Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Visual Object Tracking challenge VOT2018 is the sixth annual tracker benchmarking activity organized by the VOT initiative. Results of over eighty trackers are presented; many are state-of-the-art trackers published at major computer vision conferences or in journals in the recent years. The evaluation included the standard VOT and other popular methodologies for short-term tracking analysis and a “real-time” experiment simulating a situation where a tracker processes images as if provided by a continuously running sensor. A long-term tracking subchallenge has been introduced to the set of standard VOT sub-challenges. The new subchallenge focuses on long-term tracking properties, namely coping with target disappearance and reappearance. A new dataset has been compiled and a performance evaluation methodology that focuses on long-term tracking capabilities has been adopted. The VOT toolkit has been updated to support both standard short-term and the new long-term tracking subchallenges. Performance of the tested trackers typically by far exceeds standard baselines. The source code for most of the trackers is publicly available from the VOT page. The dataset, the evaluation kit and the results are publicly available at the challenge website (http://votchallenge.net).

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Cell therapy has been shown to be a key clinical therapeutic option for central nervous system diseases or damage. Standardization of clinical cell therapy procedures is an important task for professional associations devoted to cell therapy. The Chinese Branch of the International Association of Neurorestoratology (IANR) completed the first set of guidelines governing the clinical application of neurorestoration in 2011. The IANR and the Chinese Association of Neurorestoratology (CANR) collaborated to propose the current version "Clinical Cell Therapy Guidelines for Neurorestoration (IANR/CANR 2017)". The IANR council board members and CANR committee members approved this proposal on September 1, 2016, and recommend it to clinical practitioners of cellular therapy. These guidelines include items of cell type nomenclature, cell quality control, minimal suggested cell doses, patient-informed consent, indications for undergoing cell therapy, contraindications for undergoing cell therapy, documentation of procedure and therapy, safety evaluation, efficacy evaluation, policy of repeated treatments, do not charge patients for unproven therapies, basic principles of cell therapy, and publishing responsibility.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A non-fullerene electron acceptor bearing a novel backbone with fused 10-heterocyclic ring (in-dacenodithiopheno-indacenodiselenophene), denoted by IDTIDSe-IC is developed for fullerene free polymer solar cells. IDTIDSe-IC exhibits a low band gap (E-g=1.52 eV) and strong absorption in the 600850 nm region. Combining with a large band gap polymer J51 (E-g=1.91 eV) as donor, broad absorption coverage from 300 nm to 800 nm is obtained due to complementary absorption of J51 and IDTIDSe-IC, which enables a high PCE of 8.02% with a V-oc of 0.91 V, a J(SC) of 15.16 mA/cm(2) and a FF of 58.0% in the corresponding PSCs. Moreover, the EQE of 50-65% is achieved in the absorption range of IDTIDSe-IC with only about 0.1 eV HOMO difference between J51 and IDTIDSe-IC. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The N=130 short-lived isotope 223Np was produced as evaporation residue (ER) in the fusion reaction 40Ar + 187Re at the gas-filled recoil separator Spectrometer for Heavy Atom and Nuclear Structure (SHANS). It was identified through temporal and spatial correlations with α decays of 215Ac and/or 211Fr, the third and fourth members of the α-decay chain starting from 223Np. The pileup signals of ER(223Np)–α(223Np)–α(219Pa) were resolved by using the digital pulse processing technique. An α decay with half-life of T1/2=2.15(52100) μs and energy of Eα=9477(44) keV was attributed to 223Np. Spin and parity of 9/2− were tentatively proposed for the ground state of 223Np by combining the reduced α-decay width and large-scale shell-model calculations. This assignment together with the proton separation energy disprove the existence of a Z=92 subshell closure.

- Objective: To study the use of reconstructed 3D brain surface imaging (RBSI) to identify the precentral gyrus and its detailed functional distribution in epileptic patients. Method: A total of 12 refractory epilepsy cases that need intracranial electrode implantation were studied. In these patients, pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional MRI (fMRI) were conducted, and a cranial computed tomography (CT) scan was performed after electrode implantation. The RBSI was accomplished using Brain Voyager software based on MRI data, and then the 3D brain surface was integrated with the subdural electrode CT scan. The precentral gyrus was found in the reconstructed brain surface imaging according to their anatomical shape, and then were identified in the surgical field by comparing the exposed gyrus in the RBSI with the help of intraoperative photographs. Results: Total 12 cases of precentral gyrus was found and marked in the RBSI. There were 101 electrodes covering the precentral gyrus and 73 (72%) of them had motor response to electrical stimulation. In the contrast, (the area which is 1 cm ahead of the precentral gyrus), the motor response rate was 13% (17/130) (p < 0.05). During fMRI, 100% of the precentral gyrus and 58% (7/12) of post central gyrus was activated during hand movement. Whereas, no activation of the areas ahead of precentral gyrus was seen showing a significant difference between precentral gyrus and gyrus ahead. Conclusion: Our results demonstrated that using RBSI technique, it is possible to identify the precentral gyrus with precision.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE; OMIM 152700) is a genetically complex autoimmune disease. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified more than 50 loci as robustly associated with the disease in single ancestries, but genome-wide transancestral studies have not been conducted. We combined three GWAS data sets from Chinese (1,659 cases and 3,398 controls) and European (4,036 cases and 6,959 controls) populations. A meta-analysis of these studies showed that over half of the published SLE genetic associations are present in both populations. A replication study in Chinese (3,043 cases and 5,074 controls) and European (2,643 cases and 9,032 controls) subjects found ten previously unreported SLE loci. Our study provides further evidence that the majority of genetic risk polymorphisms for SLE are contained within the same regions across both populations. Furthermore, a comparison of risk allele frequencies and genetic risk scores suggested that the increased prevalence of SLE in non-Europeans (including Asians) has a genetic basis.

Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies multiple novel associations and ethnic heterogeneity of psoriasis susceptibility
- 2015

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease with complex genetics and different degrees of prevalence across ethnic populations. Here we present the largest trans-ethnic genome-wide meta-analysis (GWMA) of psoriasis in 15,369 cases and 19,517 controls of Caucasian and Chinese ancestries. We identify four novel associations at LOC144817, COG6, RUNX1 and TP63, as well as three novel secondary associations within IFIH1 and IL12B. Fine-mapping analysis of MHC region demonstrates an important role for all three HLA class I genes and a complex and heterogeneous pattern of HLA associations between Caucasian and Chinese populations. Further, trans-ethnic comparison suggests population-specific effect or allelic heterogeneity for 11 loci. These population-specific effects contribute significantly to the ethnic diversity of psoriasis prevalence. This study not only provides novel biological insights into the involvement of immune and keratinocyte development mechanism, but also demonstrates a complex and heterogeneous genetic architecture of psoriasis susceptibility across ethnic populations.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- To realize collaboration among distributed enterprises, manufacturing service collaboration on Industrial Internet platform is an efficient method. However, the low degree of participation resulted by the sense of distrust, dissatisfaction, and insecurity hinders the widely application of Industrial Internet platform. Therefore, a secure, trustworthy, and multi-user satisfied manufacturing service collaboration method is in urgent need. A blockchain based platform could be utilized to support collaboration among distributed participants to complete trustworthy transactions. In addition, in order to satisfy multiple users, there should be a suitable collaboration mechanism that allows interest-independent participants to fulfil their short/long-term expectations and guide them to a consensus. Based on the establishment of the underlying data and network layer of the blockchain, the collaboration optimization of manufacturing services based on consensus is proposed. By utilizing Memetic algorithm, both the long-term utility of providers and the short-term utility of consumers are combined to choose the optimal providers for the tasks. The providers are selected with higher satisfaction degree of consumers.

Long/short-term utility aware optimal selection of manufacturing service composition towards Industrial Internet platform
- 2019
-
Ingår i: IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics. - : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). - 1551-3203 .- 1941-0050. ; 15:6, s. 3712-3722

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- As numerous Industrial Internet platforms emerge, manufacturing services are shared among multiple stakeholders more frequently than ever. The optimal selection of shared manufacturing service composition (MSC) should both promise the task completion and the stakeholders’ satisfaction. However, as commercial entities, stakeholders concentrate on not only the temporary benefits but also the long-term acquisitions. Most of the existing MSC problems neglect the stakeholders’ prospect on the manufacturing service sharing. This leads to the disappointment and dissatisfaction of the stakeholders with long-term expectations, who will abandon the participation in Industrial Internet platform. Therefore, the long/short-term preferences of various stakeholders should be satisfied and balanced. In this paper, the long/short-term preferences of three sides (provider, consumer, and operator) are discussed. And the models considering short-term utility of a consumer and long-term utility of providers, are established. The potential tasks assigned to providers are taken into account to estimate the long-term utility if the current task is accepted. Then, to solve the bi-objective optimization problem, an improved Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II algorithm, combining Tabu search and improved K-means mechanism, is proposed to find the optimal solution set. Finally, the effectiveness of the method is verified by the experimental results in terms of solution diversity, astringency and stability, in which a finding is further observed that the changes of consumers’ preferences have little impact on the long-term utility of providers.
