We study spatio-temporal pattern formation in a ring of N oscillators with inhibitory unidirectional pulselike interactions. The attractors of the dynamics are limit cycles where each oscillator fires once and only once. Since some of these limit cycles lead to the same pattern, we introduce the concept of pattern degeneracy to take it into account. Moreover, we give a qualitative estimation of the volume of the basin of attraction of each pattern by means of some probabilistic arguments and pattern degeneracy, and show how they are modified as we change the value of the coupling strength. In the limit of small coupling, our estimative formula gives a pefect agreement with numerical simulations.

We describe the use of dynamic combinatorial chemistry (DCC) to identify ligands for the stem-loop structure located at the exon 10-5'-intron junction of Tau pre-mRNA, which is involved in the onset of several tauopathies including frontotemporal dementia with Parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17). A series of ligands that combine the small aminoglycoside neamine and heteroaromatic moieties (azaquinolone and two acridines) have been identified by using DCC. These compounds effectively bind the stem-loop RNA target (the concentration required for 50% RNA response (EC(50)): 2-58 μM), as determined by fluorescence titration experiments. Importantly, most of them are able to stabilize both the wild-type and the +3 and +14 mutated sequences associated with the development of FTDP-17 without producing a significant change in the overall structure of the RNA (as analyzed by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy), which is a key factor for recognition by the splicing regulatory machinery. A good correlation has been found between the affinity of the ligands for the target and their ability to stabilize the RNA secondary structure.

Although increasing our knowledge of the properties of networks of cities is essential, these properties can be measured at the city level, and must be assessed by analyzing actor networks. The present volume focuses less on individual characteristics and more on the interactions of actors and institutions that create functional territories in which the structure of existing links constrains emerging links. Rather than basing explanations on external factors, the goal is to determine the extent to which network properties reflect spatial distributions and create local synergies at the meso level that are incorporated into global networks at the macro level where different geographical scales occur. The paper introduces the way to use the graphs structure to identify empirically relevant groups and levels that explain dynamics. It defines what could be called âeurooemulti-levelâeuro, âeurooemulti-scaleâeuro, or âeurooemultidimensionalâeuro networks in the context of urban geography. It explains how the convergence of the network multi-territoriality paradigm collaboratively formulated, and manipulated by geographers and computer scientists produced the SPANGEO project, which is exposed in this volume.

Introducción: La preeclampsia/eclampsia es una enfermedad del embarazo que puede producir cambios en el estado emocional de la mujer por su prolongado ingreso hospitalario. Objetivo: Conocer las experiencias vividas por las mujeres con preeclampsia/eclampsia durante el ingreso hospitalario. Los objetivos que se tendrán en cuenta serán conocer cómo se modifica el rol propio dentro de la organización familiar, conocer cómo impacta su ingreso respecto a suestado emocional, conocer cómo les afecta la estructura de la unidad a su estado emocional y conocer qué necesidades y/o cuidados terapéuticos reciben respeto al equipo sanitario. Ámbito: El estudio se realizará en el Hospital de la Vall d’ Hebrón de Barcelona. Metodología: Estudio fenomenológico. La muestra se escogerá intencionadamente que cumplirá con los criterios de inclusión (mujeres ingresadas por preeclampsia/eclampsia en launidad de materno infantil de la Vall d’ Hebrón de Barcelona), y se terminará hasta llegar al nivel de saturación teórico. Los datos se recogerán a través de entrevistas semi-estructuradas y de la observación participante. Consideraciones finales: Dada la baja incidencia que existe tanto a nivel nacional como internacional en estudios de este tipo, un estudio cualitativo que ayude a conocer las experiencias de las mujeres ingresadas por preeclampsia podría ayudar a mejorar la calidad y práctica asistencial enfermera.

Context: Ovarian tumors (OT) typing is a competency expected from pathologists, with significant clinical implications. OT however come in numerous different types, some rather rare, with the consequence of few opportunities for practice in some departments. Aim: Our aim was to design a tool for pathologists to train in less common OT typing. Method and Results: Representative slides of 20 less common OT were scanned (Nano Zoomer Digital Hamamatsu®) and the diagnostic algorithm proposed by Young and Scully applied to each case (Young RH and Scully RE, Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology 2001, 18: 161-235) to include: recognition of morphological pattern(s); shortlisting of differential diagnosis; proposition of relevant immunohistochemical markers. The next steps of this project will be: evaluation of the tool in several post-graduate training centers in Europe and Québec; improvement of its design based on evaluation results; diffusion to a larger public. Discussion: In clinical medicine, solving many cases is recognized as of utmost importance for a novice to become an expert. This project relies on the virtual slides technology to provide pathologists with a learning tool aimed at increasing their skills in OT typing. After due evaluation, this model might be extended to other uncommon tumors.

In the plant-beneficial bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens CHA0, the expression of antifungal exoproducts is controlled by the GacS/GacA two-component system. Two RNA binding proteins (RsmA, RsmE) ensure effective translational repression of exoproduct mRNAs. At high cell population densities, GacA induces three small RNAs (RsmX, RsmY, RsmZ) which sequester both RsmA and RsmE, thereby relieving translational repression. Here we systematically analyse the features that allow the RNA binding proteins to interact strongly with the 5' untranslated leader mRNA of the P. fluorescens hcnA gene (encoding hydrogen cyanide synthase subunit A). We obtained evidence for three major RsmA/RsmE recognition elements in the hcnA leader, based on directed mutagenesis, RsmE footprints and toeprints, and in vivo expression data. Two recognition elements were found in two stem-loop structures whose existence in the 5' leader region was confirmed by lead(II) cleavage analysis. The third recognition element, which overlapped the hcnA Shine-Dalgarno sequence, was postulated to adopt either an open conformation, which would favour ribosome binding, or a stem-loop structure, which may form upon interaction with RsmA/RsmE and would inhibit access of ribosomes. Effective control of hcnA expression by the Gac/Rsm system appears to result from the combination of the three appropriately spaced recognition elements.

Yrityksen sisäisten rajapintojen tunteminen mahdollistaa tiedonvaihdon hallinnan läpi organisaation. Idean muokkaaminen kannattavaksi innovaatioksi edellyttää organisaation eri osien läpi kulkevaa saumatonta prosessiketjua sekä tietovirtaa. Tutkielman tavoitteena oli mallintaa organisaation kahden toiminnallisesti erilaisen osan välinen tiedon vaihto. Tiedon vaihto kuvattiin rajapintana, tietoliittymänä. Kolmiulotteinen organisaatiomalli muodosti tutkimuksen pääteorian. Se kytkettiin yrityksen tuotanto- ja myyntiosiin, kuten myös BestServ-projektin kehittämään uuteen palvelujen kehittämisen prosessiin. Uutta palvelujen kehittämisen prosessia laajennettiin ISO/IEC 15288 standardin kuvaamalla prosessimallilla. Yritysarkkitehtuurikehikoita käytettiin mallintamisen perustana. Tietoliittymä nimenä kuvastaa näkemystä siitä, että tieto [tietämys] on olemukseltaan yksilöiden tai ryhmien välistä. Mallinnusmenetelmät eivät kuitenkaan vielä mahdollista tietoon [tietämykseen] liittyvien kaikkien ominaisuuksien mallintamista. Tietoliittymän malli koostuu kolmesta osasta, joista kaksi esitetään graafisessa muodossa ja yksi taulukkona. Mallia voidaan käyttää itsenäisesti tai osana yritysarkkitehtuuria. Teollisessa palveluliiketoiminnassa sekä tietoliittymän mallinnusmenetelmä että sillä luotu malli voivat auttaa konepajateollisuuden yritystä ymmärtämään yrityksen kehittämistarpeet ja -kohteet, kun se haluaa palvelujen tuottamisella suuremman roolin asiakasyrityksen liiketoiminnassa. Tietoliittymän mallia voidaan käyttää apuna organisaation tietovarannon ja tietämyksen mallintamisessa sekä hallinnassa ja näin pyrkiä yhdistämään ne yrityksen strategiaa palvelevaksi kokonaisuudeksi. Tietoliittymän mallinnus tarjoaa tietojohtamisen kauppatieteelliselle tutkimukselle menetelmällisyyden tutkia innovaatioiden hallintaa sekä organisaation uudistumiskykyä. Kumpikin tutkimusalue tarvitsevat tarkempaa tietoa ja mahdollisuuksia hallita tietovirtoja, tiedon vaihtoa sekä organisaation tietovarannon käyttöä.

The term "sound object" describes an auditory experience that is associated with an acoustic event produced by a sound source. In natural settings, a sound produced by a living being or an object provides information about the identity and the location of the sound source. Sound's identity is orocessed alono the ventral "What" pathway which consists of regions within the superior and middle temporal cortices as well as the inferior frontal gyrus. This work concerns the creation of individual auditory object representations in narrow semantic categories and their plasticity using electrical imaging. Discrimination of sounds from broad category has been shown to occur along a temporal hierarchy and in different brain regions along the ventral "What" pathway. However, sounds belonging to the same semantic category, such as faces or voices, were shown to be discriminated in specific brain areas and are thought to represent a special class of stimuli. I have investigated how cortical representations of a narrow category, here birdsongs, is modulated by training novices to recognized songs of individual bird species. Dynamic analysis of distributed source estimations revealed differential sound object representations within the auditory ventral "What" pathway as a function of the level of expertise newly acquired. Correct recognition of trained items induces a sharpening within a left-lateralized semantic network starting around 200ms, whereas untrained items' processing occurs later in lower-level and memory-related regions. With another category of sounds belonging to the same category, here heartbeats, I investigated the cortical representations of correct and incorrect recognition of sounds. Source estimations revealed differential representations partially overlapping with regions involved in the semantic network that is activated when participants became experts in the task. Incorrect recognition also induces a higher activation when compared to correct recognition in regions processing lower-level features. The discrimination of heartbeat sounds is a difficult task and requires a continuous listening. I investigated whether the repetition effects are modulated by participants' behavioral performance. Dynamic source estimations revealed repetition suppression in areas located outside of the semantic network. Therefore, individual environmental sounds become meaningful with training. Their representations mainly involve a left-lateralized network of brain regions that are tuned with expertise, as well as other brain areas, not related to semantic processing, and occurring in early stages of semantic processing. -- Le terme objet sonore" décrit une expérience auditive associée à un événement acoustique produit par une source sonore. Dans l'environnement, un son produit par un être vivant ou un objet fournit des informations concernant l'identité et la localisation de la source sonore. Les informations concernant l'identité d'un son sont traitée le long de la voie ventrale di "Quoi". Cette voie est composée de regions situées dans le cortex temporal et frontal. L'objet de ce travail est d'étudier quels sont les neuro-mecanismes impliqués dans la représentation de nouveaux objets sonores appartenant à une meme catégorie sémantique ainsi que les phénomènes de plasticité à l'aide de l'imagerie électrique. Il a été montré que la discrimination de sons appartenant à différentes catégories sémantiques survient dans différentes aires situées le long la voie «Quoi» et suit une hiérarchie temporelle II a également été montré que la discrimination de sons appartenant à la même catégorie sémantique tels que les visages ou les voix, survient dans des aires spécifiques et représenteraient des stimuli particuliers. J'ai étudié comment les représentations corticales de sons appartenant à une même catégorie sémantique, dans ce cas des chants d'oiseaux, sont modifiées suite à un entraînement Pour ce faire, des sujets novices ont été entraînés à reconnaître des chants d'oiseaux spécifiques L'analyse des estimations des sources neuronales au cours du temps a montré que les representations des objets sonores activent de manière différente des régions situées le long de la vo,e ventrale en fonction du niveau d'expertise acquis grâce à l'entraînement. La reconnaissance des chants pour lesquels les sujets ont été entraînés implique un réseau sémantique principalement situé dans l'hémisphère gauche activé autour de 200ms. Au contraire, la reconnaissance des chants pour lesquels les sujets n'ont pas été entraînés survient plus tardivement dans des régions de plus bas niveau. J'ai ensuite étudié les mécanismes impliqués dans la reconnaissance et non reconnaissance de sons appartenant à une autre catégorie, .es battements de coeur. L'analyse des sources neuronales a montre que certaines régions du réseau sémantique lié à l'expertise acquise sont recrutées de maniere différente en fonction de la reconnaissance ou non reconnaissance du son La non reconnaissance des sons recrute des régions de plus bas niveau. La discrimination des bruits cardiaques est une tâche difficile et nécessite une écoute continue du son. J'ai étudié l'influence des réponses comportementales sur les effets de répétitions. L'analyse des sources neuronales a montré que la reconnaissance ou non reconnaissance des sons induisent des effets de repétition différents dans des régions situées en dehors des aires du réseau sémantique. Ainsi, les sons acquièrent un sens grâce à l'entraînement. Leur représentation corticale implique principalement un réseau d'aires cérébrales situé dans l'hémisphère gauche, dont l'activité est optimisée avec l'acquisition d'un certain niveau d'expertise, ainsi que d'autres régions qui ne sont pas liée au traitement de l'information sémantique. L'activité de ce réseau sémantique survient plus rapidemement que la prédiction par le modèle de la hiérarchie temporelle.

This thesis in caring science didactics is based on a thinking, where the fundamental basis for the didactic is science-based, i.e. it does not emanate from the nursing profession but brings forward a didactic that grows out of caring science and its core substance and ethos. This view on didactics arises from the caritative theory developed by Eriksson. The overall aim of the study is to clarify the meaning and essence of understanding, as well as to explore and deepen the understanding of student nurses' processes of understanding and becoming with the intention of developing a theory model for caring didactics. The overarching research questions are: What is the essence of understanding (of caring science knowledge)? What are the possibilities and importance of understanding in the appropriation of caring science? What characterizes and impels the process of becoming? The thesis consists of four sub studies and a summary section. The overall methodological approach is hermeneutic involving quantitative as well as qualitative methods. The data for the study has been collected through a longitudinal research project that followed student nurses at three universities during their entire education. The empirical sub studies form the basis for the interpreted knowledge that is formulated in the new understanding. This new understanding have, through additional theory-charging with the theory fragments from Gadamer, generated the heuristic synthesis which is illustrated in the theory model. The findings shows that understanding can be described as something unlimited, as an endless movement, which can be illustrated as a lying eighth, a lemniscate. The lemiscate of understanding is characterized by seeing, knowing and becoming and consists of seven differently named phases; the acquired horizon of understanding, the encounter of horizons, the dialogue of horizons, the fusion of horizons, application, reflection and shaping a new horizon of understanding. Bildung (formation), is the ultimate imprint of the endless spiral movement of understanding. Ethos and arête constitute the hubs around which the lemniscate of understanding circles. These include the spirit and driving force that the student carries within. The caring culture encloses the lemniscate of understanding. The caring culture provides the life space of understanding and the prevailing basic values are evinced in the culture.

The problem of automatic recognition of the fish from the video sequences is discussed in this Master’s Thesis. This is a very urgent issue for many organizations engaged in fish farming in Finland and Russia because the process of automation control and counting of individual species is turning point in the industry. The difficulties and the specific features of the problem have been identified in order to find a solution and propose some recommendations for the components of the automated fish recognition system. Methods such as background subtraction, Kalman filtering and Viola-Jones method were implemented during this work for detection, tracking and estimation of fish parameters. Both the results of the experiments and the choice of the appropriate methods strongly depend on the quality and the type of a video which is used as an input data. Practical experiments have demonstrated that not all methods can produce good results for real data, whereas on synthetic data they operate satisfactorily.

The chemical composition of apple juices may be used to discriminate between the varieties for consumption and those for raw material. Fuji and Gala have a chemical pattern that can be used for this classification. Multivariate methods correlate independent continuous chemical descriptors with the categorical apple variety. Three main descriptors of apple juice were selected: malic acid, total reducing sugar and total phenolic compounds. A chemometric approach, employing PCA and SIMCA, was used to classify apple juice samples. PCA was performed with 24 juices from Fuji and Gala, and SIMCA, with 15 juices. The exploratory and predictive models recognized 88% and 64%, respectively, as belonging to a mixed domain. The apple juice from commercial fruits shows a pattern related to cv. Fuji and Gala with boundaries from 0.18 to 0.389 g.100 mL-1 (malic acid), from 8.65 to 15.18 g.100 mL-1 (total reducing sugar) and from 100 to 400 mg.L-1 (total phenolic compounds), but such boundaries were slightly shorter in the remaining set of commercial apple juices, specifically from 0.16 to 0.36 g.100 mL-1, from 9.25 to 15.5 g.100 mL-1 and from 180 to 606 mg.L-1 for acidity, reducing sugar and phenolic compounds, respectively, representing the acid, sweet and bitter tastes.
