events and molecules, including calcium mobilization, oxidative stress, tyrosine kinase, PI3K, PKC and protein kinase A (PKA) along the activation pathway of COX-2 in DV infection of DC. Different from observations in other target cells, DV-induced activation of COX-2-PGE2 pathway did not affect viral production in DC; however, it enhanced DC migration through induction of CCR7 expression which could be down-regulated by COX-2 inhibitors. Blocking COX-2 or MAPKs activity suppressed DV-induced DC migration. Collectively, the present study reveals not only potential targets to manipulate therapeutically but also potentially unanticipated benefits of COX-2 inhibition beyond anti-inflammation in the treatment of DV infection.

Abstract:
Early parent–child interactions influence children’s later linguistic, social-emotional, and cognitive development. Since deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children are more at risk for difficulties in their development than hearing children, the caregiving environment is an important context to enhance their development. This chapter describes different aspects of parent–child interactions that are related to the development of young DHH children. Parental language input, mental state language, and sensitivity are related to young DHH children’s language skills, social-emotional development, and executive functions. The chapter addresses parent-based interventions to promote DHH children’s linguistic, social-emotional, and cognitive development.

Abstract:
Abstract We revisit a generic compiler from a two-party key exchange (KE) protocol to a group KE (GKE) one by Just and Vaudenay. We then give two families of GKE protocols from static assumptions, which are obtained from the general compiler. The first family of the GKE protocols is a constant-round GKE by using secure key derivation functions (KDFs). As special cases, we have such GKE from static Ring-LWE (R-LWE), where “static” means that the parameter size in the R-LWE does not depend on the number of group members, n, and also from the standard SI-DDH and CSI-DDH assumptions. The second family consists of two-round GKE protocols from isogenies, which are proven secure from new isogeny assumptions, the first (resp. second) of which is based on the SIDH (resp. CSIDH) two-party KE. The underlying new static assumptions are based on indistinguishability between a product value of supersingular invariants and a random value.

Abstract:
Abstract In this work, we study the Wigner phase-space representation of qubit states encoded in continuous variables (CV) by using the Gottesman–Kitaev–Preskill (GKP) mapping. We explore a possible connection between resources for universal quantum computation in discrete-variable (DV) systems, i.e. non-stabilizer states, and negativity of the Wigner function in CV architectures, which is a necessary requirement for quantum advantage. In particular, we show that the lowest Wigner logarithmic negativity corresponds to encoded stabilizer states, while the maximum negativity is associated with the most non-stabilizer states, H-type and T-type quantum states.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the way song fragments function in the work of four novelists: James Joyce, D.H. Lawrence, Christina Stead, and Charles Dickens. It considers silencing, particularly of women, as an aspect of fragmentation. It shows that women have long been associated with silence, despite having a cultural stereotype of garrulousness. The chapter also determines that intertexts empower the reader due to the ‘multi-accentuality’ of cultural texts and practices.

Abstract:
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has played an important role in the discovery and design of new drugs with antitumor potential and the Pt-195 NMR has a fundamental role since the Pt-195 nucleus is very sensitive to the nature of the ligands in the coordination sphere and the oxidation state of the metal. The theoretical prediction of the Pt-195 NMR chemical shift is an extremely difficult task in which several factors must be taken into accounts, such as basis sets, electronic correlation, solvent, and relativistic effects. In an earlier study, Paschoal et al. developed the NMR-DKH basis sets and a nonrelativistic protocol for predicting the Pt-195 NMR chemical shift. The authors studied a set of 258 Pt(II) complexes and obtained a mean absolute deviation (MAD) of 168 ppm and a mean relative deviation (MRD) of 5%. However, relativistic calculations with the NMR-DKH basis sets have not been performed. Thus, the present work aims to apply the NMR-DKH in predicting the Pt-195 NMR chemical shift including the relativistic effects. The cisplatin was used as a model and its geometry was optimized and characterized as a minimum point on the potential energy surface at the B3LYP/LANL2DZ/def2-SVP/COSMO level. The Pt-195 NMR chemical shift was calculated at the DFT-Functional-DKFull/NMR-DKH/COSMO, where the functionals BP86, PBE, BLYP, PBE0, and B3LYP were tested. All calculations were carried out in NWCHEM 7.0.0 program. From the calculated results, it can be observed that the pure GGA functionals showing a better performance when compared to the hybrid functional. The best result was obtained at the BLYP-DKFull/NMR-DKH/COSMO level, where a DAM and DRM of only 34 ppm and 1.6% was found.

Abstract:
A numerical analysis has been performed to estimate the effect of thermal stratification in the safety injection piping system. The Direct Vessel Injection (DVI) system is used to perform the functions of Emergency Core Cooling and Residual Heat Removal for an APR1400 nuclear power plant (Korea’s Advanced Power Reactor 1400 MW-Class). The thermal stratification is anticipated in the horizontally routed piping between the DVI nozzle of the reactor vessel and the first isolation valve. Non-axisymmetric temperature distribution across the pipe diameter induced by the thermal stratification leads to differential thermal growth of the piping causing the global bending stress and local stress. Thermal hydraulic analysis has been performed to determine the temperature distribution in the DVI piping due to the thermal stratification. Piping stress analysis has also been carried out to evaluate the integrity of the DVI piping using the thermal hydraulic analysis results. This paper provides a methodology for calculating the global bending stresses and local stresses induced by the thermal stratification in the DVI piping and for performing fatigue evaluation based on Subsection NB-3600 of ASME Section III.
