Text Mining for Systems Biology and MetNet
The rapidly expanding volume of biological and biomedical literature motivates demand for more friendly access. Better automated mining of this literature can help find useful and desired citations and can extract new knowledge from the massive biological literaturome. The research objectives presented here, when met, will provide comprehensive text mining utilities within the MetNet (Metabolic Network Exchange) (Wurtele et al., 2007), platform to help biologists visualize, explore, and analyze the biological literaturome. The overarching research question to be addressed is how to automatically extract biomolecular interactions from numerous biomedical texts. Here are the specific aims of this work.
1. Research on the text empirics of interaction-indicating terms to find more clues to improve the current algorithm applied in PathBinder to more precisely judge whether biomolecular interaction descriptions are present in sentences from the biological literature.
2. Based on these research results, extract interacting biomolecule pairs from literature and use those pairs to construct a biomolecule interaction database and network.
3. Integrate biomolecular interaction-indicating term extraction into MetNet\u27s existing metabolomic network database.
4. Apply all of the above results in PathBinder software.
5. Quantitatively evaluate the success of algorithms developed based on the text empirics results.
This work is expected to advance systems biology by answering scientific questions about biological text empirics, by contributing to the engineering task of building MetNet and key constituent subsystems of MetNet, and by supporting the MetNet project through selected maintenance tasks
The Capacity Region of the Source-Type Model for Secret Key and Private Key Generation
The problem of simultaneously generating a secret key (SK) and private key
(PK) pair among three terminals via public discussion is investigated, in which
each terminal observes a component of correlated sources. All three terminals
are required to generate a common secret key concealed from an eavesdropper
that has access to public discussion, while two designated terminals are
required to generate an extra private key concealed from both the eavesdropper
and the remaining terminal. An outer bound on the SK-PK capacity region was
established in [1], and was shown to be achievable for one case. In this paper,
achievable schemes are designed to achieve the outer bound for the remaining
two cases, and hence the SK-PK capacity region is established in general. The
main technique lies in the novel design of a random binning-joint decoding
scheme that achieves the existing outer bound.Comment: 20 pages, 4 figure
Precise Phase Transition of Total Variation Minimization
Characterizing the phase transitions of convex optimizations in recovering
structured signals or data is of central importance in compressed sensing,
machine learning and statistics. The phase transitions of many convex
optimization signal recovery methods such as minimization and nuclear
norm minimization are well understood through recent years' research. However,
rigorously characterizing the phase transition of total variation (TV)
minimization in recovering sparse-gradient signal is still open. In this paper,
we fully characterize the phase transition curve of the TV minimization. Our
proof builds on Donoho, Johnstone and Montanari's conjectured phase transition
curve for the TV approximate message passing algorithm (AMP), together with the
linkage between the minmax Mean Square Error of a denoising problem and the
high-dimensional convex geometry for TV minimization.Comment: 6 page
Development of Finger Touch Position Detection System Methods Using Single Camera
We propose a new image processing-based finger touch position detection sensing method using a reflected image reflected on the screen. Using single camera by image processing to detect touch position has several significant advantages: (1) Installation of camera becomes easily (2) This system can reduce the failure rate to realize maintenance free operation. (2) This approach enables easy attachment and low-cost touch sensing. The problem when using single camera is impossible to detect the depth of the finger from capture image. In order to solve this problem, we use the reflected image of the finger appears on the screen. Detecting the fingertip and the reflected image on the screen effectively, we enable to detect touch position only using single camera. In this paper, we provide concrete method to extract fingertip and reflected image, implementation details, results of evaluation experiment, and outline future works.The 2nd International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Image Processing 2014, Nishinippon Institute of Technology, Kitakyushu, Japan, September 26-29, 201

Research of Energy Substitution Strategy of China
AbstractFor a long time, China's energy endowment structure determines the production structure and consumption structure of energy are coal-based.This situation is difficult to change for quite a long time. With the rapid economic growth, industrialization and urbanization, the demand for energy, especially for oil, natural gas will continue to increase. But the oil and gas supply can not meet the needs of rapid growth. The most direct way is to import, and imports will be charged by the international energy situation, and will affect energy and economic security. In view of our country abundant coal resources, we can consider to use coal substituting oil and natural gas to reduce dependence on foreign energy, to strengthen energy and economic security. Therefore, using translog production function, the text forecasts substitution elasticity and the marginal substitution rate between the capital, coal, oil and natural gas, and puts forward substitution program
