The appearance of radix-$2^{2}$ was a milestone in the design of pipelined FFT hardware architectures. Later, radix-$2^{2}$ was extended to radix-$2^{k}$ . However, radix-$2^{k}$ was only proposed for single-path delay feedback (SDF) architectures, but not for feedforward ones, also called multi-path delay commutator (MDC). This paper presents the radix-$2^{k}$ feedforward (MDC) FFT architectures. In feedforward architectures radix-$2^{k}$ can be used for any number of parallel samples which is a power of two. Furthermore, both decimation in frequency (DIF) and decimation in time (DIT) decompositions can be used. In addition to this, the designs can achieve very high throughputs, which makes them suitable for the most demanding applications. Indeed, the proposed radix-$2^{k}$ feedforward architectures require fewer hardware resources than parallel feedback ones, also called multi-path delay feedback (MDF), when several samples in parallel must be processed. As a result, the proposed radix-$2^{k}$ feedforward architectures not only offer an attractive solution for current applications, but also open up a new research line on feedforward structures.

Non-invasive quantitative assessment of the right ventricular anatomical and functional parameters is a challenging task. We present a semi-automatic approach for right ventricle (RV) segmentation from 4D MR images in two variants, which differ in the amount of user interaction. The method consists of three main phases: First, foreground and background markers are generated from the user input. Next, an over-segmented region image is obtained applying a watershed transform. Finally, these regions are merged using 4D graph-cuts with an intensity based boundary term. For the first variant the user outlines the inside of the RV wall in a few end-diastole slices, for the second two marker pixels serve as starting point for a statistical atlas application. Results were obtained by blind evaluation on 16 testing 4D MR volumes. They prove our method to be robust against markers location and place it favourably in the ranks of existing approaches.

EL matemático Bronowski ha dejado escrito que John Von Neumann era, en su opinión, el más inteligente de todos los hombres y mujeres que ha conocido. Esta opinión es muy significativa porque Bronowski ha tratado a casi todos los matemáticos y físicos importantes entre los años treintas y setentas, y sitúa en segundo lugar nada menos que a Enrico Germi, Premio Nobel y genio de la Física.

MP2RAGE has proven to be a bias-free MR acquisition with excellent contrast between grey and white matter. We investigated the ability of three state-of-the-art algorithms to automatically extract white matter (WM), grey matter (GM) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from MPRAGE and MP2RAGE images: unified Segmentation (S) in SPM82 , its extension New Segment (NS), and an in-house Expectation-Maximization Markov Random Field tissue classification3 (EM-MRF) with Graph Cut (GC) optimization4 . Our goal is to quantify the differences between MPRAGE and MP2RAGE-based brain tissue probability maps.

The function of the small-Mr Ras-like GTPase Rap1 remains largely unknown, but this protein has been demonstrated to regulate cortical actin-based morphologic changes in Dictyostelium and the oxidative burst in mammalian neutrophils. To test whether Rap1 regulates phagocytosis, we biochemically analyzed cell lines that conditionally and modestly overexpressed wild-type [Rap1 WT(+)], constitutively active [Rap1 G12T(+)], and dominant negative [Rap1 S17N(+)] forms of D. discoideum Rap1. The rates of phagocytosis of bacteria and latex beads were significantly higher in Rap1 WT(+) and Rap1 G12T(+) cells and were reduced in Rap1 S17N(+) cells. The addition of inhibitors of protein kinase A, protein kinase G, protein tyrosine kinase, or phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase did not affect phagocytosis rates in wild-type cells. In contrast, the addition of U73122 (a phospholipase C inhibitor), calphostin C (a protein kinase C inhibitor), and BAPTA-AM (an intracellular Ca2+ chelator) reduced phagocytosis rates by 90, 50, and 65%, respectively, suggesting both arms of the phospholipase C signaling pathways played a role in this process. Other protein kinase C–specific inhibitors, such as chelerythrine and bisindolylmaleimide I, did not reduce phagocytosis rates in control cells, suggesting calphostin C was affecting phagocytosis by interfering with a protein containing a diacylglycerol-binding domain. The addition of calphostin C did not reduce phagocytosis rates in Rap1 G12T(+) cells, suggesting that the putative diacylglycerol-binding protein acted upstream in a signaling pathway with Rap1. Surprisingly, macropinocytosis was significantly reduced in Rap1 WT(+) and Rap1 G12T(+) cells compared with control cells. Together our results suggest that Rap1 and Ca2+ may act together to coordinate important early events regulating phagocytosis.
