Modifikation der enzymatischen Mutationsdetektionsmethode (EMD) zur Identifikation von Punktmutationen im PMP22-Gen nach DNA-Isolierung aus Nerv, Muskel oder Blut
… by the Enzymatic Mutation Detection Method (EMD): In case of a heterozygous point mutation, hybridisation of two amplified DNA strands causes a base pair mismatch, which is detected by the T4 Endonuclease VII. The enzyme cleaves the DNA duplex at that point. For the first time, the fragments …

Associations among Emdogain®, human oral carcinoma cells and oral proteolytic enzymes
The Enamel matrix derivative Emdogain® (EMD) is a commercially available tissue extract preparation of porcine enamel origin. Studies have shown EMD to be clinically useful in promoting periodontal regeneration. EMD has been widely used in periodontal therapy for over ten years, but the mechanism …

Multidimensional and multivariate empirical mode decomposition
… the last decade, Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) has developed into a versatile tool for adaptive, scale-based modal decomposition. EMD has proven to be capable of decomposing multivariate signals with cross-channel mode alignment. However, the algorithms for envelope identification in …

Exploration of eye movement desensitization as part of treatment of traumatic memories/post traumatic stress disorder in rape survivors in South Africa
… study documents eye movement desensitization (EMD) therapy sessions of 2 female in-patients suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as a result of rape. The literature review considers the three main approaches to understanding and treating PTSD (psychodynamic, crisis, and behavioural), …

Better embeddings for Planar Earth-Mover Distance over sparse sets
… embeddings of the Planar Earth-Mover Distance (EMD) into lp spaces. EMD is a popular measure of dissimilarity between sets of points, e.g., bags of geometric features. We present a collection of embeddings with the property that their distortion and/or host-space dimension are parametrized by …

Whole-Body Vibration and Its Effects on Electromechanical Delay and Vertical Jump Performance
… conducted to assess electromechanical delay (EMD) and vertical jump at baseline, during the 6 min rest period and immediately after the treatment and control. EMD was measured using tibial nerve stimulation and a force plate. EMD was recorded as the lag time between the initiation of …

Recognition and matching in the presence of deformation and lighting change
… retrieval. The <EM>earth mover's distance</EM> (EMD) is an important perceptually meaningful metric for comparing histograms, but it suffers from high (O(n<SUP>3</SUP> log n)) computational complexity. We propose a novel <em>linear time</em> algorithm for approximating EMD with the weighted …

Machine Descriptors of Retargetable Parallelization
The concepts and structure of the EMD framework are described in this dissertation. The implementation and use of the EMD within a parallelizing compiler framework are also described. Finally, the effectiveness of this system description framework for retargeting compiler parallelization is …

Partial discharge denoising for power cables
… the application of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) in PD denoising. Wavelet-based technique has received high attention in the area of PD denoising, it still faces challenges, however, in wavelet selection, decomposition scale determination, and noise estimation. It is therefore the first area …

Skeletal Muscle Response During the Isometric Phase of an Unrestricted Isotonic Contraction (Electromyography, Electromechanical Delay)
… lengthening during the electromechanical delay (EMD). It was subsequently used to determine elastic recoil contributions to the concentric contraction phase using a statistical model. The model was based upon the anatomical, physiological and mechanical relationships of the involved variables. …

Electric Machine Differential For Vehicle Traction Control And Stability Control
… controls. Electric machine differential (EMD) is such a concept under current investigation for applications in the near future. Reliability of a power train is critical. Therefore, sophisticated fault detection schemes are essential in guaranteeing reliable operation of a complex system …

Drivers of coastal sea level variability along the east and south of South Africa
… through the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) method. This is the first time that the EMD method has been applied to southern African tide gauge records. The sensitivity of the EMD method when dealing with data gaps was tested on artificially created gaps in monthly mean synthetic …

Lower bounds for embedding the Earth Mover Distance metric into normed spaces
… is a collection of holes in that same space. The EMD between these two distributions is defined as the least amount of work needed to fill the holes with earth. The EMD metric is used in a number of applications, for example in similarity searching and for image retrieval. We present a simple …

Acute endomyocardial disease in infants and children : the relationship between acute myocarditis and endocardial fibroelastosis
… diagnosis of acute endomyocardial disease (EMD) was made in 123 patients who fulfilled all 4 rigid clinical criteria, i.e. a short history ( < 1 month), clinical evidence of myocardial involvement (heart failure, gallop rhythm or shock), radiological cardiomegaly (CTR > 0.55), and ST/T wave …

Sublinear algorithms for Earth Mover's Distance
… of estimating the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) between probability distributions when given access only to samples. We give closeness testers and additive-error estimators over domains in [0, [delta]]d, with sample complexities independent of domain size - permitting the testability even of …

Probabilistic on-line transportation problems with carrying-capacity constraints
… a quantity known as the Earth Mover's distance (EMD), described by a fundamental problem in transportation theory. Since the existence of an unavoidable extra cost term has significant implications, e.g., for operational budgets of shared-vehicle systems, the results illuminate a phenomenon whose …
