Approximation of the Summation-Integral-Type q

We introduce summation-integral-type q-Szász-Mirakjan operators and study approximation properties of these operators. We establish local approximation theorem. We give weighted approximation theorem. Also we estimate the rate of convergence of these operators for functions of polynomial growth on the interval [0,∞)

A Polyrotaxane-based pH-labile Drug Delivery System

A novel polyrotaxane (PR)-based triblock copolymer was exploited as polymeric carrier for doxorubicin (DOX). A sample holding a feed molar ratio of Pluronic F127 to β-CD to poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) equal to 1:30:20 was synthesized via the in situ atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and then conjugated with DOX using pH sensitive hydrazone linker. The resulting PR-DOX conjugates enabled to self-assemble into nano-particles of about 70 nm in diameter in aqueous solution as evidenced by TEM. The release of DOX was varied from 10 % to 37 % over 72 h at physiological and acidic pH, respectively. The PR-based triblock copolymer without DOX conjugation showed almost non toxicity, while these nano-particles with DOX conjugation presented increased toxicity

Diaqua­bis(5-carb­oxy-2-methyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxyl­ato-κ2 N 3,O 4)manganese(II)

The title complex, [Mn(C6H5N2O4)2(H2O)2], was obtained by hydro­thermal synthesis. The MnII atom, which lies on an inversion centre, displays a slightly distorted octa­hedral geometry. In the crystal packing, complex mol­ecules are linked by inter­molecular O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. The title complex is isostructural with the corresponding cadmium(II) complex [Nie, Wen, Wu, Liu & Liu (2007 ▶). Acta Cryst. E63, m753–m755]

Differentiate Quality of Experience Scheduling for Deep Learning Inferences with Docker Containers in the Cloud

With the prevalence of big-data-driven applications, such as face recognition on smartphones and tailored recommendations from Google Ads, we are on the road to a lifestyle with significantly more intelligence than ever before. Various neural network powered models are running at the back end of their intelligence to enable quick responses to users. Supporting those models requires lots of cloud-based computational resources, e.g., CPUs and GPUs. The cloud providers charge their clients by the amount of resources that they occupy. Clients have to balance the budget and quality of experiences (e.g., response time). The budget leans on individual business owners, and the required Quality of Experience (QoE) depends on usage scenarios of different applications. For instance, an autonomous vehicle requires an real-time response, but unlocking your smartphone can tolerate delays. However, cloud providers fail to offer a QoE-based option to their clients. In this paper, we propose DQoES, differentiated quality of experience scheduler for deep learning inferences. DQoES accepts clients' specifications on targeted QoEs, and dynamically adjusts resources to approach their targets. Through the extensive cloud-based experiments, DQoES demonstrates that it can schedule multiple concurrent jobs with respect to various QoEs and achieve up to 8x times more satisfied models when compared to the existing syste

Using combination of lifting wavelet and multiclass SVM based on global optimization class strategy for fault pattern identification

This paper presents a new method based on lifting wavelet for obtaining a fast multiclass SVM classification based on global optimization class strategy for fault diagnosis of roller bearing. Decision making was performed in two stages: feature extraction by computing the lifting wavelet coefficients and classification using the multiclass SVM classifiers trained on the extracted features. Experiments demonstrate that in comparison to discrete wavelet transform the lifting wavelet feature extraction can speed up the identification phase as well as achieve higher accuracy of multiclass SVM that is based on global optimization class strategy. Experimental results also reveal that the proposed multiclass SVM of global optimization is better than strategy of one against one and DAGSVM
