  text: "Canny's edge detection algorithm is a classical and robust method for edge
    detection in gray-scale images. The two \r\nsignificant features of this method
    are introduction of NMS (Non-Maximum Suppression) and double thresholding of \r\nthe
    \ gradient  image.  Due  to  poor  illumination,  the  region  boundaries  in
    \ an  image  may  become  vague,  creating  \r\nuncertainties  in  the  gradient
    \ image.  In  this  paper,  we  have  proposed  an  algorithm  based  on  the
    \ concept  of  type-2  fuzzy  sets  to  handle  uncertainties  that  automatically
    \ selects  the  threshold  values  needed  to  segment  the  gradient image using
    classical Canny’s edge detection algorithm. The results show that our algorithm
    works significantly well on different benchmark images as well as medical images
    (hand radiography images). "

  text: The human Mediator complex controls RNA polymerase II (pol II) function in
    ways that remain incompletely understood. Activator-Mediator binding alters Mediator
    structure, and these activator-induced structural shifts appear to play key roles
    in regulating transcription. A recent cryo-electron microscopy (EM) analysis revealed
    that pol II adopted a stable orientation within a Mediator-pol II-TFIIF assembly
    in which Mediator was bound to the activation domain of viral protein 16 (VP16).
    Whereas TFIIF was shown to be important for orienting pol II within this assembly,
    the potential role of the activator was not assessed. To determine how activator
    binding might affect pol II orientation, we isolated human Mediator-pol II-TFIIF
    complexes in which Mediator was not bound to an activator. Cryo-EM analysis of
    this assembly, coupled with pol II crystal structure docking, revealed that pol
    II binds Mediator at the same general location; however, in contrast to VP16-bound
    Mediator, pol II does not appear to stably orient in the absence of an activator.
    Variability in pol II orientation might be important mechanistically, perhaps
    to enable sense and antisense transcription at human promoters. Because Mediator
    interacts extensively with pol II, these results suggest that Mediator structural
    shifts induced by activator binding help stably orient pol II prior to transcription
    initiation.

  text: Tonic receptors convey stimulus duration and intensity and are implicated
    in homeostatic control. However, how tonic homeostatic signals are generated and
    how they reconfigure neural circuits and modify animal behavior is poorly understood.
    Here we show that Caenorhabditis elegans O2-sensing neurons are tonic receptors
    that continuously signal ambient [O2] to set the animal's behavioral state. Sustained
    signaling relied on a Ca2+ relay involving L-type voltage-gated Ca2+ channels,
    the ryanodine and the inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors. Tonic activity evoked
    continuous neuropeptide release, which helps elicit the enduring behavioral state
    associated with high [O2]. Sustained O2 receptor signaling was propagated to downstream
    neural circuits, including the hub interneuron RMG. O2 receptors evoked similar
    locomotory states at particular O2 concentrations, regardless of previous d[O2]/dt.
    However, a phasic component of the URX receptors' response to high d[O2]/dt, as
    well as tonic-to-phasic transformations in downstream interneurons, enabled transient
    reorientation movements shaped by d[O2]/dt. Our results highlight how tonic homeostatic
    signals can generate both transient and enduring behavioral change.

    In the living cell, proteins are able to organize space much larger than their dimensions. In return, changes of intracellular space can influence biochemical reactions, allowing cells to sense their size and shape. Despite the possibility to reconstitute protein self-organization with only a few purified components, we still lack knowledge of how geometrical boundaries affect spatiotemporal protein patterns. Following a minimal systems approach, we used purified proteins and photolithographically patterned membranes to study the influence of spatial confinement on the self-organization of the Min system, a spatial regulator of bacterial cytokinesis, in vitro. We found that the emerging protein pattern responds even to the lateral, two-dimensional geometry of the membrane such that, as in the three-dimensional cell, Min protein waves travel along the longest axis of the membrane patch. This shows that for spatial sensing the Min system does not need to be enclosed in a three-dimensional compartment. Using a computational model we quantitatively analyzed our experimental findings and identified persistent binding of MinE to the membrane as requirement for the Min system to sense geometry. Our results give insight into the interplay between geometrical confinement and biochemical patterns emerging from a nonlinear reaction-diffusion system.

  text: 'Background: Drosophila albomicans is a unique model organism for studying
    both sex chromosome and B chromosome evolution. A pair of its autosomes comprising
    roughly 40% of the whole genome has fused to the ancient X and Y chromosomes only
    about 0.12 million years ago, thereby creating the youngest and most gene-rich
    neo-sex system reported to date. This species also possesses recently derived
    B chromosomes that show non-Mendelian inheritance and significantly influence
    fertility.Methods: We sequenced male flies with B chromosomes at 124.5-fold genome
    coverage using next-generation sequencing. To characterize neo-Y specific changes
    and B chromosome sequences, we also sequenced inbred female flies derived from
    the same strain but without B''s at 28.5-fold.Results: We assembled a female genome
    and placed 53% of the sequence and 85% of the annotated proteins into specific
    chromosomes, by comparison with the 12 Drosophila genomes. Despite its very recent
    origin, the non-recombining neo-Y chromosome shows various signs of degeneration,
    including a significant enrichment of non-functional genes compared to the neo-X,
    and an excess of tandem duplications relative to other chromosomes. We also characterized
    a B-chromosome linked scaffold that contains an actively transcribed unit and
    shows sequence similarity to the subcentromeric regions of both the ancient X
    and the neo-X chromosome.Conclusions: Our results provide novel insights into
    the very early stages of sex chromosome evolution and B chromosome origination,
    and suggest an unprecedented connection between the births of these two systems
    in D. albomicans.'

  text: We introduce an algorithm and representation for fabricating 3D shape abstractions
    using mutually intersecting planar cut-outs. The planes have prefabricated slits
    at their intersections and are assembled by sliding them together. Often such
    abstractions are used as a sculptural art form or in architecture and are colloquially
    called ‘cardboard sculptures’. Based on an analysis of construction rules, we
    propose an extended binary space partitioning tree as an efficient representation
    of such cardboard models which allows us to quickly evaluate the feasibility of
    newly added planar elements. The complexity of insertion order quickly increases
    with the number of planar elements and manual analysis becomes intractable. We
    provide tools for generating cardboard sculptures with guaranteed constructibility.
    In combination with a simple optimization and sampling strategy for new elements,
    planar shape abstraction models can be designed by iteratively adding elements.
    As an output, we obtain a fabrication plan that can be printed or sent to a laser
    cutter. We demonstrate the complete process by designing and fabricating cardboard
    models of various well-known 3D shapes.

  text: We report numerical simulations of membrane tubulation driven by large colloidal
    particles. Using Monte Carlo simulations we study how the process depends on particle
    size and binding strength, and present accurate free energy calculations to sort
    out how tube formation compares with the competing budding process. We find that
    tube formation is a result of the collective behavior of the particles adhering
    on the surface, and it occurs for binding strengths that are smaller than those
    required for budding. We also find that long linear aggregates of particles forming
    on the membrane surface act as nucleation seeds for tubulation by lowering the
    free energy barrier associated to the process.

  text: Using computer simulations, we show that lipid membranes can mediate linear
    aggregation of spherical nanoparticles binding to it for a wide range of biologically
    relevant bending rigidities. This result is in net contrast with the isotropic
    aggregation of nanoparticles on fluid interfaces or the expected clustering of
    isotropic insertions in biological membranes. We present a phase diagram indicating
    where linear aggregation is expected and compute explicitly the free-energy barriers
    associated with linear and isotropic aggregation. Finally, we provide simple scaling
    arguments to explain this phenomenology.

  text: In July, 2011, a 32-year-old man presented with thoracic pain radiating to
    the left arm and upper dorsum, shortness of breath, and palpitations. He had had
    upper back tension for 6 months. Medical history was unremarkable apart from moderate
    nicotine use (two pack-years). Echocardiography, electrocardiography, and laboratory
    tests were unremarkable, excluding a cardiac event. CT of the chest after chest
    radiography showed a large bulla of 16 cm diameter in the right hemithorax (figure
    A). We did not detect radiological evidence of underlying pulmonary disease. The
    bulla wall was unremarkable and no structures were seen within the bulla.

  text: We prepare and study a metastable attractive Mott-insulator state formed with
    bosonic atoms in a three-dimensional optical lattice. Starting from a Mott insulator
    with Cs atoms at weak repulsive interactions, we use a magnetic Feshbach resonance
    to tune the interactions to large attractive values and produce a metastable state
    pinned by attractive interactions with a lifetime on the order of 10 s. We probe
    the (de)excitation spectrum via lattice modulation spectroscopy, measuring the
    interaction dependence of two- and three-body bound-state energies. As a result
    of increased on-site three-body loss we observe resonance broadening and suppression
    of tunneling processes that produce three-body occupation.

  text: The goal of this work is to study the superconducting coherence length in
    the fluctuation regime in cuprate superconductors. In this work we present cantilever
    torque magnetometry measurements of micron-size BSCCO flakes patterned with arrays
    of nanometer scale rings or holes. Using ultrasensitive dynamic torque magnetometry,
    oscillations in magnetization are observed near Tc as a function of the applied
    magnetic flux threading the array. Special effort was made to detect the oscillations
    in magnetization at temperatures above Tc, where the Nernst effect and magnetization
    measurements suggest the possibility of pairing. To constrain the magnitude of
    the coherence length in the fluctuation regime, we will present the dependence
    of the amplitude of the h/2e period oscillations as a function of temperature
    and hole size.

  text: Decades of research in distributed computing have led to a variety of perspectives
    on what it means for a concurrent algorithm to be efficient, depending on model
    assumptions, progress guarantees, and complexity metrics. It is therefore natural
    to ask whether one could compose algorithms that perform efficiently under different
    conditions, so that the composition preserves the performance of the original
    components when their conditions are met. In this paper, we evaluate the cost
    of composing shared-memory algorithms. First, we formally define the notion of
    safely composable algorithms and we show that every sequential type has a safely
    composable implementation, as long as enough state is transferred between modules.
    Since such generic implementations are inherently expensive, we present a more
    general light-weight specification that allows the designer to transfer very little
    state between modules, by taking advantage of the semantics of the implemented
    object. Using this framework, we implement a composed longlived test-and-set object,
    with the property that each of its modules is asymptotically optimal with respect
    to the progress condition it ensures, while the entire implementation only uses
    objects with consensus number at most two. Thus, we show that the overhead of
    composition can be negligible in the case of some important shared-memory abstractions.

  text: Renaming is a fundamental problem in distributed computing, in which a set
    of n processes need to pick unique names from a namespace of limited size. In
    this paper, we present the first early-deciding upper bounds for synchronous renaming,
    in which the running time adapts to the actual number of failures f in the execution.
    We show that, surprisingly, renaming can be solved in constant time if the number
    of failures f is limited to O(√n), while for general f ≤ n - 1 renaming can always
    be solved in O(log f) communication rounds. In the wait-free case, i.e. for f
    = n - 1, our upper bounds match the Ω(log n) lower bound of Chaudhuri et al. [13].

  text: Set agreement is a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which processes
    collectively choose a small subset of values from a larger set of proposals. The
    impossibility of fault-tolerant set agreement in asynchronous networks is one
    of the seminal results in distributed computing. In synchronous networks, too,
    the complexity of set agreement has been a significant research challenge that
    has now been resolved. Real systems, however, are neither purely synchronous nor
    purely asynchronous. Rather, they tend to alternate between periods of synchrony
    and periods of asynchrony. Nothing specific is known about the complexity of set
    agreement in such a &quot;partially synchronous&quot; setting. In this paper,
    we address this challenge, presenting the first (asymptotically) tight bound on
    the complexity of set agreement in such systems. We introduce a novel technique
    for simulating, in a fault-prone asynchronous shared memory, executions of an
    asynchronous and failure-prone message-passing system in which some fragments
    appear synchronous to some processes. We use this simulation technique to derive
    a lower bound on the round complexity of set agreement in a partially synchronous
    system by a reduction from asynchronous wait-free set agreement. Specifically,
    we show that every set agreement protocol requires at least $\lfloor\frac t k
    \rfloor + 2$ synchronous rounds to decide. We present an (asymptotically) matching
    algorithm that relies on a distributed asynchrony detection mechanism to decide
    as soon as possible during periods of synchrony. From these two results, we derive
    the size of the minimal window of synchrony needed to solve set agreement. By
    relating synchronous, asynchronous and partially synchronous environments, our
    simulation technique is of independent interest. In particular, it allows us to
    obtain a new lower bound on the complexity of early deciding k-set agreement complementary
    to that of Gafni et al. (in SIAM J. Comput. 40(1):63-78, 2011), and to re-derive
    the combinatorial topology lower bound of Guerraoui et al. (in Theor. Comput.
    Sci. 410(6-7):570-580, 2009) in an algorithmic way.

  text: 'Asynchronous task allocation is a fundamental problem in distributed computing
    in which p asynchronous processes must execute a set of m tasks. Also known as
    write-all or do-all, this problem been studied extensively, both independently
    and as a key building block for various distributed algorithms. In this paper,
    we break new ground on this classic problem: we introduce the To-Do Tree concurrent
    data structure, which improves on the best known randomized and deterministic
    upper bounds. In the presence of an adaptive adversary, the randomized To-Do Tree
    algorithm has O(m + p log p log2 m) work complexity. We then show that there exists
    a deterministic variant of the To-Do Tree algorithm with work complexity O(m +
    p log5 m log2 max(m, p)). For all values of m and p, our algorithms are within
    log factors of the Ω(m + p log p) lower bound for this problem. The key technical
    ingredient in our results is a new approach for analyzing concurrent executions
    against a strong adaptive scheduler. This technique allows us to handle the complex
    dependencies between the processes'' coin flips and their scheduling, and to tightly
    bound the work needed to perform subsets of the tasks.'

  text: Synchronous distributed algorithms are easier to design and prove correct
    than algorithms that tolerate asynchrony. Yet, in the real world, networks experience
    asynchrony and other timing anomalies. In this paper, we address the question
    of how to efficiently transform an algorithm that relies on synchronous timing
    into an algorithm that tolerates asynchronous executions. We introduce a transformation
    technique from synchronous algorithms to indulgent algorithms (Guerraoui, in PODC,
    pp. 289-297, 2000), which induces only a constant overhead in terms of time complexity
    in well-behaved executions. Our technique is based on a new abstraction we call
    an asynchrony detector, which the participating processes implement collectively.
    The resulting transformation works for the class of colorless distributed tasks,
    including consensus and set agreement. Interestingly, we also show that our technique
    is relevant for colored tasks, by applying it to the renaming problem, to obtain
    the first indulgent renaming algorithm.

  text: Female mate choice acts as an important evolutionary force, yet the influence
    of the environment on both its expression and the selective pressures acting upon
    it remains unknown. We found consistent heritable differences between females
    in their choice of mate based on ornament size during a 25‐year study of a population
    of collared flycatchers. However, the fitness consequences of mate choice were
    dependent on environmental conditions experienced whilst breeding. Females breeding
    with highly ornamented males experienced high relative fitness during dry summer
    conditions, but low relative fitness during wetter years. Our results imply that
    sexual selection within a population can be highly variable and dependent upon
    the prevailing weather conditions experienced by individuals.

  text: Although studies on laboratory species and natural populations of vertebrates
    have shown reproduction to impair later performance, little is known of the age‐specific
    associations between reproduction and survival, and how such findings apply to
    the ageing of large, long‐lived species. Herein we develop a framework to examine
    population‐level patterns of reproduction and survival across lifespan in long‐lived
    organisms, and decompose those changes into individual‐level effects, and the
    effects of age‐specific trade‐offs between fitness components. We apply this to
    an extensive longitudinal dataset on female semi‐captive Asian timber elephants
    (Elephas maximus) and report the first evidence of age‐specific fitness declines
    that are driven by age‐specific associations between fitness components in a long‐lived
    mammal. Associations between reproduction and survival are positive in early life,
    but negative in later life with up to 71% of later‐life survival declines associated
    with investing in the production of offspring within this population of this critically
    endangered species.

  text: We present an analysis of finite-size effects in jammed packings of N soft,
    frictionless spheres at zero temperature. There is a 1/N correction to the discrete
    jump in the contact number at the transition so that jammed packings exist only
    above isostaticity. As a result, the canonical power-law scalings of the contact
    number and elastic moduli break down at low pressure. These quantities exhibit
    scaling collapse with a nontrivial scaling function, demonstrating that the jamming
    transition can be considered a phase transition. Scaling is achieved as a function
    of N in both two and three dimensions, indicating an upper critical dimension
    of 2.

  text: Fungal cell walls frequently contain a polymer of mannose and galactose called
    galactomannan. In the pathogenic filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus, this
    polysaccharide is made of a linear mannan backbone with side chains of galactofuran
    and is anchored to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol or is
    covalently linked to the cell wall. To date, the biosynthesis and significance
    of this polysaccharide are unknown. The present data demonstrate that deletion
    of the Golgi UDP-galactofuranose transporter GlfB or the GDP-mannose transporter
    GmtA leads to the absence of galactofuran or galactomannan, respectively. This
    indicates that the biosynthesis of galactomannan probably occurs in the lumen
    of the Golgi apparatus and thus contrasts with the biosynthesis of other fungal
    cell wall polysaccharides studied to date that takes place at the plasma membrane.
    Transglycosylation of galactomannan from the membrane to the cell wall is hypothesized
    because both the cell wall-bound and membrane-bound polysaccharide forms are affected
    in the generated mutants. Considering the severe growth defect of the A. fumigatus
    GmtA-deficient mutant, proving this paradigm might provide new targets for antifungal
    therapy.
