151 Kerber, Richard A.A genome-wide study replicates linkage of 3p22-24 to extreme longevity in humans and identifies possible additional lociBackground: Although there is abundant evidence that human longevity is heritable, efforts to map loci responsible for variation in human lifespan have had limited success. Methodology/Principal Findings: We identified individuals from a large multigenerational population database (the Utah Populati...2012-01-01
152 Tasdizen, Tolga; Whitaker, Ross T.A geometric multigrid approach to solving the 2D inhomogeneous laplace equation with internal drichlet boundary conditionsThe inhomogeneous Laplace (Poisson) equation with internal Dirichlet boundary conditions has recently appeared in several applications to image processing and analysis. Although these approaches have demonstrated quality results, the computational burden of solution demands an efficient solver. Desi...2005
153 Von Arnim, Rudiger LennartA global model of recovery and rebalancingThis paper presents an investigation of global recovery from the great recession and rebalancing of global external imbalances, using a global model of sixteen countries and composite regions.

156 Warnock, John E.A hidden line algorithm for halftone picture representationIn exploring applications in computer graphics, one finds quickly that the representation of three dimensional objects in picture form is both a desirable and necessary capability. Applications dealing with any form of spatial design or with visual environment simulation need the ability to represen...Halftone picture representation; Spatial design1968
157 Khan, Faisal HabibA high-efficiency modular switched-capacitor converter with continuously variable conversion ratioThe multilevel modular capacitor clamped converter (MMCCC) topology overcomes the difficulties of the multilevel switched capacitor (SC) based dc-to-dc converters in high conversion ratio applications. MMCCC is completely modular and has many other advantageous features. Like most other SC converter...2012-01-01
158 Mastrangelo, Carlos H.A high-resolution flexible tactile imager system based on floating comb electrodesFlexible high-resolution contact force imagers are needed in many applications for robotic grippers and gait analysis, but its intrinsic intimate contact requirement often causes breaking of top metallization layers and failure in a short time. The use of floating electrodes has significantly improv...2012-01-01
159 Furse, Cynthia M.A history & future of implantable antennasImplantable antennas have been used for communication with medical implants for decades. This paper traces their roots from early transcutaneous inductively coupled devices to the microstrip and wire antennas in use today. A suggestion for where this technology may go in the future as medical device...2014-01-01
160 Cohen, ElaineA hole-filling algorithm for triangular meshesData obtained by scanning 3D models typically contains missing pieces and holes. These can be caused due to scanning artifacts or artifacts in the surface due to wear and tear. We provide a method based on the Moving Least Squares projection to fill holes in triangular meshes obtained during the ...Hole-filling algorithm; Triangular meshes; 3D models; Scanning2004-12-20
161 Chamberlin, Ralph VaryA hundred new species of American spidersIn this paper, we describe a hundred new species of American spiders, most of them from North America, with a few from South America. These are a part of the new species which have been accumulating in the collection of the University of Utah, as well as several from the collections of the Field Mus...1942-06-30
162 Gerig, GuidoA joint framework for 4D segmentation and estimation of smooth temporal appearance changesMedical imaging studies increasingly use longitudinal images of individual subjects in order to follow-up changes due to development, degeneration, disease progression or efficacy of therapeutic intervention. Repeated image data of individuals are highly correlated, and the strong causality of infor...2014-01-01
163 Codding, Brian F.A land of work: foraging behavior and ecologyWork is a core theme in many of the major issues and debates in California archaeology. Work is central in understanding why the first Californians entered the region (e.g., Erlandson, this volume): how thousands of years of work following colonization resulted in the overexploitation of particular ...Human behavioral ecology; Hunter-gatherer; North America: California2012-03-15
164 Mallat, ChibliA legal manifesto for the Lebanese Cabinet: Justice for Rafik Hariri and Moussa SadrLast week I pleaded for a legal manifesto for Irans Green Revolution. I am arguing this week for a judicial manifesto for the Lebanese Cabinet. I have no illusions. The turgid governmental manifesto, like the Arab Leagues declarations, will read as a litany of bullet points where each of the plet...2009-07-09
165 Kraus, Peter L.A librarian runs for political office (or Cincinnatus looks outside the Ivory Tower)Librarians have long been activists for social and political causes outside of their profession; however, few take the crucial step and actually run for political office at the local, state, or national level. In March 2014, after being involved in local and state politics for over ten years and ...2015-08-23
166 Starkey, MikeA lisp-based occam interpreterThe OCCAM programming language is an implementation of Communicating Sequential Processes and is used in a number of different areas. These areas usually require explicitly describing small-grain paralleslism.
