Investigating the structure-function relationships of Plasmodium Haem Detoxification Protein and Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase
… proteins: (i) Haem Detoxification Protein (HDP) which has been reported to catalyse haemozoin formation in Plasmodium and (ii) Phosphatidylinositol-4- Kinase β (PI4Kβ) which plays an essential role in multiple stages of the parasite lifecycle and is a clinically validated drug target for …

Bayesian nonparametric learning with semi-Markovian dynamics
… Dirichlet Process Hidden Markov Model (HDP-HMM) as a natural Bayesian nonparametric extension of the ubiquitous Hidden Markov Model for learning from sequential and time-series data. However, in many settings the HDP-HMM's strict Markovian constraints are undesirable, particularly if we …

Evaluation of the performance of polyurethane foams in rigid pavement preservation
… In recent years, high-density polyurethane (HDP) foams were introduced on concrete pavements after their success in leveling settled sidewalks and building bases/foundations. Compared to other traditional slabs jacking/stabilization material, HDP foams are cost-effective, their installation …

Non-Destructive Evaluation and Mathematical Modeling of Beef Loins Subjected to High Hydrodynamic Pressure Treatment
High hydrodynamic pressure (HDP) treatment is a novel non-thermal technology that improves tenderness in foods by subjecting foods to underwater shock waves. In this study non-destructive and destructive testing methods, along with two mathematical models were explored to predict biomechanical …

Bayesian nonparametric learning of complex dynamical phenomena
… the use of the hierarchical Dirichlet process (HDP), one can examine an HMM with an unbounded number of possible states. We revisit this HDPHMM and develop a generalization of the model, the sticky HDP-HMM, that allows more robust learning of smoothly varying state dynamics through a learned …

The effect of introducing Basic Antenatal Care Plus and Umbiflow on antenatal care and perinatal mortality
… to hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). Strategies to detect HDP are simple, namely measuring the blood pressure, but if not performed at the right time hypertension might not be detected and a stillbirth may result. Unexplained stillbirths are thought to be due to unrecognised …

Measurements of knee rotation in vivo - Development and evaluation of an external device
… patients with habitual dislocating patella (HDP) and healthy controls. The validity of the Rottometer was evaluated by simultaneous registrations with roentgen stereometric analysis (RSA) (paper I). The two methods showed high correlations concerning the total knee rotation at 90° and 60° of …

A Model of Energy and Angular Distributions of Fluxes to the Substrate and Resulting Surface Topology for Plasma Etching Systems
… submicron feature production. In current HDP reactors, ""microtrench"" formation, sidewall slope, and charging effects play an important role in device performance. The MC-FPM has been used to examine the mechanisms, such as specular reflection and energy and angular dependence of etch …

Selection for Body Weight in Chickens: Resource Allocations and Scaling
… ratio (WAFE), and hen-day normal egg production (HDP). Although sexual maturity was delayed, the effect was more pronounced in the low than high weight lines. Selection for low BW decreased WFE, WAFE and HDP. Selection for high BW resulted in lower HDP, while WFE and WAFE were generally higher. …

Adaptive dynamic programming with eligibility traces and complexity reduction of high-dimensional systems
… especially heuristic dynamic programming (HDP) and dual heuristic programming (DHP). Moreover, a one-step temporal-difference (TD(0)) and <em>n</em>-step TD (TD(λ)) with their gradients are utilized as learning algorithms to train and online-adapt the families of ADP. The dissertation is …

Expansionary Fiscal Consolidation Revisited: Evidence from the Over-Indebted Europe
… ukázat jako expanzivní ve smyslu posílení růstu HDP. V souladu s existující literaturou se ukazuje, že soukromé investice reagují silněji než osobní spotřeba. Nicméně úspěch, pokud jde o snížení poměru veřejného dluhu k HDP, je omezený vzhledem k nízké vytrvalosti úsporných opatření. Zhodnocení …

DUPA α-Amanitin Conjugates for Targeted Prostate Cancer Therapy - Optimization and Evaluation of In Vivo Potency
… DUPA-α-amanitin conjugates were identified: HDP 30.2284 (bearing Val-Ala-PAB linker), HDP 30.2301 (bearing C6 non-cleavable linker) and HDP 30.2618 (bearing disulfide mono-hindered linker). Despite of an excellent in vitro profile, the lead SMDCs have shown only limited in vivo efficacy due …

Bayesian time series models and scalable inference
… Dirichlet process hidden Markov model (HDP-HMM), have been applied in many settings. HSMMs and HDP-HSMMs extend these dynamical models to provide state-specific duration modeling, but at the cost of increased computational complexity for inference, limiting their general applicability. A …

Phase and structural changes of nickel catalysts as a function of reaction conditions
… (OPR) and homogeneous deposition precipitation (HDP) was investigated for the synthesis in this study. OPR produced unsupported nanoparticles with a suitable size, however the occurrence of sintering during the anchoring and supporting of these nanoparticles on silica spheres, due to the high …

A metallomic, proteomic and lipidomic investigation of the malaria parasites digestive vacuole and insights into the mediators of haemozoin formation
… dissolved crystals. Haem detoxification protein (HDP), a protein currently postulated to be potent in mediating haemozoin formation in vivo, was detected in high relative abundance in the dissolved haemozoin fraction by semi-quantitative label-free proteomics. Expression and purification of …

A framework for integration of Mining Charter III for inclusive procurement, supplier and enterprise development by mining organisations in Mpumalanga province
… Charter III, historically disadvantaged persons (HDP) and numerous local trade unions are confident that the socio-economic differences will be rectified and that the Mining Charter III will be enforced. Mining organisations have had to align their current supply chain strategies with the current …

Minority carrier lifetimes in germanium on silicon heterostructures
… are needed. 25 nm crystalline Ge on Si using HDP-CVD and various RTA temperatures were characterized and compared to directly deposited poly- Ge and epi-Ge. TEM showed that recrystallization using RTAs below the Ge melting point and liquid phase epitaxy using RTAs above the Ge melting point …

Advances in Hierarchical Probabilistic Multimodal Data Fusion
… extension to hierarchical Dirichlet processes (mmHDPs) where, in contrast to the setting for LDF, we lack observation-level correspondences across modalities and the data arise from an implicit latent variable model. Finally, we develop a novel representation for Dirichlet process and HDP mixture …
