Parallelization of chip-based fluorescence immuno-assays with quantum-dot labelled beads
This paper presents an optical concept for the read-out of a parallel, bead-based fluorescence immunoassay conducted on a lab-on-a-disk platform. The reusable part of the modular setup comprises a detection unit featuring a single LED as light source, two emission-filters, and a color CCD-camera as standard components together with a spinning drive as actuation unit. The miniaturized lab-on-a-disk is devised as a disposable. In the read-out process of the parallel assay, beads are first identified by the color of incorporated quantum dots (QDs). Next, the reaction-specific fluorescence signal is quantified with FluoSpheres-labeled detection anti-bodies. To enable a fast and automated read-out, suitable algorithms have been implemented in this work. Based on this concept, we successfully demonstrated a Hepatitis-A assay on our disk-based lab-on-a-chip
A Frequency-Controlled Magnetic Vortex Memory
Using the ultra low damping NiMnSb half-Heusler alloy patterned into
vortex-state magnetic nano-dots, we demonstrate a new concept of non-volatile
memory controlled by the frequency. A perpendicular bias magnetic field is used
to split the frequency of the vortex core gyrotropic rotation into two distinct
frequencies, depending on the sign of the vortex core polarity inside
the dot. A magnetic resonance force microscope and microwave pulses applied at
one of these two resonant frequencies allow for local and deterministic
addressing of binary information (core polarity)
GridHTM: Grid-Based Hierarchical Temporal Memory for Anomaly Detection in Videos
The interest in video anomaly detection systems that can detect different types of anomalies,
such as violent behaviours in surveillance videos, has gained traction in recent years. The current
approaches employ deep learning to perform anomaly detection in videos, but this approach has
multiple problems. For example, deep learning in general has issues with noise, concept drift,
explainability, and training data volumes. Additionally, anomaly detection in itself is a complex
task and faces challenges such as unknownness, heterogeneity, and class imbalance. Anomaly
detection using deep learning is therefore mainly constrained to generative models such as generative
adversarial networks and autoencoders due to their unsupervised nature; however, even they suffer
from general deep learning issues and are hard to properly train. In this paper, we explore the
capabilities of the Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) algorithm to perform anomaly detection
in videos, as it has favorable properties such as noise tolerance and online learning which combats
concept drift. We introduce a novel version of HTM, named GridHTM, which is a grid-based HTM
architecture specifically for anomaly detection in complex videos such as surveillance footage. We
have tested GridHTM using the VIRAT video surveillance dataset, and the subsequent evaluation
results and online learning capabilities prove the great potential of using our system for real-time
unsupervised anomaly detection in complex videos
Learning and generation of long-range correlated sequences
We study the capability to learn and to generate long-range, power-law
correlated sequences by a fully connected asymmetric network. The focus is set
on the ability of neural networks to extract statistical features from a
sequence. We demonstrate that the average power-law behavior is learnable,
namely, the sequence generated by the trained network obeys the same
statistical behavior. The interplay between a correlated weight matrix and the
sequence generated by such a network is explored. A weight matrix with a
power-law correlation function along the vertical direction, gives rise to a
sequence with a similar statistical behavior.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication in Physical Review
