Cortical adaption influences excitability in the dominant and non-dominant hands following complex novel motor training
… has been established to be stronger in the non-dominant hemisphere of right handed participants. However, it is unclear if these differences in excitability following a training task would still be present if participants performed a task that was equally as difficult for both the dominant and …

Dominant points detection for shape analysis
… of the major methods regarding the extraction of dominant points studied so far and the metrics typically used to evaluate the goodness of the polygonal approximation found is given. Three novel approaches to the problem are then discussed in detail: a fast iterative method (DPIL), more suitable …

Target-Dominant Chinese-English Machine Translation
… of Chinese data. This thesis describes a target-dominant Chinese-English machine translation system, which can translate a given Chinese news sentence into English. We conjecture that we can improve the state of the art of MT using a TDMT approach. This system has participated in the NIST …

Molecular genetic investigation of autosomal dominant muscular dystrophy
This thesis contributes to the Human Genome Project by adding detail to the physical and genetic maps of the human genome, and by identifying a strong candidate gene for a form of distal myopathy. Genomic clones for the human skeletal muscle genes slow troponin (TNN/1), alpha actin (ACTA1), and …

Molecular genetic investigation of autosomal dominant hemifacial microsomia
… are rare familial cases that exhibit autosomal dominant inheritance. These families present the best opportunity for locating and identifying HFM mutations. Two autosomal dominant forms of this disease have been located, one to a 10.7 million DNA base region on chromosome 14 and the other to an …

Modeling Loblolly Pine Dominant Height Using Airborne LiDAR
<p>The dominant height of 73 georeferenced field sample plots were modeled from various canopy height metrics derived by means of a small-footprint laser scanning technology, known as light detection and ranging (or just LiDAR), over young and mature forest stands using regression analysis. LiDAR …

Enhancing Hex-dominant Meshes: Generation, Evaluation, and Simplification
Hex-dominant mesh generation has recently received increasing attention from researchers and the simulation community due to its robustness compared to pure hex-mesh generation techniques. However, simulation algorithms require a limited number of cell types and mesh elements of desired quality to …

Dominant negative mutants of the human estrogen receptor
… ER mutant, V364E, is also found to be a strong dominant negative inhibitor of wild type ER transcriptional activity although, alone, it exhibits transcriptional superactivity at high levels of estradiol ($\rm10\sp{-8}\ M\ E\sb2).$ We next demonstrate that co-treatment with IBMX/CT (agents which …
