Compound formation is constrained by morphology: A reply to Seidenberg, MacDonald & Haskell
(John Benjamins Publishing Company, 2008)Why do compounds containing regular plurals, such as rats-infested, sound so much worse than corresponding compounds containing irregular plurals, such as mice-infested? Berent and Pinker (2007) reported five experiments ... -
Comprehensive analyses of tumor immunity: implications for cancer immunotherapy
(BioMed Central, 2016)Background: Understanding the interactions between tumor and the host immune system is critical to finding prognostic biomarkers, reducing drug resistance, and developing new therapies. Novel computational methods are ... -
Comprehensive and integrated district health systems strengthening: the Rwanda Population Health Implementation and Training (PHIT) Partnership
(BioMed Central, 2013)Background: Nationally, health in Rwanda has been improving since 2000, with considerable improvement since 2005. Despite improvements, rural areas continue to lag behind urban sectors with regard to key health outcomes. ... -
Comprehensive confocal endomicroscopy of the esophagus in vivo
(© Georg Thieme Verlag KG, 2014)Background and study aims: Biopsy sampling error can be a problem for the diagnosis of certain gastrointestinal tract diseases. Spectrally-encoded confocal microscopy (SECM) is a high-speed reflectance confocal microscopy ... -
Comprehensive Essentiality Analysis of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Genome via Saturating Transposon Mutagenesis
(American Society for Microbiology, 2017)ABSTRACT For decades, identifying the regions of a bacterial chromosome that are necessary for viability has relied on mapping integration sites in libraries of random transposon mutants to find loci that are unable to ... -
Comprehensive Evaluation of Peripheral Nerve Regeneration in the Acute Healing Phase Using Tissue Clearing and Optical Microscopy in a Rodent Model
(Public Library of Science, 2014)Peripheral nerve injury (PNI), a common injury in both the civilian and military arenas, is usually associated with high healthcare costs and with patients enduring slow recovery times, diminished quality of life, and ... -
A comprehensive molecular phylogeny of tardigrades-adding genes and taxa to a poorly resolved phylum-level phylogeny
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011)Tardigrades constitute a phylum of miniaturized metazoans with ca. 1030 living species, a fossil record that probably dates back to the Cambrian, and physiological properties that allow them to live in almost any environment ... -
A Comprehensive Phylogenetic Study of Amiid Fishes (Amiidae) Based on Comparative Skeletal Anatomy
(University of Chicago Press, 1999) -
A Comprehensive Reference Transcriptome Resource for the Common House Spider Parasteatoda tepidariorum
(Public Library of Science, 2014)Parasteatoda tepidariorum is an increasingly popular model for the study of spider development and the evolution of development more broadly. However, fully understanding the regulation and evolution of P. tepidariorum ... -
Comprehensive search for topological materials using symmetry indicators
(Springer Nature, 2019-02)Topological materials have attracted much attention in the past decade. While several theoret- ically proposed topological materials have been experimentally confirmed, extensive experimental exploration of topological ... -
A Comprehensive Study of Detectability and Contamination in Deep Rapid Optical Searches for Gravitational Wave Counterparts
(IOP Publishing, 2015)The first direct detection of gravitational waves (GW) by the ground-based Advanced LIGO/Virgo interferometers is expected to occur within the next few years. These interferometers are designed to detect the mergers of ... -
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) with compressors distributed at heat loads to enable waste heat utilization
(Elsevier BV, 2013)Large scale penetration of renewable energies such as wind and solar into the electric grid is complicated by their intermittency. Energy storage systems can mitigate these fluctuations by storing off-peak energy for use ... -
Compressed air energy storage with waste heat export: An Alberta case study
(Elsevier BV, 2014)Interest in compressed air energy storage (CAES) technology has been renewed driven by the need to manage variability form rapidly growing wind and solar capacity. Distributed CAES (D-CAES) design aims to improve the ... -
Compressed Sensing for Multidimensional Spectroscopy Experiments
(American Chemical Society, 2012)Compressed sensing is a processing method that significantly reduces the number of measurements needed to accurately resolve signals in many fields of science and engineering. We develop a two-dimensional variant of ... -
Compressed Sensing for the Fast Computation of Matrices: Application to Molecular Vibrations
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2015)This article presents a new method to compute matrices from numerical simulations based on the ideas of sparse sampling and compressed sensing. The method is useful for problems where the determination of the entries of a ... -
Compressed Statistical Testing and Application to Radar
(2012-12-06)We present compressed statistical testing (CST) with an illustrative application to radar target detection. We characterize an optimality condition for a compressed domain test to yield the same result as the corresponding ... -
Compressible Quantum Phases from Conformal Field Theories in 2+1 Dimensions
(American Physical Society, 2012)Conformal field theories (CFTs) with a globally conserved U(1) charge Q can be deformed into compressible phases by modifying their Hamiltonian, H, by a chemical potential H→H-μQ. We study 2+1 dimensional CFTs upon which ... -
Compression in visual working memory: Using statistical regularities to form more efficient memory representations.
(American Psychological Association (APA), 2009)The information that individuals can hold in working memory is quite limited, but researchers have typically studied this capacity using simple objects or letter strings with no associations between them. However, in the ... -
Compressive Sensing Based Channel Feedback Protocols for Spatially-Correlated Massive Antenna Arrays
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2012)Incorporating wireless transceivers with numerous antennas (such as Massive-MIMO) is a prospective way to increase the link capacity or enhance the energy efficiency of future communication systems. However, the benefits ... -
Compressive Sensing Medium Access Control for Wireless LANs
